Megaro Mela, Neoclassical hotel and office building in Kotzia Square, Athens, Greece

The Megaro Mela building features a closed atrium with surrounding colonnades and incorporates both hotel accommodations and professional workspaces across multiple levels.

Ernst Ziller designed this structure in 1874, making it the largest private building in Athens during the nineteenth century construction period.

The ground floor central hall of Megaro Mela functions as a space for public events and lectures, with a dedicated wing displaying the National Bank's art collection.

Located at 93 Aiolou Street near Omonia, Syntagma, Monastiraki, and Psyrri districts, the building provides access to major transportation connections throughout Athens.

The National Bank of Greece conducted an extensive restoration of the building in 1979, maintaining its original architectural elements while adapting spaces for modern use.
