Hotels near Marathon Run Museum in Marathonas

Chose this location as we wanted to visit Athens and Marathon. Booked one week with EasyJet and paid £100 for taxi transfers to and from hotel and airport. All inclusive holiday and couldn’t fault the food apart from the usual problem of servery food, heat. Local drinks included were as expected. Room in main hotel was comfortable and serviced daily. Lifts worked well. Did some research and decide to book a taxi to take us into Athens. Cost 100 Euros return, booked for 07.15 to return at 16.30. Dropped off and picked up at the Acropolis. Took 55 mins both ways. Can go by local bus and metro for much cheaper but will not get you there until much later when the queue is half a mile long! We were fortunate that the day we visited was a museum day and all entrances were free. Worth checking if any of these dates coincide with your holiday. Otherwise 20 Euros each just for Parthenon People who had pre booked on the internet or cruise trip did not get refunds. Paid 20 Euros each for hop on/off bus. Spent most of the time stuck in traffic. Would recommend walking. Paid 12 Euros for a taxi to Marathon race museum. Only 2 Euros each. Museum is large and very interesting. Then taxi to Marathon beach 8 Euros and walk back along the beach to the hotel. From hotel beach gate exit turning left takes you to Marathon beach, 30 mins walk. Turning right takes you to Nea Makri harbour, 50 mins walk. Hope this information is helpful, enjoy your holiday 🌞

We stayed in this hotel for two nights at the end of our roundtrip on the Greek mainland. The hotel and its grounds are good looking but unfortunately a lot of things went wrong during our short stay. We were very happy with the first room we got. This room was on the highest floor with a good view on the pool and the sea. After we returned from dinner the air conditioning in the room didn’t work anymore. Because of this the room temperature quickly rose to 30 degrees Celsius. We have been to the reception about this issue three times. A man came along our room two times and just looked at it but nothing was done. At 03.00h we were not able to sleep anymore because of the heat and humidity. The reception gave us the keys for an other room in a huge flat building nearby. This room only had a double bed but no furniture because it was still under renovation. After a short night in this room we went back to the reception in the morning. The lady who was on duty understood our problems and arranged an upgrade to a suite for our second night. This room with a small garden was perfect. Since we were very tired we decided to stay at the pool for the day. Unfortunately at about 12.00h a large group of local kids (15 at least) came into the pool area. They took over the pool immediately. They jumped into the pool constantly, even when this was forbidden by the pool rules. They also were screaming and yelling all the time. This went on till 19.00h and destroyed the pleasure of many hotel guests. We have been to the reception to complain about this but nothing was done about it. Nobody in the hotel took responsibility for anything. This was the case with our broken air conditioning (which had happened many times before as we heard) and also with the group of kids who illegally invaded the pool area. There seems to be a lack of good management at this hotel. It looks like they don’t care about the well being of the guest but only about making money. The good thing was the self service breakfast which was served at the pool and had enough variety.

We read a few of the reviews and made a great choice! We’ve just stayed 7 days here and we loved it. We stayed in a sea view room which was amazing to wake up to each morning, and the beach is literally a stones throw from your balcony. The beach was nice, albeit a sandy/ stone beach which made getting in and out of the water a mission for me (sensitive feet lol) but there’s a cool shop on site selling beach shoes, and all you need, which I recommend! The rooms are great and had AC, very important.! Because of its location it’s ideal if you want a really relaxed stay as going anywhere is a little far away. But, a 15/20 minute walk gets you to a nice stretch of beach and shops, with restaurants that are on the beach, eat and swim! Athens was an hour away if it’s of interest and there was a nice quiet sandy beach we found an hour away too, could literally walk out about 100m, was a cool day trip. A massive thanks to Marianna our Taxi driver who took us there and back and had great local knowledge. I also highly recommend you stay all inclusive, breakfast lunch and dinner were amazing, you really don’t have to go anywhere for food or drinks.

I am a former Vice Consul who is currently heavily disabled and I live in Tolo-Argolida with my partner who needed urgent medical attention at the KAT Hospital in Kifissia. Not knowing the hotels in Kifissia, I happened to call the Pines. It was confirmed to me that it had easy access to the said hospital, so believing the member of staff I went ahead and booked the hotel. At no point during our conversation was I told that this is a couples hotel as I would never have accepted to book. We got there at 01.35 tired and nervous about our hospital visit, but we went off immediately to get some lunch On our return to the hotel at 15.10 we had decided to take a short rest so I asked the reception staff to wake us up with coffee at 15.45 so that we don't miss our very important hospital appointment. Thankfully, though I hadn't fallen asleep as I was very disturbed after turning on the TV in order to relax our minds by watching the daily news but instead finding two hard core porn channels back to back... at this point I switched off the TV and awaited for the coffee. When at 15.50 it still hadn't arrived, I called reception to ask what had happened, only to be told that he would send some coffee up to us immediately. After 15 minutes though and as we had to urgently leave in order not to miss our appointment at the Hospital, the bar staff knocked the door carrying two cups of coffee. However, as we were already running late we did not have any time to waste so, after I told the bar staff that he was too late, we rushed off to the hospital. What shocked me most of all is that the reception staff called to complain. I can't believe the audacity of it. Instead of apologising he appeared angry! Can you believe it? An 180 kilometres journey for a hospital appointment that we nearly missed simply because of their inefficiency!!! At this point I need to stress to other prospective customers that the Pines Hotel, in my view is 100% a ”couples” hotel! I find it very unfair that they do not warn customers before their arrival!!!

We njoyed r stay. At first we were concerned about the location, thinking we were going to b close to city center. But the location is great - it is only 2 blocks from the metro, making it convenient to everything by metro. Apartment is super modern and great. The response time from the Lux&Easy team is amazing - and they were always so helpful. They r the best. The apartment is in a local neighborhood, people walking dogs, people going to work, others walking to market. Nice balcony to watch it all. Nice!

I had a great stay. The room is well organized and clean. The personnel are really supportive and provide good assistance.

Needs updating! Arrived here to a friendly welcome from the lovely staff at reception. Booked a premium sea view room was clean and of a good size but with a small balcony. Bathroom was big but in need of a serious update, shower went all over the bathroom floor which seemed to stay wet!! We were on floor six and it absolutely stank the minute you walked in of cigarettes it was very off putting to two non smokers, not very pleasant at all. Food was average, could always find something but we found it wasn’t always warm not alone hot. This is not good practice in a buffet type situation ( or any good food setting!) Dining area was probably the worse I’ve ever been in, depressing miserable canteen style with the most miserable staff we’ve ever seen! Pushing a black trolley around and clearing plates and dumping food next to your table is awful and should really be addressed by the hotel. Pool staff friendly. Enough sun beds around pool area. Hotel needs seriously updating it is a beautiful location. Not much around area so you are sort of stuck there, it’s a 30 min drive from the craziness of Athens so good if you want to relax. Guests were mostly French. I don’t think we would return unless some serious renovation took place.

Comfortable place
