About

Ikaros Hotel Elliniko

Ikaros Hotel Elliniko sits on Leoforos Poseidonos, the coastal road that runs along the Athenian Riviera. It is a 2-star property, but the location is what draws guests: Glyfada Beach is a 750-metre walk away, and a tram stop is right in front of the hotel, making it easy to reach central Athens without a car.

Rooms are simple and functional, with air conditioning, heating, and flat-screen TVs. Some rooms have sea views or balconies, and the hotel offers a range of practical amenities including free parking, a 24-hour reception, and a sun terrace. It is not a luxury stay, but it covers the essentials for travellers who plan to spend their days exploring the coast and the city.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Location on the tram line — A tram stop sits right in front of the hotel, giving easy access to central Athens and the nearby Glyfada restaurants.
  • Free parking — The hotel offers on-site parking at no extra charge, a rare convenience along the Athenian coast.
  • Clean, functional rooms — Guests consistently note the cleanliness and practicality of the rooms, with air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and some offering sea views or balconies.
  • Friendly staff — The team is repeatedly described as flexible, cooperative, and genuinely helpful.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Breakfast is underwhelming — One guest called it 'okay but nothing special', so don't book expecting a highlight meal.
  • Some bathrooms show wear — A guest noted the bathroom was 'a bit tired', though it still functioned well and offered sufficient space.
  • Basic 2-star facilities — There's no pool or gym, and the rooms are functional rather than stylish — acceptable for the price, but not for those seeking more comfort.
