Poor sound insulation. Can hear conversations next door and in hallway. Tv and remote did not work. Decent value for price otherwise

We communicated with the hotel about our flight being delayed and they replied about waiting for us to check in which was reassuring and got us into our rooms at 2 AM. Breakfast was fantastic and relaxed. The area around the hotel was fun with shopping, restaurants and easy access to historical sites. The staff was friendly and competent. Thank you, Adams Hotel.

DO NOT RECOMMEND!
The room (and i believe whole hotel) was supposed to be nonsmoking, but when I got there, my room smelled like an ashtray, bed, towels, curtains, etc. There was also an ashtray in the room, so it probably shouldnt have been listed as "nonsmoking." It was also dirty, with mold all over the bathroom, only a single sheet on the bed so it was freezing. Lastly, while some staff clearly knew what was going on, the guy at check in told me to use the elevator, which later On the upper floors it had labels not to use the elevators because people were getting stuck inside. That seemed like a fire hazard in addition to the locking doors to get in and out without a lot of guidance on how to get out (it was a small silver button to the side of the door), also a fire hazard.

FIRST OF ALL ALL OF OUR ROOMS ARE NON SMOKING, FOR THE SINGLE SHEET INSIDE THE CLOSET THERE ARE BLANKETS,IG YOU COULD NOT FIND IT YOU HAD TO ASK THE RECEPRION!ALSO FOR THE ELEVATOR BY THAT TIME THE AREA HAD BLACK OUTS THATS WHY WE PUT THE PAPER ON THE ELEVATOR FOR YOU OWN SAFETY.AT LAST WITH THE CHECK IN ME AND MY COLLEAGUES INFORM THE GUESTS HOW TO USE THEIR CODES AND HOW THE DOORS WORK!I BELIEVE THAT YOUR REVIEW WAS UNTRUE AND OFFENSIVE!BECAUSE FOR EVERYTHING THAT YOU SAID WAS A SOLUTION BUT YOU NEVER ASKED OUR HELP!

The view was prefect and the walking distance was perfect. You don’t need a car at all everything that you needed was a in walking distance the Adams Hotel was nice and safe they had security door that means you had to key in a code to go in the hotel without the code you won’t get in the hotel. The room was big enough for family of four but the complaint was the bathroom was small and the beds was hard. There was breakfast on cite. I do recommend the restaurant Mythos it was so good my kids had Greek salad French fries stuff grape leaves octopus and cod fish with garlic sauce and vegetables and lots of fresh bread. The price was reasonable.

The hotel location is excellent, with a partial view of the Acropolis. The manager Mike went out of his way to ensure we had everything we needed. He even gave us a wakeup call even though we did not request one, just to ensure we didn't miss our early flight!!

A small hotel in a nice part of the Plaka. There is group of benches just outside adjacent to a small espresso stand that the locals gather. It's fifty steps from a group of charming outdoor restaurants and the Acropolis is pithing walking distance. Nothing fancy, just nice.

Disrespectful Staff and Sweltering Room
When my husband and I checked in, the front desk clerk gave us the only room on the ground floor. The room was dark and only had two very narrow windows that were opaque and could not be seen through. After complaining about the room persistently, the clerk finally was able to come up with another room. This room was bright and had glass doors leading to a little patio. However, the air conditioning did not work properly and my we found the room sweltering when we returned to our room the first night. When we complained to the night clerk, he lectured us about using the remote control incorrectly. This is absurd since we have a similar heating and cooling system at home. We followed the instructions the next day - again without success. The bottom line is that the system does not work properly. My husband and I DO NOT recommend this hotel.

The Adams Hotel is a 3 minute walk to entrance to the Acropolis. The service at the hotel was great. There was a good of items for breakfast. We loved the night time of the Acropolis on the rooftop terrace. I would definitely recommend this hotel to others.

Our room had a partial view of the Acropolis, which was nice. If we were allowed to go to the roof for the view in the pic we had no idea you could do that. The breakfast was the standard Athens fare. The room was big enough with a good size bathroom and a little tiny two person elevator for those who can’t do stairs. The location was very good if you like the Plaka area.

nice hotel, great roof top with acropolis views for hanging out and having a beer after walking around all day. Rooms have A/C, small porch, very basic mattress but good enough for the price. within walking distance of just about everything. lots of shopping and places to eat nearby, Plaka is a nice place to stay when in Athens. Did not purchase breakfast thru hotel, it starts at 8am if you do, not much open in the area before 730 either. great hotel for the price if you plan on spending the days seeing the sights and walking around athens.

Thats what i want for a Hotel Stay.
We had a short stay in Athen en route to Italy and selecting Adams hotel was a perfect choice. I love the marble flooring of the hotel. It looks so neat and clean. The ambience of the hotel is so warm and light. Enough comfort in the room for a cold spring night with a tiny but clean bathroom. The place is just walking distance away from tourist spot. An excellent choice in terms of location. Just might want to consider walking around and be surprised of what you can find. The souvenir shops are just in the neighborhood and consider trying restaurant just next to the hotel for an excellent meal. The breakfast was pleasing.

Nice small hotel in the Placa
Nice little hotel so close to the Placa and 10 minutes to Syntagma Square for buses and metro. I had a single person room with double bed that was a little harder than I like but it was newer and might be to other people’s liking. The bathroom had a tiny shower but hey that’s Europe- not easy to shave legs without getting water on the floor. Room was clean and staff were super helpful with restaurant suggestions And arranging a taxi to airport $40. Nice roof terrace view of Acropolis. Breakfast was decent so overall a great stay for a short trip. My friend also had a single person room and was all pleased. The air conditioning was GREAT and it was 95f while we were there. It’s a little hidden off main road so have directions ready

Adams Hotel has a lovely view from the top/roof! The room however was tiny with a hard bed a 17 inch tv that is way to high on the wall. The shower was busted ( I had to fix it my self!) the whole bathroom is 4x4 feet. and the shower is small even for a kid! The trash still had whippings from the last tenet! So, Great view and terrible room!

Really enjoyed this hotel. Was a great location in the Plato’s district! On a quiet corner, easy to find and central to the ruins. Safe and beautiful to walk around at night - great patio on the roof to grab a bottle of wine and watch the sunset. If you’re used to a European breakfast it will be perfect, if you’re not forego the breakfast and find a nice spot in the district! We would definitely stay here again if we are ever in Athens!
