Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel, Athens

Dream

Split into three distinct areas across the property, rooms and bungalows are bathed in natural light with sophisticated décor complementing the picture-perfect views. The Nafsika rooms and suites all boast stunning sea vistas whilst Arion rooms and suites enjoy a location near to the hotel’s sumptuous spa. Bungalows and suites offer spacious accommodation with the added benefit of private outside space – guests can enjoy al fresco relaxation on their own terrace or in a private swimming pool, and the property’s speciality suites are ideal for groups and families, with separate living areas providing extra space for entertaining and relaxing.

Eat

Eight fabulous bars and restaurants introduce mouthwatering flavours from across the globe – zesty Latin American dishes, traditional Greek mezze, fresh seafood, authentic Italian cuisine and Mediterranean inspired fine dining offer guests an impressive variety of eating experiences. Pre-dinner drinks or after dinner nightcaps can be enjoyed in the hotel’s bars, which include the sea view Avra Bar with its world-class cocktail list and Aristotle’s cigar lounge, where rare cognacs and whiskeys accompany some of the world’s finest cigars.

Play

Three private beaches and a 300-metre boardwalk dotted with comfortable sun loungers encourages guests to relax and while away the day but, beyond the beach, a myriad of fun-filled watersports are on offer in the seductive waters of the Aegean Sea. A free-form family pool and sleek infinity pool also offer a refreshing haven from the heat. The hotel’s fitness centre, three tennis courts, a basketball court and jogging trails enables guests to keep fit whilst Glyfada Golf Club nearby is recommended for anyone hoping to play a round of golf.

Guests can explore the beautiful coastline of the Athenian Riviera on a powerboat or luxury cruiser, discover Athen’s famous landmarks on a guided tour or sample local specialities on olive oil and wine tasting tours.

Unwind

The Four Seasons Spa draws on centuries-old remedies to offer an exciting menu of treatments inspired by the teachings of Hippocrates in its ten elegant treatment rooms. A hydrotherapy zone with lap pool, aroma steam grotto, hammam, vitality pool, chill showers and relaxation lounge join a wellness studio where yoga and core training takes place. Couples can enjoy exclusive indulgence in the spa’s couple suite where an experience shower and private outdoor deck allow for private relaxation after the treatment.     

Family

The Kids for All Seasons program operates year-round offering a range of engaging activities for young visitors to enjoy whilst making new friends. Families can get sporty together playing tennis, football or basketball or take to the water with a variety of watersports available from the hotel’s private beaches. Family-friendly tours of Athen’s historic centre can bring the past to life and a visit to the nearby Sea Turtle Rescue Centre is a must for animal loving little ones.    

Romance

The spectacular surroundings of the Athens Riviera are made for romance. Exploring nearby islands on a motor yacht together guarantees a day to remember, stopping only to set foot on a secluded sandy beach or to eat at a traditional taverna. Back at the hotel, a private Couples Ritual at the sea-facing spa will relax and reinvigorate and an exclusive dinner together with sea and sunset views is the perfect way to end the day.
