Private Transfers to Amalia Hotel Athens from Airport & Ports

Amalia Hotel Athens in Syntagma Square.

Amalia Hotel Athens sits on Amalias Avenue, beside Syntagma Square and opposite the National Garden, in one of the easiest parts of Athens for both sightseeing and business. The Parliament, Ermou Street, Plaka and the Acropolis are all close, and Syntagma metro, tram and airport bus connections are nearby. It is a practical base for a short city break, a work trip, a conference or a night in Athens before catching a ferry.

Arrival in this part of the city can still feel tiring when you have luggage, children, a late flight or a ferry schedule to match. A private transfer keeps it simple. Your driver meets you at the airport or port, helps with your bags and takes you directly to the hotel entrance on Amalias Avenue.
