Dioskouros Hostel
Athens

check- in was very smooth, location is superb, facilties are nice and clean.

Room was very comfortable, with a good bed, balcony, cupboard and fridge provided. Shared bathrooms were exceptionally clean, had no issues. Very good central location

The receptionist Mr. Alex is not only very kind but he is so exceptional, considerate and helpful, really one of a kind, he allowed me to stay in their garden while passing time - waiting to go to the airport and not only that he even offered to help me go to the metro or bus station so I can save from taxi fare by taking public transport - he helped me took my luggage to the bus stop near the Parliament, I was so happy haven't had experienced somebody helping me like that, a big salute and thank you Mr. ALEX, may God Bless you in return for your kindness.

We enjoyed our stay, comfortable bed, clean facilities, perfect location to reach famous tourist sites by walking, lovely old Plaka right there. Staff were friendly, and breakfast was delicious.

Great location, clean, in particular the shared showers and toilets. Good air conditioning in the room. The host very kindly provided an early breakfast for us because we needed to catch a flight. Excellent value for money overall.It seems the place has recently been improved; if you check the reviews, most of the bad ones are old.

Great location just 10' from Syntagma. It has a nice garden area for breakfast with a guest cat. Towels are included and there is a socket next to the beds. The receptionist is the best! He answered all my questions and was very helpful.

Safe place for a solo traveler, comfortable and clean. Great experience! Great staff!

The location is perfect, everything is walking distance

We received a warm welcome into this old building set in a quiet side street in the Plaka district, just a 5-minute walk from Syntagma metro station. Our large, high-ceilinged room had one bunk and two singles, sockets for all, and a small washbasin and mirror in the corner. The old, shuttered wooden doors led to a small balcony overlooking the street and an office building opposite. The beds were super comfortable but the blankets were quite thin for the December air, so we had to sleep with the air-con set to 'heat' - which was fine, though not ideal for the environment. There was a shared lockable shower-and-toilet room, a separate lockable toilet, and an unlockable area with a frosted-glass shower cubicle. Modernly decorated and clean, but I imagine not enough facilities for a busy period. The highlight for us after a tiring day exploring the city was the communal room at the end of the tiled courtyard/garden area- a long table with benches for meals, and a living area with rug and woodstove and a giant TV screen connected to Netflix. Boardgames, books and a friendly local cat added to the cozy vibe. Breakfast was packed croissants, fresh fruit, cereals, boiled eggs, simple sandwich ingredients, and coffee and tea. Get there early or you'll lose out, as they serve the bare minimum for guests and the milk goes fast! The old town highlights were just minutes away. Big lockers are available for just 2 EUR (unlimited time). Overall- an excellent place to stay for those on a budget wanting to get a feel for old Athens and who aren't fussy about shared bathrooms and the like. Staff were friendly and helpful.

This was a very nice guesthouse in Athens old town, right beside Temple of Zeus, Hadrian's Arch and the Acropolis. The breakfast was included and had some great options. Staff were professional.
