“Really gone down hill!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

We always stay here because it is such a great location and they are pet friendly. This will probably be our last time here. The staff was very pleasant. We went to check in at 3pm and the room was not available yet. Requested a ground floor non smoking room. Was told the 2nd floor smoking room was our only option. There were only 2 cars in the parking lot in our section of the hotel. Room seemed dirty. Very old furnishings and old box tv. Bathroom was tiny and smelled mildewy. Pool area was in disarray.

“Great location & pleasant stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

There is nothing overly wonderful about the Holiday Inn, but sometimes you just want a room that gives you no complaints. That is pretty much what the Holiday Inn in Athens does for you. We found nothing worthy of complaint with our room - the beds were clean and comfortable, the bathroom was up to snuff, and everything there was in line with your typical $100/night stay. The location of the hotel is great, offering walking distance access to more to do than anyone wants to imagaine.

“Holiday Inn is now our top choice for our trips to Athens”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

We've stayed at the Hilton, and Hampton Inn in Athens. This is by far the best yet. The locations is perfect, the rooms immaculate, the staff....so pleasant and helpful. Had breakfast in the restaurant on location. We were more than pleased. Holiday Inn Athens - University Area will be our first choice for future trips to Athens.

“The location of this Hotel is best for new comers to Athens”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 January 2012

The hotel is at Athens best location. University campus is too good to take refreshing walk in evening. Being fond of Indian food, I loved The Indian Restaurant which just in front of the Hotel. you can find a nice crowd in evenings till night nearby.
