Perfection

Couldn’t fault a single thing. The staff were incredibly warm and friendly. Their genuine kindness and hospitality not only made my short stay in Athens memorable, but as though I was staying with friends.

My family and I (with wife, 2 kids (17,15)) stayed at the Athenian Spirit for two nights during our visit to Athens. The property suites our needs perfectly. I would recommend it.

The lady in the lobby was really nice, the hotel was new and clean. There were many restaurants near the hotel. The only problem was that there was loud music until very late during some nights but it is not the hotels fault.

JORGE, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent stay! Extremelly clean and fresh. Super friendly and kind staff. Great location literally 2 minutes from the metro station. Very comfortable bed and spacious bathroom. The only two suggestions we have for the owner are to add a small microwave as it is very inconvenient not to be able to heat food or milk for the kids and to invest in good pillows that don’t make noise. However, everything else was great and we had a fantastic time. We would definitely be back and, in fact, we will be recommending this place to friends and family. Thanks!!!

The place is a luxury residence, reasonably priced, friendly staff, good location, bigger rooms with kitchen and in excellent condition. The owner is cordial, cheerful and attentive. I love everything about it.

10/10 Exceptional

The staff at the property was super helpful they answered all my questions about the local area being our first time visiting Greece, they also provided outstanding service, and upgraded our room to a larger suite at no extra charge since it was not booked.

We had a great stay. Staff are friendly and helpful. A few minute walk to the nearest metro stop. Pictures are true to the apartment. The kitchen was decently equipped although we didn't use it. Check in was well explained and easy.

I contacted the hotel that I will be arriving around noon and wanted to drop off luggages. Room was available upon our arrival and already emailed us the access code prior to arrival. Front desk was very friendly and she helped us with our luggages.

Front desk staff are very helpful. Metro right there next to the hotel. Lots of Restaurants around you. Just outside of downtown walking area.
George, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The property can best serve lightly-luggaged travellers. The elevator was small & tight. The vertical travel is not designed for persons with disabilities i.e. missing ramps, handrails, grab bars in wash rooms, etc. Otherwise the facilities were nice & clean; and the staff were most helpful.
OSCAR, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay!

This property was wonderful to stay at. Very clean and modern. Communication was great and straightforward on how to access the building and keys. You can take the metro right from the airport to just around the corner, and walk to many nearby attractions/sites. The only negative is that the building is surrounded by clubs so the noise does carry well into the night, although this didn't bother us. I would definitely stay here again.
Trevor, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

We stayed here for a few days to explore Athens and really liked the apartment. The roof top is great especially at night. On Thursday night at around 1 in the morning the club next door started to play really loud music and as there was nothing like that the days before we were wide awake. The metro is really close.
Stefanie, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Everything was great and we received excellent service from Elani receptionist. Property size was great with nice size balcony. Utensils where we cooked on could be upgraded to non sticky pots and pans. Regular trash disposal as with kids dustbins filled up quickly. Where the cleaning was every 2 days. Overall very satisfied. Best thing was we were very close to the Metro station which was convenient to get around.

Gazi Gem!

We had great communication leading up to our stay here and had a room on the fourth floor which provided some views of the acropolis. In room amenities were great and bed was very comfortable. Air con was excellent. Level 5 roof provided views the acropolis. Please note whilst we really loved this accomodation it does get noisy at night with the nightclubs around the area which can last up till 6am some nights. The hotel provides ear plugs and we didn’t have any problem sleeping. Overall a fantastic stay and we will definitely come back! Thank you :-)
Brendon, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Friendly, family-owned property maintained to a high standard. Tucked away in a tranquil neighbourhood, it is an easy walk to the agora along a footpath. Nearby there are unpretentious places to eat and to purchase essentials - including a helpful English-speaking drugstore. Plenty of ATMs. Metro is close. There is an exciting sounding dance venue not far away for those looking for night life. For others, who prefer an early night, the apartment's double glazing prevents the music from being a nuisance. (In fact, I like the distant sound of people having fun.) Will definitely stay again when visiting Athens.

Great hotel near nightlife in Gazi

Stayed here for 4 nights in August 2024. Its quite a nice little modern building with comfortable and modern rooms. I booked the junior suite on the top floor which has a separate bedroom and living room/kitchen + a huge balcony with a table and chairs outside and a retractable roof. Bed was very comfortable. This place was a great value too ' a good price for a rather large apartment style room. Definitely recommended if you want to stay in Gazi close to the nightlife. Only drawback may be noise from surrounding bars and clubs (they provided earplugs, it disnt bother me at all, but if you want a room that is quiet look elsewhere). But on the plus side - you can walk to nightlife (including all LGBT bars/clubs) in a few minutes). Will definitely come back!
