The Hilton Athens, a 5 Star Luxury Hotel in the Athens Concert Hall area is by itself a landmark property in the city. When it was built in 1963 it stood out for its modernity. True to that spirit, the hotel was fully renovated prior to the Olympic Games in 2004. It offers a modern and stylish environment that suite the needs of both business and leisure travellers. The hotel features 524 spacious rooms (divided into standard, business, executive and suites), all with their own balcony (rather small in size, though). About 179 rooms have view of the Acropolis, the rest face Lycabettous Hill or Hymettos Mountain.

Each room features individual climate control, private bathroom with bath & separate shower suite, night lights, hairdryer, toiletries and bathrobe, office desk with two direct-dial telephone lines with modem, fax, ISDN, voice mail, laptop safe, coffee and tea making facilities, glowing light switches, cable TV, and mini bar. The executive and business class rooms enjoy in addition to the above amenities satellite channels, daily business newspaper, complimentary access to the health club, private reception area, private club room with Acropolis view where drinks and cocktails are served throughout the day. For those who want to experience the “extravaganza of Hilton Athens luxury” we recommend one of the 18 suites available that feature among other extras a Jacuzzi tub and a DVD player and of course access to the private reception area and the health club.
