Hermes Hotel

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is absolutely fantastic (a huge selection of foods both hot and cold). Most of all though, this hotel could not be in a better location! You are within a short walking distance to Syntagma Square and metro station, Monastiraki shops and metro station, Plaka, a plethora of restaurants, Hadrian's Library, the ancient Agora, and are just down the hill from the Acropolis. Also, the rooftop patio is incredible with an amazing view of the Acropolis. The rooftop restaurant at the sister hotel, Hotel Plaka, was fantastic. Nice lounge area and lobby.

Amazing hotel, Friendly staff. Perfect location, close to everything, clean rooms. Have stayed before and definitely would stay again. breakfast was good as-well.

Travelled with 1 unrelated friend. Superior twin room with a balcony (18m2 according to Bkg.com) was a bit tight, but adequate. Balcony would be great in high season; a bit too cool in Nov. Breakfast buffet was ample and had most choices you would want (though after visiting many hotels subsequently, the specific items are forgotten). Location is exceptional! 10 minutes walk from airport bus or metro, and same or even less to the Roman Agora and other ancient archaeological sites. 1 - 5 minutes to a grand assortment of restaurants and shops in Plaka. Other hotels might be as good, but none are better. Hotel not lavish, but quiet, clean, comfortable, and convenient. Recommended.

The hotel’s location is fantastic, perfectly situated close to the main attractions, making it super convenient for exploring the area and even for reaching the Acropolis. Everything was impeccably clean and the buffet breakfast was excellent, offering a selection of both Greek specialties and continental dishes. There were several options for vegetarians, but I would suggest adding a few more vegan choices to make it even better. Everyone from the staff was exceptionally friendly, but a special shoutout goes to Dimitra. Her warm smile and attentive care in the breakfast room in the morning made all the difference. She ensured every guest was well taken care of and was always ready with helpful suggestions for sightseeing. Well done to the entire team at Hermes Hotel. I would highly recommend this hotel and look forward to staying here again!

Having not stayed in a hotel in Athens for several years (the scourge of AirBnB), it was a nice discovery to find a decent, centrally-located place. On checking in, I could see my room had obviously been upgraded (to a top-floor terrace room), which was much appreciated. But it was very windy during my stay and I physically could not fully close the door on exiting the room. Luckily the lovely man at reception promptly helped with that and I knew that I had to be forceful henceforth! All the staff were very nice, with someone checking during (the very decent) breakfast how my (and other guests') stay was going. It was very comfortable and I would have no hesitation to book here again. Ευχαριστώ πολύ!
