In April 1963, a landmark hotel opened its doors in Athens

marking a new era of prosperity and development for the Greek

tourism.

The official inauguration of the Hilton Athens, which took place on the

20th of April 1963 followed by a two-day celebration, gathered

distinguished guests from all corners of the world and constituted an

unprecedented social event for the city of Athens.

“I agree with those who believe that the Hilton hotel in Athens is the

most beautiful Hilton hotel in the world,” said the founder of the

company, Conrad Hilton, while present during the inauguration

ceremony.

The first international chain hotel which had ever opened in

Athens was indeed a remarkable building of an unprecedented size

and innovative services, while from an architectural point of view it

combined an imposing magnificence with the minimal style of Ancient

Greece.

HISTORY OF HILTON ATHENS

Page 33: Explore Hilton Athens

The architectural team of the

Hilton Athens consisted of

Emanuel Vourecas, Procopius

Vassiliades, Spyros Staikos and

Anthony Georgiades.

Hilton Athens was indeed one of

the buildings that defined the

architectural aesthetics of the

‘60s in Greece and, despite its

cosmopolitan character, featured

some powerful Greek elements

thanks to the use of the Pentelic

marble and the monumental

artwork of the facade by Yannis

Moralis, one of the most

important 20th-century Greek artists.

HISTORY OF HILTON ATHENS

Page 34: Explore Hilton Athens

All these years, numerous celebrities have passed the threshold of

the Hilton Athens: heads of states, famous artists and renowned

scientists.

On the occasion of the Athens 2004 Summer Olympic Games, Hilton

was fully renovated by the renowned Greek architects Alexandros

Tombazis and Charis Bougadelis.

In 2004, Hilton Athens was the headquarters of the International

Olympic Committee, while in 2011 it was the headquarters of the

organizing committee of the Special Olympics World Summer

Games in Athens.

HISTORY OF HILTON ATHENS

Page 35: Explore Hilton Athens

Hilton Athens has been functioning in a multidimensional way in the

city of Athens. It established the first art gallery in Athens, the so-

called “Hilton Gallery” through the relationship

with Marilena Liacopoulou which resulted in a series of historical

exhibitions from 1968 until 1972.

Today, Hilton Athens does not just expose art as part of the hotel

decoration but incorporates famous art pieces in its whole existence.

Apart from a permanent exhibition, Hilton Athens is constantly investing

efforts in culture by hosting periodical exhibitions of Greek and foreign

artists in its large, luminous lobby. These initiatives enhance the

commitment of the hotel towards the enrichment of the Athenian art

scene.

Hilton Athens is not just a hotel, but is has become an integrated

part of the city’s social, cultural and business life.
