Acropolis Select Hotel

What our travelers say

The Acropolis Select has earned a loyal following among Passports groups, and it's not hard to see why. Tour directors and group leaders return to this three-star property on Falirou Street again and again, consistently pointing to the same strengths: a breakfast spread that genuinely impresses, with fresh ingredients, a strong hot and cold selection, local specialties, and Greek yogurt that signals someone in the kitchen is paying attention. The staff draw praise across nearly every visit — described as friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful with group logistics. And the location, just outside the thickest of the tourist crowds but within easy walking distance of the Plaka and a short stroll from Metro Acropoli, means groups spend less time commuting and more time exploring. The rooftop restaurant is a recurring highlight. Several group leaders have noted that the seventh-floor views of the Parthenon — particularly after dark — have a real impact on travelers experiencing Athens for the first time. It's the kind of moment that doesn't require any setup; the city does the work. Rooms are described as modern, clean, and comfortably sized, with contemporary furnishings that feel a step above the typical three-star standard. One caveat worth noting for winter travel: bathroom temperatures in certain rooms can run cold during the colder months, so groups visiting between November and March should factor that in when setting expectations. This property is a strong fit for smaller school groups — one experienced group leader specifically noted it works best for parties of twelve or fewer, where the more intimate scale of the hotel feels right. It suits travelers who want to be close to Athens' historic core without being swallowed by it, and who appreciate a property where the staff clearly understand how group travel works. For repeat visitors, it has become a deliberate choice, not just a familiar one.

Ideally located close to the Acropolis and Plaka, Acropolis Select combines comfort and convenience for a great value base in Athens. The contemporary rooms at Acropolis Select are well-furnished with Italian design furniture. Each one offers plenty of space and modern bathrooms with bathtubs. Acropolis Select is just a short walk from the bars and restaurants in the lively Plaka district. The nearby metro station provides easy access to the rest of Athens.
