Phidias Piraeus Hotel

Great hotel near the marina. 7 minutes to the cruise port and 1 minute walk to the marina shops and restaurants. Highly recommend!

The staff were beyond helpful! The hotel was small but pristine. Looking forward to visiting again.

This was my first time staying here but it wont be my last. As a frequent traveller to Greece I often need a hotel for 1/2 nights in Pireaus before an onward journey. This is by far the best of the hotels I have used in Pireaus. Good situation very close to the marina, great access to shops, tavernas, and a great area within Pireaus. Very clean rooms, well decorated with a good range of amenities. Helpful and friendly staff. An unexpected bonus is the free shuttle to the port...i would usually have walked, but at 6.45am, a shuttle was very welcome. This was a winter stay, but if you were here in the height of the season and don't know the area and given how rammed Pireaus gets (and it is a very large port), then this shuttle would be wonderful. All in all, it's a very good deal. Highly recommended.

The entire staff was very friendly, helpful, accommodating, and courteous. The service was excellent. The location was convenient for walking to shops and restaurants. The ride to the cruise ship terminal was a great added service. I enjoyed the stay and would recommend to friends and family visiting Athens.

What a great place to stay if you're going on a cruise! Convenient to the port, nice breakfast available, good Wi-Fi, and wonderful service and friendliness of the staff. I cannot recommend highly enough!!

The Phidias is a gem in Piraeus and an excellent place to "decompress" after a long flight before embarking on a cruise. George was waiting for us at the customs exit, even though our flight was 1-1/2 hours early. (We had made arrangements for airport transportation with the hotel before we left and the charge is E95.) We arrived at the hotel before 11am, and our room was immediately available. Our room had a comfortable queen bed and a sofa bed (which could have been collapsed into a sofa if we had asked), as well as a chair, refrigerator and hot water service for making coffee or tea. The bathroom was spacious but had limited area around the sink for toiletries and other items women need when making-up in the bathroom. Also the lighting was not suitable for applying make-up, a common problem with many hotel rooms. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. What really set this place apart, however, was its location, just a block away from the inner marina with many (outdoor!) restaurants ringing it with fabulous food at reasonable prices. There were also many drug and convenience stores/kiosks on the way. There is also a great archaeological museum about 4 blocks away with many outlet shops along the way. In summary, if cruising out of Piraeus again, I would definitely stay at the Phidias.

Pro: Clean room, friendly staff, surprisingly quiet, quick check-in and checkout. Con: Breakfast is kind of small and from my perspective it will be better to take breakfast somewhere outside.

This was a perfect spot for us to stay the night before our cruise. We took the express bus from the airport to the port, walked 10 min and found the hotel. It's literally a 2 min walk to the Harbourfront where there's everything you could want: restaurants, takeaway, ships, a grocery store, Starbucks, pharmacies. I even got my nails done and my husband went to the barbers'. It was ideal.

This hotel is a 10 out of 10 . Everything from the early check in , to the staff , welcoming friendliness , spotless cleanliness , courtesy shuttle to the cruise port booked at check in , stores and restaurants nearby . Thank you for making our stay carefree .
