Life Gallery Athens

Very nice hotel Clean rooms

Far froom center

This hotel is a little off the beaten path but in one of the more upscale neighborhoods of Athens so, very green and beautiful. All the staff were fantastic (I wish I could remember each of their names). The gentleman that helps you with your bags and parking (I think his name was Pericles) was the fantastic. Housekeeping was wonderful and helpful. I wish I could remember his name also. The front desk staff was very thoughtful. I had to get up @ 4 a.m. to catch my flight and would have missed breakfast they made a wonderful care package for me to take @ checkout. It included a piece of fruit, a sandwich and 2 yummy cookies. Loved the different juices they had at reception each day. The pools were beautiful and modern but very cold so I didn't get to dip in them. I'm all about being eco-friendly and not using single use plastics and look for hotels that are conscious of that. They have an electric car charger which I thought was fantastic! If I'd known I would have rented an electric car. I loved how the bottle of water they have waiting in the room for you was a glass one and you can reuse it. They don't have recycling bins around the hotel, unfortunately, but you can give your bottles or cans to reception and they recycle it for you. I liked how you can hang up your towels/robes if you don't want them to change them out and this helps conserve water. The only thing I didn't like was that they didn't offer towels for the guests to take to the beach. This was the first hotel I've ever stayed at in Greece that didn't offer this. Everything in the room (shades, lights, exterior glass covering the balcony) was operable by remotes located next to the bed, on the wall by the balcony or on the wall as you entered the room. Some of them weren't working but the parts that I personally needed worked just fine.

We recently spent 3 nights at the Athens Life hotel. It is about a 30 min drive from central Athens and there are plenty of parking spaces right outside the hotel. We were given a warm welcome at Reception and our bags were taken to our room. The welcome note and marzipan were a lovely touch. Our room on the 3rd floor was large, clean and very well equipped. We found the low bed and surrounding ledge quite difficult to get in and out of, so do be mindful of this if you have a bad back etc. Some of the furniture/decor is a little tired, but it didn’t take anything away from our stay, especially given the reasonable price of the room. The air conditioning and WiFi were excellent. Our favourite part of the room was the balcony with stunning views over the mountains. We could have sat on it all day! We had a meal and cocktail in the restaurant, plus room service a couple of times and the food and service was fantastic. The hotel is incredibly peaceful and serene and definitely the place if you want to unwind. We barely saw any other guests our entire stay! A very enjoyable stay!

Very stylish hotel with everything to make it a fabulous stay. Beautifully designed room and gorgeous balcony overlooking a green and a mountainside backdrop And two swimming pools! Hard to believe we were in a suburb (a very nice one!) of a major city
