Best Hotels near Apothēkē, North Athens

Very satisfied, clean and cheap, away from the tourist area, but it is very convenient to take the subway directly. It is a place where locals live and experience the life of locals. Downstairs is a small commercial street, restaurant bakery coffee supermarket electronic products, etc., life is very convenient. For leisure travel, go out and cross the road without turning, walk to Line 3, it is very fresh, so it is very comfortable to walk without feeling tired. Because I ran smoothly, I lived for another day.

The Kefalari is located in a very nice neighborhood with cute shops and nice restaurants. They offered us a breakfast box due to no restaurants serving breakfast in the neighborhood. We had to leave at 2:30 am for a flight, so missed out on that but they had Nespresso pods available as well as water. The rooms are beautiful and have great amenities but the carpet needs replacing. I believe they are in the midst of renovations. There is a small elevator and also cookies, coffee and bottled water in the lobby.

I've been in Athens many times, and my first advice is if you're visiting the Greek capital for sightseeing don't stay here. The hotel is in a remote northern suburbs, too far from Athens main sights. We came here on purpose because of the Iron Maiden concert at the nearby Olympic stadium (10-15 min walk) so it served us well, as we didn't go to downtown Athens. Hotel consists of two parts (with different names) - one is pet friendly, one isn't. In between is a fair size pool with several sunbeds. Rooms are spacious, but as others said - dated. Housekeeping is non existent - put a complaint the safe deposit box wasn't working as well the fridge, AC was barely working with strange sounds, asked for extra pillow - no one solved even one of these, nor even apologized. As we stayed only one night didn't bother to complain again. Breakfast is generous and good quality - many items to choose from fruits, pastries, cold cuts and cheese, eggs, sweets,.... Location is in the middle of residential area with nothing to see or do except the Olympic stadium and Mall of Athens.

This lovely quiet hotel is off the beaten path in a nicer area of town. It is so quiet yet very contemporary in style and comfort. I am glad we stayed here for a business event. The event center was connected and we were also part of a tour that my husband was hosting/guide for. The beds were firm yet comfortable. I am one to love my morning coffee and it was a delight to have actual glass coffee cup and saucer. The food was excellent and the choice for a buffet breakfast was also very fresh and the variety was great. The coffee bar was also very friendly and accommodating. Everything about this hotel lets me know that they care and are there for you. I will come here again if I am in Athens again.

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 🌞

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.

The company we received before helped us make a reservation for a few days, and then I didn’t want to move around, so I continued to renew the subscription at his house. The overall service is good, the front desk is very enthusiastic, and the front desk has different snacks every day to entertain guests for free; buffet breakfast It’s not bad; the traffic is a 15-minute drive from the hotel to Syntagma Square, the room is relatively clean, and the room facilities are up to three-star standards in China, everything else is OK.

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!!!

Very good, the location is in the center of Kifisia, the location is very eye-catching, there is a small swimming pool, I love summer

We start with the positive aspects: very appreciable breakfast in quality, quantity and variety, available from 7 to 11 which is not all of us. Receptionists gentle. Now we go to the rest. At the arrival, despite the reservation provided double rooms (we are all colleagues because it is a work trip) they tried to replace us three marriage, replaced after our protests. The rooms had a small bathroom, with a window that looks at the axis room, a few centimetres; the shower will be 60 x 60, wash with the tent applied on it because there is no box; The washing machine looks like a small waterway, size camper. Women in the cleaning room are very urged to change sapony, towels and baths every day, to barbe at all ecological sensitivity (I tried to present it at the reception but I was not absolutely understood, and I don't speak the language) but if it is to swallow a floor, empty a powder, or throw a bag with inside the pizza cartridges their scourge disappears, to re-emerging if they have to remove the device left below from the spine Then the phone at the wall is true, but it is very basic. This hotel still uses the keys instead of the magnetic cards: and of them it is very jealous, at the point that people in the room were two, but the key to which they were entitled was one! The differential is not there, the ecological transaction must still begin here. See you a little, I won't go back to this hotel, but I hope it is in Athens, it is a wonderful city!
