The Sovereign Heart of Hellenic Hospitality Since 1874

For over a century and a half, Hotel Grande Bretagne, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Athens has stood as an enduring symbol of European grandeur, welcoming royalty, heads of state, and discerning travelers to the historic center of Athens.

Positioned on Syntagma Square directly across from the Greek Parliament, this eight-story neoclassical landmark radiates 19th-century royal refinement from the moment you step into its magnificent lobby adorned with crystal chandeliers, marble floors, and museum-worthy tapestries.

Each of the 320 rooms and suites marries old-world aristocracy with modern digital luxury, dressed with handpicked silks, cloud-soft Luxury Collection beds, and antique furnishings acquired from Christie’s and Sotheby’s. All 58 suites enjoy personalized, 24-hour dedicated Butler Service, ensuring an impeccably orchestrated stay down to the smallest detail.

Crowning the hotel is the world-renowned GB Roof Garden Restaurant & Bar, where diners savor New Mediterranean cuisine while gazing out upon the illuminated Acropolis, the Parthenon, and Mount Lycabettus. The tranquil Winter Garden atrium offers European light dining and the city's finest afternoon high tea accompanied by live piano, while the 7th-floor outdoor pool provides a serene sun-drenched sanctuary high above the capital.
