Independent Syntagma Square hotels in Athens, Greece

We arrived at 9am from the island of rhodes, and they offered us breakfast and took our luggage as well as gave us directions to the places we wanted to get to that day. Came back at 3:30p and found the room to be satisfactory for the night and the luggage already in there which was a nice touch. Please note the rooms are small but enough, they are showing wear, but again, you aren't in Athens to spend time in your room. We had a quad which allowed us a balcony that if you stood at hte edge and looked over you could see the acropolis which was a nice view. We had an early flight and the owner came up to wake us as well as a phone call. He also had breakfast for us again despite it being 5am. If you are looking for a reasonable, friendly, place to stay this is it. I felt like I had went to an uncle's home for the night. It was a nice end to a great vacation.

We only stayed for one night but the staff were excellent. The facilities of the hotel were great which included a really well good gym with brand new equipment. The rooftop bar/restaurant also gave us a great view of Athens.

Very good location at Syntagma squere, close by walking to all tourist atractions. Easy to get to the hotel by train or by bus. The hotel is very clean, the management are very kind and polite, free wi-fi everywhere in the hotel, including in the rooms. Excellent breakfast with wide range of food.

This was a short business trip but the hotel was really well located for all of the local sights. Very friendly staff - true for all of Athens. Did not use the restaurants so cannot express any opinion.

Location is ideal, near Syntagma, I have been visiting Athens periodically for several years and for a reasonably priced hotel the Cypria is the best I've had, everything in the room was in good condition and working, decor was good and service was excellent.

great location five minutes walk to town. buses from town will get you to all the beaches. nice restaurants for outdoor breakfasts and dinner. very friendly people and traditional homes .

Hi, This hotel is located at the beginning of the street mall a minute wall from syntagama and a minute walk from all other great location like Plaka, acropolis, monistiraki train etc. The room though a bit small is beautiful, has a boutique look. The view we got wasn't the best though. Breakfast is very similar to many other hotels like Amalia and Central Athens hotel. If I need to rate breakfast it'll be: 1. Amalia 2. Electra 3. Central Athens hotel - Really small gap between them.

Nice hotel, very clean and staff is very nice, but there is no view of the acropolis. The AC in our room worked, but it never got the temp below 26 C. Which considering the fact is was 35 C outside, it didnt ruin our stay. The safe is actually big enough for a laptop. The last two hotels I stayed at with "Laptop Safes" were so small and oddly shaped that they couldnt even fit my passport wallet. All the other small gripes my wife and I had were the same at all 5 hotels we stayed at in Europe: the elevator was so small that I had to send my wife with our two bags in it and I walked up the stairs, the shower is more of a tub then a shower [by that I mean that there is no shower curtain so when you do take a shower the water is all over the place], etc.

We stayed in Athens Diamond Hotel before going on a cruise. We were very impressed. It had been renovated and only opened for 6 months before we got there. If you like modern this is the place to stay. The breakfast had everything you could ask for. John at the front desk was very helpful. The only thing we had a problem with is the taxi from the airport. He overcharged us and we found out later that we should not have paid him and gone into the hotel for help. You never know as you are a tourist and not used to the ways of another country. Otherwise we would stay there and hopefully next time ..... longer.

The hotel was in a perfect location for site seeing. We were able to walk to everything we wanted to see in the city center in minutes. Hotel was very modern and clean. Breakfast was very nice and plenty of variety. I would definitely stay there again. There is a bar almost directly across the street and it stays loud and busy until well after 4am, but found that shutting the window, and being exhausted from walking all day was no problem sleeping. Nice beds, clean room, plenty of closet and dresser space. Shower was phone booth size but not really a problem. Nice staff, excluding one guy at the front desk, but he was just a little cranky-not to bad.
