Shila Athene, a dream of a hotel

It's like walking around in a dreamy art house movie. Shila Athene is a dream of a boutique hotel within walking distance of the Acropolis. The interior is full of antique finds and special art. The six suites all have a different look, and names such as Garden Retreats, Attic Antique en Artist Atelier get a taste of the atmosphere right away. A weekend of pretending to be an extravagant 30s actress in a modernist art setting is perfectly possible here.

Fun fact: Shila is the beautiful sister of the equally beautiful Mona Athene, a hotel with a retro touch.

Shila Athene

The charming 20s house – full of authentic elements – has been transformed into a boutique hotel slash art space slash cool hub. At this location, in one of the coolest neighborhoods of Athens, Kolonaki, you are surrounded by restaurants, live music, art, fashion and nightlife.

Besides the beautiful suites, all equally beautiful, there is also an amazing rooftop garden and library lounge. Shila (and its sister Mona) are hotels you dream of going to.
