Ask for a room with a balcony overlooking Syntagma Square, the Parliament building, and the Acropolis.
Insight Guides "Perhaps the most famous hotel in Athens, oozing history and class, the Grande Bretagne on Sýndagma Square dates from 1846."
Concierge "While some might argue for the Parthenon, more modern types agree that the most enduring luxury address in Athens is this 321-room hotel on Syntagma Square."
Fodor's "The landmark Grande Bretagne remains the most exclusive hotel in Athens... you may very well think it is the very best." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The central location is perfect—opposite the Parliament Building and overlooking Syntagma Square." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Originally built in 1842 for King Otto, the Grande Bretagne has always been Athens’ most exclusive hotel."

Star Service "Located next to the Syntagma metro station and the E95 Airport Express Bus stop, this is the grande dame of Athenian hotels, a refined yet modern hotel, with a rich history of entertaining dignitaries." Full review
