Accommodation in Athens-Ampelokipoi

The Question:

Yassis Stavros!!
Thanks for the answer to my last 2 questions; now here is my next......can you recommend a hotel in the Ambilokopi area of Athens? Not expensive but decent and central.
Thanks so much
Jayne in Canada

The Answer:

Hey Jayne!
Ampelokipoi has a variety of hotels to stay in. Since I do not know the exact dates you are interested in, I can not recommend you anything in particular because I do not know the availability of the hotels and the season (prices change). If you want, you can also visit www.athenshotels.gr and check availability and prices for hotels in Athens!

Cheap Accommodation near Cape Sounio

The Question:

Hi Stavros,
Is there an inexpensive Hotel or Guesthouse near Cape Sounion? Perhaps in Legrena or Lavrio? Everything I can find on the web is so expensive.
Thanks a lot.
Graham

The Answer:

Hello Graham!
Unfortunately the area has not many hotels that are listed on the web and only the expensive ones can be booked online. You will be able to find cheap accommodation when you arrive there and look at the spot especially in Lavrio and not exactly in Sounio which is a rather expensive area.

Is pre-booking necessary in September for the greek islands?

The Question:

Thank you Stavros that was most helpful.
Also, in September is it safe to just show up at Naxos, Santorini and Corfuwithout pre booking accommodation, and choosing good places once we get offthe ferry?
Athas

The Answer:

September is not a peak period for Greece, so the majority of hotels have available rooms even in places such as Santorini and Corfu. As a result, a pre-booking is not necessay, unless you want to something very specific or have something special in mind!

Hotels in the Athens International Airport Area

The Question:

Hi Stavros,
Thanks for the info on the Thessaloniki airport bus. Here's another question. Are there any hotels near to Athens airport, apart from the expensive Sofitel and Holiday Inn?
Thanks again
Graham

The Answer:

Hello Graham!
Besides those two hotels that you have mentioned, there are no other hotels in the airport area. The closest regions to the airport, where you will find hotels to stay in, are Nea Makri and Rafina. These are approximately 20 minutes away from the airport by car. If you wish to check available hotels, take a look at www.fantasticgreece.com!
