King George, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Athens

If your idea of a vacation is staying in a rundown 18th century English country house, this is the place for you. Staff are very nice. We got upgraded to a suite. It was very clean and I’m sure was nice 90 years ago, but otherwise rundown. Otherwise, disappointing. Stay somewhere else.

Beautiful property. Great central Athens location, close to many of the desired destinations of the city. Walkable to Acropolis, the Plaka, Leucabettus Hill, Parliament and tour pickup spots. Amazing breakfasts and coffee with view of the Acropolis. Would stay again.

Where to begin? We had an A+ stay at the King George. Every detail, from the elegant rooms to the seamless service, made our visit unforgettable. The staff—from the front desk to the restaurant team to housekeeping—were consistently kind, helpful, and genuinely committed to ensuring our comfort. Breakfast was a particular highlight, with a gorgeous, unobstructed view of the Acropolis that felt almost surreal. We were truly impressed by the level of hospitality and beauty throughout the hotel.

Came to Athens for the first time with my family, and King George was the place to stay. The entire staff were all so helpful and never made us wait long for any of our request. Especially Katherine, from the Tudor hall staff. The continental breakfast was scrumptious and had a view of the Acropolis! Overall the service was great, and the rooms were very comfortable. All of the toiletries were Byredo products, very snazzy and exclusive to the hotel.

The location and service at this hotel is perfect. It is right in the main shopping district with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The service and accommodation is definitely up to Luxury Collection standards and was much appreciated. We really enjoyed access to the Hotel Bretagne next door. The two hotels operate as one in many ways. It was nice to be able to room charge our dinner at the Bretagne to our room at the King George. The spa in the Bretagne is amazingly relaxing and much needed after a busy day of sightseeing in the heat and crowds of Athens. The hotel has a steam room, an amethyst room, a sauna and what looked like a salt room. In addition, the indoor pool is very quiet and calm. Tudor Hall definitely deserves its Michelin star for the level of service we received just at the bar and at breakfast. I wanted to give a special thanks to Giannis Kostas in the bar in the evenings and Giannis during breakfast service in the mornings. Both gentlemen were exceptionally thoughtful in their service.
