Hotel Grande Bretagne, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Athens

It is a grand dame of Athens hotels and lives up to it. I can't remember ever seeing such a stunning Christmas tree in any hotel worldwide. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The top floor restaurant is really good too and you dine with an Acropolis view.

Be careful with interpreting the pictures on booking.com which may not represent what you actually get. We got an upgrade due to the discrepancy.

My stay at the hotel was outstanding. The staff are very helpful, attentive and kind. The butler staff were superior in all they have done ( Olga, Mohamed & Panos). I really recommend this hotel for anyone looking for quality, convenience and top notch services.

Location great… right next to the main pedestrian street Ermou and Syntagma Square (where the Parliament is). 24 min walk from Acropolis/Parthenon. 10 min walk to Plaka neighborhood. King George Tudor Hall restaurant for Dinner is Michelin star and amazing! I recommend not taking included breakfast for the entire stay especially since you can always decide to add it when you’re there (no need for reservations…this leaves you with the option to eat outside since there’s so much close by. BUT…I definitely recommend to try the hotel breakfast at least once…and after eating once you might decide to do it again like I did 😊!) All staff absolutely amazing!! Friendly and always there to help, and they go above and beyond

Can’t connect to your Netflix account directly from TV (only chrome cast available). But you can connect a computer via HDMI For swimmers only… indoor pool doesn’t have swim indicators on the floor so when swimming freestyle it’s hard to find where to do a flip turn (not impossible though), but swimming backstroke is way harder since there aren’t indicators (for example flags). Also pool area a bit dark so harder to see underwater. FYI, pool is with salt water (just a bit salty)

The Grande Bretagne is truly a beautiful hotel and we can't wait to stay again. The surroundings are so elegant and the staff were lovely . We loved the pool and leisure area as did our daughter . Phenomenal location . Highly recommended!!

We loved everything . Not that it was a problem but do let guests know about the 25 euro fee for thr car parking . Its great value but I think its best to let guests know in advance. Nothing negative to say !! One of our favourite hotels!!

staff were particularly friendly, attentive, professional & helpful. Particularly Maria in the restaurant & Paul at the concierge desk.

This is such a centric and beautiful hotel, the view is the Acropolis is breathtaking day or night. I don’t rate it a 10 because we had difficulty with the checking in, we were charged twice by the front desk and of course the credit card company thought it was fraud. We were then approached as if it was our fault that they charged it twice and the cc company block it all together. We were able to resolved it but the correction took several days of an extra charge of > $5,000 in our credit card in the middle of our family’s summer vacation. If one can avoid something like that happening to you, then one would have a phenomenal time at this gorgeous hotel in this iconic and historic city.

Staying at The Hotel Grande Bretagne, is a unique experience. When you are entering the hotel, you can clearly see from the beginning the meaning of luxury. The personnel is extremely kind and they treat everyone special. The room was really clean and the bathroom was gorgeous. The cleaning staff was very polite with us and they offered us chocolate and water once we arrived. The breakfast area was at the rooftop and the view was absolutely stunning with the variety of food options, making our mornings unforgettable. Last but not least, in the evening we swam to the pool that was fantastic. We would like to thank everyone for that pleasant stay and we are looking forward to visit Grande Bretagne again.

Everything was perfect

The location, view and overall facilities were excellent. It was old world glamour with modern conveniences. I would definitely stay there again.

The spa relaxation room opens into the restaurant which is above so all the noise comes into that area. It's not very relaxing. When you pay a lot for a spa you expect to be able to spend some time relaxing after your treatment without listening to a lot of noise.

The room is small . The insulation of the rooms is not good

location food service facilities

windows can be more sound proof to cancel the noise from the traffic
