The Divani Apollon Palace & Thalasso is located in the heart of the Athenian Riviera, in Vouliagmeni, a coastal area in the southern suburbs of Athens stretching to Cape Sounio. Expect pleasant temperatures with daytime highs reaching around 80°F (approximately 27°C) during the event.

Check-In Information:

  • If you’re arriving before Monday at 9 AM, please check in at the hotel’s reception desk and mention that you are participating in the CloudPay conference. This will help the hotel ensure you can remain in the same room throughout your stay.
  • If you’re arriving on Monday after 9 AM, you can check in and collect your badge directly at the CloudPay hospitality desk, which will be clearly signposted and located just by the hotel’s reception desk. Please ensure you bring one form of photo ID to collect your pass.
