THE DOLLI
An historic neoclassical mansion beautifully reimagined as a boutique hotel, THE DOLLI offers arguably the best views of any hotel in Athens.
Take a dip in the rooftop infinity pool and it appears as if you’re swimming through the gleaming columns of the Parthenon itself. Of course it’s just an optical illusion, created by the reflection of Athena’s great temple, which hovers overhead on the crest of the Acropolis. The pool shares the rooftop with the hotel’s all-day bar and restaurant, plus a poolside lounge for relaxing post-dip. The entire space offers soul-stirring views of the Acropolis and Parthenon that are virtually unequalled – even more so at night with the Acropolis lit up in front of you.
Five floors below is Plaka, the historic heart of Athens, meaning all the major sights are within walking distance of the hotel lobby. In between are 46 rooms, suites and apartments, all with creamy colour schemes, swanky marble bathrooms, custom-made wooden bars, high ceilings and enormous windows, though only higher categories have Acropolis views.
