Directly under the Acropolis, in the historic neighborhood of Plaka, this hostel offers accommodation that is as notable in its cleanliness as it is in its simplicity, with shared bathrooms and all basic hotel amenities: air conditioning, complimentary breakfasts, free WiFi, a common area, 24-hour reception and security. Top floor rooms offer a lovely view of the Acropolis while the garden below comes alive in the summer for guests to drink, socialize and relax. Outside of Dioskouros, guests can follow the ancient paths winding around the Acropolis, the Temple of Zeus, Byzantine churches, neoclassical mansions and small eclectic museums—all of which are within a short walk. Venturing a little further, guests could enjoy a small mean at the Greek tavernas along the cobbled streets or a drink at the ouzo bars to boot. Transportation is also made accessible, with direct transport links to the airport, the beach and numerous train stations.
