Piraeus, Dream Hotel Piraeus

Stayed at the Dream Hotel Piraeus again this spring when I was meeting a friend from the airport late at night and was pleased to find the hotel was still a good standard for the price (50') for a room with two single beds and breakfast included. Breakfast was even better now with lashings of bacon and scrambled eggs and reasonable quality fruit juice as most greek hotels dish up watery squash. They even had side dishes of Greek food such as dolmades which is a nice touch for a visitor. If you are catching a ferry or spending a few nights in Athens you cannot go far wrong at this price, if only the rest of Athens was as economical.

Dream Hotel Piraeus was perfect. The room was clean and comfortable, breakfast with fresh fruits and evrythng tasted great like homemade. The staff is a credit to this Hotel everybody was ready to help with full of usefull information about everything and ready to answer to our thousand of questions.

Great job!

If you have arrived at Athens airport in the middle of the night en-route to one of the islands, then the Dream Hotel is an excellent choice to get some sleep and breakfast before continuing your journey. It seems to be becoming quite popular and it is wise to book in advance. Staff are friendly, for a city centre hotel. The area it is located in was, until recently, a bit dodgy but is now being transformed completely, it has new pedestrian ways and good shops. Bedrooms and bathrooms are compact but more than adequate for a city centre hotel at this price. The breakfast room is bright and airy offering a simple but good breakfast. The first time we stayed for just the one night but this time we extended it to two so we could visit the centre of Athens, so we must have been happy with it!

If you are stuck for something to do at night, lie in bed and count the ceiling lights in your room, in fact the whole hotel has been lit by an electrician with flair!
