Zappion Hotel - Athens

excellent base for city walks and essential sightseeing spots nearby

I had a fantastic time staying here, as it's just a short stroll to the fine National Garden and the iconic Panathenaic Stadium, making my weekend exploration so enjoyable.

This hotel offers neat and wonderful rooms with TV and great breakfast, for example: )

the stuff where amazingly nice and accommodating and were around whole time. enjoyed the room with a spacey balcony, my bed was comfortable. i had good food for breakfast for all diets.

Facilities were excellent, nonetheless Wi-Fi signal was very weak.

Super location, quiet but near transport and the Acropolis. My room was compact but clean with a nice little balcony. Air conditioning worked well, and the beds were comfortable. Free luggage storage after check-out was a plus. I would definitely recommend staying here ☀️

The shower was tiny, ridiculous. I might as well been showering in a phone booth, and i wouldn't expect a decent night's sleep on a mattress that was like sleeping on springs. I was hoping for a complimentary gift after this ordeal, but wishful thinking seems to be par for the course here. Almost gave a good review though, just couldn't.

We walked everywhere, but the metro was very close & fast too. The area was quiet as soon as you come off the main road & we never once felt unsafe. I really liked the fact that we had free wifi in the room & the welcome at the reception was polite and friendly.

The walls in the building are thin, but that is to be expected from a budget hotel. The aircon in the room wasn't working properly, but luckily the temperatures outside were still bearable. The matrass was very uncomfortable. But all in all for a budget hotel it was really okay.

The hotel is located in a quiet area and is easily reachable 24/24H from the airport (by bus or metro). All the interesting places of Athens are reachable by walk.

The room was very small.

The only advantage was good location and more than reasonable prices

little space, not very clean

The location is great: a quiet and safe street in the middle of the city centre. You can easily walk to Syntagma square or a subway station in 10 minutes to catch every public transport you need. The rooms are clean and exactly what you expect from a budget hotel. The air conditioning works very well.

The walls are indeed very thin, so noises from the hall or from neighbours could sometimes be heard. If you are sensitive to this you need some earplugs.

The location was fantastic-just a 15-minute walk to the Acropolis! Plus, the efficient air conditioning. Such great value for a clean and quiet room!

Good and quite location and friendly stuff

The doors of the room did not lock (you just closed the door). There was a smell of cigarette smoke every day I woke up.I Could hear everything from the next room

The hotel was modest, but very clean and very, very good value for money. I can't say nothing wrong about the service. Situated less than 1 km from major sightseeing sites.

The walls were a little thin and you could hear noises from other rooms.

I enjoyed the cozy room, but the shower was super tiny.

Don't be put off by the sometimes strangely decorated rooms (one had zebraprint-wallpaper), this is a nice hotel to stay. The staff are very friendly and could match the right room number to our faces within days of arrival. My room had a huge balcony, which was nice to relax in the sun after a day walking through the city. The hotel is located about 10 min walk from the Evangelismos metro station and 15-20 min walk from the city centre and the restaurants in Plaka. The roman stadium and tram to the beach are just around the corner. Breakfast is not included but can be useful if you need to leave very early, and there are several bakeries and an all-hours supermarket very close by. The room had a refrigerator to keep some drinks cool.

The rooms are quite small (big enough, but not much room to put your suitcase) and dark. The bathrooms are clean but a bit old and the shower was tiny. One of my friends had a room adjacent to the "party house" next door and heard music all friday and saturday night, but it was the only room this could be heard.

Quirky and pleasant hotel, the services were excellent, unbeatable location so close to everything. The staff was exceptionally nice, I will never forget them. The room I stayed in was silent and spotless with un-opening windows, the kitchen, for example. The price was £ 73.
