It's the people that made this place wonderful. Don't get me wrong, the room was great. Small, but typical size by European standards. Very nice, very clean, and very hot water (my 3 major criteria). It was also contemporary and trendy which I like. The hotel staff was excellent, very accommodating and great to have conversation with. I'll never forget them. There is an adjoining cafe (Cafe Niki), where they serve a good breakfast (which is included) as well as coffee and drinks. The location was convenient, very near Syntagma Square. Just a short walk to the Acropolis, the restaurants and bars of the Plaka, and the shopping area and flea market. I highly recommend Hotel Niki, and will definitely stay there again next time I visit Athens.

Maybe I'm not that picky but after reading some of the other comments...I thought the Niki was all right and the location couldn't be beat. There was one desk clerk who was on the grumpy side but also a young one who was nice and helpful. But desk clerks change, of course. We, too, ended up with twin beds but big deal. Everything was clean, the water in the shower was hot and we thought the breakfast was good.
