Athens

Attica – The vibrant heart of ancient Greece and modern luxury

Attica is the region home to Athens, the nerve center of Western civilization. This is a place where antiquity coexists with modernity, offering experiences ranging from exploring the Acropolis to relaxing on the chic beaches of the Athenian Riviera. Choosing a historic luxury hotel or a boutique hotel here means immersing yourself in a thousand-year-old history with all contemporary comforts.

Athens: Cradle of Democracy and Art

A visit must start with the Acropolis. We recommend going early in the morning to avoid the heat and admire the Parthenon in the best light. Afterwards, stroll through the historic neighborhood of Plaka, and then delve into world-famous museums like the Acropolis Museum. A great experience is combining a guided tour of the National Archaeological Museum with a traditional lunch in Monastiraki.

The Athenian Riviera: Chic Beaches and Nightlife

Attica is not just history; it is also the sea. The Athenian Riviera stretches along the coast, from Faliro to Sounio, offering exclusive seaside resorts and refined restaurants. The experience of an evening drink at sunset at the Temple of Poseidon in Sounio is unmissable: the ruins turning pink and orange are a magical spectacle.

Vouliagmeni Lake: a natural thermal lake, a unique wellness experience.
Astir Beach: one of the most luxurious and well-equipped beaches.
Glyfada: known for shopping and trendy venues.

Gastronomy: Flavors of Attica

Athenian cuisine is a mix of tradition and modern influences. Don't miss the Moussaka and Souvlaki, but also the more sophisticated offerings in Michelin-starred restaurants. For a high-level gourmet experience, try one of the Michelin-starred restaurants in central Athens like Spondi (2 stars) or Botrini’s (1 star).

Top 3 Starred Restaurants: Spondi (2 stars), Botrini’s (1 star), Hytra (1 star).
Top 3 Restaurants (Real Experience): Varoulko Seaside (Piraeus, for fresh seafood with a sea view), To Karavi (Sounio, after visiting the temple), Tzitzikas kai Mermigas (traditional flavor at accessible prices).

Experiences and Charming Hotels

Staying in Attica is a luxury experience. Many of the best luxury hotels offer direct views of the Parthenon or private access to the most exclusive beaches.

Top 5 Luxury/Historic Hotels:
1. Grand Bretagne, a Luxury Collection Hotel (Athens, historic icon with Acropolis view).
2. Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel Athens (Athenian Riviera, modern luxury in a dream location).
3. King George, a Luxury Collection Hotel (Athens, neoclassical elegance and central location).
4. Hotel Grande Bretagne (Athens, impeccable service and history).
5. Electra Palace Athens (Plaka, Acropolis view and rooftop pool).
Curiosity: It is said that the name of the city of Athens derives from the goddess Athena, who gave a sacred olive tree to the city during a competition against Poseidon.
