Excellent location!”

Arethusa Hotel is right in the city centre, just off Syntagma Square and a short walk to the Plaka. All famous attractions in Athens such as the Acropolis, Agoras and Temple of Olympian Zeus are also within walking distance. Syntagma Metro station is convenient for fast and cheap transport to the airport and Piraeus Port for visiting the islands. The rooms are small but clean and tidy, there is a free Wi-Fi and a safe with a security code in the room. The buffet breakfast is very good and the receptionists are friendly and helpful. On the negative side – the bathroom in our room was in need of refurbishment. Bottom line - decent tourist hotel in an excellent location.

My Only n best choice in Athens.”

My Only n best choice in Athens. 100m to Syntagma train station. 6 Euros bus number X95 from Airport direct 24hours bus each way per person to Syntagma Square. Less than 5min walk to hotel ARETHUSA. Their breakfast is AWESOME. New renovated rooms. Wifi in the room can improve.

Nice 3 star hotel”

Spent two nights at Arethusa Hotel with my husband. The location was really great and very close to Athens Acropolis, just one street walking distance (shopping street full of local stores and restaurants) from the hotel and you will see the Acropolis. If you take the bus X95 from the Airport, you could get off at Syntagma Square and walk 150 meters to the hotel. The hotel was clean yet a little bit small. Was merely enough for two suitcases to open. However, there was only one socket in the entire room near the TV which we had to take turns to charge our mobile phone and other devices.

Great location and great breakfast”

Arethusa is located right in middle of all the buzz in Athens. It's a 2 minute walk from the Syntagma metro station, 20 minutes from the Acropolis, 10 min walk to the Monastiraki Square and flea market. Very close to Plaka as well. We walked everywhere from the hotel because of the location. It's also close to places where one can shop. The staff are very polite. They gave us a map and showed us the streets we could walk on.

Excellent Location”

A 3 minute walk from Syntagma Square Metro Station and right in the heart of the best area in Athens for visiting historic sights and enjoying an amazing selection of bars, restaurants and shops within walking distance. Hotel is a bit dated with a tiny lift (not suitable for anyone with claustrophobia!) but rooms were spacious and clean with fridge but no tea/coffee making facilities. Staff were pleasant and helpful and breakfast was good though hot selection a bit limited. All in all very good value for money and fantastic for a night in the City. Blue Line 3 goes direct from Syntagma Square to the International Airport, trains run about every 20 minutes. Fare 10 Euros.

Well situated hotel”

Arethusa hotel is centrally situated. It is walking distance to everything like restaurants, shops and the famous plaka district. Rooms at Arethusa are very clean and reception staff are very attentive. Will stay here again on my next trip to Athens. Highly recommended.

Nice accommodation in the heart of Athens”

Arethusa hotel is an incredible hotel in Syntagma. Big bed, quiet room, cleanliness , adequate breakfast and friendly hotel service are the pros . No cons from me. The best value for money hotel.

Best Value for Location”

My vacation or holiday experience in Athens ended up being better than i anticipated based on luck that i chose Arethusa hotel which ended up being in the perfect location (shopping, subway, acropolis, etc). I had no idea where i was located in athens until i arrived and walked around that i realized i was in the heart of the city.

Brief encounter”

I came, I slept, I departed. There is not much more to say about a hotel where I arrived after midnight and left in the morning to catch a bus to the airport. The bed was soft and I was tired, so we got on well. The breakfast was ample and I was hungry, so we got on well as well. Then I was gone. It is quite likely that I shall book a room in the Arethusa Hotel (nice name) again. No complaints.

Perfect location!!”

The location of the hotel is perfect, very close to syntagma square and ermou! The rooms are very clean with comfortable beds, furniture needs replacement though,very old doors as well and quite noisy as there are no double glazed windows. Perfect choice if you just want a place to sleep after a long day exploring Athens! Breakfast is ok,nothing special but satisfying! Would stay there again!

Great Location Hotel”

The Arethusa Hotel in Athens, Greece had an excellent location for travellers who don't have much time to see the city. The hotel was located close to all the main sightseeing areas, as well as being in the centre of many great restaurants. My room was small, but had recently been upgraded. There were no coffee / tea making facilities but plenty of cafes nearby. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the bed was comfortable.

Location and cost ”

The property location was excellent it was very close to Syntagma Square and the bus station. The room was big and the beds comfy with a bar fridge and aircon . The hotel was walking distance to the Acropolis and some of the other historical sites. The hotel was ideal for what we required. We were able to catch the express bus X95 to the airport from Syntagma Square for €6 each and it dropped us off at the international airport departures, which was cheaper than an airport transfer or taxi which would of cost about €35.

Very good..”

This hotel has good location. Travelers are near Syntagma Square where you can find a well. The hotel is clean, friendly and good facilities also. People who travel to Athens, Greece, is considered to be the best hotel.

VALUE FOR MONEY & GREAT LOCATION”

Excellent location near to Syntagma Square(Parliament House). Last stop of X95 airport bus. Close to to all major tourist sites and shopping districts. Good restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Friendly staff and good continental/British breakfast provided. The nightly rate was very reasonable in March. We had two triple rooms and the rooms are considerably small, (big enough for 3 Asians). The bathrooms are small however all heating systems worked fine. This hotel has secured storage compartments charging 2 Euro/per usage. Good as a transit point to visit Greek islands, Santorini etc.

When in Athens its only Arethusa”

Top choice - Arethusa. Breakfast is awesome. Location the best. WiFi can improve. Near to X95 airport 24 hours bus n Syntagma train station

VALUE FOR MONEY & IDEAL LOCATION”

We stayed 1 more night(1 double and 1 triple rooms) in this hotel after a superb trip to Santorini. It was Easter weekend and we booked in time to get a reasonable rate. The friendly staff was so kind to accomodate our request by putting five of us up in two adjacent rooms. Free breakfast was provided! The hotel is ideally located and within walking distances to all major tourist sites..... bus stop to airport etc. There are a number of good resatuarants nearby, including two Chinese's. The only negative is the small bedroom and bathroom. Nevertheless, we will come back to this hotel if we are in Athens in the future.

I cannot thank arethusa hotel enough for what they did for me. they even kept my luggage until a room was available. location is just perfect for shopping and very central

Convenient Location, Bright Urban City Vibe”

My stay at the Arethusa Hotel was very pleasant. The location is excellent, the rooms nice, and the staff helpful. My only complaint--and it is a big one--is that the doors require being slammed to fully close. The noise of continual slamming doors is very jarring. If this issue with the doors can be resolved, the Arethusa Hotel will be an unbeatable place to stay.

location excellent”
