Having a separate name for the org and the hotel unnecessarily introduces more confusion/complexity.
Defaulting to Athena because it happens to be the name of the building already, seems highly improbable to coincidentally be the best option.
For clarity, something that concisely describes the mission or vision of the org and place feels best to me. Arepo’s suggestion of ‘Center for Altruists in Residence’ hits the sweet spot on the specific enough to broad enough spectrum IMO. It also has an acronym which people will all pronounce the same and spell correctly (C.A.R.)
Using the names of philosophers etc runs the risk of people having (potentially negative) ideas about the person in question, which don’t align with the purpose/vision/mission of the hotel. So personally I’d avoid that to ensure people who should be attracted, are attracted.
