About the property

This eight-storey building is located on the very central and highly frequented Solonos street, just 3 blocks away from the lively Exarcheia square. The property is at a walking distance of 8 minutes from Omonoia square and 8 minutes from the University of Athens. The Law School of Athens is located on Solonos Str., while the street passes through a short distance from the historical buildings of the Athens Academy, the National Library and the National University of Athens.

The area has significant commercial activity with many bars, restaurants and cafés, but also publishing houses, bookshops, bank and public administration offices, clothing and footwear firm’s retail stores as well as a range of small-scale retail selling everyday consumer products. In line with this, the property has a ground floor store, in front of which there is a roofed passage.

Nestled in the heart of the Athens historic city center, on the prime Aiolou pedestrian avenue, this building is just a few hundred meters from the main shopping street of Ermou, and a short walk from key historic sites, the Greek Parliament and Syntagma Square.

In the surrounding area, dozens of trendy cafes, local tavernas, and shops combine old and new worlds, delighting the millions of tourists drawn to the city every year to visit one of the greatest symbols of Greek history – the Acropolis.

The 1,500 sqm building is characterized by classic lines, with broad windows that flood the interior with natural light. This development will convert the building into a modern urban hotel, with around 30 stylish, vibrant guest rooms, and a rooftop with a breath-taking, panoramic view of the Parthenon.
