NLH MATI Seafront - Neighborhood Lifestyle Hotels
Beautiful views, clean room. Especially impressed with the breakfast and breakfast staff. Do not recommend the buffet dinner as value just isn’t there compared to the great breakfast, as there isn’t as much variety or even drinks included yet costs a lot. Dinner staff also seemed not interested. ...

Astor Hotel Athens
Good location, excellent staff and fantastic view of the Acropolis from the breakfast area and bar. Easy walking distance to airport train, main shopping street and tourist attractions. There is an active nightlife close by so can be noisy, but that goes with being so central.
