COLORS Hotel Athens

We found this hotel on Expedia, and paid a little over £200 for three nights including breakfast. We found the hotel easily having followed the website's directions from Athens airport. Kostas welcomed us to the hotel, and gave us lots of details regarding places to eat and the city sight seeing bus. All the staff were really friendly, especially the young lad at breakfast, and greeted us each time we came back to the hotel and wished us a good day/evening when we went out. The hotel itself is clean and well presented, and well located for all the main attractions. I agree with other reviews saying don't let the surrounding area put you off at all, we always felt safe walking around at night. It's an easy 15-20min walk to Syntagma Square and only another 5-10 to the Acropolis and the Plaka area, the nearest metro station is Panepistimio which is only about a 5 mins walk. The room was lovely, the bed and pillows were really comfy. It also had a proper hairdryer, not one of those useless built in ones you usually find in hotels. We loved the spacious riser shower too. Breakfast was also excellent, there was a choice of cooked items, similar to an English breakfast, plus warm pastries, cereal, fruit, yoghurt and cheeses and meats. We would 100% stay again if we come back to Athens. Thank you to all the staff for a wonderful stay!

Wonderful staff, from the reception (we loved you, Biorka) to the housekeeping. They were all amazingly supportive and kind. The hotel is beautifully decorated. The room was spaceous and clean. The bed very comfortable. We (family with 2 kids) can only recommend.

Very nice hotel in the centre of Athens in the neighbourhood of the university. Ideal either for business or holiday trips. The rooms are very confortable and the service provided at the hotel is amazing. Stefanos, Maria and Kostas have immediately been welcoming, friendly and available for us, taking care of making our stay the best possible. I also recommend the very good breakfast (including delicious tiropites) kindly prepared by Sofia and Dimitris. Note that the hotel aims at ecological effort and if you accept one day of room cleaning, you get free drink for the bar. What should I say other than : bomba !

We recently stayed in the penthouse suite at this incredible hotel in Athens, and it exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the service staff was warm and attentive, and the suite itself was absolutely perfect.||||We opted for the breakfast package and did not regret it. The buffet was absolutely incredible with an impressive variety of breakfast foods, all fresh and beautifully presented. From flaky pastries and fresh fruit to savory Greek specialties and made-to-order coffee, every morning felt like a feast. It was the perfect way to start each day.||||The location is perfect and is within walking distance to some of the attractions and great restaurants. ||||If you're considering a stay in Athens and want a truly elevated experience, we can't recommend this hotel enough. The penthouse and breakfast combo made our trip truly special.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. Everything was very clean and well maintained, and the location is excellent—close to everything and very convenient. The rooms are not only comfortable but also beautifully designed, with great attention to detail. What really made the experience special was the staff: always friendly, welcoming, and happy to help at any time. A special thank you to Kostas, Maria, Stefanos, Sophia, and Dimitris for their kindness and professionalism. Highly recommended, and we would definitely stay here again!

A couple, who stayed 3 nights at this charming hotel, and we really recommend it. The hotel is designed with a modern and practical style, very chic and colorful. The deluxe room we stayed in was very comfortable and indulgent/pampering. The staff was very kind, helpful, and nice—everyone of them :) The breakfast was basic, but tasty and sufficient/satisfying. The hotel's location is simply wonderful. Not far from the center but in a cool neighborhood with lots of graffiti, good restaurants, and vibrant nightlife. The only tip I can give the hotel owners is to add an awning/cover to the wonderful balcony so that it can be used even on rainy days

I really wanted to love this hotel because it looks fantastic in the photos — modern, stylish, something a bit different. Unfortunately, there were so many issues during our stay that I couldn’t return or recommend it.||To start with the positives: the gentleman who checked us in was outstanding — friendly, welcoming and full of helpful recommendations. The breakfast was also great for a hotel of this size, with a good variety and excellent coffee.||However, our room had a persistent sewage smell from the moment we arrived, which did not improve over our 3-night stay. I later heard another guest raising the same issue and being told that she should simply keep the windows open if it bothered her.||We also discovered that one of the curtains was missing, leaving half the window uncovered. When I reported it to reception, I was met with an incredibly rude and dismissive response. I was told there was nothing to be done, the hotel was full and we would have to manage. Only when I asked about a refund so we could move hotels did the tone suddenly change — a supervisor was clearly contacted, and very quickly a solution appeared. A barman arrived to install a curtain taken from another room. It was the wrong size, but at least allowed us some sleep. I just wish I hadn’t been made to feel as though I was the problem for raising a genuine issue.||Our room was also directly beside the elevator, which meant constant corridor noise. Combined with the uncomfortable beds and pillows, we slept very poorly.||Overall, this hotel has potential — it looks great and breakfast is impressive — but the maintenance issues and poor attitude from some staff completely overshadowed the positives. If you do choose to stay here, I strongly recommend requesting a high floor to reduce road noise and a room well away from the elevators.

We had a great stay here . The family room is well set up and the kids loved the bunk beds - all beds very comfy and robes a nice touch . Yes the rooms are compact but the location , price and experience are all excellent . The staff are lovely and friendly , a very plentiful breakfast and a serviced bar through the day and evening as well . Kids loved some of the fun elements including the writing wall and games . Location is excellent - with lovely neighbourhood cafes and restaurants that serve delicious food and drink at very reasonable non tourist prices don’t be put off by the graffiti we felt perfectly safe walking around the area. It’s the perfect base for sightseeing in Athens . Thank you we had a lovely stay .
