  1. The rooftop infinity pool lines up with the Parthenon close enough to feel like a fever dream. This boutique hotel in a neoclassical Plaka building holds a Michelin 2 Keys and a Forbes Four Star, and both feel earned: high ceilings, oversized windows, marble floors, and rooms where the ancient ruins are visible from the bed. The rooftop restaurant adds a panoramic dining option for anyone who needs more Acropolis with their Mediterranean fare.


  2. A Victorian facade on Syntagma Square, with Acropolis views from the balconies and a rooftop pool that makes a convincing case for never leaving. This grand old luxury hotel has been hosting heads of state and the occasional rock tour for well over a century, and a top-to-bottom restoration brought every oil painting and piece of antique furniture back to full splendor without tipping into museum overload. The Michelin Guide has awarded it 2 Keys.

  3. Murano chandeliers, herringbone floors, and a direct sightline to the Parthenon from Syntagma Square: this 102-room luxury hotel has been one of Athens's more fashionable addresses since it opened. The cream-and-gold rooms have a boutique feel, the walls hang with works by Greek painters, and the neoclassical bones are intact without feeling frozen in time. Voukourestiou Street, the city's main shopping strip, is a short walk away.


  4. A whitewashed Cycladic building clinging to a cliffside a short walk from the chaos of Mykonos Town, Kouros is a 40-room boutique hotel where every room faces the Aegean. The infinity pool bar keeps guests in spritz-fueled suspension above the water, and the spa exists primarily to undo whatever the island's nightlife managed to do. Renovated suites swap the standard all-white for a sharper white-and-black palette with marble throughout.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
