Cecil Hotel is good value for money, no frills. It is situated at 5 minutes walk from Monastiraki Square and metro station. It is on the busy, bustling Athinas Street, which is fascinating and authentic. The hotel is quiet, spotlessly clean and secure. The area is safe. I have stayed in Cecil Hotel several times.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Good location, friendly staff, old hotel, everywhere smoke-stained smell, uncomfortable beds, small bathrooms, poor maintenance. Breakfast was poor: supermarket bread, chees and ham, yogurt, packaged cake, and cold hard-boiled eggs. Not recommended. The only plus is the location (about a 15-20 minute walk from the Acropolis) and the truly beautiful view of the Acropolis from the rooftop.
