The 6 Best Hotels in Athens (Updated 2025)

"In Exarcheia I found the cozy and affordable Dryades & Orion Hotel to have a lively student-vibe neighborhood with lots of street art; the hotel offers many room configurations and exceptionally helpful staff. Rooms are sizable with unique, homey décor and eclectic furniture plus standard mid-range amenities (air conditioning, tea/coffee makers, mini fridges). It’s worth paying a bit extra for the homecooked breakfast buffet, which features local cuisine and is served on the rooftop garden with a great view of the Acropolis." - Matthew Kepnes
