Cecil Hotel
What Guests Say
Everything you need is there. This is not a luxury hotel, but then you're in the heart of athens, spend very little ad a full breakfast is included. Love the wooden elevator too.

Location excellent. Road noise but not unbearable. Breakfast sufficient. Bread, cheese, ham, coffee etc but was sufficient to get the day off to a good start. Bedroom was cleaned daily. Really enjoyable stay.

What an amazing hotel, and for such a budget-firnedly price. Extremely well located in the centre of the city, right next to Monastiraki Square, and such attractions as Hadrian's Library, the Roman Agora, central museums, Plaka and so many shopping and food options. The room was very well maintained and upket, and the housekeeping staff were kind, effiencient and thorough. A brilliant option, especially for budget-concious travllers, would happily recommend this place to anyone and everyone!

Pros: - Great location - Good price - I liked the old looking building - The breakfast was very below average, but hey, it had breakfast included which is great! All in all, the location is great, the staff were very pleasant, and i liked my stay very much.

It's mear the metro, Acropolis, Monastiraki 's nicest but also worst parts. Breakfast is no prize winner (nothing fresh like tomatoes or cucumber) but it starts the day. Lift is an asset, room's are big with high ceilings. Even mono-grammed towels & bedding. It's a nice old building with creaky wooden floors . Once upon a time it must've been magnificent. But still friendly for guests who want value for money on low budgets.

Nice old building with a beautiful old style elevator. The room was comfortable, closed windows kept the street noise away, the AC worked, also the internet(2nd floor). Arrived in the evening and the person was friendly and welcoming. Couldn’t find anything problematic during the stay. Breakfast is minimal, but ok for me. But, as a suggestion, they could do with a coffee-machine that grinds you a fresh cup. The large canister with the heated coffee seems somewhat wasteful. Great location for everything i needed incl walking to work, and having a short walk to the Airport Metro.

If you want a budget hotel in central Athens you could hardly get better. Five minutes from Monistiraki metro and all the huzzle and buzzle. Good starting point for exploring touristy areas, historic sites, also for further away attractions and everyday life of the city. A quirky old building from 1921, the lift is fantastic but I was a bit paranoid of using it! Beautiful rooms if you like it simple. Supermarkets nearby. A stone’s throw from Psiri’s night life and restaurants. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Comfy beds, spotlessly clean.

The location is incredible. Only a 5-minute walk to Monastiraki, Plaka, and the Agora. It’s very close to the Acropolis as well. There was also a 10-storey Hondos Center nearby. The area is generally safe and full of vibrant restaurants and supermarkets. The room and bathroom were basic but very clean. Mine was on the roof, so whenever I opened the door I saw the Acropolis which was fun. The air conditioner was great in this hot weather. The staff were nice and helpful. I left my luggage and collected it after almost 6 hours. So it was stored safely!
