The Classical Baby Grand Hotel brings "a sense of New York in the heart of Athens" thanks to custom decorated rooms that were conceived and created by 10 contemporary artists. Hailing from urban art backgrounds including graffiti, graphic design and illustration, these international artists elaborate on the tendency of boutique hotels to individually decorate their limited number of rooms. Ranging in various styles, the rooms offered by the Classical Baby Grand Hotel will appeal to many, especially those who like to party, according to Conde Nast.
From psychedelic lobbies with repurposed Mini Coopers as front desks to minimalist, illustrated rooms, the Classical Baby Grand Hotel is vibrant, fun and full of energy--not to mention luxurious.
