Best Hotels near Holy Monastery of Saint Panteleimon at Kokkinaras of Pentelicus, North Athens

This is an excellent 3 star hotel, for me at the verge of being a 4 star one. Very good service and attentive personnel. Rooms are small but cozy and sufficient. Nobody stays in for long, just sleeping. At cooler days you may walk to kifisia shopping district or pay 6 euro for a taxi. Breakfast is good and despite a limited number of rooms, it was still pretty good. Not sure if you can ask for omelette or the like. Overall, i will go again for sure👍😁

Very satisfied, clean and cheap, away from the tourist area, but it is very convenient to take the subway directly. It is a place where locals live and experience the life of locals. Downstairs is a small commercial street, restaurant bakery coffee supermarket electronic products, etc., life is very convenient. For leisure travel, go out and cross the road without turning, walk to Line 3, it is very fresh, so it is very comfortable to walk without feeling tired. Because I ran smoothly, I lived for another day.

The Kefalari is located in a very nice neighborhood with cute shops and nice restaurants. They offered us a breakfast box due to no restaurants serving breakfast in the neighborhood. We had to leave at 2:30 am for a flight, so missed out on that but they had Nespresso pods available as well as water. The rooms are beautiful and have great amenities but the carpet needs replacing. I believe they are in the midst of renovations. There is a small elevator and also cookies, coffee and bottled water in the lobby.

Very good, the location is in the center of Kifisia, the location is very eye-catching, there is a small swimming pool, I love summer

Excellent customer service from booking the room restaurant room service!!! Very accommodate and friendly stuff !!! We were experiencing some problem with the bathroom and the lady at the front desk took action right away and solved the problem by calling the maintenance person We will visit again Thank you!!!

We chose to return 2 years later and stay longer because this Hotel ticks all the boxes. The location is ideal as more than a few hundred shops including lots of very memorable restaurants are within easy walking distance. The Hotel is not too big or small so the very friendly and helpful staff will always have time to meet your needs. The cleaning staff are very efficient, thorough and may learn your routine so you may have your rooms cleaned while you are out or enjoying your breakfast in the dining room. The breakfast is not a full blown buffet but should easily satisfy all but the pickiest of eaters. We did not tire of the variety even after 3 weeks and enjoyed every visit. The front desk staff even helped us by organising some day tours that were outstanding. Some notice of these requests would be required though, it shows how versatile they can be. This Hotel we consider to be our home away from home, with fresh air and exceptionally quiet rear facing rooms, perfect mattress etc. It is the ideal gateway to Athens. Note: Taxis are all cheap and newish now. Eating out is great value with amazing quality and variety. OMG you will love it!!!

We have stayed here before and were due to return two years ago but Covid happened. When we cancelled, we were told that our payment would be kept on hold until our next visit and they were as good as their word. Avra operates an efficient shuttle service to and from Athens airport which makes the transfer so much easier. Upon arrival we were offered complimentary soft drinks - so very welcome in the heat! Our en suite room with sea views was spacious, well appointed and very comfortable. Room service was also very prompt. In the morning we enjoyed our self-service bountiful breakfast. The restaurant staff and the ladies at reception were professional, helpful and very pleasant. Coupled with the fact that the ferry is a very short walk away, for us this is our hotel of choice in Rafina.

Let’s go in order: - Completely absent attention to the client. Staff is unprepared and bothered by anything you might ask them. - The carpets in the halls were filthy with multiple stains - The room was not clean, I found multiple hair on the chair close to the desk and on the towels in the bathroom as well as dust all around the room - I checked the bed and it was not dirty thankfully. Nevertheless it was incredibly uncomfortable and I could feel all the metal springs - I went to breakfast the first morning and the service was completely absent, no one greeted me in any way or asked what I wanted to drink for example (there are no coffee machines to make a cappuccino/tea/espresso/etc on your own so I would expect that someone asks me) - On the second day I went again for breakfast and took an orange juice from the dispenser; I saw something dark floating in the dispenser, but did not pay attention to it until I noticed it in my glass and took a closer look - it was a worm (!!!). I told the waitress and she came back to me sayin that it was a dark piece of apple (…) - I left it there because I did not want to discuss, but please check the pictures and let me know. Also, it was orange juice so not sure how the apple thingy ended up there. Overall I have no idea how they got 5 stars, but this place should just close. Everything about it was unacceptable and unprofessional. Do yourself a favour and never go to this place.

I've been in Athens many times, and my first advice is if you're visiting the Greek capital for sightseeing don't stay here. The hotel is in a remote northern suburbs, too far from Athens main sights. We came here on purpose because of the Iron Maiden concert at the nearby Olympic stadium (10-15 min walk) so it served us well, as we didn't go to downtown Athens. Hotel consists of two parts (with different names) - one is pet friendly, one isn't. In between is a fair size pool with several sunbeds. Rooms are spacious, but as others said - dated. Housekeeping is non existent - put a complaint the safe deposit box wasn't working as well the fridge, AC was barely working with strange sounds, asked for extra pillow - no one solved even one of these, nor even apologized. As we stayed only one night didn't bother to complain again. Breakfast is generous and good quality - many items to choose from fruits, pastries, cold cuts and cheese, eggs, sweets,.... Location is in the middle of residential area with nothing to see or do except the Olympic stadium and Mall of Athens.
