Read it your way

The Intercontinental Athenaeum Athens is a large 553-room property offering spacious accommodations and a rooftop terrace with views of the Acropolis. Guests appreciate the comfortable bedding, helpful service, and generous breakfast buffet. However, reviewers consistently complain about half-glass shower enclosures that let water spill over the bathroom floor, alongside steep on-site food prices and dated decor in older rooms. 814615

Location19 mentions · 4 filmed
  • it has a pretty good location it's pretty close to Parthenon 17-minute walk ereon 18-minute walk Acropolis 18-minute walk Temple of Olympian Zeus 18-minute walk and also close to attractions like Roman Agora 20-minute walk Temple of hesus 22-minute walk ancient Agora of Athens 22-minute walk Monas staki Square 23-minute walk On camera190:37
  • Overall I think Athens was decent, hotel overall was good, might not stay again due to cost and being so far from the airport 6
  • The location of the hotel is very convenient, with complimentary shuttles to the city center, allowing us to explore all areas easily. 9
  • Set on Syngrou Avenue, a five-minute drive or 16 minute walk to the Acropolis Museum, the InterContinental Athenaeum Athens is close enough to soak up the excitement of this city of 3.2 million but far enough to offer space and serenity. 15
  • The neighborhood around the hotel seemed run down. 9
  • The hotel is conveniently located near the metro and in the center of the tourist quarters. 9
  • The hotel is not within walking distance of any major sights -- it's about a 30-minute walk or a 10-minute drive to Syntagma Square -- and its surrounding neighborhood is a bit rundown. 18
  • while the location is off the tourist path for our two nights here before a cruise it was quiet and lovely getting taxis to PLA and other areas was no problem and the rooftop restaurant was a highlight of our trip On camera191:23
  • The neighbourhood itself has nothing much of interest 17
  • Athenaeum Intercontinental's pristine location near the Parthenon offers some very nice views if you are on its upper floors. 13
  • Note that the airport is quite a distance outside the city so it will take at least an hour by metro or car. It isn't a very nice part of Athens and nothing to see/do right around the hotel, so be prepared to travel a bit. 12
  • If you're in Athens to tour the historic sights, the hotel's location is a downside. You're within sight of the Acropolis, but it's a good walk at around 30 minutes from the hotel. 8
  • Location was a bit far from the central Athens area, requiring a 30-minute walk or 10-15 minute drive. 9
  • The location was superb, as it was within walking distance to all the must-see attractions in this city. 9
  • I've read some of the reviews onl and people are complaining about the location cuz it's not really close to the city center but it's not really a pain it takes about five Ral U to call wber to basically all of those attractions in a so it's quite convenient for me On camera79:11
  • Plus, the location is a bit of a pain if you're in Athens to see the historic sights. 8
  • For a stay that combines world-class amenities with a prime location, the Athenaeum Intercontinental is hard to beat. On camera102:00
  • I thought it was a great location for getting around, 20 mins or so walk to the tourist core. 6
  • I thought it was a great location for getting around, 20 mins or so walk to the tourist core. It is set a little outside of the bustle, which isn't bad and we never felt unsafe. 6
Food22 mentions · 2 filmed
  • When I went down, I was seated pretty quickly and never found the restaurant to be too crowded. It did though take some time to be acknowledged by the wait staff and be offered coffee. 20
  • It did though take some time to be acknowledged by the wait staff and be offered coffee. This did not end up making much difference. The coffee was pretty mediocre. 20
  • Club Access includes generous breakfast, lunch and evening canapes. We enjoyed the wide selection of fresh fruits, salads, cheeses, baklava, charcuterie as well as delicious hot dishes such as pasta, soups and mains. 15
  • The breakfast buffet was quite extensive, featuring waffles and French toast, several other hot items, and a rather good selection of fresh produce. There were also several cheeses and meats, and a good selection of cereal. 20
  • My other comments include the sad fact of the typical instant Nescafe as the in-room coffee. I get it. It's Europe. I should get coffee in a coffee shop. Let's just dispense with the in-room coffee completely rather than provide Nescafe, though. 8
  • getting taxis to PLA and other areas was no problem and the rooftop restaurant was a highlight of our trip On camera191:29
  • Keeping kosher, I did not eat much but found that the produce was fine. I asked some of my fellow guests what they thought and the consensus seemed to be the food was meh, and not as good as it looked. 20
  • In the morning, the InterContinental Athens serves breakfast at Cafezoe, the hotel's ground floor restaurant. The typical buffet price is an eye-watering €32. 8
  • This large, modern hotel features 553 spacious guest rooms (many with incredible acropolis views), a huge and bright atrium lobby with lobby lounge; breakfast cafe, modern spa, and an outdoor swimming pool with snack bar. 14
  • Excellent dining and breakfast buffet. Although you can walk from the InterContinental Athenaeum Athens to major attractions, Leof. Andrea Siggrou is a very busy road and not very scenic. 15
  • Quite an old property but well maintained. Breakfast is nice. 17
  • Lounge was nice with the view of the Acropolis. Food was nice and drinks were great. 17
  • Excellent dining and breakfast buffet. 15
  • The coffee was pretty mediocre. There was a nice buffet on the side of the dining room as well as a made-to-order egg statio 20
  • Amazing views of the Acropolis from the club lounge during breakfast. 9
  • However, the hotel doesn't quite have that luxury feel you expect from the brand, and the food is run of the mill. 8
  • A breakfast buffet is served in Cafe Zoe next to the pool (but inside). It was included with my reservation and I found it to be decent quality, though I mostly try to avoid buffets. They do have a made to order egg station. The fresh squeezed orange juice was a highlight. 12
  • I opted for the additional breakfast package morning meal is nothing to write home about nice buffet food not always hot nothing is cooked to order you have to hope one of the servers will see you in time to pour your coffee On camera191:45
  • Rooftop Première Restaurant serves French-influenced cuisine sourced from local ingredients, with excellent Acropolis views from inside and out. 14
  • The only minor issue I encountered was the outdoor dining area. the poolside snack bar was quite expensive for the quality and quantity of food that was served. 9
  • In terms of options, the InterContinental Athens offers a decent spread. You have green and Greek salad fixings, fruit, dried fruit, nuts, yogurt, rice pudding, cold cuts, pastries, donuts, sausages, bacon, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, potatoes, baked beans, grilled tomatoes, and cereal. 8
  • Breakfast this morning at Hotel Indigo downtown Los Angeles 10/10 17
Service26 mentions · 3 filmed
  • Athens Intercon is a favorite of ours. Two to three trips a year here, great service, great rooms (especially now with the updates), and nice quiet location. 5
  • The free internet was great, the breakfast was nice and the staff was really helpful with questions :) 3
  • The service is helpful and courteous, ensuring a pleasant stay. 9
  • The InterContinental Athenaeum Athens is a solid property and a comfortable place to stay in Athens. The rooms are nice. 20
  • The staff provided excellent service, and the breakfast was delicious with a wide variety of options. 9
  • In a nutshell: the InterContinental Athens offers friendly service, nice rooms, and a lovely top-floor terrace with views of the Acropolis. 8
  • The staff at Intercontinental were amazing, always friendly and ready to assist. 9
  • My main gripe is that on the first morning of my stay, I woke up to a housekeeping staff member walking into my room. They did not knock. A few days later, I was taking a quick shower before check out, and a housekeeping employee also just walked in without knocking. 20
  • "Largest hotel in central Athens with excellent business facilities and professional service" 9
  • Expect attention to detail and a warm and hospitable staff ready to cater to your needs. 2
  • The InterContinental Athens had no problem fielding a late check out request for a 2:00 PM departure. 8
  • The surrounding areas of the hotel were in my wife's words "filthy, but not unsafe... During the day" 6
  • Neo Kosmos is not the most vibrant hood by any means but most sites were walkable within 30 minutes and there is a trolley stop 2 mins away. We liked the pool too but the poolside service was atrocious. 6
  • My room wasn't ready when I arrived, but the front desk staff greeted me warmly and apologized profusely for the delay. 8
  • Service is consistently high standards. 13
  • The initial check-in process could be improved to avoid unnecessary waiting times. 9
  • I arrived at the hotel from the airport around 9pm. There was no line to get checked in. The front desk staff was very professional and explained the benefits as an IHG Platinum elite along with the benefits from The Edit. 12
  • Finally, on the last day, I had a late checkout and was prepping to head to the airport. After the normal checkout time but ahead of my late checkout, it felt like they were just chasing me out. Not the way to leave a great taste in this Diamond elite's mouth. 20
  • I stayed at this hotel for four nights front desk was impeccable room was lovely and partial view of acropolis was nice to see if you looked hard enough On camera191:36
  • Overall, my stay was nice. There are aspects of the hotel I liked, including the room (minus the bathroom that needs an overhaul), rooftop bar with views of the Acropolis, and friendly, helpful staff. 8
  • room surface was really great last night we went out to the top bar after we came back the team has already done the turn down service collected all the rubbish we created last night On camera78:19
  • As noted above, service at Cafezoe for breakfast wasn't the fastest despite the fact the dining room wasn't crowded, but the servers were friendly. 20
  • When we arrived at the InterContinental Athenaeum Athens, there were several bellmen up front and I was quickly assisted with my luggage. 20
  • I have IHG One Rewards Diamond Status but inside, there was no clearly marked elite check-in. That said, the line was not long and I was seen quickly. 20
  • The professional and friendly staff is always on hand to assist with any requests, ensuring your stay is hassle-free from the moment you arrive. On camera101:11
  • All of the staff I interacted with were friendly and helpful, though service was definitely the most proactive or personalized. But I wouldn't really expect proactive or personalized service from a massive 500+ room property operated by IHG. 20
Bed & Sleep4 mentions · 1 filmed
  • The bed was very comfortable, and I slept great for the single night. 8
  • overall it's really a comfortable stay and I had a very good sleep last night On camera711:30
  • The bedding was fairly comfortable and I slept well on it. 20
  • The bed is comfortable and has a true duvet cover rather than the sheet sandwich. 12
Bathroom12 mentions · 1 filmed
  • Agree that the doorless shower was weird. Especially in the master bathroom. It was a half size shower and I got water all over the floor night 1. lol. Didn't use it after that. 6
  • The bathroom had bathrobes hanging, and in a drawer in the closet just across, there were slippers, which is a nice touch. 20
  • Unfortunately, the bathtub/shower had only a half piece of glass sheet instead of a proper door, a hotel design trend I really hate. My preference is for floor-to-ceiling walls or sliding glass doors. 20
  • so you have a toilet we have a bidet and we have a walking shower bubble cup combo which I actually do not like On camera10:42
  • The bathroom is what really makes the room feel dated. It's in serious need of a remodel. It's very standard and not big at all. 8
  • The bath products are all Byredo branded and a bit too perfumed for me. Also the hand lotion had been swapped with the hair conditioner. Oops. 12
  • The tub-shower combo need the most help. The bottom of the tub curves, and there is very little flat space to stand. I also hate the half-screen things for showering. 8
  • Agree that the doorless shower was weird. Especially in the master bathroom. It was a half size shower and I got water all over the floor night 1. lol. Didn't use it after that. Just stuck to the main living room one. 6
  • The bathroom is clean and modern, with a bathtub and shower. 9
  • Agree that the doorless shower was weird. Especially in the master bathroom. It was a half size shower and I got water all over the floor night 1. lol. 6
  • I wasn't a fan of the shower with no door, I'm a clown and spray water everywhere and an added floor drain would be a good touch for all the water that gets everywhere, the rain showerhead and wand settings were fun to mess with and I was a fan of the green tile. 6
  • The shower is nice with both a rain shower and a hand held shower head. 12
Noise2 mentions
  • My biggest complaint about the room was that it was a connecting room and for whatever reason, whenever someone walked on the solid floor in the neighboring room, it amplified the sound of it into my room. I couldn't hear voices but anytime anyone walked it was strangely loud. A very good reason to ask for a non-connecting room. 12
  • Not surprisingly it was very quiet otherwise and I could sleep quite well. 16
Room29 mentions · 4 filmed
  • Toiletries were in fixed big pump bottles, locker room style. As seems to be standard for InterContinental, they were by Byredo. This is one of my favorite brands, so it was great to see that. 20
  • Rooms at the InterContinental Athens are very nicely appointed. There is a nice living area and an excellent desk. 8
  • There was a nice sitting area with a couch and coffee table, as well as a proper desk area. I have found that many hotels are cutting desks out of guest rooms in recent years so I definitely did appreciate the desk. 20
  • Outdoor Premiere restaurant/terrace was a highlight. Enjoyed the views of the city immensely. 8
  • The room also has a minibar, but it isn't stocked. 8
  • The blackout curtains on the window were fantastic, something I have found rare these days. 20
  • fantastic hotel with amazing view from our balcony of the parnon if booking Club rooms the bar area also had the same amazing view On camera191:06
  • I only ate there because I had the $100 credit. There is also a rooftop bar and restaurant called Premiere. It is currently being renovated but you can dine outside or get a drink on the terrace with amazing views of the Acropolis. 12
  • I was expecting a bit more for the beds, I would say it was a bit of a miss... I like to fall on the bed when I sit or lay down and I popped up a little.. slight exaggeration but it could have been tbe room that we had 6
  • Overall, the decor is classic modern. It's an understated Greek motif of deep sapphire blue and natural hues inspired by the Aegean Sea and ancient stones of the Acropolis. 15
  • I stayed at this hotel for four nights front desk was impeccable room was lovely and partial view of acropolis was nice to see if you looked hard enough On camera191:36
  • The Club InterContinental Lounge is on the 8th floor and has an outdoor terrace with views of the Acropolis and Athens skyline. Our suite (840) featured a luxurious washroom with a bathtub (regrettably becoming a thing of the past in many hotels). 15
  • The two-bedroom, 3,400 sq. ft. Presidential Suite offers separate living and dining areas, a large private terrace with great Acropolis views, and butler service by request. 14
  • With several other grandiose suite options, the hotel also has Superior Rooms, which are the plainest and most out-of-date. Only slightly smaller than Deluxe Rooms their decor is simple and garish, with bright green seating, rugs, and headboards. 18
  • We stayed at the Student Travellers Inn and it was fine. The double room was tiny and it got incredibly hot and stuffy in there, but we weren't there to spend time in the room! 3
  • The outdoor terrace offers prime views of the Acropolis, the sacred hill and the Parthenon. 15
  • Rooms are spacious though the classic furniture could use a lifting. 13
  • I felt the room wasn't exactly brand new - it did not feel old but neither did it feel modern and it came in an odd shape. However, it was spacious and there was a bit of a view (through the very dirty windows). 16
  • I didn't get pictures of the closet space at the front of the room, but there was a nice amount of storage space as well as a safe. 20
  • The Athenaeum InterContinental Athens is a 553-room luxury hotel, including 18 suites. Many of the rooms offer fantastic views of the Acropolis. 15
  • The decor is retro-modern and colorful: Shag rugs, white leather chairs, and modern art and sculptures -- such as the large, red running man by the entrance -- inject flair. 18
  • beautiful spotless and spacious room while the location is off the tourist path for our two nights here before a cruise it was quiet and lovely On camera191:20
  • book a room facing North to enjoy fabulous Acropolis view 9
  • So, in general, room: nice. Bathroom: sad. The view from my room was also sad. Overall: mixed bag. 8
  • For a hotel room built in the 80s, I was surprised by how spacious the room is. 12
  • the second thing I want to talk about is the Rooftop Bar the terce itself is not that fancy but we had a starling view of the Acropolis From the Terrace it was amazing I really love it On camera78:30
  • The upgrades of the room aren't spectacular but the rooms are clean, functional and the amenities work for me. 16
  • True to its name, the window had an uninteresting view of the city. 20
  • I have stayed at several InterContinental properties and the room felt like some of the others. The decor was nice and unoffensive. 20
Value8 mentions · 1 filmed
  • Food and beverages are pricey, but that's what you can expect at a 5-star hotel. It was a great value overall for one quick night in the Greek capital. 8
  • it's about €32 per person so it's a bit expensive but the the food was amazing really recommend On camera78:59
  • I ate lunch twice at Artbistro, located in the lobby. The prices were insane. A small bottle of Coke (smaller than a can) was €9 or over $10. 12
  • Offers good value for its spacious, modern and well appointed rooms. 15
  • Overpriced Cafe/Restaurant: The prices at the hotel's cafe/restaurant were quite steep, making it difficult to enjoy a meal without breaking the bank. 9
  • So all in all was it good?! Yes because it was free. A.k.a. points I travel for work. So would I have paid the price tag for it no. 17
  • Food and beverages are pricey, but that's what you can expect at a 5-star hotel. 8
  • Overall I think Athens was decent, hotel overall was good, might not stay again due to cost and being so far from the airport 6
