Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Dated interiors — The hotel is older and the decor and installations are not modern, though cleanliness makes up for it.
  • Simple breakfast — Breakfast is basic – adequate rather than lavish – but it is cheap and fills you up for the day.
  • Neighborhood is not the city's best — Omonia is convenient for transport and sightseeing, but several guests describe it as not the nicest part of town, though they felt safe.
  • No pets and no on-site parking information — Pets are not allowed, and the hotel does not list parking, which may be a drawback for drivers.

“Great spot: 5 minutes from the central market and 10 from Monastiraki, and very close to the metro. The bedroom and bathroom are clean, even if the decor and fittings are dated. Breakfast is simple but very cheap, so worth it. Paid €35 for the room with breakfast – great value for Athens.”
