Located in Exarchia, a bohemian neighborhood famous for
its history as a stronghold for Greek anarchists, the Best Western Museum Hotel is a
mid-range chain property that offers a cozy lobby bar and a tasty
breakfast buffet. The neighborhood might not be for everyone, but some may appreciate the location’s distance from the throngs of tourists.The 93 rooms have basic decor typical to chain hotels, but come with mini-fridges and free Wi-Fi. Young guests looking for an inexpensive option closer to the touristy areas may want to look into Athens Studios, a hotel with a youth-hostel vibe and apartment-style rooms with kitchens.

served in a plain room with wooden tables decorated with yellow and white daisies in
glass vases. A cozy bar area has round wooden tables with maroon and blue
suede club chairs and a bookshelf with books for guests to read. On top of the bar is a large glass dispenser full of orange
juice that's available to guests for free throughout the day.
