Athens Life Gallery

A member of the Leading Small Hotels of the World, Design Hotels and Great Small Hotels of the World, this hotel is located in the sophisticated suburb of Ekali.

The hotel offers spacious, beautifully designed luxury accommodation, including 3 art studios of high aesthetic standards and 3 suites, designed to cover any of your needs. You will find modern architecture in a minimalist, airy building with glass surfaces, discreet swimming pools, Zen gardens, ethnic elements and outdoor verandas. All of these combine to blend in absolute harmony with nature. Cedars and pines surround the 2 opaque glass cubes, blending a sense of 1970s architecture, with a light, contemporary look. Through the innovative use of glass panelling, each room’s balcony functions as an atrium by reducing outside noise.

With its rotary opening mechanism, the window panelling invites natural light and contributes to optimal ventilation and protection from outdoor conditions. The communal areas with this feature are an extension of the interior closed spaces and have been built with the same materials.

The detailed furniture, various small objects and lighting are not merely decorative, but contribute to a bridge linking the man-made environment to nature. The lighting is especially sensuous.

Works by contemporary Greek artists grace every corner of the hotel.

All rooms are furnished with original permanent fixtures and designer-name furniture and objects, while you can control the lighting, enabling you to create the mood you desire. Each room is designed inside a single space. The beds are placed in the centre, facing the large opening, with a view of the balcony-atrium and the natural environment outdoors.

In the Wine Gallery restaurant’s comfortable and relaxing interior, the shapes, colours, sofas and the beauty of a small candle feed your senses as you wait to taste gastronomic delicacies. You can accompany your meal by choosing among the hotel’s extensive collection of 488 wines from all over the world. During the summer months, the restaurant area extends outdoors, offering superb al fresco dining.

The Pisco Sour Bar, in warm red tones, radiates life and rhythm. Sitting in a plush armchair, you can enjoy your drink or cocktail or, if you are in the mood for something different, a unique Chilean beverage is served here. Meanwhile, the bar’s DJ will explore the world of music, offering Cuban, Oriental, ethnic and South American sounds.
