During our 4 night stay at the Fountain Athens, we had a wonderful experience. The location of the hotel is convenient, as it is situated near a Metro Station, food court, Acropolis, and all the local attractions. This made our sightseeing and exploring of the city so much easier. Not only that, but the staff at the hotel were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Crystal and Evdokia, in particular, stood out with their warm and welcoming personalities. They were always willing to assist us with any questions we had and gave us great recommendations for places to visit. Overall, our stay at the Fountain Athens was truly unforgettable and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting the beautiful city of Athens. The music next door is a bit noisy on weekends.

Amazing location, very conveniently located close to the Monastiraki station (less than 5 minutes), Acropolis (15 minutes), Plaka (10 minutes), and lots of restaurants. It can get loud at night because of the nightlife scene, but nothing awful and earplugs are provided. Highly recommend and the staff is so kind and helpful!
