Dorian Inn Hotel

Good clean refurbished hotel. Reception staff nice. Rooms basic and nothing amazing, small bathroom. All rooms with balconies are on the front with twin beds. All doubles are on the back without a view or balcony. Good air conditioning. Good rooftop bar with an impresive view of the city. The pool and poolside area are mostly full of teenagers being rowdy, so not good for a relaxing sunbathe or dip - stick to the bar. Restaurant shuts before 10 - we arrived at 9:50 and had to insist on being fed as it says open till 10, and were served... more

This hotel has been refurbished and is OK - it's the area that is NOT OK. We were 3 women finishing our tour of Greece and chose this hotel because of its rooftop pool however our last day in Athens was only mid 20s and the pool is on the 12th floor and the water and the air way up there were too cold to get in but the view and bar facility there was gorgeous. The room was one of the biggest we'd experienced and the 3rd bed was a divan type of bed which was far better than a camp stretcher with 5cm foam mattress down close to the... more

I am a travel agent with 30 years of travel industry experience and I made the mistake of taking the recommendation of a tour operator and using this hotel for my group. I escorted the trip and nearly lost all credibility with my clients because this place is a dump! The lobby looks ok, but the rooms and the service are awful. The toilet seat in my bathroom didn't even fit the toilet - it was just laying loosely on the top, there was only a hand held shower and a tub, no shower curtain. Towels were thin and rough. The bed was without a... more

Omonia is a horrible area, lots of cheap stalls, beggers and sex shops. They say they have cleaned it up but it must have been really grim previously. The hotel public areas are fine and the breakfast was good for Greek standards. The rooftop bar commands great views of Athens and there is a rooftop pool which looked clean. The room was ok on first impressions, large with a tv and air con but it was full of mosquitos. We killed about 20 on arrival. There were also mosquitos in the lift and lobby area. For this reason alone I definitely... more

Unfortunately, this was a poor hotel choice for my wife and I. The website is a little misleading and the hotel or the rooms are not in the state as when the pictures were taken. It is close to trains, but in an undesirable area and walking to the hotel especially at night was one of the few times in my trip to Europe I was nervous. The AC was very noisy and did not work well, even after we moved to a different room and the rooms were not particularly clean looking. The roof top pool did not appear very clean so we did not use it however... more
