Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Athens (Greek: Ξενοδοχείο & Καζίνο Hard Rock στην Αθήνα) is an under construction integrated resort being built along the Athens Riviera in Athens, Greece.[1][2]
In 2022, Hard Rock International and GEK Terna partnered to develop an integrated resort in Greece.[3] Construction on Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Athens began in 2024 and the resort is expected to be complete in 2027. The resort is located along the Athens Riviera at the site of the now-closed Ellinikon International Airport. The airport site was transformed into the Hellinikon Olympic Complex for the 2004 Summer Olympics. Following those games, venues located at that complex had fallen into a state of disrepair, with several being demolished. The site is being transformed into Hellinikon Metropolitan Park. The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and the Riviera Tower are amongst the two projects being developed at the new park. The resort will be the first integrated resort located in continental Europe.[4][5]
