Hello Fodorites. My husband and I will be in Athens for one night in September. Any hotel recommendations would be welcome. I guess our budget would be somewhere between $400 and $600 a night, especially since we won't be there very long. I read that Plaka, Monastirak and Syntagma are pretty central areas to stay in. Thanks very much.

I don’t have recommendations at that price point but you shouldn’t need to spend anything like that.

For money like that, I would insist on a view of the Acropolis. But to guarantee that, you would have to deal directly with the hotel.

We loved our stay at the Electra Palace hotel

Great location in a walkable district, fantastive views from the rooftop restaurant, and a nice in-house spa.

We really liked our stay at this hotel: https://thezillersathens.com/hotel/

Great location and great service, lovely rooftop terrace for breakfast overlooking the Acropolis

Another one we have stayed at and liked is https://www.athensgate.gr/

Also has a lovely roof terrace overlooking the Acropolos

Neither should cost anywhere near your budget
