Pella Inn Hostel - Ermou 104

Best Hostel in Athens. Good Stuffs, best central Location, best Acropolis View direct from Bed. Will come again..?????

This is a super basic hotel that only offers the bare necessities, but the location and the kindness of the staff can’t be beat! Things to note: there is a communal fridge available on the first floor, unluckily our food was stolen from the fridge, but that’s not the hotel’s fault. Air conditioning works great and the rooftop is amazing!! We are coming back to Athens again after our time on the islands and plan to stay here again :)

GR/ES/EN Θα μπορούσε να είναι καταπληκτικό! Podría ser increíble It could be an amazing place Friendly lobby staff, good location, good price. Stayed at a double room. View was great. AC, fridge existed. But a plug almost was falling out. The remote control of the AC didn’t work - so I plugged it out. The balcony could have been AMAZING. Really a shame some green was obsolete. A bit of transformation and I could have stayed there forever

My Athens friend recommended this hotel due to the location and price. We paid for the balcony room. We didn't read the reviews so you can imagine my excitement when I walked onto the balcony and saw the most incredible view of the Acropolis in town. It's even better from the rooftop. Worth every penny. Yes, rooms are small, but they are clean and comfortable and who really cares you'll spend all your time on the balcony (pro-tip, shop next door sells plastic stools for 5euro, I bought one and spent the next 4 days sipping coffee and wine looking at that view sitting down) The location couldn't have been better, make sure to check out the neighborhood behind the hotel too, tons of great streets, shops and restaurants there too. And the service, every single person was extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Our cat Bob, also liked the balcony and attention he received from the staff. For the price, this is the best deal in Athens if views, location and service are important.

Before I talk about the general features of the hotel, I would like to tell you about my reservation story. I reserved the room weeks in advance as it was offered as an opportunity in the Booking. Before I checked in, I saw that the same room was sold for 20 Euros cheaper on the same dates in the Booking app. I explained the situation to the hotel and demanded a discount. The hotel official did not accept my request. As a customer, I felt cheated. Do not book this hotel in advance. Wait until the last day because they are lowering the prices. Then you feel cheated. The room given to us smelled heavily of cigarettes. There was a distinct odor of cigarettes even though the property is non-smoking. Our room was definitely not clean. Dust flew through the air, making it difficult to breathe. We had to clean and disinfect the room ourselves. We didn't ask for any room cleaning afterwards either. There is no apparatus in the bathroom to attach the shower head to the wall. You have to take a shower with a shower head in one hand. This shower head is also broken, so it leaks water. The most important thing about the bathroom is that the water suddenly gets very hot during the shower. It gets hot enough to cause minor burns or to fall with your reaction. The air conditioner in the room works as loud as an old bus and does not do its job properly. If you are a light sleeper, it is very difficult to sleep with the air conditioner running. The good things about the hotel are its location and view. If there is any other alternative, I do not recommend this place.

Lovely rooftop view of the area and Acropolis. The staff were really friendly and helpful, the rooms were cleaned regularly, the shower was hot, plenty of windows for ventilation, and many different rooms, all with aircon.

It’s a great location near Monastiraki metro. We had an apartment with an amazing Acropolis’s view. Liked this place. By the way we were exploring the roof ! It’s incredible! Thanks for hospitality:)

The room was clean, small and not well maintained. Bath and toilet are actually tiny (our bath door was locked and the cilinder fell apart). But they had very fast hot water, the staff was amazing. They offered us to move to another room. Porch on roof top can use a little more furniture in better condition, but the Acropolis view with a cold beer in your hand is indescribable. Unforgotten, and all other superlative
