I did notice a couple of homeless people around the property but I never felt unsafe. I don’t believe any hotel in the area is able to do anything about this social problem. The employees and management of Polis were extremely helpful and accommodating. Their hospitality and warmth was evident. They all care about the quality of service delivered. They all do take their work seriously. The food at Polis is amazing!! Us Greeks know how to cook. Thank you Polis for your professionalism and patients. I will consider your property again for my future travels to my homeland. BLESS…

Lift small and awkward as it has double doors which needed to be pushed to open. The corridor was dark and gloomy. The shower head didn't work.

Many reviews talk about Omonoia Square being dangerous, specially at night. The hotel is well located, close to public transportation and walkable to the main landmarks in athens. However, since it’s a very central location in the city it shows more than other areas. I Uber/taxi at night as needed and I did not witness any issue. I did not feel unsafe at any time and the staff was amazing. Breakfast was also good. The room/bathroom was dated, but well maintained.
