About this place Electra Metropolis Athens

The Electra Metropolis is among Athens' finest hotels and one that has built a strong reputation for LGBTQ+ welcome. The property occupies a prime central location on Mitropoleos, within sight of the Athens Cathedral and a ten-minute walk from both the Acropolis and the Gazi district. The hotel's most celebrated feature is its rooftop pool and bar, which commands views of the Parthenon that are extraordinary by any standard — a combination that makes the Electra Metropolis popular with gay travellers who want luxury accommodation to match the luxury of the destination. Rooms are spacious and elegantly designed in a contemporary Greek style. The hotel's central location means that the entire city is navigable on foot: Gazi bars in one direction, the Acropolis Museum in another, the Monastiraki flea market on Sunday mornings. For same-sex couples celebrating a honeymoon or anniversary — newly meaningful in Greece following the 2024 marriage equality legislation — the Electra Metropolis provides the setting.

This is my absolute favorite hotel in the entire world! I’ve stayed there five times and each time my stay has been absolutely perfect! The rooms are incredible, the staff is fantastic, the breakfast is amazing and the views from the suite and the roof rooftop are out of this world! The pool is perfect for cooling down! The location is wonderful for sightseeing, and truly enjoying the atmosphere of the amazing city of Athens!

We just checked out after 8 days and from the moment we arrived at Electra Metropolis until the day we left, our stay was nothing short of exceptional. I was travelling solo with my baby, so choosing the right hotel was incredibly important, and the entire team made us feel so welcomed, cared for and at ease. A special thank you to George, who greeted and farewelled us so warmly and was always there to help, as well as the wonderful reception team, the housekeeping staff, and Illias, the F&B Director, who was so warm and kind and gave such a great energy up at the restaurant and ensured every breakfast was a fantastic experience. Every member of staff was genuinely kind, attentive, and friendly. It never felt forced—you could truly feel that they cared about their guests, which made all the difference. The location is absolutely perfect, within easy walking distance of Athens’ main attractions, shops, and restaurants. Our room was spacious, modern, immaculate, and very comfortable, making it ideal when travelling with a baby. Breakfast each morning was outstanding, with an incredible variety of high-quality food to suit every taste. The team even remembered my usual order, which was such a thoughtful touch. Enjoying breakfast with the spectacular views over Athens and the Acropolis was the perfect way to start each day. The rooftop pool is another wonderful feature—beautifully maintained, spotlessly clean, and the perfect place to relax after exploring the city. I cannot recommend Electra Metropolis highly enough. The combination of exceptional service, genuine hospitality, beautiful facilities, and an unbeatable location made this one of the best hotel experiences I’ve had. It will absolutely be my hotel of choice every time we visit Athens, and I can’t wait to return.
