By Stathis Kousounis
The King George Hotel in Athens’s central Syntagma Square will close for about two months this spring as it undergoes a technical inspection and completes a maintenance program, according to Tasos Homenidis, managing director of Lampsa.
The company, which owns the adjacent Hotel Grande Bretagne, has leased the King George for a period of 20 years from Eurobank.
The hotel, scheduled to reopen in the early summer, will also be inspected by Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, which is set to take on the unit’s management.
