These are the Pentelikon Athens Curio Collection by Hilton and the Hampton by Hilton Piraeus Mikrolimano, which are being prepared as we speak, in the prospect of opening during 2024. The Curio Collection and Hampton by Hilton are two of its fastest growing brands in Europe and represent almost half of its total number of hotels. So, this is as historic an agreement between Hilton and SCD LTD, as historic are both hotels that will be renovated and reformed to welcome guests from Greece and abroad.
Pendelikon is situated in the luxurious northern suburb of Kifissia, which has been in a favorite destination mainly for domestic travellers. Therefore, the investment of 18 million euros for the renovation of this historic hotel in Kefalari is particularly significant. Nevertheless, the renovation process is aiming to preserve the elements of the building’s history, which also contribute to its unique character.
Guests will be able to choose among 118 rooms including 13 suites and enjoy a fully equipped gym, 4 spa rooms, as well as indoor and outdoor swimming pools. Also, due to the large concentration of multinational headquarters offices in the area, provision was made for the hotel to be fully equipped with 3 conference halls. As a result, the hotel can host anything from small meetings to large conferences. Hence, it is expected to attract many business travelers, who will take advantage of the high level of service for which Hilton is known.

At the same time, the investment in Piraeus, amounting to approximately 5.5 million euros, concerns the former Hotel Mistral. The new hotel in Kastella will be upgraded into a 4 star accommodation. It will feature 83 rooms, 4 meeting rooms, a gym and an outdoor swimming pool with a spectacular view. Such an investment is not strange since Piraeus, is lately being transformed from the standard “port serving as a passage” into an important touristic hub.
