St George Lycabettus Hotel
Understated urban lifestyle hotel with a warm, family-run atmosphere. Contemporary interiors with marble bathrooms, Coco-Mat bedding, and eclectic design touches. Art-forward corridors, a live gallery program, and a Fashion Floor styled by designers including Mary Katrantzou and Pierre Cardin give it genuine character beyond the views.
Book an Acropolis-facing room or suite on the 5th floor or higher — the view is dramatically different from the lower floors
Why It Matters
Winner of Best Rooftop View Hotel at the World Luxury Hotel Awards and the Ecopolis Award. Unobstructed Acropolis views from most rooms and suites, including all the way to the Saronic Gulf. The only hotel in Kolonaki with a rooftop pool open to the public. La Suite Lounge restaurant has been recognized for Best View in Europe.
Family-owned since 1974, the St. George Lycabettus is a 5-star lifestyle hotel sitting at the foot of Lycabettus Hill in Kolonaki, Athens' most upscale residential neighborhood. The 154-room hotel punches above its weight with sweeping Acropolis and city views from most floors, a rooftop pool on the 7th floor, and a dining scene that draws non-guests as well. Rooms are comfortable and well-appointed, though not dramatically large — the views are the real star.
