Hotel Byron - Historic Plaka Location with Acropolis Views and Rooftop Garden

Located in the heart of Plaka district, this 2-star Athens hotel occupies a historic building on Byron Street, named after the famous poet Lord Byron who once resided 164.0 ft away at the Capuccino monastery. The 22-room Hotel Byron features air-conditioned accommodations equipped with flat-screen TVs, refrigerators, and free WiFi throughout. A breakfast service operates in the newly renovated rooftop garden, offering direct views of the Acropolis. The property includes a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage, and a snack bar/deli. Byron Hotel stands 328.1 ft from the Acropolis Museum entrance, 492.1 ft from the Acropolis itself, and 1148.3 ft from Makrygianni metro station. Nearby landmarks include the Temple of Olympian Zeus and Choragic Monument of Lysicrates, both within 984.3 ft.

Pros

Fixed-rate airport transfer service available (45 EUR daytime, 60 EUR nighttime)

Multiple room types including options with Acropolis views

Located on a quiet street in the historic Plaka neighborhood

Walking distance to eight restaurants within 984.3 ft

Cons

Basement rooms lack WiFi access

Some rooms accessible only by stairs

“In my opinion, this hotel's central location is its strongest asset, placing guests within easy reach of the Acropolis and the old city's inviting cafes. The rooftop views and breakfast also stand out as particularly valuable. For travelers prioritizing convenience and a good price, this property presents a worthwhile option.”
