About

Urban Nest - Suites & Apartments

Urban Nest - Suites & Apartments sits in the heart of Athens, about 600 metres from the Temple of Hephaestus. The 4-star property mixes the ease of a hotel with the flexibility of an apartment — think kitchenettes, separate sitting areas, and private balconies or terraces. A lift, 24-hour security, and express check-in/out keep things smooth, while a coffee shop and welcome drink add a local touch.

Rooms are allergy-friendly and soundproofed, with parquet floors, flat-screen TVs, and tea and coffee facilities. Family suites expand to two king beds plus a single or double, and cots are available. The hotel also arranges car hire and paid airport shuttles, and it runs a small spa menu with manicures, pedicures, and facials. Guests consistently mention the helpful staff and the easy walk to metro connections.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Prime central location — Walk to Monastiraki Square, the metro, and many major sights. Guests call it unbeatable for exploring Athens on foot.
  • Apartment-style comfort — Rooms come with kitchenettes, sitting areas, and soundproofing — a practical mix for longer stays or families.
  • Attentive, praised staff — Multiple guests single out the helpful, friendly team, from check-in to local tips.
  • Order-ahead breakfast — Choose your breakfast the night before and it's served to the table — a small ritual that makes mornings easy, especially with kids.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Rooms and cleanliness scored lower — The 'Rooms and cleanliness' category sits at 7, below the hotel's overall 9 rating. Some guests may find certain rooms less polished.
  • Limited on-site dining — There's a coffee shop and breakfast service, but no full restaurant or bar on site. Guests rely on the many nearby eateries.
  • Parking is tight — Parking is available but the property sits on a central street in old Athens, so spaces may be limited or require advance planning.

“I planned to see Athens' main sights, and this was a great home base. The team was friendly and went out of their way to help. The spot was perfect — near restaurants, shops, and lots of places on foot or via the metro. I'd happily return.”
