Athens offers a wide array of accommodations, with something to suit every budget. Hostels are a great option for younger tourists, or for anyone looking to save a little money. They are often located in trendy areas like Psiri, or near shopping areas and tavernas. Hotel rooms can also be had for low rates, but those on the lower end often lack toilets and telephones. Many are available near the center of the city. Many medium-priced hotels have more amenities, and there are higher-end hotels in both modern and restored older buildings.
Apartments are great for families, those on a longer stay, or just for feeling more at home. Many hotels in Athens even offer both hotel rooms and apartments in the same building.
