Hotels Near Parkarisma in North Athens

I wish I’d read the review below mine before booking. Believe it. I had to give 1 star, as you have to give at least 1 in order to leave a review. I reiterate all of it: Rock hard old mattresses with coils sticking out. Rude or non existent service especially at breakfast. I’d add, my room overlooked a bar/restaurant. Kept up until midnight with the music and noise last night - which was a Monday. The food is bland. Pizza for breakfast? I asked for a coffee in the morning as the serve yourself filter had ran out. He came over, shook it and tipped it to give me the dregs. All of that done like I was an inconvenience. It’s not a 5 star. I’d give it a 2. Please don’t book this hotel.

Just finished our trip in Greece. We stayed in Kifissia, in this beautiful and lovely hotel. Everyone was always kind and helpful from the start to the finish. Both my husband and my kids loved it. Reception was always smiling and answering our questions without a doubt.Panagiotis and Marita, lovely people. Restaurant was magnificent and the food/drinks were lovely. We spend most of our time with Giannis and Konstantina on the afternoon . Both of them were always very kind and quick to our needs and orders,even though their plate was always full with people. They give the restaurant what it needs. We also spent a little time with another waiter, I believe his name was Stavros or something similar. He was the opposite of what the previous waiters were and that kind of ruined our experience in the restaurant.He was also rude sometimes both to us and his fellow coworkers. The housekeeping ladies were full of love and kindness and our rooms were always clean. Overall 4.9/5 experience. We will sure return again.

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.

I’m sad to read that there was this problem even ages ago, and till last week nothing has changed… I didn’t check tripadvisor before to book I’m only opening this to let the others know this problem but I’m seeing it’s an old and unsolved problem. After the orribile first night told to the reception what happened, oh ok I’ll send the housekeeper to sanificate the room, when we returned back in the evening I think nobody has never entered into that room coz the sheet were still dirty of blood. Second night again, this time they changed us the room, same problem meanwhile I was getting worst and worst and fortunately they chased just me (we were with 2 kids 2 and an half, and 8 months baby). Once again I went down to the reception and we got another room, but nothing changed. The only thing they have to do is junk everything in the bin start to sanificate and deep clean from the rooftop to the basement, then paint the wall and new everything. (We were 4 but in the first two rooms we got 3 single beds, in the last one just a doble bed)

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.

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.

Closer to the Acropolis, it is convenient to eat, drink, drink and go shopping. But the airport bus took to the Constitution Square and dragged the luggage or got a subway stop. The room is acceptable, classical style, and the bathroom is slightly smaller. On the street, the night is noisy and not too soundproof. The front desk service was good and the breakfast was quite rich.

I liked the location because it was quiet and not a noisy tourist area. I was able to visit major tourist attractions on foot. Even the subway station was close. There were delicious brunch restaurants, a coin laundromat, and a supermarket nearby, so it was convenient to use. This is a place I would like to recommend. I could always drink delicious coffee.

It looked good on screen and it looked just as good in real life. Friendly and helpful staff to not only get you checked in and into your apartment with ease but to give you some insights to the local area and all that has to offer. We booked the Superior Suite so was a cute mezzanine layout. Proper coffee machine, kettle, hob, fridge and oven; even a fruit bowl packed with juciy oranges ready to be squeezed (there is an electric juicer too). Special call out to Panos who was super helpful throughout our stay. It's very close to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center, which combines a great viewing point for sunsets, the modern architecture of the Opera House as well as park land, sports facilities (running track, outdoor gym, swimming pools etc) and a great restaurant (Jardin All Day Stories)

We have stayed here before and were due to return two years ago but Covid happened. When we cancelled, we were told that our payment would be kept on hold until our next visit and they were as good as their word. Avra operates an efficient shuttle service to and from Athens airport which makes the transfer so much easier. Upon arrival we were offered complimentary soft drinks - so very welcome in the heat! Our en suite room with sea views was spacious, well appointed and very comfortable. Room service was also very prompt. In the morning we enjoyed our self-service bountiful breakfast. The restaurant staff and the ladies at reception were professional, helpful and very pleasant. Coupled with the fact that the ferry is a very short walk away, for us this is our hotel of choice in Rafina.
