This hostel is absolutely awesome, with comfy beds, hot and well pressured showers, and hands down the best breakfast I've had in a hostel. Fresh Greek yogurt, fruit salad, muesli, all kinds of jelly, hard boiled eggs and bread and cheese. SO AWESOME. The views from the rooftop of the acropolis are not to be missed both day and night! Booked extra night after seeing it!

Amazing place to stay in Athens... Great breakfast, close to metro lines, in quaint area where you can experience the most authentic Greek food around. near theatre district if you understand Greek or just love the arts regardless of language. Went during a quieter spell, so might have a more vibrant atmosphere in summer but now it was relaxed and comfortable. Loved the view of the acropolis from the roof top Amazing rooms and the sharing facilities rates best I've ever seen in the world

My favorite of 3 Athens hostels I've stayed in. Nice common area for meeting people. Very comfortable bed. Well located for transit and foot explorations. Nice breakfast with fruit and yogurt. Clean and functioning facilities. Big lockers. Helpful staff. Amusing decor. The only thing they don't have is an acropolis view. I'm missing Athens now.

One of the best hostels I've stayed in. Everything was great. Breakfast that was included in the price was one of the best! Most comfortable bed ever (even better then my bed at home). So clean and new. Great location. Super friendly and helpful staff. Not a party hostel, so if you're looking for a party hostel this isn't it, if you're not looking for a party hostel, this is it! :P I will definitely be recommending this hostel and if I get the chance to return to Athens I will stay here again!

Incredible breakfast and matresses (about the best sleep I've had in a hostel, and I've been in about 50 in the last five years), really helpful people working there, loved the building in itself. I will recommend CityCircus to whoever searches for a hostel in Athens.

Rooms and bathrooms were spotless. The staff are great, they spent a long time looking up options for my next destination without me even asking. The walking tour they recommend is truly excellent. The breakfast is incredible; really nice ingredients rather than just the cheapest options. Roof terrace has a nice view of Acropolis.

This was the first place we stayed on a five week trip and it stands out as one of the best. Comfortable beds, great (filling!) Greek breakfast and an amazing and helpful staff. They also held our bags for a few days while we traveled elsewhere. We've been telling others about them on our travels - and would definitely stay again!

Compared to other Athenian hostels, this one is the newest and the best! Stayed in 6-bed mixed dorm with 2 others. High points: Relaxing and colorful common room, welcoming staff, great breakfast, rooftop view of Acropolis, centrally located, good value for money. Low points: No tissue paper next to the bathroom sinks (yes, this is important!), the 6-bed mixed room can get crammed (and smelly!) when full, must be cautious in the surrounding streets late at night, the toilet pipes are smelly.

The hostel is very nice!!! Near the travel points in Athens. My room would be a little bit small and noise as some car noise during night as my room was near the road.

To call this place a "hostel" just feels crude; it feels like much more than that. The decor is very modern and fresh. The breakfast is awesome and includes homemade jams and homegrown olives among other items. The staff also offer home cooked dinners and snacks every night for 6 euro! The staff are all very friendly and have recommendations and tips for anything you need or have questions about.

Beautiful hostel with extremely helpful and accommodating staff. The hostel is very new and the facilities there are all very high quality. The bedding, furniture, down to bathroom fixtures are premium. Our first night we stayed in the sub street level bedroom, it was nicely appointed, but i had problems with my asthma. As we were not aware at the time of booking of the basement location, the staff there promptly moved us to another private room without extra charge. Will definitely recommend!
