As you might have already gathered from our article on luxury spas in Athens, the fanciest or most stylish places to take care of your body are usually located inside the most upscale hotels in Athens. These wellness facilities include a fitness center with state-of-the-art equipment and often options for group or personal training. If you are workout-specific and pro-convenience, you definitely need to book at a hotel that offers such options within its premises. Alternatively, you can visit another hotel gym or a standalone gym that accepts drop-ins and visitors.
Luxury lovers won’t find that many special spaces to exercise, yet a handful of those spots will meet their demands to the fullest. If possible it is highly recommended to avoid such spaces on busy hours (5-8pm) when they are struggling to meet the demand. Embrace the athletic spirit inspired by the first modern Olympic Games that took place in Athens in 1896 when French historian Baron Pierre de Coubertin took the initiative to revive the original series of sports events that were held in the sacred land of Olympia (town in Southern mainland Greece) from the 8th century BC to the 4th century AD.
