Property was close to many attractions and dining options. The room was newly renovated, clean and the bed was comfortable. The staff were friendly and courteous. However, the street the property is on is dirty and had unfortunate homeless people sleeping on the street.

Great staff - everyone we talked to at the property were pleasant and very helpful. We booked a quadruple and with the renovation, we were moved to their sister hotel which was just next door, and we were escorted over to check in. We arrived in the morning and we were already allowed to checkin which is a great convenience, letting us rest and change before going around. The hotel is by the square with flea market. The Acropolis and museum are walking distance. We had fun going around the flea market, seeing some of the ruins around Acropolis, and had a lot of dining options.

This place was pretty amazing. The staff is super friendly and can arrange anything you’d like, from taxi’s to tours. The place was clean, the AC worked, the view was amazing, the breakfast was 5 stars. The breakfast alone was worth the price. Plus the location was central to everything, amazing food all around you, bars, flea market, whatever you wanted. Recommend this place if you’re looking to stay in Athena for any amount of time. Please be sure to get the breakfast.

We had a wonderful stay at A for Athens.
The views over Monastiraki to the acropolis were magnificent. The room was very comfortable and remarkably quiet given the busy area just outside. The highlight of the hotel, however, was the reception staff. Friendly, incredibly helpful and always available. We'll definitely stay here again on our next visit to Athens!

There was construction at the hotel that we were not aware of, so we had to go to another place for breakfast. I think this should have been communicated in advance.
The hotel was really well located if you want to be in the heart of the crowd and have easy access to the tourist area.
I want to say a BIG thank you to Annick, she was amazing! So kind and helpful. Her advice on where to go and what to do during our stay was wonderful. I can’t thank her enough. She even didn’t mind guiding us for the rest of the trip, including how to get to the islands. I give her 10/10!

Beautifully remodeled rooms, well appointed, great views. Perfect location for what we wanted. Monastiraki square right across the street, all the shopping and restaurants you could want. All the Hop on/Hop off tours had a stop right there. And a 15 minute walk to the Acropolis main entrance. Only criticism, the fire/smoke alarms had a very bright flashing light on them that was directly over the bed, very distracting to sleep with.

The hotel is going under Reservations so the lobby area was kind of a mess of stacked boxes and construction materials. The entry of the side street is very understated. Almost missed. But I will tell you that I had a room with a balcony that looked straight at the Acropolis and it was spectacular.
