• What the hotel offers
  Offering an entirely NEW approach to young interior design, energetic hospitality, and seductive customer-centered services, NEW Hotel is the first ever hotel project of award winning designer duo, Fernando and Humberto Campana. YES! Hotels owner and international arts patron Dakis Joannou commissioned the Brazilian brothers for their eco-sensitive ethos and the use of contemporary handicraft practices and local idioms. Drawn to their specific language, which in turn draws from urban street life, contemporary art and the São Paulo favela culture, Joannou gave them absolute freedom to dream. The result is an intriguing 79-room establishment, where every public space and every floor has been creatively re-NEW-ed to include remnants of the former Olympic Palace Hotel. The interiors are simply outstanding, the unusual custom-made furniture and handmade fixtures making guests feel that they live and breathe in a major art installation. New Hotel is located on Filellinon Str. 16, 200 meters from Constitution Square and within walking distance from the city’s main attractions. Both leisure and business travelers will enjoy this enviable NEW hotel, right at the centre of Athens.
• Location
  About our Neighborhood: “If, as urban theorist Richard Florida noted, cities are the new countries, then we firmly believe that neighbourhoods are the new cities. After all, like cities, neighborhoods offer the excitement of being in the middle of something large and full of energy. But neighborhoods have the added bonus of providing local flavour and the feeling of community; thus, for the visitor, they also create a sense of identity and belonging.” Claus Sendlinger_CEO, Design Hotels One step out of NEW Hotel’s prestigious front door and Athens reveals itself. Plaka, the city’s oldest historic neighborhood, is but a stone’s throw away. A landscape of contradictions, where haughty neoclassical mansions co-exist with rundown buildings from the ’60 and 70s, Plaka’s vibe and colourful lifestyle are unparalleled.
• Accommodation
  All the guestrooms from the 1st to the 6th floor enjoy natural day light and are completely soundproof. With their floor to ceiling windows, and solid bamboo floors and tables, they are faithful to the Campana exploration of space.
• Food and Drink
  One bite is never enough! NEW TASTE is a culinary haven, with its welcoming ambience, fabulous seating, and simply excellent food. Enter the world of high design, with the Campana brothers showcasing their trademark approach at its very best. Inspired by their iconic Favela chair, ‘Favela’ columns are covered with intricately connected cut pieces of wooden furniture taken from the original hotel, at once forming a recycled artwork and paying their tribute to the past. ‘Tomato’ and ‘pixel’ chairs give a fresh breath of a deconstructed 21st century air while the emblematic golden bell-shaped lamps cast their extravagant glow. A bar-restaurant serving morning buffet breakfast, lunch, and à la carte dinner, NEW TASTE exalts the Mediterranean cuisine. The highly innovative menus, using local organic products and the finest and freshest produce, alternate from lunch sandwiches and salads to grills and Greek specialties to delicious dinner plates, always served with a smile. For those who cannot resist but are in a hurry to catch a plane or their next meeting, there are also take-away facilities. New Taste features an authentic Espresso Bar, serving the Napolitano Passalacqua coffee. Traditional breads and pastries baked daily are simply irresistible. Breakfast is served daily between 07h00 am and 10h30 am. For reservations, please contact : +30 210 3273170
