“This property stands out with its WWII bunker, now open to the public, plus an engaged owner who can point you to the best local dining; the art-inspired decor adds character beyond the standard hotel room. Its location puts you at the heart of Athens, and the interiors remain surprisingly quiet. Expect a unique, personalized breakfast to start your day.”
