Reviews of Hotel Elikon
N A
3 stars for the hospitality. The rooms are small & basic, but clean. No water at the arrival - not so great as we arrived in the middle of the night. The location however - we weren't comfortable walking around at night. There are many homeless people and MANY junkies. Unfortunately we wouldn't stay here again.

Georges was a wonderfull host. The hôtel is Nice, clean and everyone is kind There. It is very close to the old city. Plaka... and the métro is on the door too. Thanks for everything.

A very cosy and conveniently located affordable hotel close to public transport (just a few metres from Omonia metro station), a supermarket, restaurants/cafes, Omonia square. Vanda and George at the front desk were absolutely lovely and very accommodating, providing the best service we could hope for. Room had working AC, unexpectedly great Wifi, mini fridge, kettle, coffee+tea+sugar, private bat...

Perfect location. Rooms are spacious and beds are comfortable. Daily cleaning and fluffy towels. There is a supermarket basically downstairs and only a few steps to Onomonia Square. Trains 1 minute walk away and hop on Hop off buses at the square too. Plenty of restaurants and bakeries around. Highly recommend
