Grecotel, the leading luxury hospitality group in Greece, celebrating 50 years of excellence, has released details of two high-end upgrades and the debut of a new property that further strengthen its position in the Greek capital & Riviera’s hospitality scene – an enhanced lifestyle programme at boutique hôtel-maison THE DOLLI at Acropolis in the historical city centre, a complete transformation of Cape Sounio on the Athens Riviera, and the launch of The Roc Club, a brand-new 34-room resort Club-Maison in Vouliagmeni, a unique city & seaside luxury stay, exclusively with Grecotel.
THE DOLLI at Acropolis
Historical Center, Athens
As a neoclassical mansion just steps away from the Acropolis, THE DOLLI positions itself as “a hotel to live®”. The 46 rooms, suites and pieds-à-terre are styled as private residences, many with uninterrupted Parthenon views. Rooftop highlights include an infinity pool, voted one of the world’s best by Condé Nast Traveller, and DOLLI·S Restaurant & Bar, with a 360° city panorama.
Interiors double as an art gallery, with works by Picasso, Cocteau, and ancient artefacts mixed with contemporary design pieces.
There are three exceptional dining outlets – DOLLI·S Rooftop Restaurant & Bar with Acropolis views, Le Salon, an art-inspired patisserie & café, and Le Bar Secret, an intimate speakeasy with rare books and fine spirits.
Guests can tailor their stay with experiences ranging from after-hours tours of the Acropolis Museum to Olympian-style fitness sessions in the Panathenaic Stadium, supported by the new Gymnasium equipped for immersive workouts.
THE DOLLI’s recent accolades include two MICHELIN Keys in the inaugural 2025 list, “Best Hotel in Greece” in the 2024 Condé Nast Traveller Readers’ Choice Awards and a Prix Versailles special exterior prize, underscoring its growing profile on the global luxury stage.
Cape Sounio
Athens Riviera
The iconic resort facing the legendary Temple of Poseidon has emerged from a property-wide renovation has elevated the entire guest experience “blending cosmopolitan elegance with Athenian Riviera glamour”.
Arriving guests now step into a redesigned lobby curated with statement art pieces, before moving on to a totally re-imagined pool deck where a new open-kitchen restaurant serves day-to-night Mediterranean menus, with refined dining all round, heartfelt service and bespoke experiences available.
Cape Sounio’s 400 m² revamped Spā introduces a holistic programme and a state-of-the-art gym, located within a pristine pine forest reserve and surrounded by ancient ruins, it has two private beaches on the onset of the Aegean Sea that underline the resort’s connection to nature.
THE ROC CLUB
Athens Riviera
Grecotel has also expanded its Athenian offering with THE ROC CLUB, a 34-room luxury resort Club-Maison in Vouliagmeni, the Riviera’s most sought-after suburb. Positioned on the edge of Lake Vouliagmeni and overlooking the new Astir Marina, the property is designed as a private “club and residence”, with every guestroom facing the water and capturing uninterrupted views of the peninsula and moored yachts.
Key facilities include a grey-marble raised overflow pool against lakeside rocks, a fully equipped gym and open-air yoga terraces.
A rooftop restaurant, mirroring the panoramic concept introduced at THE DOLLI, serves breakfast and all-day dining with views of the Riviera. Guests are within walking distance of Blue Flag beaches, watersports clubs, open-air cinemas and the designer boutiques now lining Astir Marina.
Service follows a high-touch, personalised model – aperitifs are timed to sunset over the skyline, concierge arranges yacht charters or day trips along the 40-kilometre coastal road to Cape Sounio, and transfers can be coordinated between THE ROC CLUB, THE DOLLI and Cape Sounio to create a three-property Athens & Riviera itinerary under one brand.
By adding a compact, design-forward address in Vouliagmeni, Grecotel now covers the capital’s key leisure axes – historic centre, Riviera beachfront and southern cape, offering trade partners the perfect portfolio for twin- or tri-centre programmes.
Strategic uplift
By enriching THE DOLLI, upgrading Cape Sounio and introducing THE ROC CLUB, Grecotel now fields three complementary Athenian flagships – an iconic, awarded boutique hôtel-maison, an exquisitely renovated resort facing the Temple of Poseidon and the Aegean sea, and a brand new, cosmopolitan boutique resort overlooking Vouliagmeni’s marina.
The investment positions the group to satisfy demand for sun-led leisure stays and culture-focused city breaks, giving trade partners a unified five-star portfolio for twin- or tri-centre itineraries within and around the capital.
