Apollo Palm offers guests a contemporary Athenian escape in vibrant Psyrri

Situated in the historic district of Psyrri near the ancient Agora of Athens, Apollo Palm is a haven for both local creatives and global travelers seeking an authentic Mediterranean experience. The hotel’s architecture pays homage to Greece’s maritime heritage.

The building features nautical curves and a soothing color palette that extends throughout its interior spaces. Apollo Palm is the debut project of Mariette Sans-Rival Studio that infused the hotel with emotions and stories, making it a lively and autonomous space. The studio used a calming white palette on walls and floors. The interior corridors were adorned with large stained-glass windows casting shadows. Brass light fixtures add a candle-like glow, fostering a tranquil atmosphere for nighttime repose. Each piece of furniture in Apollo Palm is a unique creation, crafted with care for the hotel’s identity. Soft lines and warm colors invite guests to be part of the story.

At the heart of Apollo Palm is a lush, tropical garden courtyard, featuring a majestic palm treeโ€”a serene space for guests to gather. The 48 guest rooms, flooded with natural light, feature subtle and elegant color palettes, evoking a sense of tranquility and relaxation. Public areas include a patio wine bar, a rooftop cocktail bar with stunning Acropolis views and the intimate Studio Olala music venue and sound bar. Apollo Palm invites guests to a unique travel experience that captures the spirit of contemporary Athens.
