Hostel City Circus, Athens

Location, cleaning and staff 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Cozy, small and central. Nice place

Great location and friendly staff

Great location, walking distance to Monasteraki market and metro station, very central,

The hotel staff is very friendly. The hostel is clean, and the location is great.

the staff are very helpful and efficient

the steps leading to the elevator and inside the room

The public space is big and comfort, receptionists was helpful. The bath room in the room is pretty clean and have enough space. The location is pretty nice, next to a neighborhood full of bars, with walkable distance to the main tourist spots.

The only plug for electricity beside the bed is USB interface.

Clean convenient and helpful staff

I stayed here ten years ago and at that time the breakfast was buffet style served in the room near reception which encouraged chat and sharing the table. This time it was served downstairs in a restaurant. I stay in hostels because there is always someone to chat with. However changing the location for breakfast meant that it was too formal and there was no company sadly.

The property was clean, quiet, with a friendly staff! Location is easy to get to and in great spot to easily get to all the sights. Staff is helpful and friendly! Also the Acropolis is viewable from rooftop!! Great value!!

Everything was great!

Lovely, clean room with a private bathroom. The shared areas are also well-maintained and clean.

A great place for a solo traveller! Clean, big lockers and heaps of social events. Breakfast for 10€ was amazing and such a big portion!

The bed wasn’t very comfortable - it would be fabulous if the mattresses were replaced.

Great location, comfy bed with AC, nice shower rooms.

Very clean and tidy, easy to find, and a great location! Wish I’d booked longer

This hostel is really sweet! It has a great common area to sit and relax and the rooftop is nice too. The beds were really comfortable and the shower was fine. I appreciated that the bathrooms were only used by the room I was in.

The toilet could have been cleaner but that was the only thing!

Excellent location

The night view from the roof terrace to the Akropolis, enrobed in the smell of Mediterranean herbs from the little garden, was magnificent! The design of common spaces is beautiful. Staff were very friendly. The coffee and atmosphere next door amazing. The bathroom was clean and spacious and only shared between a few women (I was in a female dorm) which meant no shower waiting time.

good place!

Very nice and clean

Air conditioning was freezing sometimes

Price felt expensive for a bed in a six person dorm that was fairly snug, but the decor, cleanliness, location and service is excellent

Good location Close to all shops etc Spacious room Clean facilities Big common area Movie nights Roof top terrace

No wifi on rooftop Terrace AC too cold in room without being able to change temp

Second time here, best location, great staff, nice common area and clean. Appreciate the excellent aircon in the room. Quiet- no Athens street noise. Will stay again.

Time to upgrade beds to have privacy curtains, especially bc people come and go at all different hours, as it's the nature of a city like this. Bed by the door means hall light shines on you each time the door opens.

Great location, friendly staff, great price. You can’t go wrong.

Very helpful staff, good location, safe area, small balcony

nothing

Super friendly staff that's willing to help with any thing you need. Very close to restaurants and pubs. Clean bathroom and rooms. Big lockers.

Great restaurant , great location for Acropolis views and touring.

Location. Staff. Rooftop

Not much socializing

Great location, clean and comfortable, in a decent price.

Everything was good

I loved the building, the bed and all the service in general, they have all the facilities a traveler needs. Without doubts I will get a book again here.

The location is excellent, the staff is awesome, and the rooms were clean. The rooftop terrace was awesome at night

The area can feel sketchy at times, no parking or deals for parking.

Loved this place and decided to stay longer and bring my friends! The rooftop is very beautiful!

The interior is really nicely designed. Very clean in the communal areas. I met some amazing people while staying there. Comfortable beds. Daily cleaning service. Very nice and friendly people working at the reception. They will do their best to accommodate every need you may have. They also organise various activities during the week i.e. movie night with popcorn 🍿

I originally booked a 4 bed female dormitory room, but when l arrived it turned out there was no bottom bed available in that room. They told me if l wanted to have a bottom bed l would need to move to a 6 bed female dormitory room, which l did, but they refused to give me the difference back which on booking.com was 7 € between 4 bed and 6 bed dormitory rooms. The blond woman, who l assume was a manager, kept telling me they did not do any refunds. If they do not do any refunds, they could have offered me something else extra for that i.e. a free towel or a fee cocktail but instead she was just telling me right in my face "no refunds". This is not, in my opinion, amazing hospitality they claim they offer. There is no tea or any coffee in the communal kitchen. You need to get your own if you want to have a cup of tea or coffee. It would have been nice if there were some tea bags and coffee in the kitchen. Does not cost a lot but again hospitality. Due to the Central location it can get extremely noisy during the night. People partying right outside your bedroom windows which was pretty bed when l was there outside the high season. Cannot even imagine how noisy it is in the summer.

Highly recommend! the staff there was really helpful and friendly. The lobby and the terrace could offer you a cozy and calm public area. And the room is very clean, had staff come to clean every day. must go!!!

Comfy bed and decent shower, great location. Kitchen nice and clean. Extremely helpful and friendly.staff. Would return.

Nothing really.

Warm and welcoming staff who are very helpful and kind. Clean and comfortable facilities, very convenient location for exploring Athens.

A great hostel charming, with a lovely vibe for Christmas. Very clean, warm staff with front desk open 24h. Bed was very comfy. Well located, the street is quiet and it's convenient to wander in athens city center. Many restaurants and cafe by walking distance.

Nothing.

Nicely laid out hostel. New. Lots of space to relax. Close to the centre with lots of cafes around. Staff were helpful when around.

Wasn’t the most social.

Pretty darn good. Gourmet breakfast I wish I have around my neighborhood.

Location, staff and facilities.

Not much to not like.

The staff at this hostel were truly exceptional—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. The location couldn’t be better, situated in a prime spot that made exploring Athens incredibly convenient. The rooms were quiet and comfortable, offering a peaceful retreat after a long day. Lockers were spacious and secure, and the entire place was impeccably clean, creating a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere.

There was nothing I didn’t like; everything met or exceeded my expectations.

Amazing hostel! Super high vibes from all the staff, really well located right in the heart of of Athens and close walking distance to all main attractions. Clean room, heaps of restaurants and bars around I cannot praise the place enough. A special note to the staff at the reception for an amazing service and outstanding tips. Ivan is an absolute legend and I hope to come back one day. Cheers

This hostal is in the heart of where you want to be in Athens! I absolutely loved it, being so close to everything I wanted. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable, they really helped me! I thought this was the best value for money for sure! There is a rooftop area w a view of the Acropolis, I loved it up there, I thought that was truly a gem! Excellent place, I would definitely come stay here again!
