Where
Kolokotroni 3–5, Athens 105 62 — Syntagma
Not starred
Correct as at 5 September 2026 Milos does not appear on Michelin’s live Athens one-star or two-star lists. It is routinely described as starred and it is not. The hotel above holds one Michelin Key, which is a hotel award, not a restaurant one.
Behind it
Costas Spiliadis The Milos group: New York, London, Miami and elsewhere. This is the Athens house.
Hours
Lunch 12:00–16:00; dinner 16:00–23:00 Breakfast 07:00–11:00; the bar runs 08:00 to 02:00.
The hotel
Xenodocheio Milos, 43 rooms One Michelin Key — "a very special stay".
Private dining
Available
From Vouliagmeni
30 to 40 minutes Straight-line reasoning and ordinary traffic. No authority publishes journey times for these routes.

Estiatorio Milos occupies Kolokotroni 3–5 near Syntagma, with Xenodocheio Milos — forty-three rooms, one Michelin Key — above it. Lunch from noon, dinner from four, a bar until two in the morning, and private dining available.

The thing to get right

It is not starred. Michelin’s live Athens lists do not include it, and the One Key on the hotel is a hotel distinction. Anyone telling you otherwise has read a round-up rather than the guide — which is the same error that follows The Dolli around.

Why a coast household uses it

For guests. A visitor who wants the centre, does not want a grand hotel, and would rather eat well downstairs than travel for dinner has almost nowhere else to be put — and the Grande Bretagne is the other answer, which is a completely different kind of stay.
