Meni Hotel

So, where do I begin. First off, believe all the reviews about the owner! Don’t make our mistake thinking we’ll just stay out of his way. My partner and I booked this hotel via Expedia (6 nights end of September 2025). We arrived at 10.30pm to be told by the receptionist that we had to pay 60€, on top of the 30€ local tax (which is the only charge we were expecting to pay on arrival). They claimed Expedia did not charge us enough for the room. We attempted to dispute this, saying that is between you and Expedia, not us, as we had already paid in full to Expedia the quoted room price. The owner (old man) was there yelling at us and the receptionist (in Greek so not known what was being said). We asked what happens if we do not pay, and it was stated forthright, you will not be checked in. It was late, we were tired, so we reluctantly paid, as they were just not budging or being fair to their guests. Even if you have no direct encounter with the owner, you will hear him in the middle of the night. We were awoken several times during our stay from hearing him down at reception yelling at either guests or staff (I assume) even at 2am in the morning. The TV in the reception is often on at an extremely loud volume. I asked the receptionist if she could turn it down, and she said she was not allowed. I wish I never booked my stay here!!

Checked in and had to pay additional 45 euro fee due to internal issue with expedia. Sheets smell like cigarettes. Second evening door key didnt work. Waitied at front desk while hotel staff were in a heated argument for 5 minutes. Room on second floor, could hear them yelling till 11:30pm. Checked out a day early to go elsewhere. Definitely avoid.

Extremely bad smoking smell all over the hotel. Despite EU regulations that explicitly ban smoking indoors, there were people constantly smoking at the reception / breakfast area. The smells would even come from the ventilation in the room.

No complaints. Basic needs met no glitz or glam but fine by my standards. Location on the outskirts but transportation easy to grab. Service bueno.

Wonderful, modern accommodations, staff was great

Very clean and spacious!

Upon our arrival, the receptionist warmly greeted us with a smile. However, the presence of two men and a lady engaged in a heated argument and smoking in the common area made us feel uneasy, especially as non-smokers. The lingering smell of smoke was quite unpleasant. To our surprise, upon returning to our room after a day out, we discovered that no housekeeping had been carried out during our entire stay. Despite being there for three nights, we did not receive fresh towels, the bed linens were unchanged, and the bin remained untouched for three days. This lack of cleanliness is unacceptable for a hotel that prides itself on being three stars. The hotel boasts of coffee and tea facilities in both the common area and rooms, yet we found none during our stay. This oversight is unacceptable. If we return to Athens, we will not be choosing to stay at this hotel again.

In general it was a good experience to be in tgis hotel. The most important fact is that it is clean. Room was not small. The location is near the metro station and you have access to other places. Some good restos around. The breakfast was ok, not many varieties though. Not overcrowded hotel. The staffs were friendly. The owner was always there and it was easy to hear his loud voice. They did not answer my messages that i sent them when i first booked, but out needs were met.

BedBugs infested hotel

Smoke filled hotel. Didnot havebasic amenities. Very disappointed and not worth the price paid. The reception staff were exceptional. One of the ladies manning the measly breakfast area was great. There was another who was so unhelpful

Area located in unsafe neighborhood. Very limited parking space. During our stay tourists who were checking in had money and documents stolen from them by imposter posing as employee of this hotel. Need security improvement.

The hotel was in excellent condition and was very clean. The staff was really friendly and helpful too. The location was a little further than I expected but it helped being close to their metro system. One morning our group witnessed the owner yelling at a man in the lobby area. He threw something at the guy and knocked his coffee over. It made us all very uncomfortable in the way he treated the poor guy. Every morning in the small room off the lobby there was someone smoking and it made the lobby smell horrible.

Good clean rooms, friendly staff, 20 min walk into city centre (metro available) Would stay there again

Very friendly and helpful staff. Located in very busy and noisy area No bar facilities

The buffet breakfast was skimpy. Nothing was replenished, the coffee was extremely weak and undrinkable. If you didnt get to the buffet early, there was very little left to eat. The concierge staff were genuinely nice and very helpful, but they couldn't fix the breakfast.

Nice place to stay. Love the large balcony. Room was clean, bathroom was clean (with bidet). Issue: Need to improve on the breakfast! The lady made coffee, look likes tea- tasted horrible. I would stay again!

Cleanliness, staff, and the hotel itself were all great. If you go further inside about 800m from the hotel, lots of homeless people and druggies I found quite disturbing not knowing the city that well as a tourist.. Breakfast time started at 0815 which was too late for me to join when I have tours booked for around 0730. Otherwise train station is only 3 min away. Lots of places to eat around. Easy to catch taxi.

We checked-in hoping to get a room early (around 10AM). It seemed like a hectic time for the one (and only) staff person working the desk, as she handled check outs, a rude guest and a taxi driver. We were delighted to be informed our room was available early, and we could drop off our bags in the room, clean up a bit before getting breakfast from a local diner. Surrounding area (Ierotheou street) is definitely not a place to visit - especially at night. Many local shops, and great places to eat within walking distance- metro conveniently within 1/2 block of hotel. The traffic circle is busy through most of the night, light sleepers may hear the traffic (the room was facing the circle). Morning breakfast here was lacluster, very simple..we had better. Overall, we would stay here again, if needed.

Clean and adequate accommodations. Not the best neighborhood at night.

Very nice and helpful staff. Clean and Convenient in transport.
