O&B Athens Boutique Hotel

I stayed at O&B Athens Boutique Hotel in July and had several issues. The door fell off its rail, making it impossible to close and letting in all the noise from the busy street. The room also had no sockets near the bed, so I had to charge my devices from the opposite side of the room. Given the price of £100, the room didn’t feel worth it. The staff was polite and initially reached out by phone to apologize, offering a full refund (which I declined). They also offered a 3-night stay in their suite as compensation, which I appreciated at the time. However, four months later, when I tried to book my promised stay for December, my emails went unanswered. Despite seeing rooms available online, I received no response. The hotel went from offering apologies and compensation to completely ignoring my requests. Guests deserve honesty and reliability, not false promises. Based on my experience, I’d advise potential guests to look elsewhere. It’s not worth the money, and the hotel has shown little regard for following through on its commitments.

Spent 3 nights here in November. Friendly attentive staff and good breakfast to start the day. The rooms are ok with a little wear and tear but nothing major. Hotel is in a great location, a short walk from all main attractions and tourist areas. Good priced hotel for location and would stay again if in Athens

Fabulous weekend in Athens, we were upgraded to Acropolis petit view suite on arrival, the view was amazing, and we enjoyed a great breakfast|The hotel was a great find! just on the edge of the Psyri neighborhood, which was lively and vibrant, convenient and felt safe, close to many historical sites ie Ancient agora of Athens, National garden, Hadrians library, Tower of winds, Syntagma Square for changing of the guards and many more all within easy access.|Joined a walking tour which was very informative and enjoyable, had lunch with some new fellow travellers and then on to the acropolis museum

We booked this hotel as part of a BA holiday and was slightly concerned given some of the reviews we had read on the noise and smell. Our room included continental breakfast, which had everything you needed and included a few hot items that changed slightly on a daily basis. On one night we did experience noise due to work taking place on a nearby street (can’t blame the hotel for that) you are in the city centre so some noise is to be expected other nights out of the five were fine.

Perfect location to walk to the Acropolis as well as other amazing restaurants and shops! Little Kook is just a block away and is a must do!! Staff was very pleasant, rooms were spacious and clean, morning breakfast was fantastic! Would definitely stay here again the next time we are in Athens!

Really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Friendly, relaxed staff, best hotel breakfast I’ve ever had, and the room was quite nice. Also the location is within walking distance to the Acropolis, the flea market, parliament, and many wonderful restaurants. The general area felt safe and was tourist friendly Would highly recommend this hotel.

I wish I left this review earlier, as we stayed in May 2023, not October 2023. We only stayed one night, but I can’t imagine staying anywhere else for a convenient short stay, right way to the most central part of site-seeing Athens, restaurants, and bars. ||As I’m sure a lot of people do, we were staying overnight on the way back from island travel, before going to the airport the next day. While Americans not from big cities may not be used to urban neighborhoods like O&B, we are, and know to not wander around and stay where the busy night life and tourists are — and we had a great time, even if just one evening!||The location is great especially for friends, younger couples, or solo travel, as long as you know to stick to the busy areas. I’m not sure this hotel is the best choice for kids compared to others in the area (?), but it does have a restaurant, and so could be a good choice for families if needed! ||The staff at O&B were truly wonderful and so helpful explaining the area, and the Parthenon/ Acropolis view is right within a few minutes’ walk — and again, amidst countless restaurants and bars and shops. The room was incredibly clean, the staff went above and beyond to help us get our car the next morning, and the rate was incredible considering all the above. ||Thank you to the entire O&B staff! I hope we can spend more time in Athens some day!l

This is an OK and fairly modern boutique hotel.|Strong points are the location, breakfast and the comfy bed. The breakfast staff were also lovely and always remembered our drink choices, which was a nice touch.|Points for improvement are the white towels are old, grey and tatty. We were there for 8 nights. On day 4, 2 of the 4 pillows were taken away for no apparent reason and never to be seen again. The replacement of shower gel was hit and miss. One day, the bathroom bin was not emptied, which is not great in a country where you don't flush the loo roll. Another day, the AC in half the hotel stopped working and all we were told was that an engineer would come the next morning, which he did, however, we had an uncomfortable night as it was so hot. The reception lent us a huge fan which helped, but it was quite noisy. I feel the manager, who we did speak with, could have dealt with this much better.|Would I go back, yes, for all the reason first mentioned, but I do hope they will improve based on feedback.
