The three-star Achilleas provides mid-range beds in a comfortable, beyond adequate setting, just a short distance from Plaka's heavy action.

The Achilleas's 34 comfortable rooms are more business class than basic, with no stylistic thrills. Furnishings are angular and ordered. Desks, televisions, beds, and mirror placement all correspond to a primly organized vision of how hotel rooms should look. In-room air conditioning is strong and effective, and bathrooms are fully renovated.

The Achilleas sports a splashed-out lobby with checkerboard marble floors, a small television corner lounge, and cute curios such as an antique typewriter (plus a more functional, modern PC with Internet access).

Families, middle-aged guests, and seniors are the most typical guests at Achilleas. The clientele base also includes lots of groups and big numbers of Australians and Americans. The hotel is part of a small Athenian hotel chain that also includes Hotel Arion, Hotel Hermes, and Hotel Plaka.

Breakfast is included. In addition to a free lobby Internet station, Wi-Fi is free.

Location: Very central

Plaka is the heart of tourist Athens. Its dense, atmospheric alleys are packed with tavernas, tourist traps and gorgeous ancient structures. Adrianou is the main strip, but the highly touristed nature of Plaka permeates most corners of the neighborhood. Those committed to hunting around, however, will find a comfortable few blocks of stylish cafés, specialty shops and government buildings. Plaka is closest to the Syntagma metro station, which is located beneath Syntagma Square.
