Athens Retro Hotel

A historic retreat in the heart of Monastiraki

Located on 11 Vyssis Street — famously known as “the street of doorknobs” — Athens Retro opens its doors to offer a unique hospitality experience with retro charm and vintage aesthetics.
Housed in a building designed by renowned architect Mr. Kiprianos Biris and constructed between 1940 and 1970, the space carries a rich history. Formerly a hardware and sanitary ware shop, it has been thoughtfully transformed into a boutique hotel under the architectural direction of Nancy Papazoi.
