Best Western Pythagorion Hotel

Hotel is in a decent area to visit the main Athens attractions by walking. The rooms are pretty basic, but clean. Beds and pillows a bit too hard, but not bad. My room was near the elevator which was pretty noisy. There was no view from the window in my room, but soom rooms have better views than others I am told.

The hotel desk staff was very good however. Spoke English and quite helpful. The buffet breakfast was, much like the room, pretty basic. Not bad, not great.

If you need plug adapters for the electrical sockets, note they are the recessed type. Also, you will need to put your card into the little slot on the wall and leave it there for the electricity to come on. When you remove it, all the power turns off.

I thought this would be a reliable bet because it was Best Western, however, I was very wrong. I made a reservation over the phone through Best Western before I left but when I get there the price was arbitrarily increased without sufficient explanation. The people were NOT helpful at all, and pretty much ignored us in favour of Greek locals (although they spoke English fairly well). This hotel is also located in an undesirable part of the city. NOT RECOMMENDED!!
