Makrygianni · Athens
A quiet hour beneath the Acropolis
Massage and wellness in a private, candlelit retreat — sixty seconds from the Acropolis Museum, and a world away from the city above it.
01 — Welcome
Athens has been bathing here
for eighteen centuries
Excavations in Makrygianni uncovered luxurious baths that served the city from the 2nd to the 7th century A.D.
Acropolis Touch was created on that same ground as a modern continuation of the ritual — a small, quiet house of care where the treatment is unhurried, the hands are trained, and nothing is rushed.
Four private suites, warm stone, low light, and the sound of water. You arrive from the noise of Dionysiou Areopagitou, and within a minute the city stops.
02 — Signature
Three ways to be undone
Our most requested treatments. Every session begins with a short consultation and a foot ritual, and ends with tea.
The Acropolis Ritual
A warm hydro-massage bath, a full-body aromatherapy massage with Greek olive and mastiha oils, and a scalp finish. Our signature, and the reason most people come back.
Japanese Head Spa
Lying down, eyes closed, warm water running through your hair. Scalp cleansing, lymphatic drainage of the neck and shoulders, and a long, slow head massage.
Deep Tissue Recovery
For legs that have climbed the hill, shoulders that carry a laptop, and backs that have flown here. Firm, targeted, therapeutic — as deep as you ask for and no deeper.
03 — The space
Built for one thing only
Travertine and warm oak, dimmable light in every room, and a sound system you will forget is there. Each suite is fully private with its own shower; two can be opened into one for couples.
Robes, slippers and towels are provided. Come as you are — there is a shower before and after, and no schedule to keep but your own.
Private suites
Four treatment rooms, each with its own rain shower and changing area.
Hydro-massage bath
A warm jet bath before your treatment, scented and candlelit.
Infrared sauna
A gentle, low-temperature sauna that works on muscle rather than lungs.
Couples room
Two tables side by side, one shared hour, two therapists.
04 — By arrangement
We can also
come to you
By prior arrangement we treat guests away from Kavalloti Street, and outside our normal opening hours — in hotel rooms, private homes and on board yachts within the area.
A supplement applies, calculated per treatment and per duration. Tell us where you are, how many of you there are and when suits — we confirm the full price before anything is booked.

What guests say
Absolutely amazing experience at Acropolis touch! The highlight was the Japanese Head Spa session , pure heaven for the scalp and mind. It felt like stress just melted away with every minute. Relaxing, refreshing, and unexpectedly addictive. The atmosphere was calming, the staff were wonderful, and I walked out feeling completely reset!

An outstanding experience! My heartfelt thanks to Lorena — she was incredible at what she does, attentive to my every need, and the deep tissue I asked for exceeded all my expectations. The space is clean and brand new. See you again soon!
