3. (Day 1) Athens 地鐵 / Apollo Hotel


依照Dickens 的經驗, 坐機場鐵路往市區.   4人20euros.  2人一張套票.



    
記得進入月台時要自動把車票過黃色既check 票機, 會記錄入站時間.  鐵路職員會間中查票,免卻不必要的麻煩.  雖然出發前Dickens提過我, 但我都忘記了.  好彩Helen 記得.   我地嗰一程就有査票.




我地要先往Syntagma Square, 再轉車往Metaxourgio.   在這兒遇到位台灣人來這兒公幹教我地轉車.  希臘文音節多, 不容易聽,.  不用1小時就到酒店, 挺方便.


出咗Metaxourgio站後, 難題就來了.  希臘的建築物頗殘舊.   馬路上的街名牌多己脫落, 並不清晰.  地鐵站口既地圖非常簡單.   酒店亦只說明在Ahilleos Exit.  然後就自尋出路.  問當地人d 人話唔知, 最後估下估下選中方向扺達酒店.




我在venere.com 上訂了Apollo Hotel.  http://www.apollonhotel-athens.com/


出門前查了要3天內改訂房, 要經酒店同意.  我說明朋友臨時取消房間, 我們亦可能會多住一晚.  但那位男職員死不肯幫忙, 還說我們要和venere.com 協調.  他亦死蠢的不會把2間房的總和加在一起簽卡.  還叫我不要打斷他的說話.  我把信用卡再次給他時, 他還問我為什麼要幫她們付, 還問我是她們的grandma 嗎?   未能退回Jen的酒店費用, 心情己經不好.  他連我們是否多住一晚都不理, 叫我們和明早的reception說.  當時真想罵他.  他亦有當眾讚Akiko 很漂亮. 


我們的房間還不錯, 很乾淨, 有balcony.   我們的3人房有bath tub.   Helen 的雙人房係用shower, toilet 比較細小..  我們的房間好些.  跟住才醒起網絡前輩的提點應要求不要向馬路嘈雜的房間.  剛才太生氣忘掉了.  不過想起明天要坐火車早起, 在繁忙時段前離開就算了. 


早上於酒店Balcony 外的景色, 仍可望見月亮呢!


酒店的早餐算不錯, 房價合理 (於booking.com 訂68 euros - double room包早餐), 地點亦方便.  如果不是那位人兄,我一定會在這兒多住一晚.   當晚我亦忘了上酒店的roof top, 應該可望到衛城夜景, 真可惜.   早上退房時個女reception 既態度好好多.   我地往Meteora 只帶一小袋行李.  大行李存放在酒店.   這女子還走出來教我們把行李存放在basement的雜物房那兒.   期望接下來的旅程d service 不會太差.

  3. Hi,

    i want to ask you how to get there after got off from the Metaxourgio 站?  
    and i will travel by myself only, the neigourhood of this hotel is goo or not?
    And i will plan to go to Metemora also, but it seems to difficult to go there by myself without driven licence.
    Could u mind to tell me how to go to Metemora also!
    Thanks so much!

    [版主回覆03/21/2011 23:27:00]i'm not sure how to tell u neither, as 睇地圖都唔係咁容易明,  u better ask several people there to find out the right direction.     The neighbourhood is ok.  But not so many people on the street.  Hope u're arriving in day time. u can take train to go to Meteora, take a look on my train route in this page & this train schedule http://www.ose.gr

  4. 小月 ,
    Thx so much ar!
    Wish i can go there with a little effort :)
    For the Meteora,...im still thinking about it....
    i really wanna to go there but....
    Seems that i need to spend at least 2 days on there, however, there is no plenty of time on Athens for me!
    This is because i will be back from Mykonos to Athens by plane on 7/4 morning, and will fly to Rome on 10/4 morning
    So, there is only 2.5 days for me spent on Athens only, there will be 0.5 day for me on Athens if i choose to go to Meteora for 2 days!
    Any suggestion to me?
    i got some info that there were some people went to Meteora by 1 day return....is it possible?
    OMG....i will start my trip in next Wed....so excited with worried also....
    Thanks once again :)

    [版主回覆03/23/2011 23:16:00]i will choose meteora, unless you plan to go to Greece again.  Rome is always easy to go.    Won't suggest you come back on the same day, u should stay longer and enjoy the view there.   Don't forget u have to spend $$$ for the train.     0.5 days in Athens is also too short.     I also don't have enough time in Athens before.     But Greece is definitely worth to visit again.   Greece is famour for strike.   U also need to pay attention your flight won't be delayed.     I think u just go there and decide your plan as you go.   Enjoy your trip and take more photos to show me.
