The Westin Athens Astir palace beach resort & Arion resort & spa

Our unbiased review

Let’s be clear about this before getting involved with anything else. Athens Astir palace beach resort is made up of three different sections, the first is The Westin Athens Astir Palace Beach Resort, the second is the Arion resort & Spa and finally, there is The W Aphrodite Astir Palace Athens Resort which will open sometime in 2009.  Each individual resort is found occupying the end of an exclusive peninsula in the chic area of Vouliagmeni on the south coast of Athens city.

Luxury Athens hotels unbiased reviews from the Greek-advisor.com

Being outside of Athens city center, those wanting to see the sights during their stay will have to do so either by taxi or by hiring a car. The latter option would also benefit anyone who prefers to explore and eat at a variety of restaurants, as Athens Astir Palace beach resort complex is a little removed from any large towns.

This aside, it is next to one of the most exclusive beaches in the southern suburbs of Athens city and it does have a choice of bars and restaurants nearby, all of which are superb but also expensive for a city known for its quality food at affordable prices.  Views over the sea and the marina are excellent and a stroll around the area at dusk is especially enjoyable.

Luxury Athens hotels local knowledge from the Greek-advisor.com

A wide variety of room choices are available at the resort, all of which are modern in style and attractively furnished.  The Grand Deluxe rooms at The Westin Athens Astir palace beach resort are a little small, but the Presidential Suite makes up for this by having not only the biggest bed you have seen, but also a huge living room with a wall-length window offering a panoramic view.  If it’s with your budget, it would make a honeymoon you would never forget.

Those not wishing to leave the Athens Astir palace beach resort to eat have a choice of seven different restaurants and bars, ranging from the Blue Hydra which serves Greek dishes while overlooking the sea and the Kymata which specialises in Mediterranean cuisine to Taverna 37 – the Astir’s take on the traditional Greek taverna.

Luxury Athens hotels the Greek-advisor.com your luxury expert

The Astir, whichever part you choose, makes a pleasing contrast to that of a city hotel.  You can work on your tan by a beautiful beach (especially helpful if your holiday takes in an island too), be far enough away to escape the noise of the city, but close enough to make a small journey to enjoy the sights.  The Astir’s exclusivity also means you will join a rather impressive previous guest list and once you have spent time there, it’s easy to see why.
