My family, 2 adults and 1 infant, stayed at the Hotel Plaka in Athens for 2 nights in May of 2008. We spent our last two nights in Athens, after a 6 week tour through Europe. The Hotel Plaka was clean, comfortable and well accomodating. Our room consisted of a queen bed and a portacot for our son. It had... more

Hotel is ideally located 2 min from monastiraki metro and about 10 min from syntagma metro. Bus no 400 which takes you to all the tourist avenues in athens starts from very close to the hotel right across the monastiraki station. Trams runs late into the night, are very frequent and are very easy to cummute with. Plenty of open... more

We spent one night at the Plaka Hotel in June. A lovely room on the top floor with fabulous view of the Acropolis. The location is absolutely perfect - with Plaka and Monastiraki on the doorstep. Contrary to other reviews, the front reception staff (a rotation of 4 while we were there) could not have been more warm, welcoming, accommodating... more

Very small room--tiny. About 7 feet across, and the bathroom matched. However, the view was unsurpassed, and the location was quite convenient. The staff wasn't rude, but I wouldn't call them an asset. Questions were met with grudging suggestions; at one point, I asked directions to a bookstore and the front desk clerk gave them brusquely. When I went to... more

We wanted a slightly nicer hotel for our last night in Greece, with just a little more space and a little bigger bathroom than some of the 80-100 Euro places we'd stayed in. We found the Plaka Hotel, and it was great. We paid 129 euro on booking.com, booked it online on Friday morning for a Friday night stay (don't... more

We stayed at the Plaka hotel for two nights after our arrival in Athens on May 4th. As we had heard, the location was absolutely fantastic. It is right in the heart of the Plaka, very close to all the sights. It had been recommended to us to use Athens as a jumping-off point for the rest of Greece, and... more

We had a great stay at the Plaka. We were on the 6th floor at the side and this was fine. A bit of noise but what do you expect - we just put in our ear plugs if required!! Bathroom needs updating but ok. The fridge was handy too. Loved the rooftop terrace for sunbathing and beautiful views. Breakfast... more

Stayed there April 2008, rate $150 EURO per night, triple room. Good hotel for the money, GREAT location in the middle of everything in Plaka district. Good clean room, good beds, good furniture. So-So bathroom, clean but dated. You have to pay for Internet Access, I paid 4 EURO for 1 hour access time, you get your user name and... more
