Fodor's Expert Review Athens Center Square

Aristogeitonos 15, Athens, Attica, 10552, Greece

This surprisingly peaceful, modern hotel nevertheless blends nicely into the iconic, bustling landscape of the Athens Central Market. It is located at the bottom end of the mostly pedestrianized square, where street vendors sell their produce right outside, adding a colorful touch. And speaking of color, the hotel is lit up at night in stripes of blue, green, and yellow. Inside, it is clean and well-maintained, offering nice complimentary touches for this price level that include free refreshments, free access to a computer and printing facilities in the lobby, and free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel. All the basic room amenities required for a pleasant city break (five minutes' walk from Monastiraki Square) are available (including air-conditioning and a mini-refrigerator).
