.....Concerning hotels in Athens, there is a great variety, depending as you know on the prices...

The nearest hotel in the meeting place is Hotel President (~20 floors height), a 4 star hotel, almost 300m away from the metro stations "Panormou" and

"Ambelokipi". There is also a great variety of hotels around the metro stations "Megaro Mousikis", "Evangelismos", "Syntagma" and "Monastiraki", which are all in the same direction with the Metro line 3 (El. Venizelos - Egaleo), but also near

the metro station "Acropoli", just near The acropolis and Plaka... Just near the City Hall and the metro station "Monastiraki" there is another 4 star hotel that I would try it if I was a tourist in Athens because it's a little "trendy" and "fashionable", but

that reflexes my own taste...
