Athens Backpackers

Everything was perfect for me, I stayed for 4 nights. Clean room and toilet. No self bedding needed. Breakfast was enough for me. Location is very close to metro station and 5 to 15min walk to all sightseeings. Any time in Athens I book my bed here.

Just a brilliant hostel! The staff are super helpful. Allowed me to store my bike in the back garden and arranged a taxi to airport for me. Great breakfast. Rooftop bar with sunset views to Acropolis is just amazing. Comfortable beds.

Really good Hostel. It is very clean. The free breakfast is amazing. Its just some steps from the acropolis station and very central. If they would put a hairdryer in the bathrooms it would be perfect. Also has a cool rooftop bar. A more younger audience.

The hotel reception staff (female one) were rude and indifferent, at the end she help us somehow but with an uncomfortable and rude attitude (although the problem they have to solve cause from the room itself). Moreover we just asked an additional request whether the request is possible or not. We really dont like the reaction that we faced with, as a customer who paid for the service. We were very surprised that a receptionist (female one), who is the primary point of contact for customer greeting and satisfaction, could be so rude to a customer and act in a way that made you feel uncomfortable. We had prefered this hostel by looking its Google points; but most of the hostels around here are more friendly and caring.And more smiling receptionist.

Cool place with nice people in a great safe area near the Acropolis. Two female travelers, we felt very safe. Clean and kind staff from around the world. A great little rooftop with stunning views of the Acropolis. And great breakfast! The hotels in other parts of Athens are in a bad (ugly, sketchy) neighborhood. This one is just a few steps from the metro and it’s a really easy transfer from/to the airport.

You can see nice nignt scene of the acropolis at the roof,staff here is kind and generous,he helped to take photos for me and the landscape. Thank you ! Athens is the first city I chose to travel alone, because I think it’s safe for me. 2 days trip in Athens is definitely a good beginning, Backpackers always on the way. Looking forward to see you next time.

As every year I was in Athens Backpackers - I now come for about 10 years, maybe more, I know the location when it was totally different, when Walther was behind a small window, then we had times when there was a library where we now get breakfast. In older times the breakfast was at the Studios. Martin was not there, but Johny - we had nice talks at the evening, very cool. Maybe I should come to some RMB event in Athens he was showing to me. Or in december when prices are lower. Good place to meet new friends from all over the world.

The place is clean and location is very good. However, this is for backpackers only. Not suitable for families. The private rooms are very small and the additional beds are not fit for children. The elevator is suitable for 2 people only and not well maintained.
