Question

What is a good, reasonably priced hotel in Athens, somewhere near ferries/Acripolis. ?

Answer 1

Stay at the Arethousa Hotel www.arethusahotel.com (3star). It has a great location - It is near the Plaka, Spanish Steps, Government House and the main train station Syntagama. From just outside the hotel you can see the Acropolis. This hotel has no pool so if you want to stay where there is a pool then the Dorian Inn (4star) is ok (for a short stay only). This has a nice pool and has great views of the Acropolis. Both hotels are about 1-1.5miles from the Acropolis. Both hotels are about 25minutes from the Port of Pireaus (where most cruise lines go to and from).

Answer 2

If you want cheap (just the price of food), then register at http://www.couchsurfing.com for staying with people for free but paying for your own food.

The best way to do this is to register, perhaps open your house to people travelling in your area, be a good host and then once you have built up some feedback from people staying with you, do the same when you travel.

A great way to meet people with a similar interest in travel.  My daughter has done this and is having a ball, meeting new people along the way and getting a feel of the local culture by staying with people who are locals.

Cheers and have a great time.
