Royal Suite at Hotel Grande Bretagne, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Athens
A landmark in Athens since 1874, Hotel Grande Bretagne is known for its formally attired butlers, antique-filled suites, and long list of notable guests (Winston Churchill and Bing Crosby among them). The 4,305-square-foot Royal Suite (from about $18,500 per night) is as lavish as it is large, adorned with fine artworks, an antique piano, and a collection of tasseled, brocaded, and gilded period furnishings. Views of Syntagma Square and the Acropolis are always on display, whether couples enjoy them over meals of slow-cooked lamb in the dining room or during a workout in the private gym. Pair a vintage from the suite’s 300-bottle wine cellar with a Montecristo, Cohiba, or Partagas from its private humidor.
Romance Factor: In the suite’s master bathroom, a steam shower, Ionic columns, and a vibrant blue-marble bathtub make for the ultimate Greek spa experience. (grandbretagne.gr)
