What guests think
At Ulysses Apartments Acropolis, travellers highlight an excellent, walkable location by the Acropolis and metro, clean and spacious apartments—many with balconies and views—and generally responsive hosts, with easy self check in via codes or an app and flexible arrangements.
Guests often describe units as quiet and comfortable, with family friendly layouts and standout Acropolis vistas from penthouse terraces. Several mention a delivered breakfast they enjoyed, though coffee can cost extra. Drawbacks include occasional access hiccups, some fees or delays for early entry, a very small elevator, and sporadic maintenance or bathroom quirks; one guest reported a serious door error. Expect self-serve apartments in a prime spot rather than full hotel services.

The apartment was a little difficult to find and it is not a hotel and the building has signs that you see only when you are in front of the door. Other than that, everything was quite smooth. It is a 2 minute walk from the Acropoli Metro Station and is surrounded by great restaurants and walking areas. I would stay here again.

The location is excellent — truly one of the best. However, there was no opportunity to meet any staff or employees in person. We received instructions for the room and door code via email. As is typical with many old buildings in Athens, the elevator only fits one person at a time. The overall maintenance felt outdated but dependable. Shampoo and conditioner were provided, but the dispensers didn’t work, making them unusable. The most shocking experience happened on the first night. While we were sleeping, a couple opened our door and entered the room. It was past 11 PM, and we were extremely startled. This is a serious safety issue. The couple, who seemed to be Americans in their mid-60s (based on assumption), were also very embarrassed. We complained to the hotel, and they apologized the next day, saying it was a system error. The apology was only verbal — sent via email — and they said they would send wine as an apology, but that promise was never fulfilled. The listing advertised a view of the Acropolis, but not all rooms have this. Our room had no view, as it faced the narrow space between buildings. In the end, the location was the only good thing about this place. We’ll choose a different place next time..

Excellent location. Minutes walk to Acropolis. Close to cafes and restaurants. We paid for early check in but the code to the room wasn’t activated. I had to call and the gentleman was quick to the room to correct the issue. Keep in mind there isn’t a front desk situation:)

Location is good, but terrible otherwise. Host didn't send codes to access building and apartment 24 hrs in advance as described. After I landed in Athens, I emailed and texted multiple times on the way to the place. No response. After got to the place, banged on building door in the middle of night in a new city, no response! Finally got him on the phone to get the codes. He upgraded me to a bigger apt, but it was still bad. Bathroom was in terrible condition, tiny, walls were dirty with stains around the toilet, water splashed out on the floor when showering no matter how careful you were. It was so slippery I fell and hurt myself. Heater didn't work. Neither did wall AC unit. Host turned on heat remotely. Kind of creepy. Even more creepy was the automatic door lock activated multiple times each night, making noise loud enough to wake you up. I thought someone was trying to break in. Be aware getting a room with balcony is pointless because all you see from the balcony are walls, trash and metal stairs.

What a apartment, gentleman upgraded us to a luxury apartment where we had everything, 3 balconies, 2 bedrooms with full kitchen; the view of Acropolis from the balcony is stunning esp. at night, you come out of the apartment and you are in the heart of old town, to Acropolis was about 6 minutes walking, they give you instructions thru whatsapp how to check in, easy and automated system! There are lotsa car rental offices around in case you need to rent a car, I would definitely stay again.

The reviews might've been a bit misleading. Although it was an alright place to stay, it wasn't what we had in mind based off the pictures. We found some hairs and other stuff stuck to the toilet seat, and the coffee table had something sticky left on it. The bedding wasn't comfortable, and the street noise kept us up most of the night. The shower temperature is not consistent as any time the toilet or tap was used in our apartment or other apartments around us, it would change the water to either scalding hot or freezing cold. The "lobby" smelled terribly of incense. Glad we only booked for two nights here before moving on. The best part about it was the location being close to the Acropolis.

I could not recommend this apartment more. It was an entire apartment, complete with kitchen and balcony overlooking the Acropolis. The views were stunning and the apartment was spotless. They were also so helpful in arranging transfers from the airport and to the cruise port so we did not have to worry. It was walking distance to the Acropolis and surrounded by great places to eat. I wish we could have stayed longer!

A very large, comfortable apartment -- with a large patio with a lovely view of the Parthenon. The building is near enough to the plaka to enjoy its many pleasures, but on a quieter street that allowed for uninterrupted sleep. We would heartily recommend this apartment to those travelling with families as well.

Very good location, with subway and akropolis nearby. To the west is a not too touristy neighborhood with several cozy restaurants and bars. The apartment had a spacious balcony with a view of Parthenon, that was a perfect place for breakfast in the sun. (The picture is a bit misleading though, of what I think is a boat?)

Ideale locatie door de centrale ligging t.o.v. Acropolis, musea, National Garde enz. Allemaal op loopafstand van max. 1,2 km. Op 100 meter ben je direct in de drukke winkelstraat met vele restaurants. De metro ligt op max 150 meter vanaf het appartement. Vanuit de airport de metrolijn Acropolis nemen. Het penthouse Iris is voorzien van alle gemakken. Het contact is service gerecht en snel kwa reageren. We zijn 4 nachten verbleven wat we echt nodig hadden om Athene ontdekken. Vanuit ons grote terras keken we op het Acropolis.

Excellent location. Minutes walk to Acropolis. Close to cafes and restaurants. We paid for early check in but the code to the room wasn’t activated. I had to call and the gentleman was quick to the room to correct the issue. Keep in mind there isn’t a front desk situation:)

Location is good, but terrible otherwise. Host didn't send codes to access building and apartment 24 hrs in advance as described. After I landed in Athens, I emailed and texted multiple times on the way to the place. No response. After got to the place, banged on building door in the middle of night in a new city, no response! Finally got him on the phone to get the codes. He upgraded me to a bigger apt, but it was still bad. Bathroom was in terrible condition, tiny, walls were dirty with stains around the toilet, water splashed out on the floor when showering no matter how careful you were. It was so slippery I fell and hurt myself. Heater didn't work. Neither did wall AC unit. Host turned on heat remotely. Kind of creepy. Even more creepy was the automatic door lock activated multiple times each night, making noise loud enough to wake you up. I thought someone was trying to break in. Be aware getting a room with balcony is pointless because all you see from the balcony are walls, trash and metal stairs.

Excellent location. Next to subway so it’s easy to get there from airport. You can see the Parthenon from the back deck so it was really quick to walk to Acropolis or the museum. So many restaurants and shopping options within 5 blocks

O checkin é às 16:00, mesmo tendo vip Acess precisei pagar um valor a mais para entrar às 13:00, e mesmo sendo pago só nos liberou para entrar às 14:00. Cobraram taxa de limpeza. O café da manhã era delivery ( não utilizamos ) no site anunciava traslado ao eoroporto e precisamos pagar 100 euros. A localização excelente.

Great location, and everyone seemed nice. But rooms kept too warm, breakfast came too late and lacking amenities of an actual hotel. Would choose better if we return to Athens.

Excellent all around. 😎 The management staff was very responsive to texts, excellent communication. Perfect location where everything is walking distance. Great little restaurants, cafes and shopping in the area. We were 2 couples, plenty of space. We were able to enjoy our morning coffee on the terrace, while overlooking the Acropolis. We will definitely stay here again.

In a good location. Free breakfast is fruit that has been in the fridge for awhile and packets of bread / crackers. Good spot to lay your head. Clean and all you need if you aren’t high maintenance.

Fantastic location, easy to get to. Clean and friendly staff. It is a little noisey. We could hear everything going on in the building. Dog barking, people singing, conversations... I would definitely stay again but if you have light sleepers bring earplugs

They gave us a very nice one bedroom apartment, stocked with food and drink. The location was excellent , many restaurants and stores in very close proximity to the apartment. Both the Acropolis and the Zeus Temple were within reasonable walking distance, as was the Plaka. Overall, just a terrific experience.
