Fodor's Expert Review InnAthens

Five minutes' walk from Syntagma Square is this homey 20-room boutique hotel built from a renovated neoclassical building with minimalist decor, that draws travelers with its helpful, friendly service and great, included breakfast. Modern rooms feature a strong Greek marble and steel element, but the most winning element is certainly the cocoon-like courtyard that belonged to the original house but was given a thorough modern reinvention, where guests can bask in the sun surrounded by tranquilizing greenery and enjoy a homemade breakfast or read a book. Visitors rave about the attention to detail they encounter in every aspect of the hotel and its keen management. With close proximity to Syntagma, Monastiraki, Plaka, and the National Garden, InnAthens offers not only a chic but practical accommodation—and a wholly satisfying one, too.
