Trip Type: Not Provided Review 2 of 12Location, location, location!
This is a very good Hotel (yet simple) just a block away from the main Street that gives access to the New Acropolis Museum and to the Acropolis site itself. It also helps that it is so close to Plaka, a district full of restaurants and local shops. Also, very important is the metro station that is just 3 minutes walking from the Hotel. The restaurant/breakfast area view is amazing! The Parthenon and the Temple of Zeus are just beautiful to see at the mornings or nights! The staff service level is outstanding! If you can upgrade your room to a suite and the view of the Temple of Zeus, I say that its worth the money!

We were very pleased with this hotel. Great staff, very helpful and accommodating. We could walk to most everything. Good restaurants to walk to and the Plaka was right next to us. Couldn't have asked for more!

Trip Type: Overnight Stay Review 4 of 12Great Location!
The hotel’s location was excellent, and the hotel itself was great! Only complaints are that our balcony door didn’t seal 100%, sounded like it was ajar, so we had to listen to the loud street noise down below all night. Might be worth paying for a room on the Acropolis side, away from the street noise to avoid this. Other complaint is that the AC turned off when we left the room, so the room was always warm when we returned, but it saves energy, so I can’t complain too much about that. Bed could have been softer too. Otherwise it was very nice, excellent location and the staff was very friendly. Breakfast was delicious too!

We had made a request for a change of room, which the hotel did ASAP. The staff at this hotel was over the top compared to two other hotels we stayed at in Greece.

Trip Type: Not Provided Review 6 of 12We Were Really Impressed
We have been traveling through several cities in Italy and Greece during the past few months staying in 4 star hotels within the same price range and Athens Gate has been our best choice. The hotel underwent a renovation a couple of years ago and it shows. Rooms are neatly appointed and modern. Its terrace provides terrific view of the Acropolis/Parthenon and the Temple of Zeus and its location is pretty convenient; just a few blocks away from a metro station, the new Acropolis Museum, the Plaka and the pedestrian way (Dionisiou Areopagitou) which takes you to the Acropolis. But what really made the difference was the personal attention they provided. None of the employees hesitated to go the extra mile to provide a good service. Besides, their English is impeccable so you won’t get confused when asking for directions or any other information. We were very happy and will definitely stay there again next time we go to Athens. A great value for the money.

Very neat and clean, exceptional location and views and the restaurant view is worth the price of the room. Only negative is the elevator.

Trip Type: Not Provided Review 9 of 12Great value!
The view of the ruins from our balcony was incredible. The rooftop garden is small but the view of the Acropolis is incredible. I would not recommend eating at the hotel as there are a number of great restaurants nearby that offer a meal at a fraction of the cost. This hotel is small and boutique-like. Very modern and clean. The front desk staff was very accomodating. Perfect walking distance from the Plaka.

Trip Type: Overnight Stay Review 10 of 12Great location and views
Room was very comfortable. Location is next to the Plaka. Sliding glass door to the balcony which overlook a park with ruins of the Temple of Zeus. Delicious food served by friendly staff with great views from the roof top garden.

Athens Gate is a boutique hotel smack dab in the middle of much of what you want to see when you land in Athens. The Parthenon and Plaka are within walking distance, as is the fabulous Metro. The view rooms are of either the Parthenon or Temple of Zeus. Specify if you have a preference. The personnel there are very knowledgeable and friendly. Go for dinner or drinks to the top floor to get the great view too.

Trip Type: Not Provided Review 12 of 12Fine hotel near all attractions
The hotel staff was very nice. The restaurant is small and has very few items on the menu, but the food was good. It is not a big hotel so does not have a lot of amenities but is very near many restaurants, stores, and attractions.
