ATHENA PALLAS, ATHENS
What’s in a name? Athena. Goddess of wisdom & craft, patron of the city that carries her name. Perfectly placed in the most storied quartier of Athens, ATHENA Pallas sits on the storied Athinas Street — laid out in the 19th century by the legendary architects Kleanthis and Schaubert, who traced a direct line from the Temple of Athena, on the Acropolis, to map the first street of modern Athens. Fifty-six luxury hotel bedrooms and suites blend old world feel with artistic bohemia, they suit every need from spontaneous stays to longer Athenian sojourns.

ART, DESIGN & THE STORY OF ATHENA
At Athena Pallas, every artwork is individually chosen and every piece of furniture made for its place. Some are personal favourites; others are quiet nods to the city’s history, such as marble from the quarries of Dionysos, the stone the Acropolis was mastered from. The result is a conversation across generations, between ancient Athens and its contemporary spirit today which continuously puts it on the map.
CAFÉ & DINE
Inspired by old Athenian “café culture” which took from the long tradition of French bistro dining, Café Rue d’Athènes is located on the street level terrace offering all the neighborhood staples: light menus, pastries, aperitivo classics as well as beloved negronis, vermouths & homemade ice cream.
