Stellar! It doesn't get any better than this. Four Seasons Astir Palace is GORGEOUS in every respect and brand new. You know you're experiencing someplace incredibly special when words like "excellent", "impeccable," "superb," and "perfect" still fall short of describing how great you feel about the experience. Four Seasons Astir Palace is truly a marvel of pampering comfort, luxury, breathtaking views, sunsets, pools, and delicious first-class dining. But it's the unbelievably attentive, engaged and caring management and staff who make this hotel come alive! They deliver a five-star experience like no other. The service is outstanding. The spa is other worldly. No surprise it was voted the best spa in Europe, and the hotel has won so many awards. We would like to thank everyone at Four Seasons Astir Palace for making our stay wonderful and unforgettable. For us, there is no place else to stay in Athens. Four Seasons Astir Palace will forever be our base for exploring the rest Greece has to offer. They make everything so seamless, and easy. Want to go to Santorini, Mykonos, elsewhere - no problem, they handle everything. Want to experience local bars in the city off the beaten path? Need something from the kitchen an hour after breakfast has closed. Wishes granted. We love the personal contact and attention to the smallest details. The concierge team is the best anywhere. It feels like our private sanctuary, and although we know we are not the only guests (the hotel is full and still peaceful), it feels to us as though we have been the most important ones. A very special place with an amazingly open, generous and hospitable team. Cannot wait to come back. (Footnote: I don't know why TripAdvisor is showing photos of an old Westin. Four Seasons Astir Palace looks nothing like that.)

Nothing was too much for the team here. It was a perfect stay. Great spa and facilities. PELAGOS was exceptional. So was the spa. March was of course not hot so no pool time but it was still lovely. Lively walks and a great Japanese NOBU restaurant also on the property.

The Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel Athens is a luxury destination on the Athens Riviera. The hotel's design, amenities, and staff provide guests with an experience of elegance and sophistication. The lobby is spacious and decorated with an art collection by famous Greek artists. Guest rooms offer stunning views of the Saronic Gulf and modern amenities. The hotel features a private beach, Avra Lounge bar, and dining options, including Pelagos, an award-winning Michelin star restaurant. The Mercato, an upscale Italian trattoria, is another dining option at the hotel. Offering authentic Italian dishes and cocktails, both inside and on the terrace overlooking the Athenian Riviera, and the Sunday brunch here is a must-try. The spa offers various treatments and services, including a sauna, steam room, and fitness center. The staff is highly professional and approachable, providing guests with exceptional service and hospitality. The hotel is perfect for a relaxing Mediterranean getaway or a short bleisure trip in Athens.

My expectation for Astir Palace was super high. I had a 5D4N stay, in February. I was of course aware of the fact that travelling in February to a "summer destination" would mean that certain services and parts of the experience would be lacking. However this place did have quite a lot of issues, some which would clearly also be relevant during summer season. The positives - there were many. All elements of staff were super kind, very professional and treated me great. In principle, this is perhaps the most important parameter. Genuinely nice people doing their things. So that was great. The renovation of the two buildings seemed very nice. AC/Heating worked perfectly. The room interior was nice, not over the top exclusive, but for Greece it was nice. The furniture was a bit on the low end side and the fittings etc. were obviously done on some sort of budget (Compared to say, FS:Florence) and it came off as a very standard, but clean and modern moderate 5 star property. The layout of the beach / outdoor area was nice, and there was quite a lot of ocean front. The views would be good from any room in the Nifsikas building. The restaurant venues were nicely decorated except for the faux wood flooring which was already super worn and messed up, but all other elements looked crisp and on par with what you'd expect at a 300+ key FS resort in Southern Europe. Room elements such as automation, Tablet interface (and various services) were all quite nicely done, and you could do more or less everything on the tablet, including ordering complimentary water (which is a big deal in that climate), so that was great. Room cleaning was done nicely and expedited when I was there. There was never any waits or delays using the various facilities. I also visited the indoor SPA area, which is in the Arion building. It was quite obvious that a lot of money and time went into that area, and the SPA, Indoor pool and change areas were quite nice. The Sauna and Hammam areas were also done super nicely (Aroma room and shared Hammam was cold for some reason, but nice and toasty in the mens changing room area, weird). Staff was as always very kind and gracious. Now for the not so positive... First of all, upon arrival I was assigned one of the ground floor rooms in the Nifsikas building. There are a lot of design elements and limitations at this resort which are glossed over in the website and photo representations of the facilities. The room I was assigned was deep in the cavernous building. This means, no natural light at all. In fact, the room does not even have a door into a hallway. The rear of the room is simply carved out of the mountain. That means that your "door" into the room is in fact the front window pane towards the garden area. This also means that whenever someone enters or rings the bell, they are accessing the room thru the front window area (which opens to half the width of the room). This also means that you are going outside, and then walking half the length of the hotel, before reentering the building. It's the most preposterous design I have ever seen. Also, the balcony overhang from the apartment above is quite deep, so it's dark - like a cave. Why someone decided to issue that room, in a maybe - generously 20% room occupancy situation - to a client of nearly 20 years, is beyond me. No one should accept this. So at this point, I'm wondering - what's going on? Well, what's going on, is that we are in off season - as in total hibernation mode. The Arion building (minus SPA) is CLOSED. The restaurants minus the buffet/breakfast area of maybe 50 seats, are CLOSED. The outdoor pools are open - but someone decided to save on the heating, so they are a tingling 8 centigrade. Not only are the outdoor bars and restaurants closed, but they are used as storage areas, with piles of furniture and dirt everywhere. No one is sweeping or cleaning the outdoor areas by the pools / sea at all. Some guests have grabbed a few chairs and moved them into the sun, but you'll find used towels, trash and leftover coffee cups all around the outdoor areas. The cabanas are emptied out and coverings as well as appliances are removed. The cabanas by the Villas still have sun lounges, but they are dirty and no towels, attendants or anything is visible. The restrooms by the pool/beach area are locked or open - and not cleaned (no tp, urine everywhere for the length of our stay). The right way of doing it would obviously to not use outdoor and bar/restaurant areas for storage. To open up maybe a small coffee bar outside with some blankets and chairs. Maybe a staff member to go thru basic outdoors cleaning. Have some outdoor space heaters set up. Some tables, chairs, some mattresses on the sunbeds, etc. Just try… Just a little bit. Maybe just warm up ONE of the pools. Have a plan basically… or just shut down entirely for winter and give up. Anyway, it quickly became apparent on day two (after graciously being moved to a cheaper room, with a hallway to the hotel) that the few people actually at the hotel were there for a party Friday night. Oh, and Saturday night as well. The “fabulous room” I was moved to was adjacent to the party venue - music subsided around 01:30 at which point I was able to sleep. The next day I was offered to move rooms again - but honestly, at this point I had given up on this place. Other oddities included very mixed F&B experiences. The breakfast venue staff was super nice and very attentive. The food itself was mediocre at best. Compared to the spread at places like FS:Florence, FS:Park Lane, and FS: Geneve… It was abysmal. The bread was in general dry and brittle, the croissants were with no taste really, the eggs were fine and the bacon was mediocre half raw half burned things. The fresh OJ was good. The fruit was good, but selection was narrow to say the least, and on one day the Orange melon tasted of whatever on the chef’s knife prior to cutting it - ew. Room Service ranged from excellent to catastrophic. Best was the italian wood fired Pizza. Worst, was the replacement pre-fabricated Pizza that was reheated by whomever was at work - it certainly was not a cook. It was that hit or miss. I had one item that arrived in 15 mins perfect, and I had a dinner that took a full 90 minutes + redo time of missing stuff afterwards. With 20% occupancy. I can’t even imagine how that would run during summer with a full house. In general - there are things prospect visitors should be aware of. This is glossed over to some extent on the website. The hotel consists of two buildings. Nafsika is the “grander” of the two. Where the main reception is located and the best views had. This building is located with a due north view. It has zero - and I mean zero - sunlight on the balconies. The rooms are listed as 44m2 - I measured mine at 9.5m x 3.6m (iPhone tape measure is awesome) because It just didn’t add up. Its significantly smaller than 44m2 - and the problem is not so much the length of the room but the width. The opulent (!) furnishings dwarfs the room and make it seem even smaller. All the rooms are identical, and “suites” are just two regular rooms with a door in-between. This limits the layout, and combined with the building being very poorly sound insulated (they tried!, very thick carpets and doors) even the tiniest noise from neighbours sounds massive inside the rooms. The old building is from I believe the late 50’s or early 1960’s. This shows in more ways than noise and room size. The ceiling height is low - as in I could touch the ceiling at it’s highest point (I’m 6ft). This combined with the north facing view and long narrow rooms makes it all very cavernous. If I was to visit again, I would perhaps give the Arion building a try. Even though it is obviously the “cheaper choice” of the two, they seem to have actual south facing rooms with sunlight - but of course no view in that case. They are listed at 40m2 - and it’s the same measuring technique as Nafsika, I’d be worried about that though. Altogether, I’d say - it’s not horrible. It’s a nice place. Is it worth going? I mean, if you have business in Athens, it’s absolutely your best bet. Just be ready to go thru the motions of working for getting a working product. I was given a crisp 10% discount on my folio for a missed nights sleep, and I also got my 32 euro pre-fab pizza comped, so there is that. Honestly, the service recovery was not bad, but I sort of prefer not having to find out how service recovery works because everything just works. As for expectations in general, I have stayed at a double digit amount (each) of FS, Aman, Capella and RC properties, and this one fell short. I’m sure if your expectations are lower, you’ll like it just fine. I probably won’t be back. Out of respect for the 4S organisation I'll refrain from posting food photos and photos of neglected common areas.

The place is not only a hotel but an impressive complex which comprises three hotel/bungalow areas in a beautiful landscape - it is possible to walk along the sea from each area reaching the Astor beach which is a separate beach outside the complex, but one of the best in Athens. The hotel itself has small beaches - although I stayed in November after the hotel outdoor facilities were closed, it was still possible to relax at the swimming pool (heated) - towels were provided. Alternatively the spa with its sea views was one of the best indoor pool views I have ever experienced. Room had a large terrace, also with amazing sea view. I would definitely go back out of season.

We love this Four Seasons Location in Athens. It is the most perfect execution of the true painless, worry-free, hospitable Four Season culture and experience which was started as a revolution in the hospitality business. Phillipe as the General Manager leads a great team delivering what I consider the best Four Seasons experience in the world. The team here is so attentive and responsive and also observant as the original Four Seasons concept was designed to be. We already planned our fourth stay at the Athens location and we are heading back there in a few days. We travel the world and we use the four seasons (with the exception of a couple of unfriendly locations) as our home away from home.
