The Foundry Overview

Situated in the historic neighbourhood of Psyrri, The Foundry is an Urban Boutique Luxury Hotel in Athens that fuses industrial design with exceptional, mid-century modern stylistics. The building that houses The Foundry is steeped in decades of history, originally built in 1930 and having served as a font foundry. Through the years it developed into a printing house before becoming a cultural centre with a gallery and theatre space, actively promoting the arts. Today, keeping all this history within its walls, The Foundry has been fully transformed into a place that welcomes guests who seek a sleek, urban sanctuary in the heart of modern Athens.

Featuring 12 sensational, fully equipped apartments and a stunning rooftop picnic garden, The Foundry can boast a central location and magnificent Acropolis views. The Foundry exudes a hip sense of belonging, a contemporary feeling of being at home with its raw materiality and industrial approach dominating the interiors, all the while maintaining a vintage character that respects its vibrant history.

The Foundry has created a verdant oasis of urban repose, doused in spectacular views over the city of Athens, and its most prized landmark, the Acropolis, from morning till night.

Accommodation

Each one of the 12 apartments of The Foundry is unique, in a contemporary, industrial style that creates a modern environment of new age hospitality. The sophisticated apartments become guests’ urban sanctuary in Athens, showcasing the bare refinement of high-grade materials such as steel, glass, wood, stone, marble and terrazzo and the seductive charm of fusing diverse aesthetics and design elements. High ceilings and hardwood floors are featured across all apartments, while earthy tones with bold splashes of colour characterise the interiors. Custom structures such as light fixtures and gear based mechanisms for the iron frame window openings add an avant-garde touch, while bursts of hip wall tapestry and authentic, vintage furniture all come together to compose a reposeful setting of the highest contemporary standards, in an effortlessly elegant manner.
