Arion Athens Hotel Review
The superb Arion Athens Hotel is situated right in the centre of Athens, only 0.9 km from a hot shopping spot such as Ermou Street-Shopping Area. Located 5 minutes by car from the ancient citadel "Acropolis", this Athens hotel offers 51 rooms with fabulous views of the city.
The family-friendly Arion offers a daily full English breakfast from 7:30 to 10:15. You can relish Greek cuisine at Oineas Restaurant located a 5-minute stroll away.
The 3-star modern property is near Psiri, which is an intriguing jumble of graffiti-ed cottages, antique shops, and ouzeris, around a 5-minute drive from the state park "National Garden", and not very far from the hilltop temple monument "Acropolis Museum". Places of worship to visit just 1.7 km from the elegant Arion include the vast Temple of Olympian Zeus.
Ancient Agora of Athens Ruins lies 0.7 km away, and a market and a shopping mall area near this business accommodation. Arion Athens Hotel also provides access to such sports attractions as the ancient-turned-modern Panathenaic Stadium, which is 2.9 km away.
