Contemporary Athens eco-pad steps away from key attractions

• In the heart of it all: From Urban K, you needn’t travel far at all to see the wonders of this ancient city, which many would travel miles to see. Just steps away, you’ll find Mount Lycabettus, the highest point in the city, well worth the climb (or cable car) to behold panoramic views across the Birthplace of Democracy. Hewn from marble and dating back to 566 BC, the mighty Panathenaic Stadium is also nearby, and there are several key museums around the corner.

• Industrial chic: In contrast to the ancient beauty of your surroundings, your base is a trendy, industrial-chic base with a sleek finish and optimal comfort – a cool and calming pad to unwind in after a long day. There are plush corners to plan your city adventures, and you could opt for a room with a terrace to breakfast out under the smiling Greek sunshine.

• Eco-friendly mod cons: Guestrooms are smart in both senses of the word: both modish and decked out with sophisticated, eco-conscious measures to ensure ease of use and peace of mind. Prepare lunches and dinners in the well-equipped kitchenette, and use a modern touchscreen panel to control the conditions of your room. All in all, enjoy the comfort of a luxe stay powered by solar energy and eco-friendly materials.
