Platja Mandraki

Great staff and the breakfast is good. This is a clean and modern boutique hotel. You are 3 blocks from the Metro station and 4 stops to the central square in Athens. This is a neighborhood so the only knock is there are no real restaurants. Coffee shops yes, but for dinner you need to travel outside of the neighborhood. Recommend as you are touring include your main meal before you come back to the hotel. This is a clean quiet place. They held my luggage for free as I took a 3 day trip to see more of Greece. They are very gracious and friendly. Highly recommend this hotel as a base of adventure.

Perfect location - just outside of the super touristy areas and close to a central metro location. Some reviews complain about the street noise, but compared to major metropolitan cities in the US, the street noise was minimal. If you want a central location, this place is great!
