To me and many other visitors to Athens, Greece, the grandest hotel is the Hotel Grande Bretagne   and it is always chic to have a Grande Bretagne’s Tequila Old Fashioned cocktail at the bar just off the lobby, Alexander’s Bar. The bar is just through the luxurious hotel  lobby. The sumptuous decor  envelopes you as you sip on one of the hand-crafted cocktails.  A sense of old world comfort and hospitality can be found here making this bar and hotel in Athens a favorite of well-to-do travelers and those in the know. Stay in one of the large, comfortable, damask, silk and marble-covered rooms or suites  and awaken to dress for breakfast served at the Grande Bretange’s Rooftop Garden restaurant. Dine on the the terrace for the most incredible views of the Acropolis.hc Alexanders Bar1
