Easy to get to via the rail from the airport this location is ideal for travelers. The only minor concern is the attached bar as some times during the evening the sounds can be loud.

A Lovely Stay
Lovely stay. Our room with a direct view of the Acropolis. Rooftop restaurant was wonderful. Staff in reception and in restaurant were all pleasant and helpful. It's a very small hotel and you can't drive right up to the door but neither of those were a problem for us. The location is literally right on Monastiraki Square which is lively deep into the night which, again, was not a problem for us as we use earplugs and sleep deeply but could be a problem if sensitive to noise.

A for Athens deserves the good reviews it gets. The place could not be more convenient. Step off the metro and it is right there. We got a room with a view of the Acropolis and it was everything we wanted. Huge picture window looking out over Monastriki Square and the Acropolis. Windows when closed provided good sound insulation. Breakfast was varied and filling. Front desk staff polite and helpful. Shoutout to Alex who was wonderful in helping us. Would definitely stay here again if I was in Athens. Safe area and plenty of dining options within walking distance. All the tourist stuff is also well within walking distance.

Property is right next to Monastiraki Square. We arrived early, but the front desk clerk stored our luggage while we did some sight-seeing around town and our room was ready. VERY small elevator, but the Shakira music videos playing while you used it made it awesome!

We did not stay at A for Athens. When we arrived, we were told the guy in our room did not check out and his stuff is still everywhere and they can’t remove it. They gave us a room at 360 degrees instead, about 50 feet away. The room was nice and staff was great. Breakfast bar was insane!!
