We arrived early at the hotel after a cruise. While I expected the room not to be ready? The staff was not very friendly, welcoming or accommodating.. We did not receive or was told about VIP access perks relating to the reservation .We were never invited to visit the restaurant or spa. They told us they would contact us when the room was ready and we never heard from them so we randomly showed back up at the stated check in time. The hotel was clean however it always had a weird fishy smell in the hallway or whenever the AC turned on. The location is close to tons of restaurants and shopping areas.

This is a very nice, simple hotel in downtown Athens. It is a good value for the money. Our room was clean, air conditioned and quiet. Considering the location, we were very happy to have a room off street with a small but appointed balcony. The staff spoke good English, were friendly and very helpful. One small complaint is that the jacuzzi in the spa was not heated when we tried to use it (extra expense). The breakfast buffett was excellent and full of choices. Great coffees too. Simple but very good value.

Our room was so moldy. The ceiling was leaking and it smelled so strongly of mold. I would have expected much better because of the price and what the reviews and pictures portrayed. We also had someone unlock our door by accident and tried to enter our room in the middle of the night which was terrifying. It sounded like an employee but we still never got answers as to why that happened. The follow- through to make things right was not great.

My wife and I were only here one night, but we really enjoyed the hotel and it's location near Monastaraki, which was great for enjoying and exploring the local area. We had a slight mishap, unrelated to the hotel, when checking in, and the hotel staff were super helpful and attentive in helping us resolve the situation and get us back on track. A specific mention to the hotel staff 'Angel' who went above and beyond in helping us. Great staff, great hotel. Would definitely recommend.

Fabulous central but quiet location. Charming, ultra-helpful service. Stylish modern room. Only minor gripe: a shower partition would be welcome. Otherwise the bathroom floor gets dangerously slippery.

Great place with very friendly helpful staff, however the bathroom design is mind boggling, one wall is clear glass including the bathroom door so you get the pleasure of watching your family use the toilet.

We arrived early after cruise ship docked and the staff were so helpful. Checked our bags and we set off to explore Athens. Returned in the afternoon hot and tired. We day in the lobby to await check in when a staff member walked over and checked us in where we sat! Our bags had already been delivered and the AC preset by the bellhop made the very clean and modern room so comfortable. After an evening visit to the nearby Acropolis we wandered back through numerous shops and restaurants and enjoyed the rooftop dining at Savvas. The front desk also set up a ride to the airport for a fair price. A short but very fun stay thanks to the great staff at Residence Aiolou!
