PERFECT LOCATION
THE ATHENS GATE HOTEL WAS THE MOST AMAZING PLACE TO STAY IN ATHENS! IT WAS CONVENIENT TO THE PLAKA FOR SHOPPING AND TO THE ACROPOLIS AS WELL AS THE MEETING PLACES FOR TOURS WHICH WE HAD BOOKED. THE RESTAURANT ON THE ROOFTOP WAS NOT ONLY DELICIOUS FOR BREAKFAST AND DINNER BUT THE VIEW OF THE ACROPOLIS AND THE PARTHENON WAS AMAZING BOTH DURING THE DAY AND ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT.
THE STAFF WAS VERY ACCOMODATING WITH DIRECTIONS AND WITH SECURING A VAN FOR ALL OF OUR LUGGAGE TO TAKE US TO THE AIRPORT AT THE COCCLUSION OF OUR STAY. WE WILL CERTAINLY RECOMMEND THE ATHENS GATE HOTEL TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS!

A High Recommend
We enjoyed a two-night stay in a balcony room overlooking the Acropolis. This was a knock-out view from a very large balcony. The room was excellent in all ways, and the breakfast was diverse and very good. Excellent location for walking to many main attractions. Highly recommend!!

Couldnt have picked a better location to see the sights. Everything was excellent. Wish the room was bigger but that seems to be typical in Europe

Great Experience at the Athens Gate Hotel
It was great. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable . We had breakfast and dinner at the rooftop restaurant and it was great. The view from the restaurant was beautiful, day and night. The Acropolis was so close. Plus, it’s located only a couple of blocks away from the historic Plaka district. So nice to just take a short walk to that amazing area with all the restaurants and stores.

Good but can improve
My room was on floor 1, too close to the noisy street. The breakfast food was deficient and not good; they can improve here. The view from the top floor is spectacular, the best of the hotel. Location is perfect, right in front of an ancient park and Adrian’s gate. I would stay there again, but in a higher floor room. The front desk people were very friendly and informative.

Great Stay
This was a great hotel. Service was fast. I asked for extra towels and the towels were there in less than two minutes. It was clean and the views were amazing. Walking distance to the Acropolis was a plus. The double decker busses stop very close as well if you want to ride those. Food was great.
