Our Take

Athens's Most Direct Acropolis-View Rooftop

A for Athens sits on top of the A for Athens Hotel and delivers the most direct Acropolis view in Plaka. The 7th-floor cocktail bar has floor-to-ceiling windows, a wraparound terrace, and modern seating. Polished cocktail program, Mediterranean small plates.

The view is the calling card. The Acropolis is lit at night and the perspective from the rooftop is the most postcard-perfect view in Athens. Reservations required for sunset (around 19:30 in summer).

Pair with The Clumsies after for a more precise cocktail experience.
