About Bluehaus

A room with a little history.

Bluehaus lives on the ground floor of the storied Blue Building, the cobalt landmark that has anchored Exarcheia Square since 1933. We kept the soul of the place — the petrol-blue walls, the brick, the big street-facing windows — and filled it with good coffee, long brunches and, when the sun drops, a proper cocktail bar.

By day it hums with laptops and conversation. By night the teal pendants glow low and the bar takes over. Same room, two moods.

  • Two floors of history

    The ground floor of the 1933 Blue Building — Athens’ first apartment block, hailed as très beau by Le Corbusier.

  • A working library

    Petrol-blue walls, reclaimed wood and shelves of books to thumb through over a flat white.

  • Laptop-friendly mornings

    Slow, sunlit hours with free Wi-Fi — the kind of room you settle into and lose track of time.

The Space

Brick, brass, petrol blue and a wall of beasts.

Hand-painted murals, teal glass pendants and a street-facing room that shifts with the light. Have a look around.
