We loved the AthensWAS

The AthensWAS hotel is in a perfect location if you want to see the Acropolis and the surrounding historic sites and museums. A very easy walk to everything. The hotel is a beautiful boutique design with nice amenities. The staff was wonderful and very accommodating if you need to drop your bags before the room is ready. By the time we returned, our luggage was already delivered to our room. They also arranged a beautiful ride to the airport for us. We will absolutely stay here again when we return to Athens!

Excellent Boutique In Quiet Neighborhood

Love this hotel. I stay here a couple of times a year on business. Small and quiet with a nice staff. Right on the pedestrian street leading to the Acropolis and Museum

4/10 Fair

Location of hotel was excellent to all the main attractions however I felt the hotel was over priced. The rooms were tired looking and as for the restaurant “senses” i ordered room service as I had been up since 6am fo fly from Crete to Athens. The mushroom risotto was disappointing too salty and not worth the money. Anna was really helpful and stood out but the rest of the staff looked unhappy and miserable. Over priced hotel for what I got so won’t be back in November.

Very nice hotel in central Athens. Location is key, very walkable to attractions, dining and transportation. Room condition is very modern. Provided amenities are more than enough. FUSE restaurant provides a very nice view of acropolis. Staffs are very attentive.

Amazing boutique hotel in fabulous location

Fabulous location - short walk to all the sites and in centre of the old town restaurants and shops. The view of the Acropolis from the restaurant for breakfast or dinner was stunning and all the staff were excellent. Had the tasting menu one evening - amazing presentation and flavours. Breakfast was ordered from a wide selection of dishes all freshly prepared and served to the table rather than buffet style. Delicious.

The positives about this hotel are location and the friendly staff. The views to the Acropolis are fantastic. It is on the expensive side. The hotel only has one small tiny elevator.
