Athenaeum Smart Hotel

Overview

Fancy a city break that’s a bit more boujee than basic? The 4-star Athenaeum Smart Hotel in Athens is your ticket to some epic jollies, perfectly placed for diving headfirst into ancient history and modern Greek vibes. It’s got that confident, laidback feel, making it a cracking base for explorers who love a bit of comfort after a day of sightseeing.

Location

Slap bang in the heart of Athens’ Neos Kosmos, you’re just a hop, skip, and a 5-minute drive from the gorg Acropolis Museum and the mighty Temple of Olympian Zeus. The iconic Acropolis is a mere 3km away, and if you fancy a spot of retail therapy or a cheeky haggle, Monastiraki Flea Market is only 4km from your doorstep. Getting here is a breeze too, with Athens International Airport (ATH) about a 30-40 minute drive away.

Rooms

After all that exploring, you'll be chuffed to crash in one of the 53 air-conditioned rooms, each rocking a flat-screen TV and complimentary Wi-Fi to keep you connected (or just scrolling through your holiday snaps). You'll find showers, free toiletries, and a hairdryer in the bathroom, plus a laptop-compatible safe and even free international calls – mega for bragging to your mates back home!

Food & Drink

Fuel up for your Athenian adventures with a delish buffet breakfast each morning (for a small fee, mind) in the hotel’s restaurant, or grab a quick bite at the coffee shop/cafe. When the sun sets, head to the bar/lounge for a well-deserved tipple, or if you’re feeling extra laidback, room service is on hand for those chill-out evenings.

Sports & Entertainment

While there’s no whopping waterpark here (you're in the city, mate!), you can still treat yourself to some onsite massages to soothe those tired explorer muscles after a day of pounding the ancient pavements. Plus, with complimentary Wi-Fi throughout and handy concierge services, you’ll have everything you need to plan your next Athenian escapade or just kick back and relax.
