Feedback about Okupa from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise this hotel's modern design and convenient location, just a short walk from attractions like the Acropolis and Monastiraki. The rooftop pool offers a fantastic view and relaxation, while the breakfast buffet provides tasty choices, including vegan options. Rooms often include a projector for movie nights, adding a unique touch; however, some guests have noted that the music in the lobby can be a bit loud in the evenings. With comfortable beds, private curtains in dorms, and even a library, many find it to be a great value.

Charming stay with rooftop pool!

comfy mattresses great curtains common kitchen cocktail creations
The dorm room was very fancy. I saw clean spaces and comfy mattresses. Nice curtains offer a feeling of privacy. The common kitchen was useful for everyone. The rooftop pool showed views all over the city and the acropolis. The downstairs bar had very nice cocktail creations.
The common areas felt more for the restaurant rather than hotel guests. Loud music played at the lobby in evenings. The rooms looked great but lacked practicality, and the toilet could be more user-friendly.

The bar offers inventive cocktails. The cuisine served has various options, and the coffee tasted amazing in the morning. The restaurant provided a pleasant environment, where I could enjoy a delicious meal.

The room was not ready upon arrival. i waited outside for half an hour while the cleaning lady finished. A free drink would have been a nice gesture. i also could not get the tv to work, it was rocket science.
