Dioskouros Hostel Reviews

Great little hostel in a fantastic location. Close to everything you could want by foot. Clean, straightforward, towels provided, nice breakfast every morning with good variety and fresh stuff. Friendly staff. Rooms are barebones, of course, but it's a hostel. I'd stay there again!

This hotel is in a prime location, close to major attractions. The rooms are spacious and bright, decorated in a strong Mediterranean style, with complete facilities and very comfortable. The staff is enthusiastic and professional, the service is thoughtful, and I felt at home during my stay. It was a very satisfying accommodation experience and I highly recommend it to friends who come to Greece for tourism.

It was a shame that the shower room was small, but the shared terrace was lovely and decorated with flowers and plants, which was very relaxing.

Although it is central, it is located in a quiet alley. It was a dormitory with 3 beds in one room, so there was plenty of space and the breakfast was satisfactory.

ロケーションは主要地にあり、観光も徒歩で楽しむことができました。バックパッカー用なので必要最低限のものが揃っていてちょうどい。

We stayed at Dioskouros on our last night in Athens. The host, George, was kind enough to arrange a taxi for us for our early 4:30am departure from Plaka to the airport. The room was comfortable, and had all the amenities you'd expect at a hostel. The outdoor lounge area was roomy, with indoor and outdoor seating, and the communal kitchen was well stocked. This Hostel in Plaka is close to many sites, including restaurants, shops, etc. My only complaint is that it has been difficult to contact them by phone for some items that were left behind. I could not find an email address directly for them, and there has been no response from them on social media messages I've sent. However, If I'm in Athens again, I'd definitely consider staying with them again. (Maybe I can reclaim my items!!)

-Great location in Plaka, near restaurants, sights and metro -Charming building with a cute garden/outdoor area. -I stayed for one night in a female dormitory room. It was very basic but clean. The bed was ok considering I only slept there for 6 hours. -Bathroom area was good -Very quiet, although the main street is very close -Felt safe although I shared the room and bathroom with strangers -Didn't have breakfast because I had to leave early but the breakfast area looked nice. All in all it was decent for the money I paid for (25 euro).

We arrived late at night. The hostel sent us an email with easy instructions on how to get into the building. The breakfast was basic but sufficient. The location is great and our room was clean and modern.

George is rude liar. The pictures are staged. The room with a bathroom has a window that allows someone in the storage room to look at you while in the shower. False advertising. Do not support this business. And *********** did nothing about making us take a different room that was nothing like what we booked. Horrible.

Excellent hostel right by Acropolis easy to explore all the ancient sites on foot. Close to good places to eat. Rooms clean and comfortable and well laid out. Good mattress. Wifi good. Showers good. All recently refurbished and nicely done. Breakfast includes fresh coffee fresh oranges, Greek yoghurt and pastries. Staff extremely helpful and easy to contact. Would stay there again and recommend. Thank you George and David for such a comfortable and welcoming stay.

Very very average, bordering on mediocre. Room in the basement, for 3 people, with a bunk bed that makes a thunderous noise when you lie down, and without a protective barrier, a chair for 3, and a dirty cup with cigarette butt for 3. Little No room to store your belongings, we stayed 4 nights, no room cleaning, worn towels. A more than average breakfast, very little choice, no microwave to heat your milk, and croissant in an inedible bag. Some advantages: its location, its very quiet interior courtyard, and friendly staff.

Scam: not practical and safe side of a hostel. Same doors always open no light above my bed, no soap in the room and no duvet on the first day or trash cans. Upper bed with rusty ladder (large). No lockers or cupboards for belongings in the room. Finally I chose a room on the ground floor, I don't know if it's because I'm black but they put me on the top floor.

Αρχικά δεν καταλάβαμε ότι ήταν hostel. Δεύτερον τηλεφωνούσαμε πάνω από 3 ώρες και δεν μας απάντησε ποτέ κανείς. Για κάποιον έλεγχο να δούμε αν έχει πάρκινγκ και ακριβώς να αποφύγουμε να μείνουμε σε hostel. Αρχικά η όλη διαδικασία μοιάζει με ξενοδοχείο φάντασμα. Το δωμάτιο βέβαια αρκετά καλό για αυτό που είναι. Το κακό όμως της υπόθεσης είναι ότι όταν Πήγα να φέρω το αυτονόητο η ρεσεψιόνιστ ήταν αγενής και έλεγε στην γυναίκα μου πότε θα φύγει παρόλο που η ώρα να φύγουμε ήταν 11 και ενώ έβλεπε και δύο παιδιά ένα 4 σχεδόν και ένα 6 μηνών ήταν αγενής και της έκανε την χάρη να την στείλει σε ένα μέρος για να καθίσει λίγο μέχρι να έρθει το αυτοκίνητο. Ήθελα να καλέσω την αστυνομία όταν μου το είπε η γυναίκα μου απλά δεν δώσαμε έξτρα έκθεση στο θεμα. Προσωπικά δεν θα πήγαινα ποτέ ξανά και χθες σκεφτόμασταν μέχρι τελευταία στιγμή να αλλάζαμε μέρος απλά αφού είχαμε πληρώσει ήταν κρίμα να χάσουμε 68 ευρώ και με τα χίλια ζόρια πήγαμε. Απαράδεκτο όπως είπα ποιο πάνω καμία τηλεφωνική απάντηση παρά μόνο μηνύματα στο booking. Στα καλά του ότι είναι δίπλα στην πλάκα

Lejos el peor alojamiento que alguien podría elegir! El servicio que ofrecen es nefasto, no atienden el teléfono, no responden mensajes, después no se hacen cargo. Si viajan a Atenas, gástense un poquito más y váyanse a un lugar que valga la pena.
