Traditional Greek Breakfast with Local Ingredients

Step into our 19th-century merchant marine «Mario’s” Lounge for a voyage into history and savor your morning with traditional fare served in a room rich with maritime legacy. Our breakfast room is inspired by the merchant ships that once crossed the seas in the 1800s and offers more than a meal — a morning aboard a historic voyage.

"Breakfast is a meal with an incredible emotional charge.
It's a feeling of fellowship that is unlike any other meal of the day."

Anthony Bourdain
