Athens Lights

Room was good & amenities in decent location to city centre. Walking distance to Omonia & Plaka. Only issue was a bar downstairs with loud musics / noise on a Wednesday night until 6am - couldn’t sleep.

Great stay in a great location. Very friendly staff large comfortable accommodation and a quiet place to stay in a lively, central area of Athens. Good value for money. I would readily return. Really enjoyed this stay.

Spent 2 nights in early September 2022 upon the recommendation of my cousin, who lives across the street. The neighborhood, although in transition, was quiet and safe, the grafitti makes it seem edgy, kind of like the NYC East Village in the mid-1980s, but not dangerous. The room was quiet, clean and well appointed with lovely decor and a comfortable bed and linens with a/c controlled by a wand. I didn't hear a thing and enjoyed coming and going, a few steps away I ate a lovely delicious breakfast at the little outdoor cafe 2 mornings in a row and observed Athenians going to work. Highly recommend and thank Antonnis S. for his gracious generosity.

The property was decent but the surrounding area was awful. Needless to say, that’s not the hotel’s fault, but would not recommend it for that reason.

The safe box is not fixed on the wall. It is a small shoe box size safe, left freely unattached on the table counter behind the door. Easily displaced and carried. I have asked the lady to replace it with one that had a key as the one in my room didn’t, and asked her to ask the management to consider fixing it to the wall as I needed to store my valuables during the 7 nights I had booked in the hotel. My passport, some documents I was preparing for my upcoming conference and which I did not want to lose, and some cash. The lady said it was not the hotel’s policy to fix the safes on the walls so there was no point from changing my room and she literally said “just don’t put gold in it”!! I was shocked! She was literally telling me it’s not safe and the management won’t do anything about it! I had to carry all my valuables with me all day touring Athens and it was very stressful. When I returned to the room at night, nothing was done and the safe was kept free on the counter table. I have left the room at around 8:30pm without checking out and went to another hotel in city center. I have disputed with *********** the no free cancellation policy and asked for a refund. My request is still being processed (this happened last night, march 9) and I am awaiting an answer from Athens Lights management. Felt unsafe and unsecure.

Nice clean room

Siamo stati 3 notti in questo hotel e ci siamo trovati molto bene. Avevamo una camera all'ultimo piano, con ampia terrazza che non abbiamo sfruttato molto in quanto ad agosto fa veramente molto caldo, ma fortunatamente l'aria condizionata è sempre stata perfettamente funzionante. La struttura è pulita ed il ragazzo della reception è molto cordiale. Per noi, che siamo una coppia giovane, Exarcheia è uno dei pochi quartieri di Atene che vale la pena visitare, non invaso da negozi di souvenir, con pochi turisti, ottimi ristoranti a prezzi bassissimi e buoni locali dove passare la serata.

Le personnel est sympathique. L'hôtel est propre et confortable le seul bémol c'est qu'à partir du vendredi jusqu'au dimanche en bas il y a de la musique du bars d'en face jusqu'à très tard le soir 4h du coup impossible de dormir. La dame nous a fait changer de chambre pour les deux dernière nuits pour avoir un peu moins de nuisance sonore vu que nous avons séjourné du vendredi au lundi dans l'hôtel. La chambre avec balcon n'est vraiment pas la même que sur les photos du site concernant le balcon.
