  • Athens, Greece
    NOVEMBER 2014 | PRICE €400 IN FOCUS: ATHENS, GREECE Pavlos Papadimitriou, MBA Senior Associate Panagiotis Verykios Analyst www.hvs.com HVS ATHENS | 17 Posidonos Ave. 5th Floor, 17455 Alimos, Athens, GREECE This market snapshot is part of a series of articles that HVS occasionally produces on key tourism destinations across Greece. In writing these articles, we utilise the expertise of HVS for each market to the full extent combining our in- house data and research together with published information regarding each of the examined destinations. Highlights • Since 2009 the negative publicity stemming from the rumours regarding the economic situation of Greece led to socio- political and economic turbulence which generated significant fluctuations in tourist arrivals during the period of 2009- 12. Due to the double elections held in May and June of that year, 2012 was rather ‘slow’ for Greek tourism. Tourism statistics for Athens over the period 2009-11 were also volatile, contrary to resort destinations which have followed a rather stable or upward path in the last few years. Moreover, approximately 80 hotels closed down in the same period, the vast majority of them classified as three-star and lower; • During 2008-12, revenue per available room (RevPAR) for all hotels in Athens decreased by a remarkable 35.9% as a result of the economic crisis that affected the city. For the same period, RevPAR for five-star hotels decreased by 30.5% and for four-star hotels by 36.4%; • According to one of the most recent reports of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Greece has unquestionably made significant strides in overcoming deep-rooted problems, with the three most noteworthy achievements standing out being the progress on fiscal adjustment, the narrowing of the competitiveness gap, and the stabilisation of the banking sector; • In 2013, 17.9 million international tourists visited Greece, spending €12.0 billion, up from €10.4 billion in 2012.

  • Newsletter No. 10 14 April 2021
    UNDER THE PATRONAGE OF H.E. THE PRESIDENT OF THE HELLENIC REPUBLIC Ms. KATERINA SAKELLAROPOULOU European Philatelic Exhibition 19-22 November 2021, Athens, Greece Newsletter no. 10 ● 14 April 2021 NOTOS 2021 moves to Zappeion A bolt from the blue on a beautiful morning: The Peristeri Exhibition Centre was about to be trans- formed into another Major Vaccination Centre by the Greek Health Authorities. “Good news”, one might say, “the programme seems to be rolling out...”. On the other hand, we had no other option but to start searching for another suitable venue. It was only a few days ago that we received confirmation from the Zappeion (https://www.zappeion.gr/en/) that the dates we had requested are available. The Zappeion is located next to the National Garden, only a few steps away from the all-marble Pana- thenaic Stadium, or a short walk from Hadrian’s Gate, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, the Odeon of Herodes Atticus, the Acropolis, Plaka, Syntagma Square, the Parliament or the Presidential Mansion. It is our most celebrated Conference and Exhibition Hall, right in the very heart of Athens. It was built in the 1880s and bore witness to all the major social, cultural and political events of the years that followed. As early as in 1896, it served as the fencing venue at the revival of the Olympic Games of the modern era. In 1979 its courtyard welcomed the European delegations at the signing of Greece’s Accession to the EEC (photo below). The Zappeion is also well acquainted with philately. It hosted two memorable anniversary events: The world exhibition of Olympic and Sports stamps “Athens 1896-1996”, on the occasion of the cente- nary of the Olympic Games in 1996, and an exhibition with treasures from the Philatelic and Postal Museum for the 150th anniversary of the first Greek stamp in 2011 (photo below).

It’s personal, not interesting to anyone else, but after all, that's what gives a neighborhood it’s character. Abigail Brown Kolonaki to Syntagma Square Abigail Brown stepped onto the sidewalk, blinking her eyes furiously in the afternoon sunlight and wrinkling her nose at the faint smell of urine. It was one of those sweltering June days when, no matter how little you wore or how short a time you spent outside, you were bound to be dripping with sweat in minutes. Abigail knew from the moment she left the cool, air- conditioned shade of her top floor apartment that she would regret walking all the way to Syntagma Square, especially in her best navy suit, but she had no choice. The metro workers were on strike, and she refused to let their pettiness stop her from the strict schedule that made up her everyday life. Anything or anyone that got in her way was an inconvenience, and she hated inconvenience. Abigail pulled out her iPhone and checked how long the walk from Kolonaki would be, hoisting her briefcase up onto her already-aching shoulder. “Fifteen minutes,” she muttered, laughing in disbelief that the most direct route could take so long and starting to walk briskly towards Syntagma.

  • Athens Retail Guide
    ATHENS Cushman & Wakefield Global Cities Retail Guide Cushman & Wakefield | Athens | 2019 0 The City of Athens is the capital of Greece and one of world’s oldest cities. The urban area of Athens extends beyond the administrative city limits and has an estimated population of some 3.8 million; amounting to almost a third of the Greek population. The total shopping centre stock in Greece is 620,000 sqm (June 2019) 70% of which is concentrated near Athens. There is little room for modern retail developments in Athens due to planning restrictions and lack of large developable land accessible by metro. An exception on the above could be the development of the old airport in Ellinikon. Hellinikon SA intends to develop one of the most prominent inner-city waterfront mixed-use projects, with a blend of contemporary and up-market buildings, creating an integrated destination. Provided some legal and technical matters will be resolved the only shopping centre in the pipeline is The Mall in the area of Votanikos of 48,000 sqm GLA. The 2004 Olympics saw significant infrastructure improvements around Athens, and since then the city has taken a more business-like approach. Tourism is of particular significance to some areas of the Athenian market. Athens is the first target for international retailers entering the Greek market. Prior to the recession there was lack of adequate retail space suitable for international retailers; which caused delays in retailers’ expansion plans. The retail climate has improved since 2017, with increased demand and vacancy now very limited in prime locations. The general outlook for retail property in Athens is positive, with macros improving and leasing activity expected to be sound in 2019 benefitting from growth in private consumption and tourism increase.
