Where to Stay in Athens: Hotel Economy (00:53)

by jamay

We looked for a basic, affordable, conveniently located hotel for our first night in Athens. Hotel Economy fit the bill and more. Located in Ommonia Square, it is right by the flea markets and just a short walk to Monastiraki and Syntagma Squares. Ommonia Square also has a direct line to the Piraeus Port, which is what we needed for our early morning ferry ride. The concierge was kind enough to prepare "breakfast packets" for us since we were leaving before the breakfast buffet; we thought it was a warm and thoughtful gesture even though the food itself wasn't that great (it's the thought that counts). Overall, good hotel for your buck.
