If you are stopping in Athens: Cheap accommodation
in the centre...
If
you need somewhere central, convenient, clean & economical to stay in
Athens, this is ideal - situated right next to the Acropolis and very close
to the Metro. The lively Monastiraki & Plaka shopping, restaurants and
bars area is also nearby.
(NOTE: Most of our hashers
live way out from the centre - in the Northern or Southern suburbs - away
from tourist spots)
The Metro now connects directly with the new International Airport. The metro takes you to the centre of Athens and down to Piraeus to connect with the ferries to the Islands. (See our website http://www.athenshash.com - in the Interest section - for maps of the Metro & Athens, etc).
This is a great place to stay to do some quick sightseeing and tour the tourist areas, bars, etc.
