NEW Hotel Athens Review | An Artsy Oasis

Nestled close to the historic charm of Plaka, NEW Hotel Athens transcends the expected five-star experience. Rather than sterile grandeur, it offers a vibrant canvas of contemporary art, curated comfort, and tailored service.

So, step through the doors and marvel at a design-forward haven. It’s where every corner is a feast for the senses, bursting with bold colors, and locally sourced materials.

Then, enjoy culinary delights at the acclaimed NEW Taste restaurant. Unwind in the rooftop bar with stunning views of the Acropolis, or relax in your stylish haven. At the NEW Hotel, every detail promises a memorable stay.

Artfully Appointed Accommodations

NEW Hotel is a member of Design Hotels GmbH. That said, Fernando and Umberto Campana’s design team lends each room a distinct character.

My stays in both the studio and superior room revealed careful attention to detail. You can see from the plush robes to the natural bath amenities. You’ll find it in the whimsical living art installations disguised as chairs and lamps.

Thus, forget the impersonal sterility of traditional hotels. At the NEW Hotel, your room is a personal sanctuary, reflecting both artistic expression and attention to comfort. Beyond the haven of your room, the communal spaces at NEW Hotel continue the artistic journey.

While a usual lobby may be absent, the common areas pulsate with character. The NEW Taste restaurant’s cozy corner ensconces guests in plush sofas. Meanwhile, the 7th-floor Art Lounge doubles as a bibliophile’s haven. On top of it all, there’s an al fresco sanctuary boasting dreamy cityscapes.

Gastronomic Delights

Art doesn’t merely adorn the walls at NEW Hotel; it infuses the essence of your dining experience. Step into the Art Lounge, a vibrant canvas where culinary creativity dances with Greek tradition.

Standout dishes like the lentil salad, bursting with color and freshness, transport you to a sun-drenched Aegean island. Indulge in the grilled octopus, perfectly paired with creamy Santorini fava, celebrating local ingredients and flavors. Then, savor the melt-in-your-mouth ribeye special, a testament to the hotel’s commitment to culinary excellence.

To heighten the artistic journey, explore the thoughtfully curated wine list. It features a symphony of local varietals that perfectly complement each dish. At the NEW Hotel, dining is an immersive experience where art and taste buds unite perfectly.
