experience and a calm and elegant hotel stay. All rooms feature premium
materials native to Greece.
Hotel guests benefit from a range of services, from free high-speed
internet access to a unique outdoor fitness center. Already making a mark as a
lifestyle destination, the hotel’s hip restaurant and bar area on the ground
floor invites the city into the hotel and focuses on fresh, sustainable
ingredients to create tasty Mediterranean and international dishes. The hotel
lobby and bar provide a trendy space for all types of art events and social
gatherings in the city.
“Our guests can expect an unparalleled experience of elegance and style
in the heart of Athens’ most exclusive area. Whether it’s culture,
entertainment, or shopping, our hotel is the perfect base for all that Athens
has to offer. The Social is not just a place to stay, it's a destination for
socializing and experiencing the vibrant Athenian culture”, says Eleni
Basmpani, Hotel Manager of The Social Athens Hotel, a member of Radisson
Individuals.
