"A design-centric hotel in Athens known for its modern architecture and artistic flair." - Monica Mendal
"Before it was the New Hotel, it was the Olympic Palace, a fairly representative bit of vaguely utopian mid-20th-century modernism. As it was showing its age, owner Dakis Jouannou elected to gut it — and to make a new hotel from the pieces of the old. Everything went back in; every door, every beam, every piece of stone, and the result is salvage like you’ve never seen it before." - Mark Fedeli

"How’s that for a hotel that gets right to the point? The New Hotel is literally new, but something tells us it’ll still be looking fresh even after the name has abandoned its literal meaning for a more figurative one. And the key, we suspect, is that it’s a hotel with an aesthetic point of view — rather than the off-the-shelf minimalism that recently dominated the boutique hotel world, owner Dakis Jouannou went for something a little bit bolder." - The MICHELIN Guide
