Hotel Lido

“The property is close to social amenities”

The spot was good, but I didn’t like the bathroom.

The room was infested with mosquitoes.

Polite staff everywhere, and there are plenty of restaurants close by; the bus stop is right next door and the 24‑hour reception is handy. I didn’t like a single thing: the room was dirty, the bathroom door was broken, and the bathroom itself was a disaster. I reported the door issue but they didn’t charge us. The location felt unsafe because of the many drunk people, and the lift barely worked.

The location is good. The cockroaches are terrible.

The accommodation is affordable and sits a few blocks from Omonis, a hub in Athens, but the area has long been a low‑status zone with a fair amount of crime and prostitution, so if you’re traveling alone, stay cautious after dark. The hotel itself is clean but low‑standard: rooms have fridges but no kettles, missing glasses and cups, few power outlets, and no bedside lamps. Instead of a kettle, you can get hot water at the reception café—bring a thermos if you want coffee or tea in the room. A big plus was the private balcony, a nice spot to sit during the day and evening. A fruit and vegetable shop is just around the corner at the insomnia store, offering yoghurt, bread, cheese, etc., and most other shops you’ll need are within walking distance. From the hotel you can walk to Plaka and Monasiraki, the tourist quarters with many restaurants and traditional stores, including a street of clothing, fabrics, yarn, embroidery, silverwork, leather, and more. Another highlight is the small square opposite the hotel, where you can grab cheap, tasty kebabs in pita for €3. I highly recommend the souvlaki place there, and I also bought lamb skewers and grilled fish. Most staff were friendly and asked daily if I wanted the room cleaned. Room rates are relatively low. Overall, I was satisfied with my stay, though it might not be the best for families because of the poor and abusive people in the neighbourhood. I didn’t feel unsafe, having stayed at a nearby hotel many times, but this time it was fully booked so I moved across the street. I went to the previous hotel and had a good breakfast for €8 because I know it’s good. I’m used to low‑standard accommodation, but I would have liked a kettle. The staff explained it was due to a bad electrical system; if that was the case, I would have appreciated free tea or coffee in the bar, but it cost the same as any other café. A bedside lamp and a few hooks in the bathroom for towels and clothes would have been nice. The bed was fine, with a solid spring base, but a bit too firm for me—still acceptable.
