This December, NEW Hotel is redefining festive cheer in the heart of Athens. This design-driven hotel is transforming into the ultimate holiday destination, offering more than just a traditional festive experience.
NEW Hotel invites us to a universe that combines aesthetics, gastronomy, and a unique atmosphere against the backdrop of the festive Athens vibe. Every space in the hotel is transformed into a festive scene. The Art Lounge, on the 7th floor of the hotel, remains the living application of the aesthetic vision of the top design duo Estudio Campana, while during this period it hosts the exhibition “Contemporary Artists at NEW Museum Hotel” featuring works by Greek creators. The renovated Lobby Bar, on the ground floor next to the lobby, is a true “urban oasis” with dynamic floral patterns and an earthy color palette that brings a touch of chic naturalism to the center of Athens.
Especially for the nights of Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve, executive chef Babis Kountouris has created special menus that capture his own, “fine comfort” approach to contemporary gastronomy: fresh lobster lasagna, timeless Chateaubriand, but also sea bass fillet with orange powder, and celery root velouté with oscietra caviar are just some of the flavors that guests will enjoy on the eve at NEW Hotel. All this, to the sounds of live DJ music that will set the rhythm for the most special days and nights of the year. On Christmas Day and New Year’s Day, the impressive lunch buffet at the Lobby Bar and the special to-share options at the Art Lounge bring friends and loved ones together around the festive table for the most delicious, special, and enjoyably carefree moments of the holidays.
At NEW Hotel, however, the holidays are not limited to Christmas and New Year’s. The Lobby Bar is the ideal place for daily lunch breaks from the city’s busy pace, while at the Art Lounge we can enjoy atmospheric dinners every night with a 360-degree view of the festive center of Athens. And of course, on weekends, the city’s favorite habit, the NEW brunch, returns to both spaces of the hotel.
This December, NEW Hotel becomes the center of the celebration. Flavors, aesthetics, and vibes create a unique atmosphere of euphoria that gives these holidays an authentic, Athenian character.
