Ergon House sits in the heart of Athens, on the ground floor and a 4-storey building, that has a listed two storey façade and four storeys of newbuilt addition in the 90’s. Restaurant and store facilities are taking place on the ground floor. The entrance is revealed after one has crossed the atrium. The rooms have an interior facade looking at the atrium and a back looking at the Acropolis. This hotel’s biggest challenge was to combine traditional Greek architecture along with needs of the modern gastronomy-oriented traveller. Working with a rectangular shape of the typical floor, the rooms are arrayed around central common spaces such as the lobby, the shared kitchens and the fitness room. In a rectangular room, the bed is placed towards the one end of the room next to the window view. The room is arranged in three zones; the entrance through the wet areas, the sitting area with the desk and a bench and an elevated large open sleep area. The reception is located on the first floor along with the lounge area. The interior design spins around traditional Greek architecture; the beds echo the old bunk bed style, tapestry by woven loom textiles are used as a decorative element, while the decorative cinder blocks refer to the entrances of downtown Athens multi-storey buildings of the 60’s. The materiality of the Greek city is present in the finishes, as walnut, terrazzo, marble, concrete blocks and off-white paint are found within the interior of the hotel.
