Reviews for Argo Hotel Piraeus

Review 1：It's a very basic, but also very cheap hotel, and it's the closest one to the port of Pireaus, so it's mostly convenient for catching an early-morning ferry to the islands. For overnight is perfect, and it has a free parking.

Review 2：Sound proofing non-existent, including door into room.

Review 3：We booked an "upgraded" room. It was spartan but OK. I would hate to see a regular room. Staff was pleasant and helpful.

Review 4：The one negative was there was a big flood light lighting up the sign straight outside our window which kept me awake very later which didn't help with the early wake up time I had. The lift did eventually go off. Be sure to ask for a room away from the flood light.

Review 5：Great to stay the night before heading out to the islands. Location was near train station, port and a great area for dining. Very easy to walk around.

Review 6：Could have been a problem.with early morning call as staff got confused with their own equipment.

Review 7：When travelling to the islands I always stay at the Argo. It is so near to boats. But with competition getting tough I may choose somewhere different next time

Review 8：Nothing

Review 9：1. 5 mins walk to the Piraeus port where we could catch the ferry to Santorini 2. Room was quite big and clean 3. Close to many restaurants 4. X96 bus from airport drops almost close to the hotel 5. Wifi was good

Review 10：Overall good

Review 11：Location isn't bad at all about 7-10 minute walk out of the centre of pireaus so pretty good , tight bathroom but it's only 30euro a night and the A/C isn't to bad so overall a 7 out of 10 I would only stay for an overnight stay unless you have the upgraded room which is a little bigger then the double ...

Review 12：Breakfast not included. Staff were not helpful, giving confusing or incorrect directions. Taxi had trouble finding hotel. It's s confusing part of the city to get around if walking.

Review 13：Modern room and bathroom Close proximity to great restaurants.

Review 14：It is not worth to spend additional 5 euro for breakfast.

Review 15：If you just want to have short stay and take ferry in the next early morning, it is OK to be there. it is very close to port and metro station.

Review 16：I booked for taxi collection. The flight was extremely late and no driver was waiting. when I arrived at the hotel I complained, The staff said it wasn't their fault as they used a sub-contractor. I pointed out that as the booking was made through them, it was their responsibility to check arrivals with the airlines. The young man on reception didn't have a clue what I was talking about. Layout of the hotel and small rooms were claustrophic.

Review 17：The price

Review 18：The hotel looks much better on the pictures than in reality

Review 19：Perfect location for the tourists taking an early ferry from Pireus.The port is 10 min stroll from the hotel

Review 20：Lift, and no black out blind in room too light

Review 21：Very good value for money and a reasonable location for everywhere . go out off hotel turn left and go straight across first road and 150 m down on the right is a very good value for money taverna ask to go up stairs. free water and bread very unusual in grease

Review 22：The location is perfect, short walk to the port. Also the man working that night at the desk was very kind and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable, AC and WiFi worked well.

Review 23：Was told by our taxi driver not to go outside at night because it was a dangerous street

Review 24：Staff were very nice Good for a short stay for somewhere to sleep

Review 25：The neighborhood is not very glamorous (but what to expect with a port area!). Only one electric plug, that was not enough :(

Review 26：Very welcoming and available staff, very beautiful hotel inside, very design and hype, nice bathroom ! Well located near to the port, if you plan to take a boat early, fifteen minutes by feet from the hotel to catch it.

Review 27：We needed an overnight stay before catching a ferry and the hotel was very good for this! Location is just walking distance from the ferries and they also offer to pick up your tickets. The hotel also can book you a transfer from the airport, we booked with an external provider which did not show up and where saved by the hotel services. Food is good and at very good prices

Review 28：We just stayed there for one night arriving late, getting the ferry next day. Very convenient bus x96 there it takes a while but still. Then a short walk to the ferry terminals. We got directed for a late night meal to a place just across and the Greek salad was the best of our whole holiday. Very simple place but nice

Review 29：the manager pointed us in the right direction to an little restaurant where the food was amazing. He also arranged an early pick-up and told the driver where to go as he did not speak english.

Review 30：No soundproof. Our bedroom was right near the lift, I mean right near the lift. We could hear everything and we were woken multiple times to a crying child which came from another room but you could mistaken it for being in your room. All in all the hotel served its purpose, a clean bed close to the port. They offer a free transfer to the port of you buy their breakfast which is £8 (£16 for two) but it's not worth it if you an manage the short walk with your suitcase bag down to the port and grab breakfast there.

Review 31：Piraeus in itself isn't a very nice area and the hotel isn't much, we only needed to stay two nights, for a day to sight see and to stay near the port. We paid £90 for two nights. It's nothing fancy however the location to the port is great, 5-10 minute walk from hotel. The bathroom was clean and newish.

Review 32：Very noisy as people staying were coming and going throughout the night. Probably as a result of location close to Piraeus.

Review 33：Short walk to ferries departing from Piraeus. Friendly staff.

Review 34：The older woman at reception was very unfriendly and unhospitable. When I asked for help with my luggage she promptly informed me that the hotel didn't offer that service, and it was my own responsibility. The rooms are tiny, when standing in the middle you could easily touch both sides.

Review 35：Breakfast was poor, and wifi wasn't working properly.

Review 36：We stayed for one night and our room was excellent. Clean bed and bathroom with nice gallery view.

Review 37：Walls are a little thin. Could hear maid taking towels/sheets out of cupboard for rooms through out the night. But is very cheap for a hotel in central Piraeus!

Review 38：The location is near to the port and the bus to the airport. Extremely good value for money! I use this hotel every time I am in Pireaus.

Review 39：The bed wasn't comfortable and I have noticed that one time the maid didn't clean the toilet

Review 40：The staff was very friendly,very warm people and helpful

Review 41：The breafast needs to improve greatly. The variety needs to be up to the mark. Eggs were stale. Very disappointing!

Review 42：Ready to help. The concierge readily arranged for our transfer to the airport.

Review 43：The location is excellent for those traveling by ferry, within walking distance from the port (15 min by foot). It is good quality for the money. The stuff was very nice and helpful.

Review 44：Great for one night stay before and after ferry! Walking distance to the port-7 min. Walking distance to the airport bus stop both directions.

Review 45：The room was very simple yet clean. No extras.

Review 46：The hotel was well marked from the port and surrounded by places to eat and a major street for window shopping. Thr staff was very friendly.

Review 47：The room was small, but had a small balcony. A bit further from the waterfront than we expected, especially when dragging bags.

Review 48：Very good value. Clean room, comfy bed, good for short stay. Short taxi ride to the cruise ship terminal. Helpful staff.

Review 49：We pre-booked a non-smoking room but were put into a smoking room. They did then change it. The room was incredibly noisy - from street noise, noise from reception, and adjacent rooms.

Review 50：Close to the port

Review 51：We were driving and it was hard to find the hotel. The hotel provided directions before we arrived and there were signs all over to help get to it but there were one way streets all around which took us a while to figure out/

Review 52：We stayed here 2 times, on our second visit we got a very nice spacious room on the 6th flr. Staff were very helpful and I appreciated that they pre-purchased my Ferry tickets and gave us a free shuttle to the hop on /hop off bus terminal

Review 53：Breakfast very basic, not worth 8 EUR if you do not need the drive to the port that was included in breakfast price.

Review 54：Close to the port, and transfer to port included in breakfast price. Rooms was nice and clean.

Review 55：Room was quite small for 3 people. En suite didn't smell very nice.

Review 56：Friendly staff. Good breakfast. Close to bus stop. Nice touch to get free transfers to port if breakfast was purchased.

Review 57：strong smell of cigarette smoke in room - should have been aired with window open. air conditioner too noisy.

Review 58：Location - good value for money - some very helpful staff

Review 59：Think the breakfast could be a tiny bit better. Would be nice to see some fruit for the yoghurt and a quicker toaster.

Review 60：The staff, and the room. Nice and quiet hotel very clean and very helpful staff. Good location.

Review 61：Location was great. Just a 10 minute walk to the terminal E6/E7 where I was departing. Staff were incredibly helpful. The bar in the hotel sold bottles of water which was great as My flight was delayed and thought everything would be shut. Perfect for an over night stay,

Review 62：Only downside was the view on the wall of the next door building.

Review 63：The owner was very helpful. Perfect place for catching early ferry. Nice bar. Comfy bed.

Review 64：The breakfast was extremely average. The cereal was the highlight.

Review 65：The value for money was good. The staff were helpful and easy t talk to. The room provided everything I required.

Review 66：It's not for people who are staying multiple days and want a spacious place to stay. Very tiny elevator.

Review 67：Bare essentials, close to port, clean. The hotel is a bit hidden in the small streets but there are signs leading you there from the express bus stop from the airport.

Review 68：No complaints! This is not the place to stay if you are wanting to explore the traditional Athens sites, but it is perfect if you are looking to be near the port.

Review 69：If you are looking to stay near the port for a great price, this is a wonderful location. It took us less than 10 minutes to walk to the restaurants on the water and nearby shops. It was also great to be able to take the bus from the airport for 5 euro (even though it is a long ride). Much more economical than a taxi!

Review 70：That they were fully booked when I had to stay in Piraeus the week after!

Review 71：Super helpful and friendly staff; they even brought us with our bags to the ferry very early in the morning. Very clean and new room with a good shower.

Review 72：Quite old style hotel. Shower was old (with seperate hot and cold water).

Review 73：Near to harbour (for ferries to islands), just 5 minutes walk there. Easy to come with bus straight from the airport (the hotel sent me info how to get there).

Review 74：Ease of booking and convenience to airport bus and ferries! Easy to find thanks to their signs. Transportation to ferry included when you buy breakfast--great deal--cheaper than a taxi to port! Great wifi!!

Review 75：The staff is very unfriendly. Have to ask for everything including wifi password, aircon. The room is not clean, especially the washroom.

Review 76：10 minutes walking from the port.

Review 77：Only 1 outlet in room and 1 in washroom. Room extremely small for 3 people. Beds are hard, taxi still needed to get to Pireaus

Review 78：Very helpful staff at reception.

Review 79：No

Review 80：location is close to the port, we arrive at mid night there's No problem about check-in, wifi is fast, room is clean, breakfast is good, better than the other more expensive hotel we booked in Athens

Review 81：the bathroom, but i believe it is common problem in Greece, bcuz the other hotel in Santorini has the same problem.

Review 82：Although the service of transfer from hotel to the port can not be reserved, but it is easy to get to the port, only a few minutes, not very far away. and the host is very kind.

Review 83：location is quite hard to find from the metro ,and it was quite scary if u walk around the area in the very late night, but its pretty close to Pireaus

Review 84：not so fancy but clean and modern, value the price!

Review 85：Old small room with super small bathroom The bed is small and not comfy at all The wall is thin, we can hear the noise outside all night. 850 m. walking distance but not recommended if you arrive late. Nothing is like the website photos except restaurant.

Review 86：The breakfast is nice with not just coffee like other review Big balcony that we never use. Good for 1 night.

Review 87：I was traveling with my dog and there were no problems at all. They are very flexible with the check in. I reach my room with the elevator. The room was clean, with a/c, a little tv and a fast wifi connection, The hotel has a private parking for cars and motos. it Is situated in a good neighbourhood with the all essential shops u may need. Very close to the port gates.

Review 88：The staff was polite and helpful. My room was very clean. The wifi had great reception. They called me a cab early in the morning of my departure which only took 3 minutes to arrive. Everything was great!

Review 89：The walls in the hotel are not the best and unfortunately we had some noisy neighbours that drank until late.

Review 90：Good location if you need to catch a ferry the next day. Its maybe a 5-10 min walk from the docks. We even had enough time to go a little shopping on the local street market(very cheap and fresh veggies, fruit etc) great to take with you if your going to the more expensive islands.

Review 91：Very basic. Staff did not describe any of the facilites, breakfast (which I thought was included) or wifi. Just seemed in a rush to take money and pack the last minute rush of people into their rooms. Room was very basic for the price and not the cleanest.

Review 92：Relatively convenient for late night arrivals at the port.

Review 93：The rooms are very confortable and the hotel is very close to the port. In the area there are a lot of 24h bakeries and other minor shops that are very handy for late travelers. Even tho, the W-Fi signal is not very strong inside the room and the bathroom is a bit small.

Review 94：None.

Review 95：We had to stay in Athens because of sudden reschedule of our ferry. We arrived at 11 pm so we booked this hotel beforehand. Its only 15-20 minutes walk from Pireas port, so its a great location. And the facilities really worth the price. All basic needs and of course keeping us warm all night. The staff are really kind and friendly, he printed our boarding pass and in the morning they drive us to the bus station to catch the airport bus! Wonderful! Its really worth it to stay at this hotel, will recommend everyone to stay here. Efkharisto poli!

Review 96：The central heating was not adjustable in our room. It became a bit too warm in the room for my taste. But it worked and that was good,because it was cold outside :-).... the hairdryer was broken (but seemed to be incidentally and would be fixed soon)

Review 97：Friendly staff, very clean room, nothing missing in the room, fair breakfast buffet, good WiFi connection (could watch online videos without any interruptions), quiet location (quite side road)....

Review 98：Only one availble socket in our room.

Review 99：Very nice staff, giving helpful advice. Thanks a lot, all of you! Small clean room, reasonable price, hot water runs 24h. Very convinient location, 10 minutes to port Pireas on foot, and less than 15 to the terminal of green line metro.

Review 100：we can hear the noise of other rooms

Review 101：we arrived late, around midnight. it was a bit difficult to find the hotel but the staff was very friendly. the room was clean, recommend it to who want take a early ferry or arrive late at the port

Review 102：Not too clean but exaptable. The bed was clean which is most important.

Review 103：Close to the Port easy to reach with the airport bus. Good place to stay when being on a journey through.

Review 104：Very comfortable stay, room and bathroom good size with good fixtures & fittings, only stayed one night between ferry drop off and airport the next day but would suit longer if needed.

Review 107：bad internet. one unfriendly staff. not clean

Review 108：Very reasonable price, free transport to port in the morning. Value for the money if you are staying just for a night and leaving to port the next morning.

Review 110：Great price! Staff: very helpful and friendly. Couldn't be nicer. Cleanliness of hotel room and bed Great location

Review 111：centrally located in Pireaus. Near to the Port. The staff will brilliant. Arranged my airport transfer and also my ferry ticket which was waiting for me at reception when I arrived. Staff were very accomodating as I arrived late in the evening. Room was a little small but perfect for an overnight stay. They will take you to the port for the ferries as well which is great when you have lots of luggage. Will definitely stay there again

Review 112：Great location for accessing the port and the airport bus. We stayed one night and it was perfect for us to get our ferry tickets and get the ferry in the morning. Basic room with no thrills but good value and location.

Review 113：noisy..the shower was small even for me (im small)..i asked for a double bed..was told i had it and walked into 2 singles..had to leave the key to my room everytime i went out..room service was okay but slow..they were pleasant enough but not overly helpful..

Review 114：it was in a pretty good position

Review 115：None what so ever

Review 116：Staff were fantastic when we arrived, gave us our key, showed us where the lift was, told us about breakfast and location of dining area. Was a little sceptical after some of the reviews but need not of worried. Gave us directions to the port for our trip to Poros, very clear and precise. a big Thankyou to all who work at Argo Anita and especially to Russell who brought us our beers after a long hot journey. Found it really easy from the station and to the port next day.

Review 117：Staff appeared disinterested in assisting me and strange, unpleasantsmell particularly in the bathroom. Room very cramped and no tea makingfacilities.

Review 118：Proximity to Piraeus town. 6 Euros buy you a buffet breakfast andtransport to catch the ferry.

Review 119：- a little bit noisy (avoid the room next to the elevator) - avoid the breakfast

Review 120：- cheap for correct quality - close from the port as well as bus to airport and metro to athens

Review 121：Perfect stop off for a night before taking a ferry - super helpful staff who organise everything including knowing the time of every ferry! They arrange breakfast then drop you at the ferry steps - very relaxing way to start a holiday without worrying about finding your way around or missing a connection. Thank you!

Review 122：The rooms are unfortunately so close to each other. When one opens and closes, it makes so much noise and makes us a bit anxious. The way from the bus stop or the metro is very desolate and uncanny at night, but it is okay during the day.

Review 123：The staff is so kind and helpful.

Review 124：- Difficult access with the car (small and busy street) - Furniture and wallpaper as for "red area" harbor hotel - Bathroom too small; impossible to achieve the minimal functionalities - Everywhere you have the small & cheap feeling - The lady from reception accept the conversation with the client, but on the final she did what she want

Review 125：- Location close to the bus, train and ferry stations - Breakfast (but not so various and not included in the room price)

Review 126：Excellent location, close to the port. Always clean and comfortable and the staff are very welcoming and obliging. Buffet breakfast is good and there is a lift to the port if you so wish.

Review 127：The hotel is located perfect if you need to catch a ferry early in the morning. The staff are very helpfull and speek perfect english. Rooms are clean. I would recommend it to anyone spending only a few hours before catching the ferry. Great value!!

Review 128：We stayed in this hotel for 1 night to take the ferry to ios in the early morning. Its very easy to come from the airport to the hotel by xpress bus. And it is just 6 minutes walking distance to piraeus which is very good. Also if you take the open buffet breakfast at 6am they will drop you to piraeus if you have too many luggages. Everybody was so helpful around. The rooms were clean. If you need a hotel for 1 night just like us this is the perfect choice.

Review 129：-Bathroom was very small(you get used to it in Greece) though very clean.

Review 130：We stayed for a night before catching the ferry next day. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They arranged a free taxi for us in the morning because we had the 7.01 ferry!
