A sleek contemporary luxury hotel on Syngrou Avenue, offering spacious rooms, rooftop pool with Acropolis views, and the popular Sense restaurant. Convenient for both the city center and the coast.
Wyndham Grand Athens is located at Syngrou Avenue 126 in the Neos Kosmos district of Athens, approximately three kilometres south of Syntagma Square. The hotel opened in 2018 as part of Wyndham's premium Grand tier and occupies a striking contemporary building on one of the city's main arteries, the wide boulevard of Syngrou Avenue that connects central Athens to the coast and the Attica Riviera.
The 264 rooms and suites are furnished in a sleek, contemporary style with marble bathrooms and floor-to-ceiling windows. Upper-floor rooms offer views of the Acropolis to the north or the Saronic Gulf to the south depending on orientation. The rooftop outdoor pool and terrace is the hotel's signature amenity, offering 360-degree panoramic views including a direct northward sightline to the Acropolis — making it one of the most memorable rooftop pool experiences in Athens.
Sense Restaurant on the ground floor serves breakfast and dinner with a menu focused on Greek-Mediterranean cuisine using seasonal local produce. The rooftop bar serves cocktails and snacks alongside the pool in warmer months. A full spa and a dedicated fitness floor round out the wellness offering.
Syngrou Avenue provides reliable taxi and rideshare availability around the clock. The Syngrou-Fix metro station (Line 2) is approximately 800 metres north — two stops from Syntagma Square. The Faliron tram stop offers scenic coastal connections, and the Acropolis Museum and central Makrygianni neighbourhood are reachable by a short metro or taxi ride.
