Pi Athens — Hotel in Athens

I will give my honest thoughts about this place and I will start off by saying that we had a great stay here. The location is very nice and is close to the subway and sightseeing locations. Our room was cozy and had everything we needed, including a good airconditioner.

The only flaw in the room itself was that the rain-showerhead was somewhat broken and all the water came out of one side. Also sometimes whilst showering the water became a bit cold and then turn warmer again. This is not a deal breaker but might be of note if it can be fixed.

The selection of breakfast items was a bit small. The omelette was nice and all the basic's were there, but most importantly it got us through the start of our day.

We got this room through our trip advisor since they had to swich hotels after their former recommended hotel recently got a lot of complaints from other guests who said the employees were rude.

The employees here were really, really nice. We could not have hoped for employees that were more helpfull than this. The male employee was one of best english speakers we encountered during our trip. He helped us with our luggage, gave us a map of athens including recommendations on where to eat and was very nice in general.We were a bit early on arrival and he offered us another room which we declined but it was good service. He also offered to give us a free public transport card. Regardless of how much he gets paid, he does deserves a raise in my opinion!

The female employee we encountered arranged a cab for our departure and left a confirmation note in our room which was very thoughtfull.

Lastly because we did not book this room ourselves I find it hard to comment on the price vs quality. However I hope this review could...

One of the few worst experiences anywhere. In any other European city this hotel would be shut down for many violations first among them a chain smoking manager who smokes non stop at the front desk while browsing the internet turning the whole hotel into an ashtray smell, and COVID19 hygiene non compliance. This hotel falls well below the star system let alone 4 stars as they claim, and here’s why: No safe in the rooms, broken shower head and filthy, hot water comes and goes, broken flushing system, lumpy poor sponge pillows, broken window handles that do not close all the way, torn up curtains that fail to give you privacy, stained chair, 2 out of three light bulbs are not working in the bathroom, shampoo that smells awful, and finally not one single pencil or pen in the whole room. Modern looking but...

Perfect location within walking distance of syntagma and plaka. The rooms are clean and spacious. Its a small hotel so its quiet and calm. The staff are friendly. The breakfast is limited and not worth mentioning. We only used it the first day. Then used a nearby bakery. The topfloor suite does have acropolis view, but its still from a far distance, dont expect too much from that. Also the windows arent kept clean..so its really not worth it. Also there is no way of blocking out the sunlight entirely The 2 stars are due to some major problems. In the suite the a/c is insanely loud and doesnt keep a steady temperature. So you are forced to turn it on and off...
