Exarhia hotels

Great hotel, really helpful staff and good location. Caught the hop on bus a block up the street and ate at several of the cafes at the square about 3 blocks away. Would stay here again next time we are in Athens.

When choosing a hotel for my three nights in Athens I wanted to avoid the noisy touristy neighborhoods and the seedy area around Omonia. The Proteus fit the bill and offered a good rate. It is rather a long walk to the nearest metro station, Ambelokipi, and a longer walk to the center of Athens. But I am a walker, so no problem there. The hotel is nice, modern, not too big. The neighborhood is mostly residential. The décor of my room looked like something that belonged in a brothel -- red carpeting and pink furniture, but for a few nights it was fine. The hotel does not offer breakfast but there are cafés, even a Starbucks around the corner. On my next visit to the wonderful city of Athens I wold like to stay somewhere closer.

A second stay at the Aeros Hotel, Athens. Just as good as the first - highly recommended!

I did not feel safe walking the 8 blocks or so from the Omonia metro station to the hotel late at night. streets were deserted except for a couple shady characters. The man behind the desk did not speak English, but was very sweet and helpful. My room was clean and functional but tiny (about the size of the double bed). It would have been hard to do anything but sleep, which was fine for me since I got in late and needed to sleep off the jet lag.
