July 2026about this stay
Mitsis N’U Piraeus Port served as our home for one night in this busy Greek harbor city. We found a modern, practical hotel that focuses on convenience for travelers heading to the water. It sits within walking distance of the main train station and local transit links for Athens.
Rooms provide enough space for two people, though the air conditioning and soundproofing struggled during our mid-July visit. We enjoyed a varied breakfast and a tasty lunch, even if the kitchen service felt slow. The interiors feel fresh and contemporary, providing a reliable base for guests arriving from the airport.
Travelers needing to be near the ships will find this a solid, reasonably priced choice. It suits short stays best, especially for those with an early ferry or cruise departure. Knowing the area is geared toward transit helps set the right expectations before you arrive at this urban hotel.
Our takeOur single night stay proved this is a convenient port hotel with helpful staff.

Our Mediterranean summer aboard Celebrity Xcel took us from Athens to Barcelona, with Santorini, Mykonos, Ephesus and Valletta along the way. We loved the ship and the itinerary, although the intense July heat and busy school-holiday crowd made it a slightly different Celebrity cruise from the one we had expected.
