From the terminal the hotel you reach on foot. In spite of the immediate vicinity of the airport you hear inside of the hotel no noise from the planes. The soundproofing shows full effect. The spacious and generous lobby seemed Nobel. There is also the artemis bar with very nice ambience. The hotel realm of 'superior' on 'deluxe' to 'executive'. The rooms work modern and tastefully decorated. The interior is in cherry wood decor. Ample lamps separately adjustable lamps provide an individual lighting. Desk and tv-corner are available. Wi-fi in the whole hotel. In the room is furthermore a kettle ..., an iron and a hair dryer. The beds feel initially soft on, but sleeping comfort. The bathroom is fully tiled. A large mirror with lateral lighting and a lit shaving mirror are available. In the bathroom there's a glass door in the separate shower with read more

Almost perfect airporthotel, in absolute proximity to airport, very recommendable! I as gladly in this hotel if i Athens a flight booked. I have rarely been in such good beds slept, i therefore come always gladly back. There the prices relatively high it is advisable the room in advance to book and also to the accor hotel program to write. read more

The hotel is directly opposite the arrivals hall at the airport, therefore short paths after arrival or departure. Very nice front desk in the hotel. I was from the start thrilled by this house. Despite the near airport no noise. Good beds. read more

    Directly at the airport, ideal for an overnight stay, if you from the port and on the next day not long to be, before you flight. S-u-bahn on the doorstep

Upholds with huge effort the standard for business travelers archived

The hotel is located very central at the airport of Athens. It is only about 30 meters from the arrival-exit of gate 3 to the hotel. The ride by bus or taxi to the city center (circa 35 km) takes about 50 minutes. The staff is very friendly and makes every effort to meet the requirements, in particular those of business travellers. The check-in extended to an unusual length and the check-out was also painfully slow, as interpolated with a lot of unnecessary questions. The regulation of the resources of the room by using the chipcard seems to be still ... relatively unstable. Apparently, on pressing the light switch, all the fuses were blown, which is why I was left in the dark in the middle of the night. After I got to the reception, it was taken care of immediately though. The guest who is about to arrive next should put his luggage in between the door and the frame though, as otherwise you probably won't find the slot for the chipcard. The doors of the toilet, the (separate) bathroom and the closet are constructed in a disadvantageous way, as they completely block the hallway when they are open. The windows are obviously sound-proofed, but they are not able to completely muffle the sound of the that planes take off. The prices of the minibar are almost above reasonableness (small water = 3.50 euros; 033l beer = 5 euros). At reasonable prices the hotel would probably have more business. The breakfast buffet was of sufficient variety, the juices freshly pressed. However, the individual buffet tables were scattered all over the room. In the otherwise well stocked bread selection I was missing a good brown bread though - just like most of the time in the Mediterranean. All in all a good hotel for business travelers, who have to do their business not directly in Athens, but rather in the proximity of the airport. read more

Very good location, if you are looking for Airportnähe - just across the street. Very high rates for all ( check the Minibarpreisliste highly recommended - Almonds EUR 5 -). Since it was across the airport, you can save EUR 24 , - for breakfast and eat and drink there. All in all a bit disappointing. read more
