I should have been put off by this hotel 'cashing in' on the name of the most famous Philhellenic - then to find that although the flags of half a dozen countries were flying (well drooping) outside, there was no Union Flag. But it was worse than that. The room was dirty, the facilities minimal, and the staff either non-existent... More

I have stayed all over the world and if I have ever had a problem in at hotel it has normally fixed. If the problem was not able then an apology is acceptable. I don't normally complain because I am quite easy going and you know what, sometimes things go wrong. At the Byron hotel I experienced the worst customer... More

Tonight when we arrived in Athens at the Byron Hotel, we were exposed to extreme rudness and undescribable disrespect from the reception desk. Having walked in to our room, we discovered that we were not allocated with the double room we asked for. It did not fit the photograph which we saw on the website at all (it was a... More

For several years my husband and I have stayed at the Bryon Hotel, and it has always been delightful. Amalia works during the early ours, and such a delight, Dimitrias works the front desk during the day hours, and he is always so very helpful with directions, and with other needs. When our classmates came to Greece, we stayed at... More

Positives: Location is great, the hotel is clean & comfortable & the staff were friendly & helpful. The room was a decent size & plenty of hangers in the wardrobe, many more than I've had in some higher standard hotels! Negatives: Their website states a fridge in every room. I expected one of their lowest standard rooms as I had... More

I hate to be negative, but I had a terrible experience with the Hotel Byron in June 2012. Having booked through Booking.com we expected two nice double rooms with views of the Acropolis. Well, pokey is the English word for them, and yes, if you craned your neck, the Acropolis was visible.No balcony. My room smelt of damp. The bed... More

We stayed here for a couple of nights, the staff were friendly and helpful. This part of Athens, by the Acropolis is more my kind of place. Athens, the modern city and roads are noisy, polluted and hectic. At the 'old' part of Athens the pace of life is more relaxed, and closed pretty much to cars etc. This Hotel... More

stayed here a few times. clean simple rooms. perfect for that weekend or over night fun trip to plaka. big baseball fans in this hotel. next t some great resturants too.

Byron Hotel is a small property centrally located in Plaka historical district. The basic rooms are clean, well ventilated, and have comfortable beds. I had a room with a balcony with a patio chair and table, which was a nice feature to enjoy my tea and baklava whilst contemplating the surrounding views. All of ancient Athens is within walking distance... More
