Hotel Ideal - Pireas Athens

4.6

The hotel is far from the nearest train station (15 min walking). It´s next to some pubs and discos open until 7 am, so the chance to rest quietly is almost impossible.

9.3

The room was basic, but very clean and quiet. The desk attendants were kind and courteous and spoke English very well. The only thing I was surprised with was an extra charge for using the phone in my room for local calls, but it did not add up to that much.

9.7

honest 2 star hotel within walking distance of cruise ships.Hotel reception extremly helpful,beds comfortable,aircon. good.Breakfast was not to our taste,many cafe's within 100m,with better choice. Arrived very early for night after cruise, & room ready by 9.30. recommend for pre & post cruise.

6.4

This hotel is located close to Pireas port, and as such is convenient for early morning ferry departures or late night arrivals. However, the directions from the port to the hotel as given on Venere is very misleading. The area is very dodgy at night and we walked down a few very badly lit streets to get to the hotel. We weren't the only people who got lost - the receptionist was on the phone explaining to someone else how to find the hotel when we got there. If you stay here - get a taxi to and from the port! It will probably be less than 5 euro and it's worth it! The room was clean and comfortable, but suitable for a short stay only, and as a base to catch a ferry, not to explore Athens.

8.2

Considering it is in Piraeus, reasonably quiet. Noise generated only because Greece were playing at Euro2008! For a one-night stop-over it is a good choice.

5.7

Price according to location. If you need find just place you can spend one night, before going to Pireaus port, it is place you need. If you are thinking about honeymoon, please forget :)

4.6

location is good, rhre're about 10 min. to the port area. good for a one night stay.

8.4

Good for my "one night stay"

4.9

The single room No. 24, 6. Floor lies to the road. Therefore completely ok.

7.3

A bit too far from the metro station and to the ferries going to most of the islands. Clean and new rooms and bathrooms. Nice staff. Ideal if you plan to get a boat the next day, not for a long stay.

7.4

Es un hotel que está bien, está limpio, no es demasiado caro, es perfecto para pasar la noche en el Pireo.

8.1

it's quite nice room though we spent some time to find it. It's near gate10.

6.5

very very far away from the trainstation and Port. There are sex shops near this hotel. Not recommended to family,and young girls.

7.2

We've chosen this hotel because it is located near the ferry terminals. We had to catch the ferry quite early and so the hotel was perfect to spend the night. +++ We paid 60 Euros for the night, which was ok (relation between price/quality). --- The description how to get to the hotel should be better

7.7

The room was clean, but it was quite difficult to find the hotel. For one night stay it was ok.

8.1

We found the Ideal real clean,confortable and in a strategic point if you have to take a ferry. We would come in Ideal again. Sara and Alessandro.

7.8

This was excellent value for the money and right next to the port, where we needed to be. Fantastic lobby and cheap beer, ideal for relaxation. A problem was that were ants in the room, but there were not enough to spoil our stay. Breakfast was not included either

6.8

Not in a very safe/friendly area, map directions were incredibly confusing, hotel staff was not helpful, and the port exit is more than a 15 minute walk which is not so great when you have luggage. However, the price was worth it.

6.5

Tehy allowed to use internet for free. The room was a bit noisy due to the A/C engines in of the neighbour rooms.

7.6

10 minutes walk from main boats to the islands, so very practical. We haven't had breakfast at the hotel. The room was tiny but well equiped, no view at all. Friendly check in, quick check out. To be recommanded on your way to the islands.

8.2

Good option for an overnight stay before taking a morning ferry to islands. Ca. 15 minutes walking distance from the ferries.

8.4

Pretty nice hotel. And it's easy to find really quite near to the port.

8.7

The map and instructions did not really clearly explain how to walk to the hotel very well and the area north of the hotel is undesireable for walking (no decent sidewalks and somewhat disreputable) so people should only walk to the hotel on the main road and turn up a street south of the hotel to avoid this part of Notara street.

6.9

Rooms are ok. Staffs are very helpful, and very welcoming. This hotel also provides free Internet connection in the lobby.

7.8

We have stayed here on two occasions. The first time there was no noise but the second there was repair work being done nearby. This only was a minor irritant. Although it is in Piraeus it is in a quiet backstreet with regard to traffic noise. The hotel was of a good standard for it's type but probably should onlybe used for no more than a 2 or 3 days as the rooms are on the small side. 10 minutes walking distance from port, and Metro. We will use again.

8.0

This hotel is kind of far away from everything. It is about a 10-15 minute walk from the metro and the port. Also, it is in a pretty seedy area. According to the front desk, the bars on the street were quite sketchy and frequented by prostitutes and their clients. That being said, the hotel itself was very nice: quiet, clean, spacious. Our room had a HUGE patio/balcony as well as air conditioning. Although the surroundings were less than desirable, we never felt uneasy about walking from the metro to the hotel at night. Overall we were satisfied with the hotel and its proximity to the port is great if you have an early ferry to catch like we did.

4.8

This is a very basic hotel at a basic price. It is close to the ferry terminal - which is good for those early morning ferry trips to the islands. The port neighbourhood seems a little dodgey. Not sure that I would stay there if I was a single female.

7.6

The room was small but very clean and the bathroom just renovated. The hotel has a woderful position fo who needs to travel to island from the port ( few minutes on foot) People working there nice and competent.

9.6

Excellent location for travel by taxi or walk ing depending on luggage to Piraeus port. Staff very helpful. Room & bathroom were spacious and clean. A pleasant stay.

7.7

L'hotel dista circa 20 minuti a piedi dalla fermata dell'x96 (proveniente dall'aereoporto) abbiamo dovuto prendere un taxi essendo con molto bagaglio. cmq l'hotel è molto tranquillo.

8.0

Staff very friendly and helpful Breakfast not included in price Good, clean, quiet hotel

8.4

Basic hotel, but new and of high standard. Arrived at 1.00 in the morning - no problem checking in. Excellent value for money. Breakfast was €6.00 extra. Map not accurate; entrance was in side street off Notare.

7.8

Nicely appointed hotel, in reasonably easy walking distance from ferry departure point.

8.4

I must say that the overall review is good. The employees were very helpful and gave some advice about how to visit the city and the possible problems that I might have arisen.... The city of Pireas isn't great in itself, but it's quite colorful. If I were to return to Athens I'd probably book a room again. The only drawback is that it takes about 40 mins by bus to go to center city....but at the same time, you get to see the real greeks :)

9.0

Great location even though it is on a side street -- easy access to both busiers areas of the city. Extremely helpful staff.
