What a beautiful small hotel with character, great staff, and a rooftop view of the Acropolis - the stairs with luggage are a workout, but this is Athens and one must climb hills

We stayed one night, they took care of our luggage while we explored the city. Good room, big, a little old, the bathroom needs to have some shelves / bigger counter to put your items or clothes. The bad thing is that there is no elevator so you need to go up the stairs carrying your luggage. Also, if you need any help finding something like transportation, there is no 24 hour front desk. Other than that it is in a great location, close to everything.

Great hotel in excellent location in Plaka
Great hotel in excellent location in Plaka near cathedral. Clean basic room perfectly adequate and great value with WiFi. Good cafe opposite. George was very welcoming and friendly and recommended a number of excellent restaurants, gave us a street map and looked after our bags after checkout. Would definitely return to Hotel Kimon

Loved the location… old town plaka and lovely square on your doorstep. The welcoming staff George and Mary are brilliant . Super friendly and great at recommending sights and local restaurants. Great value… no frills hotel. Large rooms and added bonus of a rooftop deck with views of the acropolis.

Check in was slightly confusing, we had to press a button to alert the staff to open the door to let us in, this did not cause any problems though. The room was nice and the bed was okay. The best thing about the hotel though is how close it is to everything! and i mean everything! it is such a convenient location to stay at when it comes to tourism. The roof top seating was also quite enjoyable for a midday lunch, thank you Kimon Hotel
