  Great little hotel. Perfect location within walking distance of just about everything.

  16 Apr 2026

  Perfect location right in the Plaka. Nice family run hotel. Great value for the price. Clean and friendly. The room was tiny but had everything we needed. We opted for the economy room so I cannot speak for the other rooms.

  Just to rest couple of hours and leave

  16 Mar 2026

  This hotel it is just to crash for couple of hours at night and then leave, it was not really clean or took care of the inside. Restroom was really really small 2 persons cannot be at the same tim. Heating was not working and it was a bit cold as it was also a rainy day. The elevetor and stairs are so tiny I have never seen such an elevator or stairs. This hotel it is not for family or long vacation. The price for the quality it is high. it should be at least half of what it is now. On the other hand the location is fabulous, it is in the center and everything is close to it but if you want to have locationa and quality of stay it is not your choice. Konstantinos Tsiaktanis, Γενικός Διευθυντής at Hotel Metropolis, responded to this review Thank you for your review.We are sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations. As you mentioned, our hotel is a historic, centrally located building with smaller rooms and amenities, which is reflected in our pricing.We are glad that you appreciated our excellent location, ideal for those who want to be in the heart of the city. Our team strives to keep the rooms clean and functional, and we are happy to assist with any request or need during your stay.We hope you will give us the opportunity to welcome you again, so you can enjoy a more complete experience.

  Romantic Acropolis Views in a Perfect Location

  11 Mar 2026

  My stay at this hotel was truly a very pleasant experience. The place has a charming, cozy, and family-like atmosphere that makes you feel welcome from the very beginning.The hotel is very clean, and the room was extremely comfortable – perfect for resting after a full day of exploring the city.One of the highlights is the view of the Acropolis, which adds a wonderful romantic touch, especially in the evening when it is beautifully illuminated.The location is also very convenient for discovering Athens and walking around the area.I would happily return here during my next visit to Athens.

  An excellent hotel in a superb location

  27 Nov 2025

  We loved this family-run hotel! Superb location within walking distance of the Acropolis, Contemporary Art Gallery, parks, shops, restaurant, no end of museums—too much to see in the short time we were there. Our room was comfy but smaller than some rooms, but it had a balcony with an excellent view of the Acropolis. The roof-top terrace was a great place to have breakfast in the sunshine, and the cooked breakfast (eggs, bacon, toast) was wonderful. Olives, honey and yogurt, too! No bar, but in the afternoon or evening guests were free to take a bottle of wined snacks to the terrace. The staff were friendly, especially the owner. And the tiny elevator (be warned: it's VERY tiny) was interesting in that one of the walls was open. Don't lean against it, or you'll feel the building sliding behind your back.I'd recommend this hotel to anyone. But be careful if you're taking a cab from the airport. Give the driver the address, because there's another hotel with a similar name (at a much higher price). Our friends were dropped off there when they arrived late one night and had to walk several blocks to the correct Metropolis.Another thing to note: the Cathedral rings the hour and half hour 24/7. So if you're a light sleeper, take good ear plugs. Or enjoy the bells. We loved them! Konstantinos T, at Hotel Metropolis, responded to this review Thank you so much for your reviewWe are so happy to see you have enjoyed your stay with us and made the most of our central location, there is really so much to explore within walking distance, and we are happy it added to your experience.It is also great to hear that you loved the Acropolis view from your balcony and the breakfast on the rooftop terrace. We are glad our team (and even our tiny, quirky elevator!) left a positive impression.Thank you for sharing helpful tips for future guests regarding airport taxis and the nearby Cathedral bells your information is truly appreciated.We are grateful for your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another stay.

  Centrally located hotel

  08 Nov 2025

  Steps from pavement lobby to access the lift. We had the family room with lovely acropolis view terrace. Room could do with an upgrade though beds were comfortable. Bathroom again could do with sprucing up though everything worked. 5 min walk from airport bus stop in Syntagma square. Took about 50 mins and cost 6.50€. Good breakfast for an extra?€7.50 - omelette freshly cooked with bacon , toaster, ham cheese coffee, tea, juice. Very centrally located. Konstantinos T, at Hotel Metropolis, responded to this review Dear Keswick7b,Thank you so much for taking the time to share your review.

It is also wonderful to know that you found the beds comfortable and that you have enjoyed our breakfast with freshly cooked omelettes.We really appreciate your comments about the room and bathroom, feedback means a lot to us, and we’re always working on small improvements to make our guests feel even more at home.It was a pleasure having you stay with us, and we really hope to welcome you back on your next visit to Athens.Best regards,K.
