Hotels Near Lighthouse in Salamis Island

Very nice little hotel, close to the ferry gates and the metro station, extremely friendly staff. The room was very confortable, nespresso machine and minibar. The elevator is slow, so we took the stairs most of the time. Would definitely stay again.

Cons -The location of this hotel is on a very busy road with traffic running all through the night, hence it is very noisy. It is also a 10 min cab ride costing 15 euros to Plaka and Montseraki square. It is not close to a metro station. The rooms are okay, not “smart” in any way, only Greek tv channels and CNN, no way of connecting Netflix on tv. Very small elevators. Very small bathroom and shower stall. Pros- Service staff is polite and helpful. King size bed. Hair dryer present. Great breakfast in the rooftop restaurant with a view of the Acropolis. It has a couple of good restaurants nearby.. Jaipur Palace and Changs kitchen.

Everything was perfect in this well located hotel. We travelled with a dog and they were very accommodating. The room was very comfortable, clean and with full amenities. We will definitely return soon!

Family room, the room is about 15 square meters, clean, comfortable, breakfast variety is slightly less, the surrounding environment is excellent, 5 minutes walk to the seaside park, the Aegean Sea is unimaginable, too comfortable

Though most of this establishment are private rooms, I stayed in the 8-person dorm, so that is what I am reviewing. While this hostel was very clean and well serviced, it isn’t as good as some other hostels I’ve stayed in recently. The beds were not the most comfortable, though I did sleep alright on them. The beds are completely in the open, so there is absolutely no privacy at all. Also, there are limited electrical outlets, so, depending on how busy it is, you might be fighting for plug space (fortunately the dorm was less than half occupied during my visit, so it wasn’t much of a problem). The dorm does have one, ensuite bathroom, which I imagine results in queues during the busy season, however it is very clean. Lockers are available outside the dorm room for your bags/valuables. The dorm is located on the second floor, over streets which are quite busy late at night, so you will hear the din from the crowd below (light sleepers beware!). Two of the best aspects of this hostel as it’s location and rooftop terrace. Five minutes walk from Monastiraki Square, everything you want to see in central Athens is a stones throw away. The rooftop terrace is absolutely wonderful, with magnificent views of the Acropolis and the old city. A great place to enjoy a few beers in the evening (and a killer sunset), a coffee in the morning (with a terrific sunrise), or just catching some rays in the afternoon. See photos. For the location and terrace alive, I’d stay here again…but would probably opt for a private room.

Hotel is nice but the location not so good. In regards to location: easy access to main road and train station BUT neighborhood not good. Homelessness and drug users visible and crowd the street on your way to the side streets to the hotel entrance. Didn’t feel secure once I walked out of the hotel. The hotel itself was nice, clean and the front desk staff friendly. Breakfast was good.

Stayed in a 6 bed hostel room. Bunk was comfortable. Nice large lock boxes. Good lighting and electric outlets with each bunk. Good curtains for privacy and lighting. Staff was really helpful and welcoming. Nice cafe on street level. Bathrooms were clean and kitchen on 1st floor was nice and coffee and tea were available. Great location in a Athens. Right where you want to be for quick access to attractions, transportation, restaurants and nightlife. Yes staying in a shared room can get noisy when people come in after a night out, but that’s hostel life. In any case bed was comfortable and I slept well. Would stay there again.

I stayed at Mosaikon for 5 days. The hostel is not like your typical hostel, it has a feel and service of a hotel. I stayed in a 4 bed female dorm with a private bathroom and the beds were comfortable, you had room to sit up and read and curtains to maintain your privacy when sleeping. Housekeeping cleaned the romms everyday. They offer a laundry service if you need any clothes washed, which is helpful if travelling for long. On the first floor you have a kitchen where you a cooker, microwave, kettle, coffee maker and fridge. Perfect if you want to prepare your own meals. I chose to have breakfast and you your choice of hot beverage made for you, with boiled eggs, gronola and yoghurt, bread, ham sandwich, scrambled eggs, Greek pastry and croissants. There is also freshly squeezed orange juice available too. The fifth floor is their roof top bar where you get to enjoy the view of the Acropolis lit up at night. The bar was not open whilst I was there, but can imagine it being a great place to meet other fellow travellers. The staff are all helpful and would like to say a big thank you to Kuriios. He always greets you with a smile and was so helpful in giving his recommendations on any trips from Athens and how best to get there. I ended up going up north to Kalambaka to see the Meteora Monasteries. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Athens to plan a trip to see them. Mosaikon is in walking distance to all major sites and the area Monastiraki has plenty of restaurants, bars, coffee shops and shops to explore. I have no doubt you will enjoy your stay here with the friendly service and great location.

This was my first time staying in a hostel, as well as staying in a 6 bed mixed dorm, so I was a bit unsure at first but that changed from the second I got there. The staff and everyone that I met there were just great and so friendly! The rooftop bar was simply amazing! Not even a 2 seconds up there and you meet a whole bunch of new friends from all over the world. Oh! Not to forget the great view you get of the Acropolis from the roof top at night! Without a doubt, I will be staying here again when I come back to Athens! Thankyou for making my solo trip here something to remember

Excellent value for money hotel in a fantastic location just a few minutes walk from Athens’ most visited spots. The staff were friendly and helpful, the room was clean and spacious and the breakfast buffet was fantastic. No tea/coffee making facilities but I don’t know if that’s normal in Athens, but there is a fridge and great air conditioning. Then roof top bar in their sister hotel Plaka is well worth a visit. Highly recommend.
