It was centrally located and all major areas were within walking distance including the Acropolis. On a negative note, the staff was rude, the rooms were so small I could not even fit my suitcase inside (I kept it on balcony because I couldn’t open it otherwise) , the bathrooms were unclean and overall just gross, you had to pay for a shower towel, and they turn the AC off in the rooms during the day so if you wanted to rest/nap, you’d be miserable because of the stuffiness in the room. This wasn’t my first hostel stay so I wasn’t expecting much but this was just a disappointment. ##### Sara Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sumit 15 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great place ##### Sumit Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurie 22 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Property is very clean, bedding was good quality, and there were no issues with hot water in the shower. Room seemed like it was newly renovated (room #15 on the 4th floor). It was quiet between about midnight and 6am. The elevator makes a very loud grinding bang every time it stops, which you can hear in the room and made it hard to sleep. The elevator also oddly stopped about 1/2 meter from the actual floor and the door opened, which was unsafe, so we took the stairs for the rest of our stay. Breakfast was fine, which included hard boiled eggs, apples/oranges, cereal, tomato, cucumber, cheese, ham, bread, so so filter coffee, juice. Housekeeping staff was very nice and offered every day to clean the room. Staff at the bar/breakfast area/check-in were usually professional and friendly, but the staff person at check-in seemed to hate his job and appeared irritated at normal questions. Location was great and steps from the acropolis entrance and acropolis museum, many restaurants, and shops. The roof bar terrace had an amazing view and opens at 6pm. We would stay again (and take the stairs). ![View from the roof terrace](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/98242fed-aa75-4202-b7c8-9ca4c1fe55d7-1761128636253.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View from the roof terrace ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4e39477e-8e00-46cd-9b63-500cc338b881-1761128636434.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Laurie Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert 4 Oct 2024 It was a great close to the acropolis ##### Robert Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### WILLIAM 4 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Wonderful staff and friendly fellow travelers. ##### WILLIAM Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Antonio 30 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities I liked the service and the easily accessible place. ##### Antonio Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LUIS 6 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities It was my first time at a hostel and I loved it! ##### LUIS Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert 23 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff very helpful ##### Robert Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicolas 17 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The room of 4 people are great, didn’t like as much the 8 people room, but it does depend of the people you get stuck with ##### Nicolas Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Joana 3 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good and central hostel but... In general the hostel is good, it's very near of Acropoli, and the beds are very comfortable. The only bad things are: towels not included, you need to pay 2€ for rent and you also need to buy your locker. ##### Joana Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Carolyn 14 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities As a backpackers hostel, it was fine. However, the price for a family room was excessive - we paid more there than we could have paid at a hotel with more amenities (like a clothes rod and hangers (!!) and maybe a hand towel). If the price hadn’t been so high ($286 Cdn a night on the weekend), I would have given a higher overall rating, but the price was out of line for that room in that type of venue. ##### Carolyn Stayed 5 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Stacey 11 Sept 2024 The breakfast included was definitely a bonus. The facility itself was clean all on all, It was a good choice. ##### Stacey Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Alexandre 15 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Location of the hostel is amazing, it is a 2 min walk from there to the Acropolis. ##### Alexandre Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Anna 1 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities We had a room with a private bathroom, the rooftop bar is a must to experience the view!

Only two things to mind are if you are too close to the rooftop you'll hear all the chatter and the AC is very strong, had to sleep with a sweater . ##### Erika Stayed 1 night in May 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Carlos 28 Mar 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Cool for the area, closeness for metro and great employees, downside, beds don’t have curtains, towels that they offer are very poor quality, door of bathrooms are loud and when someone is taking a shower or flushing the toilet is very loud. Beds are also making noises with every movement, and you have to take your own lock, take thin last one in mind if it’s your first hostel experience. ##### Carlos Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brad 5 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My two nights at backpackers hostel was great! Friendly staff with two bars… One in the lobby, and one on the roof top with great views of the acropolis. Both bars have a one hour happy hour… Two for one drinks. Very nice breakfast served in the lobby that is also included. Rooms are cleaned daily… Mine had six bunks with a private bathroom for those six people. Nice atmosphere in the lobby to hang out as long as you want and meet other travelers. Highly recommend Backpackers hostel! ##### Brad Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jose 12 Nov 2024 Liked: Staff & service Not bad ##### Jose Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Radisson Blu Hotel, Dubai Deira Creek](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h21870.Hotel-Information) > > [Marathon Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Marathon-Beach-Resort.h8131485.Hotel-Information) > > [Green Suites Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Green-Suites.h44573630.Hotel-Information) > > [Kinetta Beach Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Kinetta-Beach-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h2256271.Hotel-Information) > > [Zeus Essence Ramada by Wyndham Athens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Ramada-By-Wyndham-Attica-Riviera.h1398741.Hotel-Information) > > [Cape Sounio, A Grecotel Resort to Live](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Cape-Sounio.h973998.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Athens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Athens.h21031.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Wembley Stadium](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wembley-Stadium-Hotels.0-l501565-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Athenaeum InterContinental by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Athenaeum-InterContinental.h19591.Hotel-Information) > > [South Gap Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Lawrence-Gap-Hotels-South-Gap-Hotel.h1287834.Hotel-Information) > > [3HB Golden Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Albufeira-Hotels-3HB-Golden-Beach.h3856731.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Transylvania](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Transylvania-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d6057287-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Botania Relais & Spa - The Leading Hotels of the World.](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Forio-Hotels-Botania-Relais-Spa.h6133363.Hotel-Information) > > [The Alex Monte Kastella](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-The-Alex.h38235667.Hotel-Information) > > [Cavo D'Oro Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Cavo-DOro-Hotel.h11074444.Hotel-Information) > > [Phidias Piraeus Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Phidias-Piraeus-Hotel.h1545253.Hotel-Information) > > [Shore View Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Eastbourne-Hotels-Shore-View-Hotel.h1614102.Hotel-Information) > > [Winery Hotels in Douro Valley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Douro-Valley-Hotels-Winery-Hotels.0-0-d6055559-tWineryHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Manchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels.d2205.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Athens Panorama Project](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Athens-Panorama-Suites.h46072422.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Styles Athens Routes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-Ibis-Styles-Athens-Routes.h36122912.Hotel-Information) > > [President Hotel Athens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Athens-Hotels-President-Hotel-Athens.h1637285.Hotel-Information) ### Flights ### Cars ### Activities > [Things to do in Malton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Malton.d6048692.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages ### General > [Visit La Sagrada Familia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barcelona-La-Sagrada-Familia.dx553248633935945004)
