Η Πρεσβεία των ΗΠΑ (Αμερικαvική Πρεσβεία) στην Ελλάδα, βρίσκεται στην λεωφόρο Βασιλίσσης Σοφίας στην Αθήνα. Πρόκειται για το μεγαλύτερο κτιριακό συγκρότημα ξένης πρεσβείας με τη μεγαλύτερη έκταση, καταλαμβάνοντας ολόκληρο οικοδομικό τετράγωνο έναντι και βόρεια του Μεγάρου Μουσικής. Κατασκευάστηκε από τον αρχιτέκτονα Βάλτερ Γκρόπιους την περίοδο 1959 - 1961 και ακολουθεί τις φόρμες της σχολής Μπάουχαους.[3] Θεωρείται ένα από τα σημαντικότερα έργα του αρχιτέκτονα και είναι εμπνευσμένο από την αρχιτεκτονική του Παρθενώνα. Το νέο κτίριο εγκαινίασε στις 6 Σεπτεμβρίου του 1961, ο Αμερικανός πρέσβης Έλις Μπριγκς παρουσία του τότε Έλληνα πρωθυπουργού Κωνσταντίνου Καραμανλή, μελών του Υπουργικού Συμβουλίου και του Αρχιεπισκόπου Αθηνών, κόβοντας την κορδέλα στο άνω επίπεδο της μαρμάρινης κλίμακας της κεντρικής εισόδου, επί της λεωφόρου Βασιλίσσης Σοφίας και η οποία κλίμακα αργότερα, στη μεταπολίτευση, αφαιρέθηκε. Προηγουμένως, η αμερικανική πρεσβεία στεγαζόταν σε παλαιό νεοκλασικό τετραώροφο κτίριο που βρισκόταν στη συμβολή των οδών Ηρώδου Αττικού και λεωφόρου Βασιλίσσης Σοφίας, το οποίο στη συνέχεια κατεδαφίστηκε και στη θέση του οικοδομήθηκε νέο πολυόροφο κτίριο. Το 2003, προστέθηκε ένας νέος χώρος πρασίνου καθώς και ένα καινούριο κτίριο προκειμένου να ικανοποιηθούν οι ανάγκες της πρεσβείας.

Excellence in customer service my passport expired, and I’m renewing and here even under a shut down. This folks are professional, courteous efficient. I cannot say good things enough about them in the counselor‘s office of the US in Athens, Greece best of the best.

Excellent embassy on a major road. The security was very friendly and helpful. And, the embassy staff within were also very friendly and professional. If you ever have a reason to visit this embassy, you won’t be disappointed.

So far I've had the consulate staff help steal billions in inventions from myself and hundreds of billions in revenue from the US people plus coverup of a jihsdist attack on me and hostage taking during the coverup of a jihsdist attack upon myself John pate owner of electrolips LLC Berkeley California in Paris France on Feb 22 2022.. Also for ten years they have refused to give me a 4th generation us citizen who's grandfather was awarded a bronze cross and purple heart for his actions on Normandy beach first wave, his passport for over ten years because in 2008 I lost my home and went bankrupt and they say cause I've been homeless for 15 years while the same federal government refuses to investigate the Colombo crime family and their witness protection program agents they sell drugs committing crimes on me with US federal government aid to continue to steal from me and use illegal tactics in government to keep me broke and unable to afford a lawyer to convict these Hindu , and Jewish caste system members illegally employed by the United states redcoat federal government. I have to go in today to see if I can go back home where I was born and grew up for over thirty years and see if these foreigners will issue me a travel pass to get back home to the United states. These foreigners are committing slavery on me through their Hindu and Russo Canadian caste systems in our government. electrolips Berkeley

Redcoats are feds are redcoats are feds. Let's see what crap these russo Canadian cave women pull today. Oh was I politically incorrect? I'm sorry I mean lowlives Russo Canadian murdering cave women...

The overall experience was as pleasant as it could be. I lost my passport so obviously the circumstances were not enjoyable. The lady taking pictures at the Embassy was extremely nice to me and walked me through the process and calmed me down with her kind words.

The only thing I would like to comment on is that when I called the Embassy here they gave me wrong information two times. I lost my passport in Santorini and they told me that I could get on the airline with a police report (all my identification was in my purse that was stolen). Ryanair would not allow this. I called back and they said they were not in control of what the airline allows (Ok, but why did you tell me they would allow it then). They then told me to book a new flight with a Greek airline, because they would let me on the plane. I called multiple airlines and none of them would let me on. I ended up booking an 8 hour ferry, luckily there was one that day. I understand they are not in control of what the airlines can and cannot do, but they shouldn't be giving people this false information. They were rather short with me, but they were the...

Consular staff are knowledge and try to help you where they're able. I have nothing but positive things to say about them.

However, the private G4S security need to calm down. They're rude and not helpful. Once they finally let me in the building, I got my services done, went to the restroom, but prior to leaving I struck up a conversion with a fellow American and his family that unfortunately had lost their passports in a local coffee shop. I spoke with them for 3-5 minutes until a private security guard told me I needed to leave.

To G4S security I can only say thank you for providing an accurate picture of Greek culture to every American that steps through the doors of our Embassy. You people are rude and unnecessarily aggressive towards Americans and foreigners alike. Perhaps they're jealous of Americans or just poorly trained, I can't say as I would only be speculating. God...
