Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel Athens

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Exceptional Resort on the Athenian Riviera Four Seasons Astir Palace is, in my view, the best resort in Europe. I’ve been visiting since 2010, and it never disappoints. Service is warm and highly professional. The restaurants are excellent, and the sports and wellness facilities are among the best I’ve experienced. With a top-tier gym, water sports, cycling, and stunning natural surroundings, it’s ideal for an active holiday. The mix of crystal-clear sea, pine forests, and elegant design creates a unique atmosphere—often praised by other guests and reviewers. (Travel + Leisure) The only drawback is the price. It’s a true luxury destination and comes at a premium. Even so, it remains my favorite resort in Europe, and after more than 15 years, I recommend it without hesitation.

Wonderful stay!

The staff are attentive and remember guests by name, and the hotel offers a nice view. However, the overall experience was not smooth. The room, although advertised as 45 m², felt much smaller. The first room lacked basic seating and space for luggage; the second was better with a table and two chairs, but still odd setting for a luxury hotel. The outdoor pool was closed, and the spa and indoor pool were in a separate building, making it uncomfortable to access in January coldness. The indoor pool also had a sewage liked smell at 11am. Food was overly exotic to justify the high price, but losing its original taste.
