Located almost in the heart of Athens center, this majestic building is as much of a landmark as some of Athens most important ancient attractions.  Although no flashy entrance is there to greet you (its location sees to that), once inside it becomes clear why this 130-year old establishment has the reputation it does.  Everything is as opulent as one would expect, from the classic furnishings to the astounding bathrooms.
