The Athens Atrium Hotel and Suites is an upper-mid-range property with 56 modern rooms in the quiet area of Syngrou Avenue, down
the road from the historic Agios Sostis church. The hotel serves a breakfast
buffet in a smart space and also has a formal restaurant, business center, and four
conference rooms, thus catering to both company travelers and those looking to
relax. Guest units are basic in design, with gray decor and neutral wood
floors as well as bathrooms that, in some cases, have whirlpool tubs. Kids under the age of six stay free.

Scene
Nothing out of the ordinary, but a calm and relaxed ambiance
The unassuming lobby has retained its original classic molding on
off-white walls, high ceilings, and a few contemporary features like a frosted
glass plate with the property’s name. A second-floor gallery houses modern wall art. Otherwise
the common space is fairly simple and reminiscent of a residential building’s
foyer. The
hallways have a similarly generic, apartment-like feel. The hotel’s owners are
quick to suggest items of interest as well as dining spots, making for a
welcoming atmosphere. Guests range from single travelers to middle-aged couples
to families.
Location
In Syngrou, with transportation options to major sights
The Athens Atrium is located a bit more
than two miles southwest of the Acropolis in the quiet Syngrou area. There are quite a few strip clubs in the area, but the neighborhood is innocuous enough
and generally safe, with a nearby street that presents dining options. Both
the Agios Sostis bus stop and Aegeou tram stop are within walking distance of
the property. The nearest metro station is Syngrou-Fix, around a 20-minute walk
or a five-minute taxi ride away. And for those who seek sand and sea, the
beautiful Astir Beach is 25 minutes south by car. Piraeus Port is a 15-minute drive west from the
hotel while Athens International Airport is 35 minutes southeast.
Rooms
Comfortable and calm environments, but plain and devoid of interesting decor
Guest units here are simple, spacious, and
airy due to the tall ceilings, and beds are made up with quality bedding and orthopedic mattresses. Rooms
feature lacquer or laminate furniture and are painted in muted colors with
little to catch the eye. Superior Rooms come with a choice of king-size or
twin beds along with separate sitting areas with comfortable chairs and
balconies. Executive Jacuzzi Rooms offer marbled bathrooms with toiletries and
whirlpool baths as well as hydro-massage showers, bathrobes, and slippers. All
rooms have air-conditioning, central heating, flat-screen TVs, tea and
coffee facilities, and free Wi-Fi. Other perks include stocked minibars, plenty
of outlets, and reading lights by the beds.
Features
With lots of meeting space and a ballroom for weddings, the hotel lacks a spa and swimming pool.
In addition to the free breakfast buffet, on-site eating options at the
hotel include Brasserie Snack-Bar and the Atrium Restaurant, with the latter
focusing on formal dining. Four well-equipped, soundproofed conference rooms
are available for meetings, seminars, and social events. The Atrium Ball
Room is a suitable choice for parties and weddings with room for 200 people.
Additional amenities include an on-site TV room, cinema facilities, and an
impressive, bright Internet room with six computers, along with free Wi-Fi. Underground parking is free while
airport transfers can be arranged for a fee.
