Medea, Athens Overview

Medea is located in Athens, Greece. Rated 9.4 out of 10 based on 6 guest reviews.

Medea is a small, family-friendly stay in Athens, Greece, set on Acharnon Street in the Polykatoikia building at 171 Acharnon, A2 on the first floor. The location suits travelers who want to move around the city without complicated transfers, with the National Archaeological Museum about 1.2 km away and the Acropolis roughly 3 km from the property. Guests also mention that getting to central sights is straightforward once you connect to the metro network.

The overall review picture is strongly positive, with a 9.4/10 guest rating from six reviews; people highlight the calm, practical setup and the care taken between stays, including guest rooms being disinfected between visits. Families appreciate that children are allowed and that there are family rooms, while road-trip friendly guests value the straightforward, no-nonsense base for day trips. The terrace gives you a small outdoor pause between sightseeing, and air conditioning helps when you’re returning after a warm Athens day.

You’ll find a coffee shop on site for an easy start, and the hotel operates as a non-smoking property throughout, which matters for travelers sensitive to smoke. Safety and comfort are supported by fire extinguishers and cashless payment options, and the property notes that physical distancing rules are followed.

If you’re visiting Athens for museums and classic landmarks and prefer a simple, clean base over a resort-style experience, Medea fits well—especially for families and groups who want practical comfort and a central city rhythm.
