Athens seen from the terrace of the Grande Bretagne hotel

Whether for a short stay or just the first stop on a long journey to discover Greece, Athens will amaze and fascinate the traveler. Cradle of Western civilization and democracy, today is a modern metropolis.

Mine was a short stay, just enough to discover the beauties of this city, and to make it more unique I chose a fabulous Hotel where to stay: the Hotel Grande Bretagne.

 
 
 
 

This Luxury Collection Hotel is centrally located in the heart of the city within walking distance of the main museums and commercial districts. A plus certainly much appreciated, is the stunning breathtaking view that can be enjoyed from the GB Roof Garden Restaurant & Bar.

 

 
 
 

From here you can admire the history of Athens at 360 degrees, the view extends uninterrupted on the Acropolis and the Parliament up to the Lycabettus hill. This scenic terrace is ideal for breakfasts or lunches but is a perfect location for a romantic and unforgettable candlelit dinner.
