Pool Your Cinema
Open-air cinema is a fundamental part of an Athenian summer, but this rooftop setup takes the tradition to a completely different level. Perched on the seventh floor of the Hotel Grande Bretagne, Pool Your Cinema pairs a curated selection of Hollywood blockbusters, classics, and new releases with a refreshing poolside breeze. It is the exact spot a local would suggest if you want to treat yourself to a glamorous evening right in the centre of the city, complete with views of Lycabettus Hill lit up against the night sky.
The experience trades standard cinema snacks for a premium menu of finger food prepared by the hotel's culinary team. Because seating is limited to the lounger chairs surrounding the illuminated pool, booking well in advance is essential. Screenings run from Thursday to Saturday throughout the warmer months, kicking off just as the city lights take over.
