About
The Y Hotel
The Y Hotel sits on a quiet street in Kifissia, one of Athens' most elegant and leafy suburbs. The building, once the old Hotel Katerina, has been transformed into a small design hotel with 42 rooms, many overlooking the garden. Guests consistently highlight the stylish interiors and the quality of the breakfast buffet.
The location is a draw for those who want to be near high-end shopping, restaurants, and bars, all within walking distance. While it's not the base for exploring the ruins of central Athens, it offers a calm, upscale retreat with easy access to the rest of the city.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Standout breakfast — Guests repeatedly praise the breakfast buffet for its quality and variety, often calling it unique or first-class.
- Leafy, upscale location — In quiet Kifissia, a short walk from Kefalari Park, with high-end shopping, restaurants, and bars nearby.
- Friendly, helpful staff — Reviews consistently describe the personnel as extremely polite, kind, and willing to help.
- Design-led rooms — The interiors are modern and stylish, with guests noting the renovated bathrooms and thoughtful extras like balconies.
–
Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Not central for sightseeing — The hotel is in Kifissia, which is not convenient for visiting the Acropolis and other ancient ruins in central Athens.
- No pets allowed — The hotel has a strict no-pets policy, so you'll need to make other arrangements for your animal companions.
- Check-in window ends at midnight — Check-in is from 15:00 to 23:59, so arriving after midnight isn't possible without prior arrangement.
- Limited on-site parking information — No parking details are provided in the hotel's information, which could be a consideration for drivers.
