Located in the picturesque Athenian Riviera, Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel Athens will debut spring 2018.
Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts and Greek hospitality company Astir Palace Vouliagmeni S.A. announced plans to upgrade the existing Astir Palace and reopen as the first Four Seasons hotel in Greece.
Located 16 miles south of Athens and 15 miles from the Athens International Airport, along the pristine shoreline of the Aegean coast, the new luxury hotel will be accompanied on the peninsula by upscale retails and dining options including Matsuhisa Athens by Nobu; Astir Beach, a unique seaside concept; and Astir Marina.
“Astir Palace has always been a landmark destination of international stature, located in the Athenian Riviera, one of the most coveted areas in Greece,” said Stelios Koutsivitis, CEO, Astir Palace Vouliagmeni S.A. “We are strongly committed to embrace its legacy and elevate Astir Palace to a world-class premium destination. Our redevelopment plan includes the Hotel’s complete renovation, a significant upgrade of Astir Marina, the advancement of Astir Beach, the development of up to 13 high-end residences, and the creation of Peninsula Park.”
Allen Smith, president and CEO, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, adds, “The Hotel’s location offers a unique combination of seaside tranquility and easy accessibility to Athens city center, making it an ideal destination for leisure and business travelers year round.”
More than €100 million will be invested into property refurbishment. New features will include approximately 300 rooms, suites and luxury bungalows; a spa and recreational facilities; state-of-the-art conference and event spaces; infinity pools; beaches; a unique beachfront promenade; and more. Interior concepts, designed by Meyer Davis Studio, derive from the beauty of the surrounding environment and local culture.
