  • Since 2011

  • ~4 min walk to Exarcheia Square

Colors sits at 27–29 Emmanouil Benaki, between Omonia and Exarchia. Since 2011 the hotel has offered 29 rooms dressed in carefully chosen, contrasting colour combinations — from bold Economy doubles to a family room with bunks and a Penthouse Suite. The mood is residential and low-key.

"Rooms designed around colour. Not accent walls — fully committed colour stories, two or three tones chosen to work together."

Colors has been at 27–29 Emmanouil Benaki since 2011, between Omonia and Exarchia. The hotel's premise is direct: rooms built around colour. Each of the 29 rooms is given a pairing or trio of contrasting tones, running from walls to textiles to fixtures in a Deco-inflected minimalist idiom.

Room types range from compact Economy doubles to a family room fitted with bunks, up to a Penthouse Suite. The hotel runs with a residential feel — low-touch service, generous breakfast, staff who know the neighbourhood well enough to redirect you from the obvious choices toward the genuinely good ones.

From here the National Archaeological Museum is a short walk. Omonia Square is around the corner. The cafes and bars of Exarchia proper fill in the rest — the neighbourhood has enough of its own gravity to keep you in the area, and enough connections to pull you toward everything else Athens has.

Omonia

The square at the crossroads of central Athens, ringed by neoclassical blocks and a short walk from the central market. Rough around the edges, and changing fast.
