Evripides Hotel

This is a great hotel in the Psyri area of Athens which has a nice village feel even though it's bustling and right in the middle of the city only a 20.minute walk from the Acropolis and 10 minutes from Monistiraki Square. The room was spacious and clean with proper wardrobe and very good Aircon. Bed was king-size and very comfortable Breakfast was great with lots of choice and excellent views across to the Acropolis Of an evening it doubles as a bar and it was great to sit on the roof terrace with a glass of wine Staff were very friendly and helpful and were on reception 24 hrs. There are loads of great bars and tavernas on the doorstep and live music in the square It's easy to get to with a train from the airport to Monistiraki station then a 10 minute walk

Evripides has an amazing location, wonderful views from the rooftop area,and breakfast is really good. The hotel is very near of everything shops ,restaurants, acropolis etc, no need for a taxi all walking distance, perfect place to be. Room was good & clean maybe I will say that what it was missing in our room which it was an upgraded room (fifth floor all renovated) was a couple of bottles of water, kettle with some saches of coffee & tea sugar etc also an iron & iron board, there’ is an iron in reception if you ask for it but you have to take it back as soon as you finish no iron board was given.

I am very grateful for having stayed at Evripides for 5 days with my family as it surpassed our expectations. The recently renovated rooms on floors 4-6 were spacious, clean, modern and had comfortable mattresses, A/C, safe, hot power shower, TV and balcony. It was cleaned daily. The restaurant where breakfast is served is amazing, located on the 7th floor with views of the Acropolis and the surrounding neighbourhood. Excellent Greek and Continental breakfast. It also opens for dinner as a bar and offering light bites (pizza, sandwiches). I also made use of the decent fitness room in the basement floor where there were two good treadmills. The location is on the edge of tourist areas and a short walk to Monastiraki square with plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants within 5-10 minute walk - excellent restaurant Karamanlidika two blocks away. It looks like an area in transformation (gentrification?) as many old buildings are being renovated for hotels and apartments. The cherry on the cake was the staff, always extremely friendly. Special thanks to the couple running the breakfast and Sara at the reception. We would surely stay again!

Very clean room. Comfortal bed with extra pillows available in closet and duvet cover used (instead of a sheet under a duvet). 24 hour receptionist. Excellent location, very close to Monastiraki square (7 min walk). Free luggage storage in an unlocked area. Several paid lockers available for 2 euros (no time limit). Also paid luggage weight available (I did not use). The best part, amazing top floor breakfast area with floor to ceiling glass window. A good spread of breakfast items, including boiled eggs, bread slices, cheese pastries, cereals, juices from a machine, decent coffee, yummy Greek yogurt, oranges, ham slices, cheese slices and fresh Greek salad ingredients (cucumber, tomato, olives, feta cheese). A lovely breakfast buffet to start one's day.

We had a really nice three night stay here for a long weekend in Athens. The staff are very warm and friendly, and happy for a chat. The free breakfast was simple but delicious, you don’t need much more than some bread and salads and yoghurt, and it kept us full for a day of wandering Athens. And we loved the rooftop with a view of the Acropolis! The location is a bit rough around the edges but we felt safe walking at night and it’s very close to a lot of good bars and restaurants. Our room was very simple and no frills, but it’s very affordable and everything else the hotel has to offer makes such value for money.
