Z	Zisis Zagkountinos on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place is a must for visitors. I think that the SNFCC is one of the most beautiful buildings in the city of Athens. The architecture is great and the atmosphere relaxing and beautiful. You can go there for a walk around the park, to grab a coffee and catch some beautiful views of the city or even study in the study halls and visit the library. The Greek National Opera is also inside the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Centre and is a new and modern opera where you can attend some performances. Lots of actions and events are organized throughout the year. You should check the center’s website for more information. The SNFCC has many gardens and places to chill out and also some coffee shops and restaurants with a good variety of products pretty good prices. The overall experience is great.
V	Vladyslava Zadorozhna on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I am glad I've learned about this place before coming to Athens and dedicated several hours to visit it. If you are a tourist and don't have a car rented, brace your self to walk a kilometer or so from the nearest bus stop up to this center as the bus is the only option public transport option to get here. But it's absolutely worth it. The architecture is so light and monumental at the same time. It's fusion of the building with the roof top olive trees garden that melts into the huge park won't leave anyone indifferent. It's a good place for families with children, youngsters on bikes and skates, friends and dogs - everyone will find their place here to relax. Especially on weekends the people just flood the space around and that's very cool. I felt like a local walking the passes in the park, enjoying the panoramic roof top sea view and getting some crepes at the van near the exit as there are so many locals hanging out while all the tourists queue up at the Acropolis. The place is definitely worth visiting, just be ready to spend there at least two-three hours to get some break from the intense pace of the Athens city center
S	Svetlana Gudkova on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice space and a huge library. As for now (January 2022) you can go inside the library only if you’re vaccinated, but still there’s a lot of space to walk around such as garden and viewpoint at the top. Very nice place to watch sunset
S	Schiavone 360 on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Its always a beautiful idea to spend some time outdoors. So refreshing to be surrounded by nature, plenty of areas to walk, ride a bike or scooter. Designated running track and outdoor gym equipment to help keep you in shape. Musical tiles to soothe the soul and mind. Outdoor chess, fountains, it's all such a full body and mind experience.
K	Kamil NOWAK on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ National Opera, library, bar, restaurant etc. For tourists lighthouse! You will enjoy beautiful view from open covered roof for Athens port Athens. Additional you can walk i the park over the roof of above buildings.
A	Aristides Ioannides on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very nice complex with unique and thoughtful design. The library is wonderful and larger than expected. Many good food choices and exceptional gardens and exercise opportunities. Great place to bring kids. Make sure to visit the "light house" which is more a large observation deck. Check out the long distance binoculars for a great view of the Parthenon.
M	Marnie Walsh on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This family-friendly destination could be better. The guide map is printed only in Greek. Parking and security personnel gave instructions only in Greek. We were confused when we entered the wrong line to the parking structure. We were confused about how to pay for parking. And we were confused about where to show our vaccination records before we could enter the lighthouse. Due to COVID-19, the library is closed to visitors who want to warm up and wait for the fountain display. The fountain display does not operate between 3 and 6pm. The fountain schedule should be posted where it would be easy for visitors to find. I didn't realize that it features different music at different times. We got there at 4:30 and waited for the 6:00 "show", which was only 1 song. Nevertheless, we enjoyed viewing the gardens, light sculptures, and fountain display. We would recommend offering more cultural activities. The parking was expensive for the limited activities that were available to the public in early December.
A	Alok Jadhav on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice place to hangout with kids and probably for all age groups. It has a lot of open space for kids to roam about. It has a nice old and huge Greek library. Fountain gets turned on for only a few mins after a specific time interval which I found little weird. But it's one of the main attractions, I got to shoot nice photos. I felt the food being served there is not that good.
