The 7 Most Luxurious Hotels in Athens
Elegance, opulence and prestige are the name of the game for an exclusive group of Athens hotels, which deliver on the promise of an all-round lavish standard of accommodation, dining, services and amenities. A stately decor is often associated with luxury, but so can be a boutique art hotel with a contemporary aesthetic. Personalized service is a must, starting from the booking process all the way to check out time, and sometimes even beyond.
Wyndham Grand Hotel
Why it made the list
A small oasis of luxury in an underwhelming part of town, the Wyndham Grand has managed to create a faithful clientele due to its discreet luxury and understated style, all the while offering a full range of personalized services at an affordable price range. All hotel rooms are done up in an upmarket Scandi style, and the presidential suite at 90 sq.m. is one of the more spacious in Athens. The cosy but luxurious aesthetic permeates the hotel which offers a spa, a fully equipped gym, parking, the excellent Fos restaurant and a remarkable rooftop bar and pool with Acropolis views.
Athens Hilton
Why it made the list
An architectural landmark for the city of Athens, the Hilton maintains its prominent position among all business-oriented establishments because of its successful mix of luxury and efficiency, thereby attracting its fair share of leisure travelers as well. The rooms are tastefully done with an air of modern minimalism, making them look light and spacious. An executive room will not only provide access to the Executive Lounge, but also to the fabulous Hiltonia Spa. The outdoor pool is the largest one of all Athens hotels, the rooftop Galaxy bar is a winner in its own category, the Vyzantino café is a meeting point for prominent politicians and Milos is one of the most celebrated seafood restaurants in Athens.
Electra Metropolis
Why it made the list
A recent arrival on the Athens scene, the Electra Metropolis pays homage to a retro chic ‘60s aesthetic while maintaining a feeling of lavishness and discreet luxury, starting from the remarkable comfort of the entry-level standard rooms and moving on to the breath-taking views of the Acropolis suites. The semi-precious onyx bar of the M bar and the fabulous rooftop pool using glass as a main material simply reinforce the point of luxury.
Hotel Grande Bretagne
Why it made the list
The opulence of the Grande Bretagne and the stately elegance of its rooms and public spaces remain unsurpassed in Athens. If you select to stay on the 6th or 7th floor rooms, your own personal butler will be on the ready to cater to your every need, while the top of the range GB spa and its unique wine library with the 19th century tasting table will provide hours of relaxation. The tradition of High Tea is faithfully observed in the Winter Garden City Lounge. At the GB Corner Gifts and Flavors shop you will find delicious organic Greek products to take back home.
