Athenian Foss draws praise for its very central, walkable Plaka location, genuinely friendly staff, and clean, comfortable rooms, with many guests appreciating balconies, big showers, and sound-insulated windows that keep most street noise out.
Trade-offs include a very small elevator and a few steps at the entrance, plus occasional street or church-bell noise. Room experiences vary: some suites are spacious with views, while others are smaller or lack outside windows, and noise can reach certain floors or street-facing rooms. Breakfast and the partner restaurant are widely liked for taste and convenience, though a few reviews mention late start times, set menus, or poor service. Expect a well-located boutique stay best for travelers prioritizing access and warm service over extensive amenities.

Enjoyed my stay at Athenian Foss. Hotel is smaller than I thought but not too much of a problem. Room was a nice size, friendly cleaning staff as well. There are people outside of an evening who play music, sometimes quite loudly so keep this in mind. Also, the elevator is very very small so if you have lots of luggage, this hotel might not be suitable. All in all, a good stay in a good location!

The room is absolutely fantastic. Very modern and clean. The only downside of the hotel is that it’s small with the elevator barely being able to fit two people. There isn’t much of lounge but the rooms and staff were wonderful.

Die Lage war wirklich sehr gut, mitten in der Stadt und in Gehnähe zu vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Das Hotel ist zwar sauber, aber schon abgenutzt. Die Fugen im Badezimmer waren schon schwarz. Das war nicht so toll. Wir hatten Frühstück dabei, aber das Frühstück war das Geld nicht wert. Kein Frühstücksbuffet, man konnte zwischen 3 Kategorien von Frühstück wählen, die alle ziemlich gleich und lieblos angerichtet waren.

This hotel is right smack in the middle of all the action! The first floor is a cafe/restaurant where you can get your day started. If you choose to go elsewhere, there are plenty of choices all around. As soon as you exit the building, you're on Ermou St., which is a pedestrian street full of shops and places to eat. You're a 10 minute walk from Syntagma Square and Monastiraki Square, and a 15 minute walk to the Acropolis. The location could not be better! Our room was very nice and comfortable. The bed is super comfy and large. There were robes and slippers for you to use after a good shower. The room was an adequate size, and the drinks in the refrigerator were an added bonus. The only thing you should know is that the elevator in this hotel is tiny, no exaggeration. My wife and I barely fit, and the door would hit us when it closed. We were actually amused by the size of it, and didn't mind it at all. Having said this, you'll need to wait if there are others trying to access it at the same time, or you can use the stairs, which we did on a few occasions. The people here were amazing! The porter took our luggage up and down for us so we wouldn't have to struggle with it. The lady at the front desk called us a taxi for when we left to the airport and she also helped us with suggestions on where to eat. Overall, this hotel was exceptional and we would definitely stay here again.

Our stay at the Athenian Foss was fantastic. The room we stayed in was clean, comfortable, spacious and had a great view of the city. The staff were so helpful and friendly and couldn’t do enough to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Breakfast was included at The Greco’s Project at the foot of the hotel, which had a good choice and was delicious. Service was excellent.

I liked the location. However, a "Presidential Suite" that costs C$550,00 a night must offer better conditions to the guests. When we arrived at the flat, I immediately saw how filthy and dusty it was. The unit hadn\'t been cleaned properly for a long time. For example, the apartment looked tired, with a sofa and ottoman full of dirty spots. The wall corners needed a coat of paint. The bed did not have fresh linen or quality pillows. You could not walk with bare feet; otherwise, you got black sole feet. Unacceptable! Inside the washroom, the water could not drain normally inside the glass shower because something obstructed it. As a result, the water came outside the glass door, flooding the whole washroom floor. Another thing I noticed was that the washroom door handle came off on my hand, and I could see how badly it was done. To finish, I think this suite rate is way too expensive based on what was offered. I would not return or recommend it to any friend. I have some pictures taken from what I just mentioned above. Unfortunately, I am not able to upload those pictures. Thank you.

The location of the hotel and the room's size and decour were beyond my expectations for this level of a hotel. You have a convenient walk to the metro and to the main attractions, and the staff was very welcoming when I arrived. The only downside for me was a foul smell I had in my bathroom which got stronger in the night. I hope they took care of that already :)

Stor skön säng med Tempurtypsmadrass. Rummet var mycket rymligt och badrummet stort. Fjärrkontroll till tvn saknades men frågade inte efter det. Stora garderober, minibar och badrumsprodukter. Dock ingen utsikt alls bara blinkande ljus från shoppinggatan utanför. Mycket lyhört och lite slitet men prisvärt för några nätter. Toppenläge.

We had a wonderful stay at Athenian Foss. Eva at reception was absolutely amazing – warm, helpful, and made us feel so welcome. We’ve already rebooked for another 2 nights before ending our Greek summer holiday. The location is perfect – just a short walk from both Monastiraki and Syntagma metro stations (direct airport line) and only about 15 minutes from the Acropolis. Surrounded by great restaurants and shopping, the hotel is perfectly situated so we could walk everywhere. Our room was clean, spacious, and we especially loved the huge balcony. The breakfast was fabulous and such a great way to start each day. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Athens!

Exceptionally central in Plaka and along Ermou, walkable to Monastiraki, Syntagma, and major sights including the Acropolis, with shops and restaurants all around. Centrality can bring some street or church-bell noise.

Wonderful two-night stay at this property in downtown Athens. Location is fantastic! Stores and restaurants all around and the restaurant located right in the hotel at the street level served delicious meals for breakfast, lunch and supper. Only a two minute walk to historic Plaka area and a 10-15 minute walk to the acropolis. Excellent views from the area to the Acropolis. Grocery store market very nearby - just around the corner. Taxi pickup/dropoff location very close to the hotel. We would definitely stay at Athenian Foss again.

Couldn't ask for a better location within walking distance to dining, shopping, sightseeing and historical areas! Even the taxi driver who dropped us off from the airport complimented us on our choice of location in the beautiful Plaka district. This area has a great local vibe and there is so much to experience. Our room was beautiful, comfortable, clean and well appointed. We chose accommodations without a view of the Acropolis, because pretty much everywhere outside has a view of it. Why pay for a view of the Acropolis if you're going to be outside enjoying everything the area has to offer? There are tons of rooftop restaurants, cafes and taverns where you can enjoy the view. Even many of the street cafes have amazing views. The hotel staff was friendly, polite and referred us to amazing local restaurants and bars that were reasonably priced, so we could avoid the mediocre overpriced tourist traps. If we asked for anything, they were quick to respond and always had a smile. We made the mistake of grabbing the first taxi at the airport. As a result, we paid more than we should have and were dropped off farther away from the hotel than we would have preferred. We highly recommend working with the hotel for taxi service. The driver that the hotel arranged picked us up closer to the hotel and was more reasonably priced. We couldn't experience everything that we wanted to in 3 days, so we will stay at the Athenian Foss again when we return to Athens!

Die Lage war wirklich sehr gut, mitten in der Stadt und in Gehnähe zu vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Das Hotel ist zwar sauber, aber schon abgenutzt. Die Fugen im Badezimmer waren schon schwarz. Das war nicht so toll. Wir hatten Frühstück dabei, aber das Frühstück war das Geld nicht wert. Kein Frühstücksbuffet, man konnte zwischen 3 Kategorien von Frühstück wählen, die alle ziemlich gleich und lieblos angerichtet waren.

Athenian Foss is in a great location. Very central to all of the areas you want to visit when in Athens. The service by hotel staff was fantastic! From planning the trip from home and throughout our stay. The affiliated restaurant below, Greco, is where breakfast is served. They also served lunch and dinner and were reasonably priced and delicious. I would stay and eat here again.

Our stay at the Athenian Foss was fantastic. The room we stayed in was clean, comfortable, spacious and had a great view of the city. The staff were so helpful and friendly and couldn’t do enough to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Breakfast was included at The Greco’s Project at the foot of the hotel, which had a good choice and was delicious. Service was excellent.

We had a wonderful stay at Athenian Foss. Eva at reception was absolutely amazing – warm, helpful, and made us feel so welcome. We’ve already rebooked for another 2 nights before ending our Greek summer holiday. The location is perfect – just a short walk from both Monastiraki and Syntagma metro stations (direct airport line) and only about 15 minutes from the Acropolis. Surrounded by great restaurants and shopping, the hotel is perfectly situated so we could walk everywhere. Our room was clean, spacious, and we especially loved the huge balcony. The breakfast was fabulous and such a great way to start each day. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Athens!
