Minutes from the terminal, Beautiful large room, great bathroom, very quiet, Food service however typically expensive in a 5 star hotel. A great spot to relax after or before a long flight and easy to have a day in Athens town if staying for a couple of days

Beautiful hotel....very clean and well organized. Our room was very nice and comfortable. The front desk assistants were friendly and very helpful. We had dinner in the restaurant which was very good. The housekeep staff were/are wonderful providing extra coffee for us. The airport is a short walk across the drop off lane of traffic. Very convenient!

I stayed one night there in a junior suite and the room was fantastic. Very nice outline, excellent arrangements in the room and extremely good noise isolation (you don't hear any noise from the planes). The staff is helpful in general, the common areas are well designed, the breakfast offers very good quality and variety of items. There are three issues that make me say this is an average hotel and not a very good one and here they are: 1. In the breakfast area the staff was speaking to each other so loud that everyone could hear them. And to make things worse the staff was talking negatively about a specific couple of guests probably not realizing that we could understand them speaking in Greek. And their comments were not polite and were even discriminatory (the 2 staff were talking negatively about a guy couple). My wife mentioned this to the restaurant manager 2. It seems there is a problem with the IT systems in the hotel. First issue is that our online check-in was never registered. Second that our card key didn't work in one case and even when I went to the reception to change the card it was not working again. 3. Last but not least. I've been in hundreds of hotels including very luxury ones. The price of the alcohol in the bar of Sofitel was shocking. Fifteen euros for a JW Black Label that was no more than 30 ml shot. I was really shocked by this price. So my humble advice: nice place to stay if you want to be close to the airport but watch out for the bar prices be aware that the staff might gossip on you.

I've stayed at the Sofitel, Athens Airport many times but obviously in the current climate, not for about eighteen months. Nothing has improved but pricing has increased dramatically to a point where I paid €180 for a room for the night. There is nothing special about this hotel in any way at all and at present the Executive Club Lounge remains closed apparently due to local regulations but over the way in the terminal, all the airport lounges are open, it doesn't make sense. Only one restaurant is open and that has an offering the same as any taverna in any street in any Greek town the catch being here you pay three times the price for the same dishes. I find the staff functional rather than pleasant or welcoming, they do their jobs and no more. I was also as a gold card holder offered the usual voucher for a complimentary drink in the bar - an offering across all Accor properties. The offer excludes spirits and champagne. I asked for a particular glass of wine but was told I couldn't have it and only house wine was available. I pointed to the restriction on the voucher and was told it was the 'manager's policy' that only house wine would be served. I asked to speak to the manager who never came but I was offered the wine I wanted after consultation among the bar staff. Had I asked for something expensive? The wine I wanted was 50c more expensive than the house wine bearing in mind my room charge was €180 for a single night. As things are going further downhill here than they already had, I've cancelled a further stay in the coming month, it's easy to get in a taxi at the airport and head a bit further away to spend a lot less and have a better stay. I suggest others do too. Nothing about this hotel is a Sofitel and it's even way above their usual price point in Europe for what is an average Novotel.

We stayed the night before our departure from Athens. The staff is very helpful and accommodating. We arrived early after our departure from a cruise. They were able to get us into our room early. The room is very nice and quiet, even though you are right next to a busy airport. We would stay here again if we were in Athens.

We had an excellent stay here. Plus the restaurant was great and so convenient! The rooms were very nice and the sleep was so comfortable. There is no better place to be for coming or going to your flight.

Check-in good, room very nice and of course incredibly convenient to the Athens airport and Metro Station. Only complaint was that it had one of those cold/hot showers - impossible to get a stable temperature.

I was assigned a new renovated room this time through Athens airport. The cooling system did not adjust below 23C/73.5F and the room was hot and very uncomfortable all night. Rain shower fantastic. New toilet closets are like being in a coffin. Small and dark, creepy. Didn't like them at all. I have stayed here many times and enjoyed but rethinking my next time through. Expensive for a very uncomfortable night.

Everything was good, room was nice and clean, check in was easy. Online check in was useless, because everything was repeated in person. Price is high, but you pay for the convenience. Perfect location, just few steps from the airport.

Once again, a wonderful stay! The most important thing is of course the amazing bed. And the front desk staff and doormen are top-notch. They always try to accommodate our special requests. We did stay in one of the old rooms, but that was acceptable as we got to check in early. We were offered a free upgrade but would have had to wait and we so wanted to lie down right away. Next time!

As you see from my title, we really like to stay at the Sofitel when we travel, every year. The only complaint I have is in the bar. I actually felt ignored. It took a long time for our order to be taken, then a long time to get a second drink. I noticed some others got much faster service. This was definitely an anomaly for my previous experience at this hotel.

We regularly stay at the Athens Airport Sofitel when we are en route or returning from Greece. It is such a welcome site when you come through customs - just a few paces away over the road. You can have dinner outside, and would hardly know you are at an airport hotel. They have had a recent refurb and the rooms were in very good condition.

Probably one of the best airport hotels I have stayed at. I have stayed here multiple times over the year on nights before an early morning flight. You just cannot beat the location. 5 minutes from the hotel door to the Aegean check in counter. A few minutes longer for other airlines / international flights. The rooms in the hotel are modern and sleek. The breakfast is really good and starts at 5:30 AM. My only complaint is that I didn’t get to spend more time in bed – the bedding is awesome.

Sofitel Athens always provides excellent service to guests….extremely convenient location, friendly and professional staff members, great food, wonderful rooms including great showers, and quite possibly the most comfortable bed ever!!!!

Great beds and great bathrooms and a very convenient place to stay when travelling via Athens airport. Easy journey to central Athens on the Xpress bus (24 hour service) which stops just outside the hotel.
