Electra Palace Hotel

Amenity highlights: Guests have use of the spa facilities, comprising an indoor pool and jetted tub, sauna, steam bath, massage (surcharge), and fitness centre. The hotel’s restaurant serves Mediterranean dishes and looks out onto a small, walled garden planted with palms and geraniums. Athens’ balmy Mediterranean climate can be enjoyed with an outdoor drink, either in the walled garden, or on the roof terrace, with its panoramic city views.

Insider tip: Plaka, Athens’ oldest residential quarter, is packed with neo-classical buildings, erected after Greece won independence from the Turks in 1834. Though mainly designed by foreigners, they were intended to affirm the national identity and were inspired by ancient Greek design principles. After decades of neglect, rich Athenians and foreigners have began restoring them to their former splendour.
