Hermes Hotel was amazing! The staff was super helpful. The property was very clean. The room was lovely, and I even had my own balcony! The complimentary breakfast was lovely. Everything about the place is great. It is located very close to many of the main attractions of old city Athens. Aspro Alogo is a lovely restaurant just down the street. Lycabettus hill is merely a stroll away. There is no reason not to stay here!

Great location, every easy to go around to most of the important attractions. Front desk staff was very nice and friendly. We reached there around 8.30 am and were able to keep our bags and came back around 12pm, our room was ready. Breakfast was good, enough stuffs. Hop on bus stop is 5 minutes away. If we go there again we will stay there because of the location. and also recommend this hotel.

Good Place for the Price

This is a solid to a good place to stay. The location is great. They served breakfast...we stayed at a few locations in Athens, Crete and Santorini and this was our least favorite breakfast. I might even say it was a bad breakfast.This place was perfect for our 1 night stay, anytime past 2 nights, might be a bit much.

Due to flights delays, we arrived at the hotel in the middle of the night. The person at the reception was courteous, clear and helpful. The room was small and the air conditioning was too cold, but it was very clean and quiet with a nice little terrace I cannot comment about the surrounding area, the service and the breakfast as we had to rush out of bed to catch our cruise ship. If I were to return to Athens, I would definitely go to this hotel again
