                         You can disagree if you like but in my opinion the GB is the best hotel in Athens and I have stayed in a lot of them- Matt Barrett 
                        Listed in Conde Naste Traveler's 100 Best Hotels of the 
World, the Grande Bretagne is not just a luxurious hotel in central Athens. 
It is an historic landmark that has hosted the world's most well-known dignitaries 
and has been the scene of some of the most remarkable moments in Greece's history. 
                If you are looking for luxury in a centrally located hotel the 
                Grande Bretagne is the place to stay in Athens, Greece. Since 
                the renovations for the 2004 Olympics they have added a swimming 
                pool on the roof, another beautiful pool and state-of-the-art 
                health-spa in the basement, improved and added bars, cafes and 
                restaurants, enlarged the rooms and added to them DSL, Internet 
                TV, Pay-for-view movies, satellite TV and music and have 
                made a great hotel even better. But the best thing about the 
                Grande Bretagne may be the staff because you can do all the 
                renovations and have the best food and art in the world and the 
                most important memories a traveler will take home are of the 
                people he has met who made his visit easier and more enjoyable. 
                The Grande Bretagne has managed to find the best and the brightest 
                staff in Greece, from the people at the front desk all the way 
                down to the men and women who service the rooms.
