MONK Monastiraki Suites

The Host was very kind to us. Position is perfect to visit the city centre. Clean and up to expectations

The hotel was not as it appeared online. Room like a dorm room, Elevator to our tiny room was hot and small, barely 2 people could fit into it. There was no door on the elevator, only the outer door. The worker did not show how to get out, we were stuck until someone came to use it and opened it. We were not told when rooftop bar opened so we went and it was padlocked. When we were told hours and went later it was nice, best part of hotel. Very poor communication from staff, we always had to chase them down to ask. Door to hotel big and hard to open, hotel entry dirty and unkept, dated. We will not return.

The staff was very friendly and helped us with everything we needed. The location is great with everything on walking distance. The only thing is that it can be a bit noisy in the evening.

The Monk Suites are smack bang in the popular centre of Athens as such the amount paid for the rooms is reflected in the facilities. I was told that the arrangements for check would be sent to me on the morning of check in. I received a message asking when I was due to arrive but nothing else. As this facility has no reception this seemed a problem. Having asked the bar staff one of them contacted the manager and check in instructions were received quickly. This is good but after a hot and stressful day of travelling the last thing needed. In a room almost entirely of concrete sounds travel and unfortunately some other guests didn't realise that and were making noise through the night leading to a disturbance during sleep. Finally, on the second and third nights there was no hot water for a refreshing shower, simply a must in a hot climate such as Athens.

アテネの各観光地まで徒歩で行ける立地は最高。 部屋内も基本的には清潔。 一方で、壁が薄いので外の音は常に聞こえる。 ２連泊でも言わないと新しいタオルやシーツは出てこない。 入口が薄暗く、「泊まるだけ」が目的なら良いが、ホテルと思って泊まらない方がいい。

The room was spacious and modern. Only a couple of blocks from the Metro and close to everything. Costas checked me in and remembered my name throughout the visit. The rooftop bar is a bonus! Highly recommended!
