The location is amazing directly besides the Metro & very close to Acropolis & Acropolis Museum. Also on top of the street there is Mcdonald's which is open 24 hours, that help when you are hungry or thirsty at anytime. The price is very affordable for the location, the environment in the place is very nice as you meet different people from different countries, backgrounds, ages. It was my first ever experience to share the room with people I don't know but it was a very nice XP.

The stairs to the top bed is metal and round which hurt the legs when you climb them "really recommend to change them to more comfortable option"

The Location is just by the acropolis, everything was a walk reach. It was nice to have Breakfast included, I would have expected better coffee, but it was better than nothing. Every room has a bathroom so you only share with people in your room, and you also get a quiet big locker.

I booked this hostel for the rooftop bar, however it wasn't open due to not being high seasons. While staying there I discovered another hostel called 'Safe Space', which has a rooftop open all year round with a bar and a wonderful view of the Acropoli. I ended up going there most of the nights. Also, this other hostel is only 20 mins walk from the acropolis and it's half the price of this one.

Simple breakfast, but for free there was enough variety for me (cereals, bread, fruit, etc). Loved the rooftopbar with views on the acropolis. I stayed in a 6 beds room, but it felt quite spacious and it had a lovely balcony. Big locker to put your stuff in. I also felt safe staying here, as the main entrance and your room door need codes to enter. Nice and helpful staff with anything you need. The biggest plus I'd say is the location. It was no more than 5 minute walk to the entrance of the Acropolis or the temple of Zeus, and about a 15/20 minute walking distance to the other main historical sites! Also quite some cheap places to eat near the hostel. I experienced it as a clean, well organised and well located hostel. I would definitely recommend this place!

I always prefer to have curtains with hostel beds for a bit more privacy, which this hostel sadly didn't provide.

Great location!!!! So close to metro and key location to get everywhere. Bed’s were comfy, modern clean bathroom in room, balcony was lovely. Receptionists were so helpful and nice. The rooftop and bar were nice to socialise in. Left my suitcase in the little room while I was checked out before my flight and it was perfectly safe. Overall just good vibes! I would definitely come back again, especially for the price!

Only thing was one of the lockers in the room was broken but the room wasn’t full so we all got a working locker. One small suggestion would be to maybe have a privacy divider on the bunk beds, personally I wasn’t bothered by this but another girl in the room said she’d prefer that.

Everything was absolutely amazing!!! The staff were soooo kind and helpful, they had happy hour in the lobby and then happy hour on the rooftop. From the rooftop you can see the acropolis which was breathtaking at night. The rooms were clean and cozy, the beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were clean. (Of course it depends on your roommates and how clean they are) It can be a very social hostel from what I could tell although it all depends on you of course. Plus Dima the bartender on the rooftop is one of the best guys you can meet up in a hostel. He s very social and kind and helpful I only have good words to say about him. The girls in reception and on of the guys are also very helpful and fun, kind and very funny.

I don t have anything bad to say about this I had a blasting time

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location is amazing, and I felt really safe walking around the area esp as a woman alone. The beds were comfortable, and they had recently installed curtains in my room, so that was great. Rooftop has a nice view, but only open at certain times. I stayed in a woman only dorm and I would highly recommend.

The locker doors in the bedrooms were a bit broken. Whilst the room was clean, there is some room for improvements in the bathroom (extractor fan clogged with dust and dirt, small amount mold in the shower, toilet sometimes continuously flushing). The ladder is quite hard to get up onto the top bunk, and could do with another handle to hold onto. Overall I wouldn't let these things put you off as I had a great time here, just suggestions for improvements for the future.

The hostel is located only a short walk to the Acropolis and its Museum, This hostel is centrally located to the historic tourist attractions located around the Acropolis.. Tourist attractions within a 15 minute walk include the Acropolis, Temple of Zeus, Syntagma Square, Panathenaic Stadium, Hellenic Parliament , Athens National Garden and many other sites. Public transportation is within a 3 minute walk which allows for easy access to other parts of Athens and the Airport. Many different food options from quick service to sit down dining are located within a couple minutes of this facility. The hostel itself is very nice as the rooms are clean, nicely decorated and quiet. An elevator can be used to access the rooms after a day or night exploring Athens. Overlooking an orange tree lined street, this hostel makes it easy to be a tourist while providing a great place to rest and prepare to see everything Athens has to offer.

Actually, It's one of the best properties I've stayed in, The location is near to Acropoli Museum and I have spent one day there, I recommend visiting such a great place which magnify the civilization of Greece, the location is so near to Syntagma metro station and it's facilitate the movement in the city. When it comes to Hotel facilities, It's a wonderful, The breakfast is more than great, there are verities of food including Bacon, Cheddar, milk, juices, coffee, eggs, many kinds of jams and Nutella, Oats with milk. and Fruits. I didn't stay in such property like that before! The room was spotless with balcony. The staff are very friendly, They helped me when I asked to extend my stay, and even when I tried to check-out, They put me in the same room with Spanish guys and others from New Zealand. It was really a nice experience.

Everything was great.

I liked the location, you have the main museum, the akropoli, metro and many restaurants and stores nearby 🏛️🍽️🛍️ Also how the interior’s looked like. The view from the upper terrace was beautiful. ♥️ Big thanks to the young ginger guy from the reception, he was very kind and helpful at all times! ☺️👨‍💻

To be improved IMAO: - The metallic little thing for closing the room lockers, is not functional at all 😅 lockers lack of space. -Also room doors have enter codes and twice mines were not working so I had to go to reception to get a new number. -Breakfast is free however could be a bit better and wider choice of options 🥐 juice was too sugary🧃

This is an exceptional location for exploring the city. The Acropolis is within a few minutes walking distance, a metro station is just around the corner to head further out, and there's a pick-up point 5 minutes walk around the corner for many of the coach trips. The free breakfast was great quality and helped save money, and the roof top bar is a good place to meet other traveler's. Hostels can be very 'hit or miss' with hygeine and cleanliness, however, Athens Backpackers was very clean and felt safe and secure. The staff were very helpful and will give advice on how to get around the city etc. It's a little pricey, but considering the quality, location, cleanliness, and the free breakfast, it was well worth it.

You always take somewhat of a gamble with hostels on who you'll be sharing your room with. The first night had two of the adjacent rooms booked out by a large group of guys on tour, who were drinking and being crazy loud. Which can sometimes make for a decent vibe if you're in the mood and it's not affecting anyone else, but can be bothersome when it gets to 3am and you're trying to sleep. This was only a one off though, and the rest of the stay had more respectful traveler's staying in the place who drank and socialised in the bar areas, but were quite and respectful of everyone else when they were in their rooms.
