Accomodation - Daphne & Thomas Wedding

Below you’ll find a list of the most popular places on the Athenian Riviera (from north to south) that should be on your radar when choosing your hotel. Here are some hotels we suggest you to check out.

Glyfada has rightfully earned a reputation of being one of the most elegant and upscale suburbs of Athens. Dubbed as “Athens’ own Miami”, Glyfada features a wide range of charming cafes, boutique shops, and chic restaurants lined along with the palm trees of the seafront streets.Here you’ll find vivid nightlife with beach bars, nightclubs, and cocktail bars staying open until the first rays of sunlight during summertime.Glyfada is also home to several beautiful beaches such as Asteras beach with pristine sands and aquamarine waters, combining sunny coasts with a vibrant gastronomy and nightlife scene.

Further down along the coastline, Vouliagmeni and Varkiza occupy the two sides of a very small peninsula that is home to some of the most magnificent beaches of the Athenian riviera; most notably Vouliagmeni beach, Astir beach, Kavouri beach, and Varkiza beach.Naturally, both these areas are home to some of the most luxurious hotels on the Athens Riviera as well as fancy restaurants, ice cream shops, seaside cafes, and watersports centers.

At the end of the Athens Riviera and the edge of the peninsula, you’ll find Cape Sounion; probably the most famous spot on the coastline.Home to the stunning Temple of Poseidon, the Sounion National Park, and a number of immaculate beaches, this is an excellent choice for laid-back beach holidays and romantic getaways.

The best place to stay in Athens is near the Acropolis in the Plaka or Anafiotika neighborhoods. This will put you in the center of the action and within walking distance of the Acropolis, Roman Agora, Library of Hadrian, and Syntagma Square. Both neighborhoods are picturesque and quaint, with narrow pedestrian-only streets, many restaurants, and interesting shops.
