The Hotel Grande Bretagne in Athens is a sight to see itself. The creme de la creme. It’s the kind of hotel where you can wear a ball gown to dinner and high heels to the pool. Every detail is perfect and beautiful, down to the mat and slippers next to your bed…

It will probably be another ten years before I stay in a hotel this nice, so I’m glad I have these photos as proof that for three amazing nights, we were total ballers.






















I WANT TO GO TO THERE.
Wow!!!! It looks amazing. The view! The chandelier! The headboard! The little honey pots! I love hotels. It’s the Eloise in me.
P.S. Whatever you’re wearing in the mirror photo looks darling!
I can’t even formulate a coherent comment – OH MY GOSH! This seriously was the trip of the lifetime. Great photos!
holy moly, you really did this trip right. you lucky ducks.
Gorgeous! I’ve always wanted to wear heels to the pool! It may be rediculous, but it has always sounded fun to me! I’m so glad you ate it up while you were there!
I love these! Everyone deserves to be a total baller at some point, even if only for one night. =]
WOW!! I’m jealous!
How beautiful! I love the view from the balcony at night!
Beautiful place! You guys had amazing views!
