The Ilisian Launches in Spring 2026: A New Destination for Athenians and International Travellers to Meet, Connect & Experience Modern Athens

Opening in Spring 2026, The Ilisian introduces a new destination for the Greek capital.

Rooted in the Ilisia neighbourhood and shaped by the city’s relationship with art, architecture and community, The Ilisian brings together a hotel, branded residences, a members’ club, a significant wellness offering and a collection of dining and social spaces that invite Athenians and international travellers to meet, connect and experience Authentic Modern Athens. Its setting, within walking distance of major museums, ancient sites and contemporary neighbourhoods, places it at the natural crossroads of old and new Athens.
