Coco-Mat Athens Jumelle

Top choice in Athens


Coco-Mat, the luxury mattress and bedding company that has branched out into hotels, has another winner on its hands with this property. It cleverly combines a neoclassical mansion with a modern block, linked by a corridor with a cascading wall of water. There's a gorgeous wooden staircase and rooftop terrace for breakfast. The entrance is on Irodotou.

Look for the ancient well on view through glass floor panels in the lobby.
