They were polite and accepted even I got a few minutes late. They store it in the storage room, right behind the reception desk behind a door.

Friendly staff, very efficient. Suitcases were returned as we had left them, with no missing items. A very convenient process.
October 2025 in Paris
Business was easy to find and to use. As this was our first experience with Stasher we didn't know what to expect. We took a chance and were well pleased.
October 2025 in London
Very handy. Not cheap if you’re a family with several carryon bags, but much easier than lugging them around. We’ll use again.
October 2025 in Norwich
Nice staff, close to station. The hotel could get quite busy so need to prepare extra time to drop/ collect luggage.

Luggage Storage and Lockers in Athens, Stasher's 2025 Guide
Athens is a city built for wandering – up hills, down marble steps, through sun-drenched ruins and tangled old streets. But as beautiful as it is, Athens isn’t always luggage-friendly. Trust us: dragging a suitcase through a market or up to the Acropolis will make you wish you’d left it behind.
Whether you're arriving from Athens International Airport, just checked out of your hotel, or have hours before a ferry or flight, Stasher has convenient luggage storage locations across Athens – including near Monastiraki, Syntagma Square, and major museums – so you can drop your bags and explore freely.
Things You Can’t (Comfortably) Do with Bags in Athens
🏛️ Climbing the Acropolis with a Suitcase? Not a Great Idea: Let’s be honest – if there’s one place where you don’t want a backpack or rolling suitcase, it’s the Acropolis. The climb is steep, the steps are slippery, and there’s little to no shade. Add a crowd of tourists and a suitcase that keeps tipping over, and suddenly that ancient wonder doesn’t feel so majestic anymore. Drop your bags at one of our nearby Stasher points and take the hill (and the history) in stride.
🎒 Getting Lost in Plaka Is Part of the Charm – But Not with Luggage: Plaka is Athens at its most charming: whitewashed houses, winding lanes, hidden cafés, and cats sunbathing on steps. But it’s also full of steep alleyways, uneven paving, and staircases that weren’t made for dragging anything behind you. Whether you’re shopping for souvenirs or grabbing lunch with a view of the Parthenon, ditching your bags first makes everything infinitely more enjoyable.
🎟️ Visiting the National Archaeological Museum – Without Queuing Twice: The National Archaeological Museum is one of the best in the world, but like many museums in Athens, it doesn’t allow large bags inside – and the cloakroom fills up fast. If you’re planning to visit before a flight or after check-out, don’t take the risk of being turned away or stuck in a line. Leave your luggage with Stasher nearby and enjoy the artefacts (not the baggage drama).
🛍️ Exploring Monastiraki Market Without Getting Stuck Between Stalls: Monastiraki is lively, messy, wonderful – and packed. Between the street performers, souvlaki stands, and tightly packed antique stalls, it’s easy to get lost in the chaos. But dragging a suitcase through it all? You’ll be knocking over fruit baskets and getting stuck behind slow walkers in seconds. There are Stasher points just around the corner, so you can stash your bags and join the flow like a local.
⚽ Cheering at Giorgos Karaiskakis Stadium Isn’t Exactly Bag-Friendly: Heading to see Olympiacos play at the legendary Giorgos Karaiskakis Stadium? Security is tight and large bags aren’t allowed – plus, the last thing you want is to be that person trying to wedge a backpack under a plastic seat. Store your gear near the metro or stadium entrance with Stasher and enjoy the match, worry-free.
🧭 Navigating Syntagma Square or Changing Hotels? Ditch the Drag: Syntagma Square is a central point for changing metros, meeting tours, and watching the Presidential Guard at the Hellenic Parliament. But it's also one of Athens' busiest areas, and wheeling luggage across the cobbles in the middle of a crowd isn’t the ideal welcome to the city. If you’re transferring accommodation or arriving from Athens Airport, it’s the perfect time to leave your bags behind with Stasher and take a moment to settle in – or even sneak in a freddo cappuccino.
With Stasher, you’re not just storing bags — you’re unlocking a smoother, lighter, and far more enjoyable experience of Athens.

Help! My Stashpoint is closed. What do I do now?
In that case, contact us at +44-20-3355-3544. We'll either liaise with the host for expedited opening, arrange nearby storage, or, if impossible, offer a refund for the inconvenience and potentially assist with necessary travel adjustments. For flights, prioritize not missing them as shipping bags is often cheaper than rebooking; always keep crucial travel documents with you. Note the Stashpoint's operating hours carefully; we may be limited in assistance for late arrivals, but will always strive to help.
Can I get a refund?
We know plans change so any booking can be cancelled up until the drop off window begins. To cancel your booking please log into your account, and under ‘My Bookings’ find the booking you’d like cancelled and refunded. We cannot refund bookings after the drop off time has elapsed unless in special circumstances, e.g. a delayed flight, or if you made a booking in error and have placed a new booking. In this case, please email [email protected] with documentation (e.g. screenshot of flight delay or new booking ID) and we will see what we can do.
Can I extend my booking / add more bags?
Certainly! We can’t do this for you as we do not store card details, so place another booking for the extra days/ bags and email us at [email protected] with your original and new booking IDs. We will then update the host of the extension / addition!
What payment methods do you accept?
Stasher accepts all major credit and debit cards, including Visa, MasterCard, and American Express, as well as payments through Apple Pay and Google Pay. All payments are secure and processed quickly.
How do I retrieve my luggage once I’ve stored it?
When you return to collect your luggage, simply present your Booking ID along with either the counterpart tag or a photo of your luggage. The host will then retrieve your bag from the secure storage area. We appreciate feedback, so if you had a good experience, please consider leaving us a review. It helps us monitor and support our hosts.
What happens if I don’t pick up my luggage on time?
No worries! We understand that plans change. The drop-off and pick-up times are just estimates. As long as your booking is within the duration you’ve paid for and the StashPoint is open, you won’t encounter any issues. If you arrive after the location has closed, please contact our support team. If you're unable to collect your luggage the next day, we can arrange shipping for you and provide the associated costs and options.
What is Stasher’s cancellation policy?
You can cancel your booking anytime before the scheduled drop-off time through your Stasher account under 'Bookings.' You’ll have two options: a 50% refund or 100% coupon for future bookings. If the drop-off time has already passed, refunds aren’t guaranteed, but you can still email [email protected], and our team will review your request.
Can I store valuable items (e.g., electronics, documents)?
Every bag booked through Stasher is covered by a guarantee of up to €1,100 against theft or damage while stored at our StashPoints. While we prioritize the safety of your luggage, we strongly advise against storing essential travel documents, keys, or valuable electronics such as phones. Please note that only bags booked directly through Stasher are covered by our guarantee. Paying cash directly to the StashPoint violates our terms and conditions, and we will not be able to cover such bookings. Additionally, our T&Cs prohibit the storage of certain items, including cash and securities.
Do I need to bring identification to store my luggage?
Yes, you’ll need to bring your proof of booking (a digital copy on your phone is fine), along with a valid photo ID to show the host, and, of course, your bags! Please follow the same process when returning to collect your luggage.
Can someone else pick up my luggage for me?
If someone else needs to pick up or drop off your luggage, please email [email protected] in advance so we can update the host. The new person will also need to present the booking confirmation number and a valid ID.
Can I pay in store?
No, all bookings must be made online through our website or app for security and guarantee purposes. The process is quick and mobile-friendly, taking just a minute to complete. Cash payments in-store are not accepted, and bookings made outside our platform are not covered by our guarantee.
What sort of items can I store with Stasher?
Our primary focus is on storing suitcases, but we can also accommodate bikes, sports equipment, and strollers. If you have a specific request, feel free to email us, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your needs!.
