At Olympus Hospitality, we believe that a stay in Rhodes should feel like more than a holiday — it should feel like a homecoming to the very birthplace of Western civilisation. Our three existing suites — Zeus, Poseidon, and Ares — each embody the commanding presence of their divine namesakes. And now, we're excited to share the vision behind the next three: Athena, Apollo, and Aphrodite.
Three deities. Three entirely different expressions of the divine. Three suites that will redefine what luxury means on the island of Rhodes.
Athena Suite: Wisdom, Power, and Timeless Elegance
Athena was never the loudest goddess in the room. She didn't need to be. The daughter of Zeus, born fully armoured from his head, she was the embodiment of strategic intelligence, craftsmanship, and grace under pressure.
The Athena Suite will honour that legacy with an interior that speaks softly but commands every glance. Think cool marble surfaces, deep olive greens woven into bespoke textiles, and a library wall of curated books on Greek history, mythology, and philosophy. The palette draws from the grey-eyed goddess herself — silver, sage, and ivory, lit by natural light flooding through floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the garden terrace below.
Athena's suite will be the place for those who come to Rhodes not just to lie on the beach, but to understand it. To walk the cobbled lanes of Rhodes Old Town — just 10 minutes away — and feel the weight of 2,400 years of continuous history beneath their feet.
Apollo Suite: Light, Music, and the Art of the Perfect Day
If Athena is contemplative, Apollo is radiant. God of the sun, music, poetry, and prophecy, Apollo was the most beautiful of all the Olympians — and the most celebrated. His golden chariot drew the sun across the sky each day; his lyre inspired the first poets.
The Apollo Suite will be an homage to light. Warm gold tones, burnished brass fixtures, and south-facing windows that capture the Aegean light from dawn until the last blush of sunset. Every surface will catch the sun differently across the day — a design choice made deliberately, so that the suite itself becomes a kind of clock, marking the hours with shifting luminance.
On Rhodes, sunlight is not merely weather — it is the island's defining character. With more than 300 days of sun per year, guests in the Apollo Suite will never be far from the warm, clarifying brightness that has drawn travellers to this island for millennia. Lie on the garden terrace. Watch the light change over the bougainvillea. Let the day unfold as it was always meant to.
Aphrodite Suite: Love, Beauty, and Sensory Indulgence
Born from the sea foam off the coast of Cyprus — some myths place her emergence near Rhodes itself — Aphrodite was the goddess of love, desire, and irresistible beauty. She was not a deity of war or wisdom; she was the reason mortals did brave and foolish things in equal measure.
The Aphrodite Suite will be our most intimate and indulgent offering. Rose-gold accents, rich blush and terracotta tones, a rain shower draped in mosaics inspired by ancient Greek baths, and a private terrace draped in jasmine and climbing roses. This is a suite designed for couples — for slow mornings, candlelit evenings, and the kind of holiday that feels, years later, like it happened in a dream.
Rhodes, after all, has always been an island for lovers. The Knights of St John fell under her spell. The Ottomans built palaces here. The Crusaders built cathedrals. Aphrodite Suite will offer a more personal kind of enchantment: two people, one island, an infinite number of perfect moments.
Why Rhodes Is the Perfect Setting for These Three Goddesses
The mythological resonance of Rhodes is not accidental. Ancient sources tell us that the sun god Helios — often conflated with Apollo — claimed Rhodes as his sacred island. The Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, was built in his honour. Athena temples dotted the island from Lindos to the city walls. And Aphrodite, born of the sea, was worshipped across the Aegean with particular devotion.
When you stay at Olympus Hospitality, you are staying at the intersection of myth and geography. Our location in Marathonas — just five minutes from the beach, eight minutes from the harbour, and ten minutes from the medieval wonders of Rhodes Town — places you perfectly between the island's ancient soul and its modern, sun-drenched pleasures.
A Mythology for Modern Travellers
We believe that travel, at its best, is a form of storytelling. Each of our suites is a chapter in the longer narrative of Olympus Hospitality — a place where the gods of antiquity become the guiding spirit of a contemporary luxury experience.
The Zeus Suite offers authority and grandeur. The Poseidon Suite channels the restless energy of the sea. The Ares Suite is bold and visceral, designed for those who take their leisure as seriously as their ambitions. And when Athena, Apollo, and Aphrodite join them, the full chorus of Olympus will be complete.
