The Artist Athens

This was our first trip to Athens, and we loved this hotel. We felt very secure. They were able to hold our luggage for us, which was helpful. The breakfast every morning was outstanding, with many options to choose from and all delicious. The rooftop bar and restaurant was very fun, with a fun of the Acropolis in the distance. The cocktails, food, and desserts were amazing. The elevator was a great help with luggage and all. The only thing that Inwould change, is that I would get the larger room. Ours was very small, even for just two people, space was at a premium but we made it work. Staff were always helpful, and we were treated very well. It was very convenient to several restaurants and bars down the alleyway. All very good!

We stayed at The Artist Athens hotel for three nights in September and loved it! It is a charming contemporary boutique hotel in a great part of the city - easy walking distance from the important sites and near lots of cool restaurants and bars. The rooms were clean and new and comfortable, and surprisingly quiet given we were under the rooftop bar/restaurant! The bar was lovely with a great view and you need to check it out. There are wine tastings and cooking classes that are highly recommended. The staff was wonderful, and there was a beautiful breakfast offered. We will definitely stay there on our next trip - thank you The Artist Athens!

This is a small hotel - well kept - very clean and modern, very friendly and the location is perfect - busy, buzzy and central. Breakfast from a menu rather than buffet - but good. Delicious restaurant on the top floor with great view of the lighted Acropolis at night. Great shower, comfortable beds. We stayed 10 nights. Only disadvantages: no room service, narrow streets. Highly recommended.

We had a fabulous stay at the Artist! The location is great, the rooms clean and comfortable, and the breakfasts were yummy. The rooftop restaurant with an amazing view of the Acropolis was an added bonus. I highly recommend staying at the Artist!

From checking in to checking out, we have seen nothing but friendliness, from front desk to breakfast staff. People there going out of their way to help and make our stay pleasant and comfortable. A big shoutout to Lampros whose knowledge of foods and restaurants gave us incredible recommendations for dinning around the hotel, made our staying in this hotel more enjoyable and standing out to any other hotels we had ever been.

We absolutely loved The Artist - it was a fabulous play to stay. Our room was a good size, well laid out and the shower was really effective. It is also a great location from which to see Athens and a fun part of town. The breakfasts were fabulous, the best I have had in a hotel. The fruit salad was always full with ripe fruit, the bread and pastries were so fresh and yummy and YOUR choice of main was always superb. But most of all, we loved the staff, they were so friendly and helpful, no matter the issues, they became like a second family.

Even better than the best reviews! Quite simply couldn’t fault this hotel. Young, highly professional and friendly staff make you welcome even at 2am when you check in from the 00:55am BA flight arrival. Exceptionally clean room that had one of the quietest, but still effective, air conditioning systems I’ve ever come across. No traffic or fellow guest noise either so had blissful sleep. Breakfast hits the spot. The rooftop bar is relaxing and I’m told the food is delicious but we didn’t have time to try. We went instead to the authentic taverna at the end of the street which has very long queues for a VERY good reason (🤫 it’s worth the wait). Stay here and you certainly shouldn’t regret it. My thanks go to ALL The Artist Team.

The Artist Athens was a delightful surprise. From the outside, you might not guess what a gem it is inside. The interior is modern, stylish, and full of character. The service was outstanding—Nikki in particular went above and beyond to make our stay extra special. Our room was good, comfortable, with excellent air conditioning and a powerful shower that washed away the fatigue of a long travel day. It felt safe and welcoming throughout. Although it’s officially rated as a 3-star hotel, it surpasses many 4-star properties I’ve stayed in—especially in terms of service, comfort, and atmosphere. One of the highlights is the rooftop: open to visitors, it features a fantastic restaurant and an astonishing view of the Parthenon. There’s controlled access to ensure guest privacy, which is a smart touch. Breakfast was tailored, fresh, and satisfying—just what you need to start the day. The location is right in downtown Athens, within a 15-minute walk of major sights including the Parthenon. Don’t miss the charm of the nearby backstreets, full of lively local restaurants and hidden gems. A truly memorable stay in the heart of the city.
