Sofitel Athens Airport

Swimming pool under maintenance, water temperature for shower in room not stable Excellent location, opposite to the airport terminal, suitable for catching flight the other day early in the morning  Bit overpriced though.

excellent location, best for one night stay.

Perfect for a Short Stay Near the Airport The location is excellent if you have a short layover or need to stay near the airport. The rooms are comfortable, well-equipped, and offer the quality you expect from Sofitel. Despite being right next to the airport, the hotel is surprisingly quiet, ensuring a restful stay. Highly recommended for transit travelers!

Pay top dollar for convenience of an airport hotel. Useful only if you have early flight or ferry to catch

Had a few hours between connecting flights from Athens airport, so booking a night at the Sofitel was the best option to avoid non-hotel room surprises and miscommunication with apartment owners after a 14 hour flight. The distance from the terminal gates was literally across the street which was what I had hoped for. The cons: I came in with a 25Kg suitcase which was visually apparently heavy after a long flight and the hotel booked me the farthest room on my floor. Ok, no big deal. I’m young and strong. The first thing I wanted to do was just lie down on the bed to unwind after a long flight. I pulled up the tucked blanket to find that the bed sheets were stained near the pillows. Not something I would expect from a luxury hotel. Now I’m thinking if the sheets were even clean and what was the nature of the stains. Being extremely tired, I let it go and slept far from the stains. Went to take a shower. Two minutes in, I noticed the water not draining and water level rising. Had to shorten my shower time and abort with soapy feet to let the water drain before flooding the shower. Exited the room in the morning for my flight and noticed that the door was actually not locked while I was sleeping because the latch was stuck in the door. I feel that I would have just left the hotel a note on the shower and door and not write this review but the stained bed cover is unacceptable for the price I paid.

This hotel was so comfortable and convenient to the airport. If you’re looking for an airport hotel don’t hesitate. The beds were sooo comfortable and the hotel offers several dining options. A little pricey but it was worth it. Breezed to the airport the next day with zero stress.
