The upscale Sofitel Athens Airport is the only hotel located in the Athens International Airport, making airport convenience the hotel’s biggest perk. The property is massive with 345 rooms with a wood-heavy design that could use a little love in the next few years; non-smoking rooms have reports of stale smoke smells. Design aside, minibars and kettles in rooms are appreciated. There are two dining options that includes an extensive and well-liked breakfast, but it's expensive. A gym and indoor pool keep guests entertained between flights, especially important as it’s at least a 40-minute drive to the popular attractions of Athens. For those who want to stay a bit closer to Athens' city center, Divani Caravel House has similar amenities and is a 10-minute walk from a metro, making it easy to get to and from the airport.
