Filoxenia Hotel Athens

good for this price.

The staff were lovely and the price was right, however the balconey door did not lock, breakfast left a little to be desired and the area was not good, i felt unsafe walking on the steet at night.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was not in the city centre but there is a bus stop at the front door and the hotel was walking distance to the underground and overground trains. If you like walking you can walk to the city centre in about 30 minutes. The rooms were clean and functional. The included breakfast is basic. Basically you get what you pay for. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wants good cheap accomodation within easy public transport of the city and they don't need 5 star luxury or prices.

The bathroom at this hotel was in very poor condition

Filoxenia is an small and older hotel and seems to have had better days. Rooms are small but kept clean every day, incl. clean sheets on the bed and clean towels in the bathroom. Free internet, but works very, very slow, even without showing graphics. One of the things we found very bad was the noise you heard from other visitors (using bathroom en flushing toilet, opening and closing doors en walking past our room). We even heard the telephone in the room two floors down where a friend of us stayed. We were visiting "out of season", so only (small) breakfast was available.

the staff is verry friendly and willing with solving problems.The breakfast table was nicely.

The staff was exceptional, the location is in a rougher side of Athens, good for the price though........the owner needs to spend a little bit of money and renovate it........the staff are some of the nicest I have met in Europe...

Very reasonable hotel if you are travelling alone or with friends. May not be optimal with a family.

We booked two nights in Hotel Filoxenia, but on our arrival we were moved to the nearby Aristoteles Hotel due to defect lighting on the first floor. Hotel Aristoteles was of the same owner, but without a roof terrace and we got a very small room, which looked not even close to the picture in the brochure.

Good hotel to stay for a low price. all the services are good except for breakfast.

very nice service.

Pretty average, very old but cheap.

If you want to stay in Athens for 2-3 days of sightseeing- this hotel probably has the best low-cost offer combined with suitable living conditions. Location is great: 8 min walk from Omonia station - center of the city. Reception guys are VERY polite and provide you with all tourist info. Building is quite old and somewhere damaged, but still OK. Rooms are simple and clean, air condition saves your life. Bathrom is uncomfortable and towers are old, but you get what you pay for. Breakfast is english-standard. Summary: good choice for short time+low price bookings.

We wanted a cheap hotel close to Akropolis. It was nice and friendly, clean and air conditioning. There was a ½ hour walk to Akropolis passing local shops and cafés and the marked for meat and sea-food. Our only disapproval was the breakfast. (It was food...)

This Hotel was in need of redocorating. The bathrooms didn't even have plugs for the bath or basin. There were no brackets to hold the shower rose. The room air conditioning worked well. The staff were extremley helpful. It was located close to the Metro in a very dirty part of town. I would not stay there again and can't understand how it was given the 2 or 3 star rating. It was my worst accomodation in Europe.

Superb friendly service with excellent local knowledge of useful info. Thoroughly enjoyable stay.

Excellent reception service. Very friendly, helpfull, and courteous personel.

The hotel is nothing like the "brochure". No rooftop bar or breakfast buffet. Bathroom was dirty when we checked-in. Stains on carpet. TV did not work. Breakfast looked like it had been setting there all morning. On a good note - bed was comfortable & man at front desk was very nice & assisted us with directions.

If you get this hotel at a budget price (not the door price!) then it is pretty good value for Athens. Breakfast of coffee, juice, bread, gouda cheese slices, chopped ham, boiled eggs, marmalade was simple but fine (although curtains in dining room could do with a good clean!). Room was good size with balcony over street, perhaps badly painted , but fine. Location was perfect for local cheap bars & a nearby reasonable taverna (Dafni, 65 Ioulianou) and walking via Omonia Square, past meat, fish & veg markets to Monastiraki, Plaka & Acropolis (or take metro), with National Archaeological Museum very near.

A reasonable city budget hotel. Bathroom looked sad but clean. Room was clean with changed sheets daily. Our room overlooked rear service yard, however front facing rooms would have suffered from traffic noise. Good breakfast with boiled eggs, ham, cheese, coffeee, tea, juice etc. Not best location but buses and Metro not too far away. For value for money I would score this hotel 8 out of 10.
