Fatale Hotels Expands European Presence with New Luxury Hotel in Athens

Israeli hotel chain Fattal Hotels has launched its second property in Athens, Greece, rebranding the Great Athens Hotel to Leonardo Hotel Athens City Center. The newly named hotel is located near Omonia Square, a central hub for shopping and activity in the Greek capital.

The nine-story hotel features 117 modern rooms and suites. Its rooftop level boasts a garden, swimming pool, and bar offering panoramic views of the Athens skyline and the Acropolis.

This launch brings Fattal's total hotel portfolio in Greece to five active properties. The company plans further expansion in the region, with new hotels slated for Greece and Cyprus, and entry into markets such as Montenegro, Croatia, and Albania.

This move is part of Fattal's aggressive acquisition strategy across Europe. Recently, Fattal and Israel Canada Hotels acquired operating rights for 15 hotels in Germany and the Netherlands for approximately 40 million euros, capitalizing on market disruptions and financial difficulties faced by the German group Revo.
