The staff was amazing here.... especially Constantina and Nykos! The room was nice and they have a lovely rooftop bar! The hotel was super convenient to everything we wanted to see and the hotel even arranged transportation for us from the airport and to the ferry. I highly recommend this hotel!
Staff was very helpful. Everything a short walk away.

The area at first looked a little sketchy but it was actually very safe and lively and we could walk everywhere. Our room had an amazing full view of the acropolis as does the rooftop. Very friendly staff. Breakfast is in a very nice restaurant down the street
PLAY Theatrou Athens is fantastic. Rooms are very clean, comfortable, and well appointed. The rooftop bar has a spectacular view! I loved being able to easily reach hotel staff through WhatsApp. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. The neighborhood around the hotel is diverse and vibrant, convenient to all popular Athens attractions. It is also well situated for exploration of off the beaten path sights. When I return to Athens, I definitely will stay at PLAY Theatrou again.
The staff at the hotel are amazing! Very helpful and very kind. Nothing is too much effort.
The rooms and hotel itself are spotless!
We had a free upgrade, which was very appreciated on arrival. The hotel is above a really popular local restaurant. It's within easy walking distance of two metro stations.
We're very happy we booked the hotel and would stay again.
The hotel was great, staff at front desk were amazing and friendly. Night time on foot in the area was a little scary but once inside all safe and cozy. I’m sure that will change since the neighborhood is under remodeling I hear. We would stay again. Again the people at front desk top tier. I would hire them for my hotel if I could.
The roo. Was very clean a d modern with a large window that opened. Lobby was quite nicely dedorated and the rooftop patio view of the acropolis was a highlight. I dont think i would stay in this exact area area as it was quite gritty but nicer more manicured areas were nearby. Hotel was great, area less so.
Booked based on price and location near Acropolis. Staff arranged transfer from airport, provided excellent advice on area attractions and dining. View from balcony was great, from rooftop bar unbeatable.Room was very clean and comfortable.
The service we received at the hotel is amazing. Nothing to say about that or the cleanliness. They are quick to answer and help if needed. The only bemol would be that the insulation is not great so you hear a lot of the outside noises. You should definitely take the time to visit the hotel rooftop. The view of the Acropolis is impressive!
The room was very nice, spacious, clean and overall great value for what I paid. Check in was smooth. One highlight was the restaurant just outside the hotel serving delicious, authentic Greek food. While the immediate area around the hotel feels a bit gritty, you are just a 5 minute walk from several nice spots and major attractions, which makes the location very convenient overall.
