What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The classic facade gives little hint of the sort of hotel that awaits inside — this is a boutique in the contemporary mold.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
The waterfront is a block away, and the bustling tavernas of Ladadika start right around the corner.
The rooms
Original full-length windows open onto pocket balconies. Inside, light hardwood floors and marble bathrooms keep bedrooms bright and calm.
At the table
Clochard serves modern Greek dishes on the ground floor, and the Mezzanine lounge pours evening cocktails to jazz.
How it began
The 1924 building stood abandoned after the 1978 earthquake until the local Tornivoukas family restored it as a hotel.
