Niche Hotel Athens

Excellent hotel in a fantastic location near Acropolis , restaurants and Plaka neighborhood.

Great location and wonderful facilities N

It was beautiful! Nothing

Great location near Plaka and view of Acropolis Nails sticking up in floor not repaired. Only one elevator. Staff were friendly but only accommodating about half the time (would not nail down nails sticking up, no room upgrade despite staying at hotel several times)

Location Very friendly Cleanest

The location and views were amazing! Nothing

No much storage in the room and no privacy for showering due to the open floor plan of the room

A wonderful hotel in the heart of Athens! The location is perfect, with all the main attractions within easy walking distance. The breakfast was excellent, with a great variety of fresh and delicious food. One of the highlights was the breathtaking view of the Acropolis, especially during breakfast. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent service throughout our stay. Nothing

Location You didn’t always have access to the rooftop. I know it’s a restaurant but I wish they had like a back area or side area u can access and just use the balcony restaurant part. Everything else is locked up

We liked the location. I booked the hotel because of the view of the Acropolis from their bar/restaurant. But other than the location, I honestly can't think of anything positive to say about the place--unless we had upgraded our room to a Premium room and then we would've been in something functional and more like a budget north American hotel room. The layout of each hotel room should be available upon booking. Had I known our bathroom was dysfunctional in its design, we might have changed rooms, or perhaps changed hotels. Our room had a separate area for the toilet, a separate area for the shower, and then the sink was in the room itself! All of it very dysfunctional--it might work for 20-year olds, but as retirees we like to have all the facilities with a counter in one room. There were no hooks to hang your housecoat or towel inside the shower area. There was one hook in the toilet area, which meant you had to walk out of the shower into the room and then into the toilet area to reach your towel--OR, lay them on the floor by the shower door! Dysfunctional. And what hotel doesn't have a movie channel for guests to check out after a long day of sight-seeing. Sometimes travellers just want to relax and watch a movie, but nothing was available. I had also communicated in depth with the staff at the hotel and the restaurant that we were celebrating our 40th anniversary there, and we were Vegans. I was assured that vegan options were available; they were, but not a great selection. When we arrived for our 40th Anniversary Dinner, the staff had placed us outside in the full sun, the odd bar where the seats are so low your arms are at shoulder height to reach for your drink. Not comfortable at all. We requested to move inside, and then when we did order what was available for us to eat, it all felt rushed. We'd order, and then two minutes later the food would arrive, as if it were all pre-prepared. We felt rushed the whole evening. Not a pleasant experience overall.

The properties real plus is that it's within walking distance to the Acropolis, shopping, and a ton of restaurants.

Was in the best location!! About 10 mins to the acropolis, Plaka was around the corner, and the hotel was stationed right next to a central street. The hotel was built over ruins which was incredible to see. Breakfast was wonderful and you have a direct view of the acropolis from the rooftop. The staff were kind and very helpful. There is free water in the lobby. They did a good job with cleaning every day. The room was a bit on the small side and we were only given one keycard so it was warm in the room every time we returned.

It was clean and staff was very helpful. The room we stayed in was very small and our view was of a dirty alley.

I booked a tour through the hotel, i specifically asked for someone with knowledge in Art History but they provided a standard tour guide and would not share information on their profile. The tour was OK, however at the end of the tour, the guide asked for payment in cash which i had no knowledge of, and the hotel said they were not responsible, i was annoyed that the hotel did not inform me and i was low in cash.

The Niche Hotel Athens was fine, but the standard rooms are exceptionally small and not very comfortable for two people. However, I really appreciated that the staff went out of their way to change us to a slightly larger room. The highlights of the stay were definitely the location, the rooftop restaurant, and the breakfast, all of which offer beautiful views during the morning and night. My only real disappointment was the value; despite the high price tag, it didn't quite deliver the boutique hotel experience I expected. The standard rooms are extremely small. They are so cramped that you can't even fit or open two suitcases inside without tripping over them, making it very uncomfortable for two people.

Beautiful, wonderful staff, fabulous view and food from the rooftop bar

Not a thing.

Their attentiveness to my needs and requests
