Jan 13, 2025A Sumptuous Afternoon Tea in Fabulous Surroundings
In Athens for a very significant birthday celebration for my older sister, we all went here for afternoon tea. My word, this was such elegance and extravagance. The service was impeccable as you would expect and the afternoon tea sumptuous. Plenty of very high quality sandwiches, cakes, scones etc. A selection of teas was available as well as Champagne. This was a truly memorable celebration

What an incredible experience. From the gorgeous views to the delicious food, this was a trip to remember! Staff are extremely professional and accommodating. The chef was so hospitable and made each of our meals its own adventure! Highly recommend!

Jan 13, 2025Afternoon tea.
The hotel is beautiful however the welcome and the experience was less satisfactory. Prior to travelling to the Grande Bretagne for afternoon tea (booked for a Monday at 4PM), we called the hotel to enquire about parking and/or valet parking as we were accompanied by an elderly lady with restricted mobility. We were assured that valet parking was available and there would be no problems in stopping outside and having the car parked securely. On arrival, the concierge advised that no such arrangement was available and only after some 3-4 minutes of debate, did he agrees "exceptionally" to accommodate us. We were immediately shown too our table but I was a little surprised that no one offered to take our coats and instead, we had to leave them on adjacent chairs. The service was good but our elderly companion requested a light afternoon tea with the addition of a simple omelette but was told that this wasn't possible. A request for scrambled eggs was referred to the kitchen but the chef allegedly said that eggs could only be served at breakfast time. The serving staff apologised and referred the matter to a senior colleague who abruptly said "If you want eggs, you come before midday". We were astounded that a hotel of this standard, charging the prices they do, was unable to provide something as simple as a cooked egg. Our elderly companion, who was treating her guests to an Athens experience was extremely disappointed and felt it necessary to apologise to us for the poor experience. Overall - disappointing for the Marriott chain.

Rooms with City Views
Another great stay, excellent subtle service in a grand setting. Rooms were excellent, housekeeping perfect, concierge made several bookings for us, the renovated rooftop dining for breakfast and an afternoon cocktail is a real treat! And over new year its the best spot from which to enjoy the show!

5-star luxury hotel
This is a luxury hotel in the center of Athens. The location can’t be beat- it’s central to the square and you can walk to shops and stores. It was Christmas and the beautiful decorations and lights are in full display. We got a complimentary upgrade to a suite - we felt so fortunate! The suite is absolutely luxurious - a king size bed with super comfortable sheets and pillows , a full walk in closet with a safe, a huge bathroom with a shower and tub, and a separate living room. The suite came with a 24-hour butler who can help with sights, tickets and reservations. We felt so pampered at the hotel. Service was impeccable! Nothing to complain about and our stay reminded me of what it’s like to have the experience of a true 5-star luxury hotel!
