Philippos Hotel

I liked the hotel, it's small. cozy and authentic, location is a big plus. I'd stay again when in Athen.

The hotel is nicely located close to the Acropolis and the Plaka, and adjacent to a major shopping street. The rooms were a little small, but not uncomfortable. The balcony added a nice touch. Breakfast was better than adequate but nothing terribly exciting. staff were very helpful.

Hotel location is excellent. The location couldn’t be better... Definitely is a must repeat in our next trip.

Great location and views from our room were amazing...to the Panthenon

We came back to this hotel for the second year running and we would definitely stay here again. The location is perfect - walking distance to all the main sights and transport links, nice neighbourhood, little local bars/cafes just around the corner, and a fantastic restaurant (Piato el Greco) just a couple of minutes' walk away. The area is relaxed and pleasant and there is a grocery store very close by, which sells all the essentials. The hotel itself is great - relaxed atmosphere, good breakfast, nice staff, very clean. Our room this year was larger than the one last year, but both were very comfortable. The beds are seriously comfortable, as are the pillows. The rooms have good aircon and a fridge. We were here for the marathon and this hotel is in a great location to access the transport to the marathon itself and also the marathon expo transport. To get to the marathon expo, just walk to Syngrou Fix station (10 minutes), buy your ticket, then cross back over the road again to catch the 550 bus. It takes about 15 minutes and arrives just outside the expo. You may have to wait a while for a bus but it's much cheaper than a taxi. For the marathon itself, walk to Syngrou Fix station and catch one of the many marathon buses. The hotel caters very well for marathon runners, with a marathon package if you wish to take it. They do a really good breakfast on the Saturday and Sunday, and on the marathon day they do the breakfast nice and early.

I liked the location. Ideal for Central Athens and the Acropolis, the Acropolis museum too.

Welcoming staff, clean attractive room and bath, great central location. Lack of restaurant/coffee shop is a minor inconvenience - good breakfast is provided, sister hotel with these amenities is round the corner and many such establishments are very close by.

The view of the Acropolis was excellent from our 7th floor micro room. The location right in the heart of central Athens was also an excellent choice. The micro room is very small but not unexpected after doing our research and reading previous reviews. The space is tight but manageable. The breakfast options were just ok with not much choice other than breads. Croissants were definitely not fresh. Enjoyed staying here and would stay here again.

Very helpful staff, wonderful location, good breakfasts. Rooms on the small side, carpet and bathrooms need updating.
