Price is really competitive. Position is also good: close to the tube and far 10 minutes walk from the Acropoli. I would suggest to walk down to the Acropoli instead of going with the tube. there is a very nice and local market on the way, just few meters from the hostel. hostel has two PCs to navigate and wifi...

Very nice place for having vacations to Athens. The rooms were very clean and the showers also. The guys at the reception desk were extremely helpful and gave us good advises and informations about the city. Also they offer for free a walking tour to learn more about the history, was great! Acropolis, is only 10 minutes from the hostel... More

Decent price for what you get. - The bed bunks were nice and clean - I liked that we had A/C, although you have to pay an additional 3 euros I believe. Nonetheless, it saved us from the heat and at times it even got a bit chilly in the room... No complaints though! - I found the bathrooms to... More

Comfortable rooms, no covers but still very clean. Small balconies to hang laundry and washbasins in the rooms. Nice and clean, not very far from the main Monastiraki square (about a 5 minute walk) and around 15min to Gazi where the most popular clubs and bars are located. Free ouzo shot on the rooftop bar at the sister hostel near... More

Staying 3 nights at Hostel Zeus, I found it to be a decent place for the budget traveler. The location is quite central being merely a 5 minute walk to the closest Metro station,10 mins from the Acropolis and there was a supermarket just nearby. However the area can be a little shady at night as it's virtually empty with... More

Fish market down the road smells gross but can't smell inside hostel. Overall the location was good and central. Guy on reception was lovely, very informative and funny. Good decor to match culture. Room was small but clean and adequate, it had a sink, wardrobe, desk, chair and 2 single beds. Bedding included. The shared toilet didn't have a sink... More

I took part to the wlaking tour with George and it was a really good experience! The toilets and showers could have been more clean... but it is not the fault of the staff, who is... More

I was here for 2 nights and there were some great things and some not so great things about this hostel. The staff were nice and as I had been robbed on a bus on the way to the hostel they were extremely helpful and let me wait until check-out to pay. The walking tour was good and I really... More
