OKUPA turns one

Twelve months ago, Okupa opened its doors with a clear vision: to create a place with personality. A place where design is lived, not displayed. A place that feels real.

One year later, Okupa has already grown into exactly that. It has become a base for curious travellers, a home for returning guests, and a space that blends openness, creativity, and hospitality in a way that feels distinctly Athenian. From morning light in the rooms to evening cool vibes around the lobby, Okupa carries an energy that can’t be replicated; only created by people who believe in it.

Behind this first year is a team that built Okupa detail by detail, moment by moment. A team that shaped its culture, its pace, its service, and the guest experience that sets it apart. Their passion is the reason Okupa isn’t just a property; it’s a mood.

As Okupa celebrates its first birthday, we celebrate the journey, the community around it, and the vision that keeps evolving. Year one was only the beginning. The next chapters are already being written.

Here’s to one year of Okupa and to everything still ahead.
