Baby Grand Hotel
65, Athinas & Lycourgou Street
Athens, Greece
Style: Modern Design
Atmosphere: Happening
76 Rooms
Text size:
Hotel designers far and wide strive for interiors that are hip and eclectic, but these days a few zebra-print pillows and some potted bamboo in a minimalist setting hardly qualify as edgy. Enter the Baby Grand, an Athens hotel that’s delightfully avant-garde, splashed with colorful artworks, and, yes, quirky nearly to the point of outrageousness.
The eye-popping entryway is a crash course in the hotel’s art-focused design scheme. The works are contemporary, of course, and there’s not a Rothko knockoff in sight — the Baby Grand is stocked with wall-sized graffiti paintings, cartoon-like murals, and vibrantly hued urban art that lend the interiors a gritty-chic look. Pick up your keys at reception, which isn’t a desk at all, but a pair of gleaming Mini Coopers, and, for the most unique experience, head for one of 55 graffiti guest rooms. Each is individually themed, so you’re just as likely to be surrounded by life-size fairy tale scenes as fantastical images of an enchanted forest. Too trippy for your taste? Sophisticated “classical” guest rooms are significantly toned-down, leaving the art to the public spaces. Down comforters, marble bathrooms, wireless internet, and satellite television are constants throughout the guest quarters, and suites offer separate living and study areas with plush furniture, large bathtubs, and balconies.
Needless to say, there’s nothing exactly ordinary about the Baby Grand’s offerings, not even the name of the restaurant (Meat Me, which serves modern Greek cuisine in a surrealist setting characterized by unusual details like iridescent tree leaves and glowing fluorescent glass panels.) The Moët & Chandon bar, in addition to offering innovative techniques for drinking from mini champagne bottles, is set in a whimsical space that manages to be both fashionable and warm.
How to get there:

I Liked
I liked the quirky arty style and bright colors. The staff were helpfull, informative, and kind. It was our first anniversary, and they sent champagne and sweets to our (free) upgraded room just after we arrived.
What the hotel could do better
Even though we did not put out the cards to have the sheets and towels changed, they were changed any way! We are trying to be green, but the room staff werent'!

the beds were extremely comforable.
What the hotel could do better
It looks quite shabby in the common areas. The doorman was not interested at all in helping us with our bags.

These reviews are posted exclusively by verified guests whose stays were booked through TabletHotels.com. We do encourage our clients to express their opinions, and what makes a hotel experience great is often something subjective, a matter of personal taste. At the same time, many of the hotels we list are extreme in one dimension or another, and are bound to disappoint somebody somewhere. These reviews are an excellent way to identify a hotel's particular quirks, and thereby avoid a poor hotel-guest match. But remember: if a hotel's overall customer rating falls lower than 15 out of 20, the hotel will be removed from our listings.
The opinions expressed in these reviews are solely those of our clients; the opinions expressed in any hotel management responses are solely those of the hotels themselves. We do not endorse any of the opinions expressed within the reviews, and we are not affiliated with any of the hotels in question. We reserve the right to remove any of the review or management response at our discretion.
