Great location. Very clean rooms. Good staff. The hotel is 50 meters away from the metro station. Breakfast is excellent. Cost is proportional to the service. No WIFI in rooms, only in the lobby - bad!

For a start, some of the reviews that suggest the area is dangerous are, in our opinion, incorrect. Yes, the area is a bit scruffy, but we never felt unsafe. Even late at night it seemed to be perfectly safe to walk around the area, as there is so much traffic passing by. We were never hassled by anyone and... More

We stayed here in November 2012. Originally we had booked a triple room for us (couple) and my partner's mother. On getting there we discovered that the triple was the smallest one I had seen in my life. I complained to the reception that this was not what we were expecting from the photos they had posted, and she explained... More

I stayed 2 nights in Crystal City Hotel. It has perfect location just next to underground station, few minutes away from Sintagma Square. If you are lucky you will be able to see Acropolis from your room. The food is not bad. Hotel is clean and staff friendly and helpfull.

We came back from Cyclades and we stayed there two nights before flight back home. We came to the hotel at night, but there is a 24h reception. We got room as requested, on the top floor available. Room was enough size, bed was extremely comfy, bathroom was small but enough. Air con efficient, although it was rather noisy. Room... More

We stayed here for the Athens marathon and it was overall somewhere I would stay again. Our agent had booked us into candia which was overbooked so we were transferred to crystal. The chap on the day we arrived was fantastic, helpful - arranged breakfast for us at 4:45 on marathon morning. Unfortunately the staff who followed were terrible. Rude,... More

Great terrace where you can see the acropolis. Excellent breakfast buffet. Strong wifi in the public areas. Ample rooms. The location is close to the main touristed sections of town and easily walkable. Plus it is on the bus route from the major Athens bus station. To address some of the comments from other reviewers about the safety of the... More

The place where the hotel is located is not nice at all, taxi drivers waited for us to get in the hotel at night cause they said it was dangerous. Rooms are nasty, our room smelled really bad because of the bathroom and the dirty carpet. Inside the bathroom there were ants! Breakfast was ok. Next time I'm defenitely staying... More
