Tempi Hotel

This hotel represents excellent value for money and is in a great location. This is a family run business and Owners and staff were extremely friendly and helpful providing us with the necessary maps of Athens, and information on the sights and local transport. The room had all the amenities we required including private bathroom with shower that had good pressure and hot water on demand. There was a cupboard to hang clothes, air-con, excellent wi-fi, small writing table & chair. Whilst the room was not overly large it was adequate for our needs. Luggage is transported by lift to all floors but not be used for guests who have to access the rooms by use of the staircase. We didn't consider this to be a huge problem for ourselves but could be an issue for people who don't negotiate stairs very well. The hotel is in a great location with a number of restaurants nearby and one right outside the front door. The Metro is a 5 min walk, Plaka about 10 min and Acropolis about 20 min with other historical sites within about a 15 min walk. The Changing of the Guard at Parliament House is also about a 15 min walk away. This is also close to the National Gardens and the Temple of Olympus Zeus. We would stay there again when we return to Athens.

Only one good thing about this hotel is the location No comfort whatsoever The shower room was dire. Window that blew a gale . Window into the bedroom would£not close due to illegal wiring going through it. So we were constantly cold Only one plug socket for the whole room. The Staff were the worst thing We arrived at 3 o clock , 3.5 hours after check in to be told by a very rude woman on reception that they did not know what time we were arriving and that I should have let them know, even though their policy says you need to let them know if you are arriving after midnight She also said she had a problem with my card. , even though I was paying in cash. I got an email from hotels . Com asking me to rate check in, which I did, The next morning I was bullied by the owner into changing my rating which I did just for a quiet life He was not happy that I said his daughter was rude. I pointed out to him that she was very rude and he started ranting and raving that I did not respond to his e mail asking when we were arriving. His e mail was sent at 2.30 when we were in the taxi. Then he started ranting and raving about my card. I pointed out to him that he had no right to try to take money off my card until I didn’t show up. He went quiet then and was as nice as pie for the rest of my stay All in all I wouldn’t recommend this hotel even location for the It is actually a basic backpackers hostel pretending to be something better

The room was very small, particularly the bathroom and shower. But the staff was friendly. The location was great. And the room was in good shape.

Location near lots of restaurants and shops but on a slope. Friendly staff and comfort room.

Note that there is no lift except for transporting luggage to your floor. The lift was full when we arrived so we carried our luggage to our third floor room. Room was awkwardly laid out but overall satisfactory and in a great location near shops and restaurants!
