Radisson Blu Park Hotel, Athens

About Radisson Blu Park Hotel, Athens

Radisson Blu Park Hotel stands at 10 Alexandras Avenue, right across the street from Pedion tou Areos, one of the largest parks in Greece, with a network of strolling and jogging paths. The National Archaeological Museum is a short stroll away, and Victoria metro station is close by for trips into the historic centre. The hotel's own underground car park makes it a practical base if you are driving.

Rooms and suites

Standard Rooms (about 20 sq m) sleep two in twin, king or queen beds and face the interior, with the bathroom set behind a frosted glass door. Superior Rooms (about 25 sq m) look onto a calm street, take a third guest and add a Smart TV and a spacious work desk. Premium Rooms (about 27 sq m) come with a Nespresso machine and views over the city or Pedion tou Areos, and the Premium Acropolis View rooms add a welcome gift, so they suit couples who want that view from bed.

Family Rooms (about 40 sq m) are made for two adults and two children, with a king bedroom and a sofa bed in a separate living area plus two TVs. Suites have floor-to-ceiling windows, a king bed, an office and a living room with a 55 inch Smart TV, facing the park or the city, while the Suite Acropolis View (about 40 sq m) frames the Acropolis instead. At the top of the range, the Presidential Suite (about 60 sq m) on the 7th floor has a separate living area and a terrace with outdoor furniture over the city and the park.
