I was sent to an other hotel, the Hotel Lido. The ratings above apply to the Hotel Lido. It is 6-8 min walk from Omonia square. Its neighbourhood is shabby. The hotel is ok only for a short stay.

NOT FOR SOLO WOMEN OR FAMILIES OR GROUPS OF WOMEN. HOMELESS/DRUG USERS STRAIGHT ACROSS THE ROAD. DOING DRUGS IN FRONT OF EVERYONE. ALSO DID NOT STAY HERE AS THEY "UPGRADED" ME TO HOTEL LIDO...DOWNGRADE REALLY. NO TOILET SEAT🤬🤬🤬

Close to Omonia square and Metro. Walking distance to Acropolis etc very cheap

When I arrived, I went directly to the location provided in booking, and I found a brothel, the whole street was full of company girls, just when I arrived a taxi stopped right in front and started arguing in a very bad way with one of them. , my face was contorted, I didn't know what to do. Then it is true that they changed my stay. I had to arrive early at the hotel or be making video calls all the time when I was on the way to it, there are many people who give a bad vibe, it is not suitable for children, and they have to be careful with their bags because even if they are not violent, some they are too curious

It is quite central for the price it has

There was either overbooking or some kind of technical disability so I had to be moved to some other hotel called Lido Hotel. The area was kind of dirty, the room was heavily used with old installations, missing courtains in the shower. My clothes were stinking cigarettes smoke and I was washing them twice after I came back. I was offered a breakfast in another (already third) hotel: €6 for leftovers and the poorest quality products advertised as “Greek breakfast”. Much potential for improvement. People were helpful, so this was a big plus.

As for this price vs. quality it was cheap, also its close to the center. The staff was helpful.

I did not stay at the booked hotel. They changed me to Lido hotel of the same ownership. The room was mediocre. Some of the electric sockets were not functioning and there was mold on the wall of the bedroom. Also it was very noisy.

We had to move to Hotel Lido next to Orpheus Hotel, where we across by drug junkies in high amounts on the street. Initially we fell fear to walk, but next days we got used with this bad experience.

Price and air conditioner are skills that become interesting to stay in property.

It’s a very noisy neighbourhood

Location was good!

I think the hotel needs a bit of an upgrade. In general the facilities are rather old. The bed was a bit uncomfortable. The bathroom didn't have a shower curtain, so everything went wet when taking a shower. For a night is acceptable, but more than one night, I wouldn't stay to be honest.

The staff was really helpful. I had booked for a different hotel, which was unavailable, and they took us to another one, and allowed us to do early check-in. The neighborhood is not the best, but also close to the nice areas and within a walking distance to Acropolis. In general it was well located, but the neighborhood per se was rather ugly.

I actually caught a cold from staying at this hotel(HOTEL LIDO. Arrived at this hotel the front desk man said I have to take you to another hotel because we have a leak. He grabbed my luggage and began walking in vigorously in the streets 7 to 8 blocks. I had to follow him walking to another hotel, which was hotel Lido worst hotel I’ve ever been in my life. I got sick from staying at this hotel. , i ran a fever of 105 this hotel does NOT meet health requirements guidelines standards or regulations. Do not stay at this hotel. This hotel and Hotel Lido need to be closed down. This app only lets me put four photos, but I’ve got about 20 photos of broken tile steps mold on the walls mold on the floors open beams open walls. I can’t believe this hotel is even open. It really needs to be shut down.

Nothing there was drug addicts and homeless all over this hotel, they give you a sheet for a blanket and hand towel as your shower towel there is mold all over the walls and blowing from the AC unit and my room had screws sticking out of the wall over 2 inches !

See above comments

Despite my request on making the booking to make sure I had a room in that Hotel they used what appears to be on almost every occasion they moved me to another Hotel. I have had to rate all the facilities as poor as I could not use any of them How can they be allowed to Keep moving their guests surely booking.com should not accept bookings for this hotel as it appears the rooms are only available for clients who wish to book them for a half hour or hour and it appears they have a very high demand for that clientele from the number of young girls waiting outside and probably watched by their pimps. Suggest everyone avoids booking this Hotel as it is very unlikely you will actually have a room unless of course you only require it for a very short time and don’t intend to stay over night

As we approached the property in an Uber, there were a LOT of homeless and junkies actively shooting up drugs with needles in the middle of the street at 10:30am. It’s in a super rough looking area. We were then sent to another hotel as the water wasn’t working.

1. The hotel is close to the metro station, but the outside of the hotel environment is a little dangerous! 2. There are lifts in the hotel, it's convenient! 3. The light of the room isn't light for me.

I booked this room for my friend and pre-paid. My friend was turned out into the street because the hotel staff refused to let her check in after midnight saying that the dates on the reservation no longer matched. My friend had to walk the streets until morning. This is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable. I have never heard of a hotel denying check-in after midnight. I expect a full refund and a letter of apology from the hotel manager.

Firstly Orpheus Hotel was not available, they just sent me to another hotel, as I read other opnions it happnes a lot of time! The area is the worst that I ever seen in my life, in the surrounded street thereare hundreds of homeless people who are using drugs on the street, obviously most of them are mad and unpredictable, dangerous. They said it’s fine they are harmless but the first night I walked 100 meter!!! Alone they immadiately came after me to ask if I wanna have something, I said no but they were following me. Luckily the hotel was close. SO UNSAFE, SO DISGUSTING!! I would not recommend to anyone but especially not for families or children!

Nothing, literally nothing!! I just do not understand how booking let this place to be on it’s side!!!

Dont be here, thats not a hotel or hostel, thats is a point of drugs, prostitution. Booking should remove this hotel from his app. It's danger. DONT BE HERE!!!

I can’t stay at that hotel because they sent us to ‘sister hotel lindo ‘ when we reached there. There are a lot of homeless and prostitute around it. That hotel is not suitable for tourists.

There were prostitutes in the lobby and outside, drug addicts and junkies everywhere, pubes and body hair all through the sheets. They didn’t let us stay there they said we had to leave and stay somewhere else in the middle of the night and we had to go in an unmarked car with security because the streets were too dangerous to walk 400m away to another hotel. Room smelt disgusting and we both woke up sick. Bathroom smelt even worse we couldn’t use it at all.

The staff member at our second hotel was nice - the hotel we were not meant to stay in
