Bedbox Hostel

Probably the gold standard of Athens hostels. The staff (including the cleaners) were all very friendly. The beds and rooms are clean and comfortable. The toilets and showers were nice. Location is perfect. Price very reasonable. The cafe/bar in the lobby was insanely cheap. Can’t ask for more!

In city center. 1min to Varvakios(Central Market). From Athens Train station go by metro(Larissa) to Omonia station, from there is 15min to Hostel. Big spacious lobby, big kitchen, big pans, saucepans, utensils, two microwaves, two big fridges, small kitchen bar and induction cooker. WiFi great, clean kitchen, clean room, clean WC. From hostel the famous Acropolis is 25min, ticket 10€, with combined 30€ ticket you can see more sights. It has a lift. Great Staff, always smiling.

Wonderful, feels like home but better! To be honest, I’ve truly had the most wonderful time while staying at this hostel. Travelled around the world quite a lot, but this hostel is outstanding. The staff working here turn the place from pretty amazing into incredibly wonderful. Was welcomed so warmly by Maria and immediately felt like home. She’s the loveliest, the funniest as well, she just has something special. Also Ntina who’s there mostly in the morning is so sweet and helpful, and with Saeed who’s working night shifts we’ve had the most entertaining conversations when laughing our asses off. About hostel facilities: everything is very clean, showers are having great water pressure and are so nice and warm, lockers are huge and super convenient, beds have curtains for privacy, the kitchen’s got everything you need, there’s 24/7 reception so you’ll feel safe all time and the hostel is perfectly located in between food spots and sights, without disadvantages like noise, it’s super peaceful. The hostel is not a party place, but it’s extremely social. And btw, if you like karaoke, ask Saeed. If you like Jenga, ask Maria. Even though the hostel says it serves no “breakfast”, every morning in between about 8-11 AM they offer you free coffee, tea, biscuits and cake, which I think is lovely. Not a single bad word about his hostel, it’s just amazing. When I come back, and after this experience I definitely will, I will for sure stay here again! And if you wanna have the best Athens experience, I would like to advice you to do the same. :p

Perfect location, close to absolutely everything, very clean thanks to the impeccable work of two wonderful Brazilians, Edjane and the other one I don't remember her name. The girls at the reception were all super friendly and helpful. The hostel has an industrial style decor, the rooms are large, there are huge trunks to store your luggage that come with a padlock attached to the bed that the hostel provides free of charge, the beds are very comfortable, there is a dressing room with a mirror inside the room and a coat rack. The showers and toilets are close to the room and are always clean. The kitchen is not very large, but it is well equipped and very functional. The reception is cozy and has background music. I recommend this hostel to everyone who tells me they are going to Athens. It is close to the main tourist attractions and close to the subway, restaurants, supermarket, clubs and shopping.

Excellent location, big rooms correct for 6 people. Comfortable bed and has privacy with the curtains, also great that each bed has it's own light and socket. Excellent common areas and kitchen. Very clean toilets and showers. Free private lockers in the room which is very important. Sofia the Receptionist is excellent and very helpful and she is an asset to the place. I met also the 2 owners for some minutes and they were polite and open to listen any suggestion. In general for a hostel gets 9/10
