The NJV Athens Plaza opened its doors in the Greek capital in 1980 and was initially known as the Le NJV Méridien, following a cooperation with the Le Méridien, a French upscale design-focused hotel brand.

In 1998, an agreement was reached with Grecotel Group and the hotel was renamed Grecotel NJV Athens Plaza.

In 2009 the hotel began to operate independently as the NJV Athens Plaza. Since its inception in 1980, it remains a member of the Vardinoyannis Group.
