Athens is a city steeped in history, where every street corner reveals archaeological treasures waiting to be discovered. Athens's digestible dimensions and diverse attractions mean that you can find yourself exploring ancient trails one moment and immersing in contemporary Greek art at a trendy gallery the next. It is rustic, yet pristine gritty, and alive. The entire city serves as a living museum, where the people, cuisine, art, and rich history seamlessly blend together to create an unforgettable tapestry of experiences. From sipping ouzo by the sea to embracing the laidback vibe of the Athens Riviera, the city offers a seamless transition between past and present.
GlobalSpa has curated a special mini guide for you to discover the treasures of Athens, in all its glory.
YOUR ACCOMMODATION
Athens is neither tiny nor easy to navigate. While the newer areas have a grid system, many of the ancient neighbourhoods are like mazes. There are certain neighbourhoods that you will want to stay in for nightlife, tourist attractions, or luxury hotels. If immersing yourself in the city's ancient history is a priority, you cannot go wrong with accommodations near the Acropolis.
