Destination: Conrad Athens the Ilisian

"...That combination is what makes Athens particularly compelling for luxury travelers. You can spend the morning surrounded by 2,500 years of history, have lunch by the sea, return to the city for an afternoon of contemporary art or shopping, and end the day on a rooftop overlooking the illuminated Acropolis. Very few capitals can offer that variety so naturally within a single day."
