Byron Hotel in Athens

The only good thing about this hotel is the location. The 2 male front desk employees were both rude especially the one without glasses. The wifi did not work, the air conditioning did not work, we requested a balcony & got it but there were no chairs or table on it in order for us to use it. Price is outrageous for the quality of the staff and facilities. I’ve travelled extensively in Greece and my far this is the worst place I’ve stayed.

Ant wars next to the acropolis.

+ : The location is perfect and the staff very welcoming. I'd also like to say that the roof top offers a beautiful view of the acropolis. The breakfast is not extraordinary, but corresponds to the quality/price ratio to be found in Athens.

- : The many ants in the room. I pointed this out at the beginning of my stay. They put insecticide in the bathroom (and on the toothbrush...). I found a veritable anthill in my suitcase on the last day. I was told it was normal because I had food (an unopened packet of pasta) in my room. What's more, at the beginning of the stay there were ants even though I had no food. It's never normal to have ants in a hotel room, food or no food. Moreover, when booking, I recommend that you do not ask for rooms on the ground floor. First of all, they open directly onto reception and the elevator. They are therefore quite noisy, especially early in the morning and late at night. What's more, in my case, my room had a very small window overlooking a skylight. I think the other rooms are better and I was able to get better ones in Athens for the same price.
