Pro: Perfect location, right near Syntagma metro station, and easy walk to Plaka. Decent enough buffet breakfast included in rate. Nice size rooms. The best part is the rates, especially the prepaid ones. I paid only 40 Euros for a double room for single use. Con: Desk staff were rather sullen and not especially friendly. Rooms are functional but undistinguished,... More

The Arethusa is not a fancy hotel, and those looking for charm or special TLC will be disappointed. What it is is a better-than-average tourist class hotel with a supremely central and convenient location (just steps off Syntagma square, the X95 airport bus stop, and the metro), helpful desk personnel (especially in the mornings), a welcoming lobby with comfy if...

We've stayed in this hotel for two nights and this couldn't be a better location. The main shopping street around the corner, just a 5 minute walk to metro station (where you can get a metro to the airport), Syntagma square, Plaka and Monastiraki areas so close. We've got a room on 8th floor, had a nice view over Acropolis.... More

Located a couple of steps from Syntagma Square, the airport bus terminal, the Syntagma metro station, the Plaka area, the Acropolis and everything you want to visit. All these at a fantastic price. Accessibility, service, price and excellent breakfast.

We stayed in Arethusa hotel for the first time for 4 nights. We definitely will stay there again. We stayed in room 305. As step out of the airport bus x95 which park on the side of Syntagma Square (by the way is the cheapest way to go to Syntagma 5 euros) we could see the hotel sign.We have no... More

I've lost count of the number of times I've stayed at the Arethusa - 13 or 14 times since I was 8 years old. I love it for its central location - wedged between Syntagma, Plaka and Monastiraki and right in the heart of the Ermou shopping district. As others have commented, the breakfast buffet is excellent - my most... More

Me and my fried stayed in Arethusa for 2 days, we didn't spend much time in the hotel because came there exactly to SEE Athens. We took train from Thessaloniki and got to the hotel on metro, it was early morning and after checking which rooms are avaliable receptionist agreed to put us in free room at 9, in spite... More

We stayed on the 6th floor room 608 for 4 nights. You can see the Hotel sign when you step off the Airport bus 95X where it parks on the side of Sytagma Square which is very reassuring when you are in a strange location, the fare is 5 Euro's. I have no complaints at all regarding this Hotel, the... More

The room was spacious and the beds were about as comfortable as you get in Europe without being 5 stars. Breakfast buffet had a good selection. The key to this hotel is being close to Syntagma square. From the airport you can ride for about 6 Euros versus 50 for a cab ride. With one connection you can also catch... More
