Ikaros, Piraeus Overview
Ikaros is located in Piraeus, Greece. Rated 5.8 out of 10 based on 231 guest reviews.
Ikaros is a straightforward, family-friendly base in Piraeus, Greece, set on Leocharous at 18 Leocharous. The location suits travelers who want to balance city errands with time by the sea, since Freatida Beach is about 2 km away and Votsalakia Beach is roughly 3 km from the hotel. If you’re planning culture as well as coastline, the Archaeological Museum of Piraeus and the Piraeus Municipal Theatre are both around 2 km away, giving you options for an afternoon indoors when the weather turns.
Rooms are air-conditioned and kept non-smoking, and the hotel also provides room service for quieter nights in. For practical travel days, luggage storage helps you manage arrivals and departures, while express check-in/check-out and private check-in/check-out can reduce waiting when you’re on a tight schedule. Free wired internet is available, which is useful for checking ferry times or planning the next leg of a road trip.
Guest feedback is mixed but grounded: with a 5.8/10 score from 231 reviews, many people mention the value of having a calm place to reset, while others point to the limited front-desk hours and the fact that parking isn’t available. In short, Ikaros is best for families and road-trip travelers who prioritize air conditioning, basic comfort, and easy access to Piraeus’ beaches and sights, and who don’t need on-site parking or round-the-clock reception.
