Wyndham Grand Athens

Our room on level 8 was very nice clean and modern, with good sound proofing, spacious showers and, very importantly, excellent Air conditioning over the summer heat. Breakfast buffet was on the rooftop terrace and very enjoyable with a good view towards the Parthenon (in the distance but still clear) and over the vista of Athens generally in many directions. Same restaurant has a very good view over Athens by night including to the Parthenon. Check in staff were very friendly and fluent in English.

The property is close to lots of shopping and restaurants. I needed a taxi to travel one way about 2 hours out of Athens and the cab was arranged and waiting at the curb. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent, with a variety of fresh fruit, pastries, eggs, bacon, yogurt, veg, juices…extensive. The restaurant directly across from the hotel is excellent. When we were there, there was a trio playing Greek music and on another occasion some Greek dancing broke out. Very nice.

From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond—upgrading our rooms and remaining incredibly helpful right up until the very last minute of our stay. They even extended our late check-out until 6pm to accommodate our evening flight, which made a big difference. One of the rooms was thoughtfully adapted to suit our children’s needs, including an extra bed added with no fuss at all. The complimentary bottle of wine waiting for us on arrival was a lovely touch after a long journey. Breakfast each morning—served with stunning views of the Acropolis—was a special way to start the day, with food options to suit all tastes. While the location is slightly removed from the heart of downtown, it’s only about a 10-minute walk, which we quickly got used to and actually enjoyed. For evenings when we didn’t feel like venturing far, there’s a fantastic and popular restaurant just in front of the hotel serving delicious food. Overall, a great stay made even better by the attentive staff and thoughtful extras.

We had a wonderful stay at the Wyndham Grand Athens. Our accommodations were comfortable and well-appointed, but the highlight of our stay was definitely the rooftop pool—the views of the Acropolis from up there are absolutely stunning, especially at sunset! It was the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring Athens. A special thank you to the reception staff, who were incredibly helpful and attentive throughout our stay. They went out of their way to accommodate our family’s needs and made us feel very welcome. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Athens!

Initially my wife and I were hesitant as the reviews were not good. But we took a chance and much to our surprise it was fantastic...the view of the acropolis was fantastic, but what made the trip so good was the great staff...trust me staff can make or break a hotel, and the boys and girls at Wyndam are exceptional, especially the lot at the roof top bar...they go out of their way to assist, and are just good natured...the front office people too were very helpful
