Reviews of Athens Backpackers

18 November 2010 Jagdip would recommend this property

Liked: Shockingly close to the Acropolis and other major attractions, common room with movie projector, cheap walking tour, great staff, awesome place to meet diversity of travelers, and great bar with board games and karaoke.

Disliked: Basically nothing, except that they don't provide locks for their lockers, so you have to bring your own. Having said that, I had 5 other room mates and I left my things out in the open with no problems at all.

13 November 2010 Lindsey would recommend this property

Liked: I stayed here multiple times during a six-week trip to Greece, and every time I love coming back! The staff were extremely helpful with whatever questions/concerns I had with transportation in and out of Athens. As far as places to meet fellow travelers, I don't think this place can be beat. Daily tours, breakfast in the lounge, and the bar on the roof all make great places to meet people! I would highly recommend this hostel to anyone staying in Athens on a budget and/or looking to meet people during their stay.

Disliked: The breakfast in the morning leaves something to be desired.

12 November 2010 Brett would recommend this property

Liked: The location was excellent, staff were very friendly and brekkie was great, toast and cheese and boiled eggs. Lockers in room, I think they should put some mirrors in each room cause it saves people waiting for the shower and toilet. Would defo recommend this hostel.

Disliked: Only thing i didnt like was they had one shower and toilet on each floor so it was abit of a wait always in the mornings.

29 October 2010 Marian would recommend this property

Liked: The view of the Parthenon from the rooftop bar was amazing, and so were the people up there who were all so friendly and laid back. As an older traveller I didn't know if the young people would accept me, but they were great and I had the best time. It is super easy to get to and right in the middle of the greatest sites, I couldn't believe it. I hope to come back again and bring my grandaughter in a couple of years.

Disliked: No laundry facilities
