We stayed at the hotel Rio Athens in June 2008. This hotel is absolutely the best choice in Athens. Clean and near the city attractions. Just few steps away to the subway, (metro station METAXOURGHIO).
The staff was polite and made us feel at home and a great assistance for touring Athens. Buffet Breakfast was delicious.
We surely recommend this hotel to others.

It begins with a rude receptionist with terrible phone manners who is impatient and hangs up on you. Location is dull with boozy characters outside in daytime. Takes half hour by taxi from Sintagma - much too long. Staff is awful. Service is awful. Friendliness does not exist. Ugly lobby. Terrible rooms. You can do better at the Sintagma hotels. Not so cheap either. They wanted 85e a night. Next day I returned to Sintagma and stayed at Pan Hotel for 60e a night in a much better room and location. Try harder to find something else. PS it is not a GAY hotel. Although they advertise in Gay listings, they are far from gay friendly.
