We returned to Hotel Avra after 5 years. We appreciate the free, timely and convenient airport transportation to and from the hotel. The property is beautiful and recently remodeled. The rooms were super clean and comfortable. The breakfast was great! So many options! Being by the sea and having a view of the port is another asset. The staff was friendly and helpful especially those at the restaurant/bar. Thank you.

This was a great hotel but should note, Expedia says the superior triple sea side view sleeps 4 but it does not. On the hotel’s website it says three people, which is accurate.

This was a fantastic stay near the airport with great restaurants in the area. The airport shuttle was easy and the included breakfast was very nice. If you need a stay near the airport in Athens I would highly recommend the Avra hotel.

If you’re looking for a 5 star hotel for an extended stay, this is not it. But it is a clean, comfortable, convenient place to rest between flights or for a short amount of time. Lots of small amenities are included, like Q-tips and other hygiene necessities in case you don’t have your checked bags. Hotel staff is neutral, not rude, but certainly not friendly.

I stayed here because it was advertised as close to the airport with a free shuttle. It’s actually about half an hour drive from the airport so I wouldn’t consider this really an “airport” hotel. Nevertheless, overall it’s an OK property for an overnight stay if you don’t want to be in Athens itself. The breakfast had a good variety.

Basic hotel that meets the needs of a quick late night stay to head to airport next day for a flight. It takes around 30 minutes to get from airport , so not as close as I imagined it to be!

Nice and quiet

In the beginning, it was hassle confirming my free transportation. Their reservation was never reply to my request. I sent a text message the day before, finally they responded. It was easy to spot their van. Besides accommodating transportation issue, everything was good. Quiet and feels like you are countryside. First hotel offered toothbrush in EU. There always have shampoo but there is NO conditioner. You may need to take your own. Bed was comfortable, many restaurant and grocery stores were nearby, and small kiosk is right under the hotel. If you want to pick up some snacks or juice. We did not have time for breakfast. There is restaurant available in this property. If you want to visit other island with your rent a car, ferry is right in front of hotel.

Great Shuttle Service

Value for money was poor. The room was small without even a jug to make a cup of tea. The power goes off when you take the key card out so there is no hope of keeping anything cool in the fridge if you are planning to go out. The configuration of our room hadn't been passed on from Expedia so we had twin beds instead of a double. The shuttle service to the airport was great and the reason we booked here but for the price we paid we wouldn't recommend.

Excellent restaurant with a view. The service was friendly and efficient as well. Pick up at the airport did not work out as we were not able to locate the shuttle. Fortunately taxis are available. Transfer to the airport was excellent the next morning . Our room was very nice but small. Our one night there was very pleasant and would in particular recommend the restaurant.
