Overview
Athens is one of the world's oldest cities where the Acropolis rises above a sprawling metropolis of nearly 4 million people. Modern Athens buzzes with street art, independent restaurants, and rooftop bars that frame the Acropolis at every turn.
Marriott Bonvoy members can access the Westin Athens Astir Palace Beach Resort, while Hilton Honors members have the historic Hilton Athens with arguably the best Acropolis-view pool terrace of any major hotel in the city.
Piraeus Port connects to Mykonos, Santorini, and dozens of smaller islands by ferry — making Athens the ideal gateway to a Greek island-hopping itinerary. Shoulder season (April-May and September-October) offers near-perfect weather without the summer crowds.
