Good Stop over
Great location in the centre of everything. Very busy narrow street to get dropped off by car. Clean rooms and friendly staff. Good place to stay for a stopover in Athens.

Great location, in amongst lots of eateries, the area was alive with activity! Not far to walk to a supermarket and the markets. And only about 15-20 minutes walk from the Acropolis. Yummy breakfast :) The only down side was the bathroom was absolutely teeny tiny!

Nice short stay, but dated hotel.
Early check in was no problem without requesting it. Excellent location and helpful staff. Bed was ok as were the pillows. But the hotel appears very dated, the room and bathroom clearly require an upgrade, as do the the halls and the lift. The room door would not lock, there was no signage posted anyway for emergency and fire escaping, nor a floor plan.

This hotel is in an excellent location, I walked everywhere! Bonus that it's close to the X95 bus stop, made it incredibly easy to get there from the airport. Couple of minutes away are the tram & metro stops. Breakfast was included, basic but good. Enough to fuel up for a day of sightseeing. I would stay again if/when I come back to Athens

Nice and friendly hotel
It's a really good hotel, right in the centre with a welcoming and helpful staff. I liked that my room didn't look over the street so was quiet. My only issue was air-condition: when it was on it was too strong even at the lowest setting, but when I opened the window there was a loud hum, which later I found out was a giant air extractor for aircon...

Convenient hotel with friendly service.
The best thing about this hotel is it’s convenient location. It is so close to Syntagma station and a very easy walk from Monastiraki station. You can walk to Plaka in minutes and easily walk to the acropolis. Our room had a view of the acropolis and was especially beautiful at night. The breakfast was diverse and delicious. The room was clean. The service was friendly. My only two complaints would be that the beds are very, very hard and at least in our room the only outlet was in the bathroom or the one that the fridge was plugged in to. Therefore, if you want to charge your devices, they have to be in the bathroom or you have to unplug the fridge. In either case, your charging devices will be out of reach of the bed. All told, our stay was super convenient, service was friendly, and Arethusa proved to be a great base from which to explore Athens.

Ideal location for central Athens
The location is ideal and the hotel is nice, room is ok as a place to sleep and shower, and the AC is good. However, with the current situation it might be necessary to queue up for breakfast if you arrive around 9am, or run up the stairs as the lifts get quite busy. Not a big deal.

First time I see a hotel that refuses to keep your luggage for a few hours after checkout. They had paying lockers instead, of course. The place is pretty run down. Only positive point - the lady serving breakfast was very nice.

Sorry for the misunderstanding, there are lockers that you have to pay in order to use them but there is also a storage room that is free of charge.

Excellent location, bedroom was nice and spacious. Street noise made sleeping difficult sometimes, but that would be the case anywhere for most places in Syntagma except Ermou Street. Clean rooms and staff were nice, and helpful when asked for directions or information.
