Kimon Hotel Athens

No elevator. Policy of no visitors, which is horrible, given that we do pay for our stay and should have visitors as we like as long as they are behaving and as long as they don’t sleep over. Imagine somebody on a business trip but cannot meet anybody at his hotel room. The hotel has no lobby at all. I don’t know if you consider 2 old chairs next to the main entrance as a lobby! Rooms are not cleaned or arranged every day. We stayed 7 nights, and the room was not cleaned or arranged at least 3 days (I mean 3 times, which also included no clean towels either for those 3 days. One of the front desk lied about asking one of our visitor for IID and information as that was the occasion we found out that no visitors are allowed. The visitor wanted to actually confront and rebuke the front desk person when we informed him about what the front desk said. The remaining front desk personnel were friendly, but the hotel policies were unacceptable. Location is good, but I would never stay at this hotel again.

We've stayed here before and love the situation, the scale and character of the hotel. The beds are the most comfortable I've ever had in a hotel, memory foam, and with neck support pillows too. The shower is great, all-singing, all-dancing. But ... the room felt really tired - the bathroom window didn't close securely, the shower door handle kept falling off, the tiles round the doorway hadn't been properly finished off, and on the first day, the towels and bathmat (clean) were frayed and holey. I can live with these things, as the room was clean and comfortable, but it feels like a bit of TLC is needed. Staff are friendly and helpful, including help with lugging the suitcase up a lot of stairs! Would I stay here again? Yes, but I hope they sort out the little niggly things.

We stayed at a Kimon Athens a hotel for 2 nights during a heatwave this July. We were pleasantly greeted by AC in the lobby and a very friendly staff member. The staff continued to be friendly and helpful! They give you a “Handy” smartphone that you can use to look up places and make phone calls. It came in Handy for finding restaurants and getting GPS directions. I wish this hotel offered breakfast but that is the only true downfall. Also be warned that the steps in this hotel are winding and a bit stairs if you have any trouble getting around this may be a concern. Otherwise I highly recommend Kimon Athens Hotel! Great location near Monastiraki!

Really friendly staff, a cool free smartphone provided to use during your visit and the location can't be beat! The small single room that I had was perfect for my trip. I'd definitely stay here again! The only small downside was that no food is served and nothing was open as early as I left for the airport, but I was able to eat at the airport easily.

I was misled by the good reviews. Our room was two floors up, no elevator. No breakfast, so the clerk had to find a place we could have a full breakfast before our 8 AM tour. Luckily the nice Central Hotel , just up the street , had a full buffet for 14 euros each. Any money we saved by staying at the Kimon was lost by the cost of the extra breakfast. This is on a one -way side street, plenty of grafetti. Close to some shopping tourist streets, no problem finding a good dinner, ATM, postcards, etc. The room was dirty enough my wife did not want to wash her hair, she decided to wait until the next hotel. We regret our decision to stay here.
