When closed bathroom door it locked. Had to go at reception 2am to pick up bathroom keys. They have no service phone to call reception and the lift takes ages to go up & down. Area around it’s dirty & unsafe.

Decent stay in Athens …
3 night trip to Athens , booked it because it was close to Subway. The neighbourhood is not to most glamorous in the city but it’s doable. Room was clean and the hotel was good none the less.

The hotel is just a minute walk from Omonia metro station and it’s on a main road - you don’t have to go into any sketchy alleyways. I was alone and felt totally safe walking to/from the hotel.
The room was clean and the bathroom was spotless.

1. Hotel is less than 5 minutes walk to/from the Omonia Metro which is the station for services to/from the airport (9 euro as at May 2025)
2. Hotel is less than 10 minutes walk to/from Monastiraki which is one entry point to the main tourist sites such as the Acropolis
3. The room space and bathroom were a good size, and was sufficient for 2 guests travelling with medium-sized suitcases
4. Small bar fridge to keep food/drinks cold
5. Close to a self-service laundromat

Cheap and OK
You got what you pay for..
A cheap hotel and if you only need a place with a bed and bathroom (that was clean!) for one night, this is good enough..
But don’t expect this to be a luxury place..

Overall it was great stay. I’m ok the noise from the road but someone will mind. The curtain in the bathroom should be removed or redesigned. It’s uncomfortable

Great! The only reason from I dont give a 10 it’s because the bed was a bit old and noisy. In general very good

Ares Athens Hotel provided a mostly comfortable stay for my friend and I this weekend. The beds were a little hard, but from the amount we walked everyday, we fell right asleep every night. The rooms were mostly clean except for finding hairs on the sheets and on the blankets. The location, although a little sketchy at night, was a very short walk to all of the tourist attractions and very good food. The cleaning service was great and the staff was very friendly. Definitely would recommend if you’re on a budget.
