Next time I'm in Athens, I'm staying at Athenian Spirit. It's right next to the Metro that takes you directly to and from the airport. There are many great bars and restaurants nearby. The rooftop is great for lounging around with a beverage. The rooms were spacious and impeccably clean. The bed and sofa were very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Tip: you can't flush TP down the toilet, so bring wipes since there isn't a bidet.

The lady in the lobby was really nice, the hotel was new and clean. There were many restaurants near the hotel. The only problem was that there was loud music until very late during some nights but it is not the hotels fault.

Excellent stay! Extremelly clean and fresh. Super friendly and kind staff. Great location literally 2 minutes from the metro station. Very comfortable bed and spacious bathroom. The only two suggestions we have for the owner are to add a small microwave as it is very inconvenient not to be able to heat food or milk for the kids and to invest in good pillows that don’t make noise. However, everything else was great and we had a fantastic time. We would definitely be back and, in fact, we will be recommending this place to friends and family. Thanks!!!

The property can best serve lightly-luggaged travellers. The elevator was small & tight. The vertical travel is not designed for persons with disabilities i.e. missing ramps, handrails, grab bars in wash rooms, etc. Otherwise the facilities were nice & clean; and the staff were most helpful.

Great stay!

This property was wonderful to stay at. Very clean and modern. Communication was great and straightforward on how to access the building and keys. You can take the metro right from the airport to just around the corner, and walk to many nearby attractions/sites. The only negative is that the building is surrounded by clubs so the noise does carry well into the night, although this didn't bother us. I would definitely stay here again.
