Acropolis House

Perfect location for a semi-solo stay in Athens (daugher was travelling on after 2 days). In the heart of Plaka with all restaurants around. Very warm & welcoming family running it - including helping me with Greek, and providing huge breakfasts including beautiful honey cake every morning (just sorry I don't each much for breakfast). We had the family room - 403 - and the lack of the lift was more than made up for by a terrace with views over a very quiet little street on side and the Acropolis out of the hall window on the other! Thank you - I hope to be able to return!

Stayed for 5 nights first part of our holiday in Athens. Going back. Third time we have stayed here in 26yrs.3rd generation owner friendly staff. Great breakfast and very clean comfy rooms.

Home from another enjoyable stay at Acropolis House. We had a staggered twelve night stay and enjoyed the comfort of it all. Felt as if we’d never been away, lovely friendly welcome at breakfast from Emannuella and Penny, these ladies work hard providing guests with a good set Greek breakfast, eggs cheese, ham, bread and always fresh cake and fruit. The bedrooms are clean and tidy fresh towels everyday always a good morning from housekeeping staff. I’m sorry I don’t know young man on evening reception name but always smile when we returned after a good day of sightseeing. Hope to be back in future. Perfect setting for historical sites, restaurants, transport and shopping.

The Acropolis House is very well located, with shops, supermarkets and tourist attractions only a few meters away. Its staff is very welcoming, the breakfast was very good too. The family room ok for a couple of nights!

The hotel is quaint andfull of character and is in a really convenient part of Athens so that you can walk to all of the main sights. The reception were very nice and booked taxis for us to the Ktel bus station for Delphi and for the airport. It was very hot while we were there and we were glad to have airconditioning

Location is amazing, next to everything, the service is very friendly and the rooms are okay :) we can’t ask more

Great location, easy walk to restaurants, etc. Our triple room was well-appointed. Breakfast was a wonderful introduction to Greece. The vintage feel was nice and AC worked well. Pedestrian walkway outside so surprisingly quiet. Would stay here again.

Great staff and great location. Loved our stay. Very clean otherwise. Rooms could be a bit bigger but understandable since it's an old building. Loved the antique feeling inside.

We stayed in the Acropolis House for 5 nights in April. We saw the hotel on a list of hotels in the Plaka while reading Rick Steves’ guide on Greece. We found the hotel comfortable and just what we needed – a base, centrally located, where we could sleep, shower and change – being perfectly located in the Plaka close to all the sites; the Acropolis, Syntagma Square, the Agora, Hadrian’s Library, etc. Whenever we finished our day’s excursion, we found we were only ever 10 minutes or less from the hotel. Emanuella, who runs the hotel, was very helpful as were all her staff. Her daughter even took time out from eating her dinner to make us coffee as the member of staff on duty was busy with another guest. The breakfast was simple but enjoyable and the homemade cake was delicious. We usually left before breakfast started but, if you notified them the day before, they would make breakfast to go. Something a potential guest should know; the rooms are small, as are the bathrooms. Some of the bathrooms are across the hall; we had a triple ensuite room with a small balcony for the 2 of us. A third adult would have made the room feel cramped. However, we never intended on staying in the hotel except to sleep – there is far too much to see and do in Athens! Additionally, there are no elevators, so you must carry your luggage up the winding staircase. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and if you want a centrally located, comfortable hotel the Acropolis House should be considered.
