Best Places to Stay Near Athens Ferry Port

View from Port Square Hotel overlooking Piraeus ferry port, metro entrance, and cars lining up for early morning departures.

Catching an early ferry out of Athens can feel quite… chaotic — long lines, rushed mornings, and the stress of dragging your luggage across the city. When my partner and I realized we were heading to Koufonisia the next day, we decided to stay near the port — and honestly, it was one of our smartest decisions.

Even though we still had to walk a bit from the hotel, it beat waking up at dawn, scrambling for a ride, and worrying about racing to the terminal.

Staying near Piraeus makes the whole experience smoother and way more relaxed.

So in this post, I’m sharing the best hotels near the Athens ferry port — places that blend comfort, style, and convenience for anyone catching an early ride to the islands.

Imagine easy mornings, quicker walks to the port, and zero stress so you can enjoy your vacation.

Port Tower Piraeus Hotel

A clean, modern stay with a restaurant, solid breakfast, and stylish rooms. The only trade-off? …It’s right by a nightclub, so it can get noisy — definitely bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper.

PERFECT FOR: Friends, couples, solo travelers
STAR RATING: 5-star
WHY IT WORKS: Modern design, good food options, walkable location

The Port Square Hotel

We actually stayed here and loved it.

The interiors are modern, cozy, and surprisingly chic. The bed was insanely comfortable after a long travel day, and the downstairs restaurant made grabbing a bite to eat super convenient. There’s also a morning buffet, but just a heads up: if you have friends joining you who aren’t hotel guests, they’ll need to pay separately.

PERFECT FOR: Stylish travelers, couples, families
STAR RATING: 4-star
WHY IT WORKS: Comfy beds, great design, convenient dining
