Customer Reviews
Overall, I had a pleasant stay, and I would like to commend several aspects of the hotel: 1. **Cleanliness**: The room and common areas were impeccably clean, which made for a comfortable environment. Every detail of the decor is beautiful! 2. **Staff Hospitality**: The staff members were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. Their willingness to assist with any requests made my stay even more enjoyable. 3. **Location** We love the location of the Athenian. During our stay we were able to enjoy walking a short distance to several restaurants downtown, enjoy a beautiful porch and yard for pre game cocktails, and meet new people from several different states.
A delightful overnight and we could not want for more because everything is just how we like it. The rooms blend historic preservation with modern conveniences.There is nothing spared to make every room in the house attractive in its own way. The attention to detail is remarkable. Interior design is compelling. Keyless entry let us come and go as we please. Snacks and beverages abundant and high quality. Restaurants, our new favorite a block away, serve fabulous food with flair and robust service. The price is right. We will be back!
I will admit, prior to our arrival, I was skeptical of our stay at The Athenian, but I was so pleased with our stay and experience. The rooms are gorgeous and well appointed with amenities. Lauren, the owner, even has a clothes steamer in the room, which not many hotels offer steamers, so I was thrilled. We stayed in Hera, and it was so comfortable and lovely. The common areas are so beautiful and comfortable. Lauren has it well stocked with snacks and all kinds of beverages. I am a bit of a wine snob, and her wine selection was excellent. I loved our stay there, and we hope to return soon!
My husband surprised me with a stay at the Athenian recently, and it was an exceptional surprise. This is one of my favorite hotel stays of all time. Every detail was wonderful — the hotel is itself is beautiful, with a fully stocked library (complete with drinks, snacks, comfy seats, and cozy vibes) and uniquely designed guest rooms. The bed is the most comfortable hotel bed I've ever slept on. Bathroom amenities were top tier. And the location was great for us — easy walking distance to campus, 40 Watt, downtown Athens. Such a great stay. We will definitely be back!
Everything about this place is magical. Each room beautifully decorated, gorgeous common spaces to hang out and easy walking distance to everything downtown. The location is absolutely amazing! We recently stayed on a moms getaway (6 of us) and each had our own private rooms which was awesome. I highly recommend staying here on your own but a group stay was equally fun! Will definitely stay here exclusively when I need a room in Athens
