Hotel description
The Hotel Villa Athena is a luxury boutique hotel with an elegant design set in an archaeological park. It has a unique location just 200 meters from the Temple of Concordia and right in the middle of a UNESCO World Heritage Site - the Valley of the Temples at Agrigento. The Villa Athena itself dates back to the 18th century and has been beautifully maintained through careful restoration. The outdoor areas feature a panoramic terrace and a large swimming pool, perfect for relaxing. A landscape of olive and cork trees stretches around the property and as far as the eye can see while the breathtaking views of the Temple of Concordia are simply unforgettable!
Luxury: Italian design & luxury suites
The design of the hotel rooms keeps the elegant history of this old country house alive: grand suites with Sicilian ceramics, marble bathrooms and large terraces, a beautifully complementary interior, huge paintings on the walls, a lovely garden with pool and a completely unique setting make up the grand, historic feel at Villa Athena.
Romantic: Between palm trees, olive trees and temple walls
The Ancient Greek setting with temples dotted between palm trees and olive trees is perfect for a romantic break away. The landscape around the hotel almost looks like it’s been painted. It’s no surprise then that the Villa is a popular choice for wedding celebrations which can be held in the garden.
Boutique: Small hotel in a unique location
With a total of 27 rooms including suites, the Villa Athena never feels crowded. The atmosphere is quiet and sophisticated with a classic touch.
Eating & drinking: Sicilian cuisine with temple views
The hotel’s own restaurant is set in a smart dining hall that was built into the remains of an ancient cistern. Here and on the terrace which faces the temple, guests are treated to a fine selection of food and drink, including a wide range of excellent quality wines. The head chef has received many awards for his innovative dishes based on traditional Sicilian recipes.
Sports & leisure: Culture and relaxation
With its location in the middle of the Valley of the Temples, the Hotel Villa Athena is perfectly situated for visiting the different excavation sites. The Temple of Concordia is just a stone’s throw away. After a spot of sightseeing you can enjoy the beautiful, large pool in the garden of the hotel. A sunny terrace, Jacuzzi and variety of massages are just a few of the other ways you can relax and unwind here.
