Acropolis City Life BH
Athens

AMAZING! The hotel - the staff - the view - the location - the breakfast - the amenities - AWESOME! They go above and beyond! After a day out going back to the hotel we felt like we were coming home!! So friendly! We travel alot and when we were out and about we would talk about how great the hotel is - say things like no other place does things like that…

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. And I want to begin by talking about the service and staff here. From the moment I walked in, the welcome was so warm, I felt right at home (Thank you Christina). And every interaction with the reception (including chats with Christina, Evi and Evangelos who is the owner/manager) was SO friendly. They're all just so nice and human. Even the brief encounters with the breakfast staff and the housekeeping staff were extremely pleasant. The most overwhelming moment was after I asked Christina to research a local bakery for me where they sell specific type of cookies, she asked for an hour to get me the info and an hour later, instead of the info, she had BOUGHT a box of cookies for me. No charge! This is service like no other and SUPER nice of her. The room is nicely sized, the furniture and decor is minimalistic but artistic with a few large mirrors (which is always a treat), a fridge and tea/coffee making facilities. The bathroom is well-designed and has all the things you need (including a hairdryer), and the rain shower is great (also nice and hot). Their breakfast is more than adequate (only suggestion would be to keep veggie stuff away from meaty stuff, because when it's in the same food warmer, it feels contaminated). But the best thing here is that all the cakes and pastries, juices and yogurts, water and coffee machine etc are available all day long for guests to help themselves. This is a rarity in any hotel - and such a wonderful touch that allows guests to feel 'at home'. Finally the location - it's barely 2min walk from Monastiraki station (which connects directly to the airport), right at one end of Ermou (which is a big shopping street) and so close to many popular restaurants and cafes. You could stay here without needing to take the metro for any local excursions, including the Parthenon. And the views from the rooftop are mindblowing.

April 2025 We had reservations beginning April 9th, 2025 but the Greek air traffic controllers went on strike so our flight from Seattle was cancelled, and we couldn’t get another one for two days. We contacted Acropolis City Life to cancel our reservation and they refused. Acropolis City Life said simply “declined” and stiffed us out of more than $1000. We made two requests and they refused to help us at all. All our tours and dinner reservations cancelled with understanding, but Acropolis City Life wouldn’t even talk to us. Incredibly unethical.

Lovely staff, great location full of life close to Monastiraki metro station and square. Ideal for exploring the ancient sites with a convenient retreat. Excellent value. Would stay here again. Rooms modern and clean, good hot water, split system air-con. Chose Monastiraki as convenient for the metro to both the airport and Pireaus ferry port, so a great place to overnight en route,

The staff were vey kind and always ready to react to my request. The food including water which were in dining room were all free. The location was fantastic as we can easily walk to Acropolis in 20min through Monastraki square.

The panorama is unbelievable from the roof and the penthouse suite looks amazing. Rooms are clean and cozy. Staff extremly kind and helpful. We had an unexpected situation and we had to go to a hospital. Vangelis (the owner) and the hotel staff were extremely helpful. This is a real hospitality. If you are in trouble, you can realize who is your real friend....and they were. We never forget this! ❤️ If we visit to Athen aytime, this is our place because we know that we count on these people. Thanks for everything, we keep you in our heart

The receptionist Christina was absolutely amazing - she helped with restaurant bookings (and requested tables with the best views!), sightseeing recommendations and printing my boarding pass - she was so happy to see you every time you came in or out. [Huge thanks to her!] There is free bottled water which is brilliant when you can't drink the tap water. The room is very comfortable with air conditioning. The location is great - 5 minutes from Monastiraki Square/Station which is a central hub to get anywhere and an abundance of restaurants in Psyrri.

We enjoyed the genuine warmth and kindness from the staff; they ensured that we were always comfortable and were happy to assist in anything. Kristina took care of our luggage and the other staff members were equally helpful. We were excited that the hotel is central located to great sights and restaurants. Our suite had an amazing view of the Acropolis and the room was spacious. Overall, we highly recommend this hotel for its location and wonderful staff!

Location staff were professional polite welcomingThe owner Vangeli reception Constadina and the rest of the team team treated us like family from the moment we stepped into the hotelWe were welcomed with a bottle of wine and refreshments to enjoy on the roof top with a sensational view of the AcropolisEven on the of check out the owner team were present to oversee our departure and organized our transport to the airportHighly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting AthensLooking forward to staying there again

This boutique hotel is an amazing little oasis in the heart of downtown Athens. Breakfast was incredible and the entire place was immaculate. The rooftop bar/patio was such a nice place to gaze at the Acropolis each day. The staff helped us when we really needed it. Highly recommend this place to anyone travelling to Athens.
