Acropolis City Life BH
Athens

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.

This quaint boutique hotel is the best place to stay in Athens! The staff are most helpful, rooms are very nice, comfortable and on a quiet little street. Convenient location and very walkable to everywhere. Thank you fir making our first trip to Athens very comfortable and friendly!!!

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.

Amazing central location, really good size rooms with free water bottles available. Super friendly and helpful staff. Clean rooms and the air conditioner worked great, we needed it the heat wave. Very comfy bed too

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.

Great central location, only 5 mins walk from the metro station. Very spacious and clean rooms with great facilities and comfy bed. Great breakfast selection. Very friendly and helpful receptionists! The views from the rooftop terrrace are unbeatable!

Breakfast was excellent with a good selection of different options. The hotel location was perfect. The rooms (we stayed on two occasions) were both really clean, modern and comfortable. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly.

The hotel - which is very good located - has a fantastic calming atmosphere. This wonderful atmosphere is because of the enormous heart of the owner and the exceptionally helpful staff. We enjoyed the breathtaking view from the roof, the delicious breakfasts, coffee with almond/soy/rice milk, thank you for it :), the clean and cosy rooms, and that the receptionists had always some kind words and a smile to us. Unfortunately we had to go to the hospital. The helpfulness and the support from the owner Vangelis and the whole staff was amazing and much more than I could write it in words

This hotel is incredible. The reception is super competent and extra friendly. They have the best breakfast I ever encountered in the whole of my trip through 4 islands + Athens, in Greece. The view from their rooftop at night is insane. In the same street, you find the most magical pastry shop ever full of Alice in Wonderland themed deco. Just book it!
