Very enjoyable. Exceeded expectations.

Really friendly, helpful , polite and professional staff. They really seemed to care. Maxwell gave us a great Welcome and has clearly put a great team together. Alain’s and Alan were incredibly helpful answering all my many buried questions with a keen interest When we had an issue with noise from across the corridor, Alayna moved us to a really quiet room without hesitation

A Delightful Stay in Athens at the Holiday Inn

Our stay in Athens was made even better by choosing the Holiday Inn. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the front desk team, and throughout our stay, the manager thoughtfully checked in with us to ensure everything was going well—a gesture that truly stood out. The rooms are exceptionally well-designed. The beds were absolutely dreamy, and we appreciated the choice of pillows tailored to different preferences. Storage was more than ample, which meant no clutter or tripping over open suitcases—a real plus! Everything was spotless and clearly well maintained. We also made use of the gym, which offered everything needed for a solid, basic workout. When booking, we had requested a room at the back of the hotel, and we were pleased with the peaceful, green outlook. The area was wonderfully quiet, with minimal road noise. We stayed in room 530. All in all, it was a genuinely pleasant experience. We’d gladly stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Athens looking for comfort, convenience, and attentive service.
