Hotel was clean but was small. View of the hotel was the backyard so nothing special. Didn’t try their breakfast as I didn’t have time. Hotel didn’t have a slope up. So you have to climb up stairs with your luggage. But service from the staff was great. Gave us wine for our birthday. Location is about 5mins from the train station and a few tourist attraction.

We spent 4 nights at the beginning of August staying in an XL room at the Modernist. Superb room - wrap around balcony, hot tub, outside shower & complimentary drinks. Whilst the room was exceptional it was the staff that really made the hotel. Everyone was so helpful and friendly, from Reception through to the wine tasting & breakfast staff, nothing was too much for them. It’s a bit unfair to pick out one person, but Mike in the restaurant was the epitome of knowledgeable, polite service with a smile, and he made the best hotel coffee I’ve ever had (in over half a century of staying in hotels). Well done Modernist, and thank you, we will make it our base whenever we’re in Athens.

Joli boutique hotel au design raffiné et précis, dans un coin de la ville où les hôtels sont rares. Les chambres sont petites. Le service est parfait. Idéal pour monter au Lycabette avant le dîner ou tôt le matin.

I stayed here for two nights on the way back from the islands. Where the hotel excels: Design forward. Thought is given to every design choice and it comes through to create a modern and minimalist vibe that creates an immersive experience for the guest. Staff: The staff at reception were always there to help and the service felt genuine and authentic. Neighborhood: The neighborhood is very green and shady which is not the case with all of Athens. There are great shopping streets and cafes nearby. Easy walk to the subway. Felt like i was in the real city and not a tourist zone. Rooftop bar: Amazing place to have a drink and watch the sunset. Service at the roof was superb. Where the hotel can improve: Wifi: The wifi signal is not strong, and even loading basic things like instagram reels seemed like a challenge. Most of the time i just used cellular data as it was faster and more stable then the hotel wifi. Noise: Not recommended for light sleepers. If I wasn't hearing noise from the street, I was hearing noice from housekeeping or guest conversations in the hall. Bedding: I found the sheets and bedding to be scratchy and very thin. The hotel should invest in a higher thread count or different type of cotton to provide better sleep. Breakfast service: The first morning I went to breakfast I had no idea what to do, where to sit or if there was a menu. I just ended up helping myself. It was not till my last day that i learned you could order eggs. The food was delicious. The service at breakfast was not.

Nettes Stadthotel in guter Lage. Die Zimmer sind trotz der größten Kategorie relativ klein. Der Frühstücksraum ist kein Luxus und eher klein und dunkel. Insgesamt war uns das Ganze etwas zu kumpelhaft. Ich mag legeren Service, aber ich bin Gast und nicht der beste Buddy der Angestellten. Es gibt vielleicht Leute die das mögen. Mir ist das zu “amerikanisch”.
