Pireaus Hotels

Piraeus Hotels

There are a lot of hotels in Pireaus, some old "favorites" that have been renovated and some new ones too. I have listed those within walking distance of the port and the metro at the very top of the page for their convenience. You can catch the X96 bus to and from the airport to Pireaus, and you can take the metro and the Proastiakos (Suburban Railway) though you may have to change trains. But for those of you who want to be close to the ferries you will find this page useful. Keep in mind that you can also stay in any hotel in downtown Athens that is close to the metro and be in Pireaus in about 15 minutes or take a taxi right to the boat instead of walking from your hotel or the metro to the ferry dragging your luggage. The Pireaus hotels that are further away may offer a shuttle or some kind of service to and from the ferries and the metro but if not you can always ask them to call a taxi. Remember that just because a hotel says it is close to the ferry port that does not mean it is close to your ferry. But luckily there is a Piraeus port shuttle bus so as long as you know which gate your ferry is at (it says on your ticket), you should be able to figure out where to get off.

Pireaus Theoxenia Hotel

Piraeus Theoxenia Hotel 5 stars

The only 5-star deluxe hotel in Piraeus, this hotel is a modern landmark building, set on a prestigious block in the business district. The area provides excellent transport links with the train station and metro nearby connecting the hotel with the airport and city centre. There are cultural attractions in close proximity to the hotel, though if you are just staying here to catch an early boat that probably won't matter to you. Each spacious room is tastefully decorated, features a distinctive design and includes high-speed internet access. The interiors combine elements of Neoclassical architecture with the latest designs. It also offers conference rooms with capacities ranging from 30 to 300 people. Housing stylish, comfortable and contemporary accommodation, this is a unique residence with a sense of elegance. The hotel is a member of the Great Hotels of the World. Of the hotels listed here the Theoxenia is the furthest walk to the boat, maybe ten minutes, but if you are staying here you will probably take a taxi anyway. It is also close to the cruise terminal.

Piraeus Acropole Hotel

Acropole Hotel 2 stars

Cheap, clean and convenient which is pretty much all you need if you are arriving late and leaving early and only staying one night. (In other words disregard any bad reviews because you won't be here long enough to care). Located in the centre of Piraeus in a completely renovated building a block from the ferryboats, this hotel offers a personalised service with staff always ready to help you make the most of your trip. Acropole Hotel offers excellent value-for-money in a homely environment. Rooms are spacious and comfortable and have their own refrigerator so you can return to a nice cool drink after a day walking the cobbled streets discovering archaeological sites. The hotel is superbly located for exploring the area as the metro is just a short walk away.
