About the Hotel
Royal Olympic Hotel Athens is a family run five star hotel in one of the best spots in the historic center. It stands in front of the Temple of Zeus and the National Garden, under the Acropolis and a short walk from the Acropolis Museum.
The hotel has a classic Athens character. Its room types include executive rooms, deluxe rooms, Athenian panorama rooms, and suites, so it works for short stays, longer city visits, families and work trips.
One of the best parts of the hotel is its Restaurant & Bars scene, set around the hotel’s Roof Garden and pool areas. Breakfast takes place at the roof garden with views of Athens and its major monuments, while dinner has a focus on upscale Greek cuisine and fresh Mediterranean products.
The main restaurant is Ioannis Restaurant, the hotel’s gourmet restaurant. Its menu pairs old Greek recipes with a modern style, and the setting gives guests views of the Temple of Zeus, the Acropolis, the National Garden, the Marble Stadium, Hadrian’s Arch, Lycabettus Hill, Parliament, the Old Observatory and the Herodion Theatre.
For drinks with the same rooftop view, Ioannis Bar is open all year round from 17:00 to 01:00. Guests can have homemade snacks, sweets, wines and spirits in a calm roof garden space above the city.
Inside the hotel, the Lounge Bar looks toward the pool garden and works well for a cocktail, a glass of wine, a beer or a coffee. Its library bar and chic style make it a quiet place for a break after time in the center.
By the pool, the Pool Bar gives guests an easy place for cocktails away from the city noise. It adds a resort feel to the hotel, even though the location stays close to the main historic sites of Athens.
The hotel also has useful facilities for both leisure and work. Guests have access to a gym, a seasonal outdoor pool, a library, a business center, event spaces, conference rooms for meetings and events, bars, a restaurant and a terrace.
The location is a major reason to stay here. From the hotel, guests can reach the Acropolis area, the Acropolis Museum, Plaka, Syntagma, the National Garden and the city’s main historic sites with ease. After a day in Athens, your transfer brings you back to the entrance without extra effort.
