Always smiley always helpful lovely food if I could pick the hotel up and put near beach id be back but the area is so run down with many addicts which as a mum bringing her child had me a little worried but I never worried while in the hotel always staff guarding the door

City Hotel, All staff were excellent, really helpful and friendly, one even walked down the road to organise a cab for us. As previous reviews advise, turn left as right you will soon see alot of Junkies, not really threatening anyone, but was upsetting especially if you have kids with you. Metro is 150mtrs away at roundabout, metro is clean easy to use, cheap and felt alot safer than London Tube. Tickets are cheap ,buy from machine in station, machines have an English language button in bottom left corner of screen.Hotel pool is great with amazing views of Acropolis, Bar staff were good, I was drinking Metaxa and coke, which they hadn't heard of,,,,but they all liked trying it after there shifts had finished. All in all a good hotel, good breakfast included and well placed to tour Athens.
