Lock in a great price for King George, a Luxury Collection Hotel – rated 9 by recent guests!

to get started.

Great location without a balcony to get away from air conditioning. Staff very engaging

David, Australia

The service was excellent and the breakfast was fit for a king or queen!

George, Australia

Lovely location and great view from our suite of the Acropolis. Attentive staff and terrific air conditioning.

Great, India

The hotel was absolute luxury. The rooms were a generous size and the beds were very comfortable.

Djwebb82, Australia

We loved our return to King George! Fabulous hotel in the best location! We love the rooms so light and airy. The staff are so friendly. So professional! Thank you!

Stephanie, Australia

Location in Syntagma Square convenient to historical sites and museo

Richard, United States of America

The Hotel had the best bed I have ever slept in in my entire life!!!! Staff are lovely, professional, friendly and efficient and nothing is too much trouble. I stayed at this Hotel at the start of a two week visit to Greece and finished at the next door (sister) Hotel - Hotel Grand Bretagne. I have to stay, would choose this Hotel over the Hotel Grand Bretagne if I was to visit Athens again. You are able to use (and bill) all facilities in the next door hotel (gym and spa) which adds to the facilities at the King George. The staff are way more capable, friendly and professional.

Suzanne, Australia

The hotel and our suite was beautifully furnished. Location was great and our suite had a great view of the Acropolis. The concierge was helpful and provided good recommendations for dinner.

Jenny, Singapore

The room was great. Bed, pillows, and bedding were excellent quality.

Roger, Canada

Beautiful hotel with a fantastic staff and location. Walking distance to the Acropolis and many other interesting sites.

An Inside Look at King George, a Luxury Collection Hotel

Hotel King George was originally built in 1837 as S. Skouloudis's mansion by the French architect V.E. Poitrinaeu. After the owner's death in 1928, it was renovated and for a short period operated as an appurtenance to the palace and later on as the Prime Minister's residence. In the early 1930's the entrepreneur K. Kalkanis bought the property and demolished it. In its place he built King George Palace, following the architectural designs of N. Zouboulidis. The hotel opened in 1936 and one of his first guests was King George II. During the last restoration, in 1955, three floors were added, so the hotel took its final form in 1958. Thirty years later the hotel closed and reopened, after its latest renovation in 2004.

“I would chose this Hotel above the Hotel Grand Bretagne.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • 2 rooms
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉Location - not in the Plaka - therefore you have to walk about 10 minutes to be in the centre of the lovely part of Athens.
눇The Hotel had the best bed I have ever slept in in my entire life!!!! Staff are lovely, professional, friendly and efficient and nothing is too much trouble. I stayed at this Hotel at the start of a two week visit to Greece and finished at the next door (sister) Hotel - Hotel Grand Bretagne. I have to stay, would choose this Hotel over the Hotel Grand Bretagne if I was to visit Athens again. You are able to use (and bill) all facilities in the next door hotel (gym and spa) which adds to the facilities at the King George. The staff are way more capable, friendly and professional.

“Bad experience with checkout”

- • Submitted from a mobile device
눉Unfortunately, we had a bad experience with the checkout. We were leaving on the night flight and requested for a late checkout. After we called that morning and got confirmation of late checkout till 3pm, wethen decided to go out for lunch at 12pm. However, the reception then told us to checkout immediately as the hotel was full. When we raised the earlier confirmation, they disbelieved us at first, and then later claimed it was a miscommunication. They then said we could extend the room if we paid 50% of the full rate. So we had no choice but to checkout immediately by 1pm. The whole thing left a bad taste to the end of a great holiday.
눇The hotel and our suite was beautifully furnished. Location was great and our suite had a great view of the Acropolis. The concierge was helpful and provided good recommendations for dinner.
