Property Description
A 5-star design hotel that meets the needs of the 21st century and engages and celebrates the changes of the city of Athens. The hotel spiritually and physically addresses the new international focus of Athens supported by the 2004 Olympic Games, the European Union, the new airport, and the crystallization of high-end shopping, restaurants, and nightlife in the north suburbs of Athens. The hotel is a global concept, a place that positions Athens as a global contemporary metropolis, competitive within the world. It sets the stage for the new -fast follower- traveler - the traveler that is informed, cultured, global, digitally savvy, and enjoys the comforts of high design and beauty. An intimate hotel that focuses on positive energy, culture, art and design. The Semiramis is a place for the new contemporary traveler - to enjoy, relax, work, and engage a new experience that is memorable, unlike any other anywhere else in the world. The spaces are conceptual and include art, ideas, technology, visuals, and texture colors - all the needs that are intrinsic to traveling. The flow of the design is soft and provokes a more human- friendly environment. White is the overriding canvas for lightness of well being and neutral spaces. Four colors repeat throughout the hotel- light pink, light green, orange, and light yellow. These colors bring energy and positive emotions to the visitor. There are 5 room types, including the penthouse suites and studios and the pool bungalows. All rooms have frosted glass bathrooms and closets to give a feeling of a larger space and to allow the daylight to penetrate in the entire room. Room facilities include 24hour internet access, mini cd and DVD, flat screen satellite television, plasma TV in studios and suites, enriched minibar, electronic safes, remote control utilities and LED scrolling signage system. The new organic-shaped pool area and its flowing, carved, landscaped decks are designed for daytime tranquility and privacy. Lighting will change to make the spaces dramatic and night-time socializing to become part of the mise-en-scene. The gym is brilliant in color that opens to the deck and pool. The hotel features the only art design store of its kind featuring Karim Rashid products.

Often cited as the birthplace of European civilization, Greece offers a heady mix of ancient archaeological sites, chic design hotels, rustic tavernas, family-orientated seaside resorts and hedonistic dance clubs.
Ancient Greece reached its zenith in the fifth century BC when Athens became the cultural and artistic center of the Mediterranean, producing magnificent works of architecture, sculpture, drama and literature.
There is no denying that the historical and cultural heritage of Greece continues to resonate throughout the modern
Western world - in its literature, art, philosophy and politics. In fact, many travelers come here specifically to explore Greece's ancient wonders, from Athens' Parthenon and Delphi's Temple of Apollo, to the ruins of the Minóan cityof Knossós on Crete.
Scattered throughout the calm blue waters of the Aegean and the Ionian are Greece's 1,400 islands - each with its own special story. The serenity of islands like Kefalonia and Amorgos contrasts with the hedonistic party islands such as Mykonos and Páros. Those interested in architecture should visit the medieval fortified towns of Rhodes and Corfu (both UNESCO World Heritage sites), and the whitewashed cubic houses of Thira and Oia on Santorini, typical of the Cyclades.
Sports enthusiasts will relish the Greek islands for their endless opportunities for scuba diving and sailing (there's no better way to explore the islands than aboard a chartered yacht), while keen hikers and mountain bikers can test their stamina in the rugged mountains of the country's largest island, Crete. And let's not forget, Greece's previous glory in sports was restored when the Olympic Games returned home in 2004.
Geography Greece is situated in southeast Europe on the Mediterranean. The mainland consists of the following regions: Central Greece, Peloponnese, Thessaly (east/central), Epirus (west), Macedonia (north/northwest) and Thrace (northeast). Euboea (Evvia) the second-largest of the Greek islands is also considered to be part of the mainland region and is connected to it by a bridge. The Peloponnese peninsula is separated from the northern mainland by the Isthmus of Corinth, but connected to it by a bridge over the isthmus, plus another bridge near Patras. The northern mainland is dissected by high mountains (such as the Pindus) that extend southwards towards a landscape of fertile plains, pine-forested uplands and craggy, scrub-covered foothills.
The islands account for one-fifth of the country's land area. The majority are thickly clustered in the Aegean between the Greek and Turkish coasts. The Ionian Islands are the exception; they are scattered along the west coast in the Ionian Sea. The Aegean archipelago includes the Dodecanese, lying off the Turkish coast, of which Rhodes is the best known; the Northeast Aegean group, including Chios, Ikaria, Lemnos, Lesvos and Samos; the Sporades, off the central mainland; and the Cyclades, comprising 39 islands (of which only 24 are inhabited). Crete, the largest island, is not included in any formal grouping.
