About this place Economy Hotel

Economy Hotel, on Kleisthenous street in central Athens, is a no-frills, gay-friendly budget option. It's situated between Omonia and Monastiraki, where commercial blocks dominate the landscape. Rooms are straightforward: wood furniture, a TV, minifridge, and free Wi-Fi, with most having a small balcony. A buffet breakfast is included in the price, and the roof terrace offers a view of Lycabettus hill. You can walk to the Acropolis, Plaka, and the Ancient Agora from here. Metro stations are also nearby, making it easy to get around. The streets surrounding the hotel are filled with shops and offices, which means they're busy during the day but quiet at night. It's a good choice if you're looking for a cheap, central base and don't plan on spending much time in your room. The hotel's location is its strongest selling point, with prices that won't break the bank. You'll find it on Kleisthenous street, between the hustle of Omonia and the charm of Monastiraki.

It's clean, the rooms are comfortable, and the shared bathrooms were always clean. There are no stairs. It's well located near the market and Monastiraki Square.

Easy to find. Ideal location. Really. Super central. I even came back to the hotel during the day. Great welcome, helpful staff. Simple breakfast. A bit of choice. Functional room. Perfect for a stay in Athens. Don't forget the rooftop for a nighttime view of the Acropolis. Drinks available at reception.

Friendly people, but it is in a neighborhood where there are many streetwalkers and prostitutes, but we had no problems at all during our stay. Price-quality ratio is OK.

The hotel is very basic but serves its purpose. The breakfast is basic but sufficient.
