Stylishly decorated—with red neon lights and exquisite leather furniture—Crowne Plaza undoubtedly belongs to the eponymous chain of worldwide fame. Situated in the heart of Athens, merely ten minutes from Acropolis, Plaka and Syntagma Square, the hotel makes both tourism and transportation incredibly easy. All rooms are well-decorated, and combine the merits of a high standard hotel with the personal touch and attention of a small business. Rooms are equipped with air conditioning, satellite TV and minibars. Not only does the hotel offer an array of dining options including the Ambrosia Restaurant offering Greek and international cuisine and the Nectar Bar offering a collection of snacks and drinks, but also possesses 14 renovated, high-tech convention rooms, making the Crowne Plaza as suited for business travel as it is for leisure. In the summer, the garden pool is available for complimentary use, allowing for a refreshing workout along the panoramic view of the gorgeous Lycabettus Hill.
