Hi, we are looking to stay in Athens for 6 nights at the end of January. I wonder if anyone could recommend a nice hotel in a safe area, walking distance to sights and restaurants etc. our budget is around 70 euros per night (double room & breakfast)
Thanks
I stay at the Attalos Hotel when I stay in Athens. It's a very clean budget hotel, centrally located, just a short walk from the Monastiraki Metro Station as well as the Plaka and Syntagma Square.

As our 'Brother' said, it is a good hotel, i stayed there also a few years back. Walking to anywhere from there is not more than 30mins for the main touristy spots.
it might be worth a look at www.athenstyle.com and www.athensstudios.com, and if you have a week you could go down the coast a little way to Glyfda and surrounds. There is good public transport into town and if you have a week the travel shouldn't be a factor. I couldn't find anything around e70 with consistent good reviews..friends stayed at Fivos recently and said it was excellent, but TripAdvisor reviews are mixed. Reviews for athens studios were pretty good and you have the flexibility of eating in should you wish.
Thank you. I will look at all suggestions.
If we stayed by the coast are there enough restaurants, shops etc open in January. also how easy would it be to get public transport from the coast to Delphi ?
Now, a friend already asked... is Athens beautiful?
Really, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Cliche? Perhaps! But, I've also come to realise that one can find beauty in chaos. On the other hand, even in the most beautiful cities, there are ugly sides to them... if you intend to look for them. See the beautiful sides & register those images & our lives would be better with these. Not forgetting... without darkness, one will never know light! :-)
It’s on all those annoying lists of ‘places you must see before you die’ but the city’s centrepiece, the Parthenon, and the Acropolis, the rocky hill on which it stands, really do live up to the hype. It’s more impressive than ever now that most of the scaffolding has come down and a massive restoration project launched in 1983 is finally nearing completion. The architectural skills of the ancient Greeks provide a stark contrast to the concrete jungle creeping up the foothills of the Acropolis. This clash between ancient and modern is a fitting symbol of a city that is ever changing, yet always timeless.
It sounds like a symbol of modern Athens for me! "Glass Runner" is located next to the Hilton Hotel and National Art Gallery. Made by Greek artist Varotsos he is always on his way to the center of the city...
Gazi is probably my favorite neighborhood for fun in Athens. Recently it has become more of a gay and lesbian area, but there are still a lot of other great clubs. It's nice because it's not as crowded as Psyrri is and I think the clubs are generally nicer.
Check it out, you will definitely find something you like. There aren't so many like big dance clubs, but nice chill lounges for good music and nice music. Rooftop clubs with big video screens and good music.
Christmas in Athens is great. The decorations, the shopping, the many happenings around the city... You can enjoy the Christmas spirit and at the same time the historical sites without the hordes and heat of the summer. check www.christmasinathens.gr
