Hotel Grande Bretagne, a Luxury Collection Hotel Expert Review
Kate Coleman
Renowned as the most luxurious and iconic hotel in Athens, the Hotel Grande Bretagne will not disappoint!
From the grand façade, enter into a breathtaking lobby area scattered with antiques and intricate art pieces. This theme continues throughout the hotel with all communal areas decadent in style.
Rooms have a historic feel with beautiful features and varying views depending on category.
The key selling point of this wonderful property is the rooftop restaurant overlooking the Acropolis. Here you will arguably find the best views in the city. In addition to the outstanding level of food and drink on offer, the hotel boasts a wining cellar and tasting experience and an expansive spa. The location is unrivalled, just off Syntagma Square and within walking distance of all the top sights.
Top tip: Request a higher floor room for more peace and quiet and better city views!
