Does HotelsByCity recommend this hotel?
You can start your day off on the right foot with a great buffet breakfast. You’ll be doing a lot of sightseeing since this hotel is so centrally located. Some travelers commented on the lack of security. The one thing to keep in mind though is that Athens is quite laid back and setting up security just isn’t a real priority. Other then that, guests enjoyed their stay and many commented that they would return. Read our customer reviews?
Your rooms will have air-conditioning as well as your own private bathroom and hairdryer. You can unwind in front of the satellite TV. There is also a mini bar and direct dial phone. When you arrive, try to get a room that has a window that opens to the outside of the hotel. Some open towards the lobby area.
The bar/restaurant located on the main level is a great place to meet up with other guests while you enjoy the local drinks and snacks. One of the highlights for staying here is that Hotel Rio can help you organize a trip to one of the Greek Islands. They also have a currency exchange service.
