Nice to haves

This apartment in the centre of Athens feels like a rare gem. It’s not often we find a one-bedroom apartment, this central, with a big terrace and its own Jacuzzi. The apartment itself is a vibrant medley of modern artworks and slate-grey furnishings. In monochrome style, the kitchen has everything you need for self-catering. It’s the outside space that really takes the biscuit here – the terrace is shaded by the heat by pristine white awnings and there’s plenty of room on the rattan armchairs for drinks outside. Soak in the bubbling Jacuzzi at the end of a day exploring the ancient sites of Athens. 

Speaking of which, the old-world charm of the Plaka neighbourhood is just a fifteen-minute walk away where narrow cobbled alleyways are home to funky bars and rustic restaurants. The Acropolis is a further five minutes away, the crowning glory of Athens’ ancient history.

Best of all, this sophisticated apartment has a balcony where you can admire the panoramic city views. There’s even room for sun loungers and an alfresco dining table.

Ode to Athens

Small but perfectly formed, this Kolonaki apartment is a superb base for four. At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room but it’s still a comfortable home-from-home. The decor is modern and warm, and the home is equipped with everything you might need, including a convenient kitchen. In terms of location, you’ll be perfectly placed for walks in Lofus Likavitou, and close to several museums. Athens Concert Hall is just a short stroll away. 

Urban Nest

In the heart of the upscale Kolonaki neighbourhood, where concept stores, designer boutiques and independent galleries line the leafy streets, lies this penthouse apartment. And while the streets are bursting with the creative spirit of the city, this home provides a welcoming oasis – a light-filled space to unwind, rest and enjoy the views across Mount Lycabettus. 

Inside, you’ll find the owners have created an inviting setting for laid-back gatherings. From the minimalist furnishings and playful pops of colour to the open-plan design, it’s effortless to settle in and make this space your own. Gather on the balcony for morning coffees as the sun rises above the summit and gather for fresh breakfasts around the table as you map out the day’s plans. Where to start? Tour the Agios Georgios Chapel, peruse the artworks at Benaki Museum and catch a memorable performance at The Megaron Athens Music Concert Hall – or, march to the beat of your own drum and enjoy drinks at a jazz bar or Ouzo cocktails back home with the piano.

Apollo's Keys

Private balcony, breezy living area, central location – it's no wonder this apartment ticks all of our boxes. Plenty of room to spread out makes this the perfect pad for friends and families. The kitchen is well-equipped for whipping up home-cooked meals, the bedrooms have ample storage space, and the outside area is the cherry on top. You'll be a bit further away from the main tourist attractions if you're looking to explore historic Athens. That said, a metro a few metres away runs straight to Monastiraki, multiple green spaces are within walking distance, and the famous Lycabettus Hill can also be reached on foot.

Athens Embrace

Located in Athens’ stylish Kolonaki neighbourhood, this comfortable studio-style apartment is an ideal base for couples or solo travellers looking to explore the city from a calm yet central spot. Ideal for those visiting on business too, you’ll find a dedicated desk space in the sage green bedroom, as well as a little Juliet balcony – perfect for perching with your morning cup of Greek coffee as you map out the day’s activities. Take the funicular up Lycabettus Hill for jaw-dropping views over the entire city, spend an afternoon at the Benaki Museum or hop on the Metro to visit the famous Acropolis. 

After a day of touring the city, come back for a light bite at home courtesy of your kitchenette or set out to explore the many restaurants and bars on your doorstep before returning home for a restful night’s sleep. 


Demeter's Dream

Style and practicality go hand in hand at this apartment in upscale Kolonaki. You've got the area's designer boutiques, eclectic eateries and galleries on your doorstep, as well as the nearby funicular railway leading to the summit of Mt. Lycabettus. And while the scenery is undoubtedly better experienced outside this ground-floor home than in, the space is functional, with bedrooms that can be prepared as twins or king sizes to suit your group. It also serves well for those needing to work remotely with your host able to kit the space with an office chair, monitor and scanner alongside the speedy wi-fi.


Midas Spirit

Escape the crowds of Plaka and join Athenian's elite instead with a stay at this smart bolthole, set in the oh-so-chic neighbourhood of Kolomaki.

In a district renowned for its prestigious haute couture boutiques, there’s some serious spending to be done along nearby Voukourestiou Street. Or you could easily fill your day mooching about some of the city’s best museums and galleries dotted about Kolomaki’s well-heeled streets. When thoughts turn to meze plates and a crisp glass of Retsina, you’ll never go hungry here, with bars, ouzeries, and tavernas aplenty. Then hop on the metro station at Evangelismos (just 650 metres from the apartment) and blaze a trail to the Acropolis in five minutes flat. Or, if time is on your side, take a stroll through the neighbouring districts bound for Monastiriki  – there’s no better way to soak up the city’s atmosphere.

Back home, you’ll love how light and airy this home feels, with Juliet balcony windows ushering in a generous dose of daylight and high ceilings bringing all the wow factor. And while the traditional kitchen isn’t going to be scooping any design gongs soon, it’s perfectly apt for rustling up coffees and light bites. And let’s face it, with Kolomaki’s best restaurants on your doorstep, we suspect you’ll be eating out rather a lot.

Days are best spent on Monastiraki Square, where you’ll find Hadrian’s Library and the Ancient Agora.

Sitting at the foot of the Acropolis, the neighbourhood of Plaka is brimming with the cultural depth and warmth of Athens. 

Wander along the cobblestone streets and you’ll find this apartment located in a Neoclassical building dating back to the 1930s. And while the exterior sings with tradition, the interior provides all the comfort of a contemporary sanctuary. 

From the minimalist furnishings and open plan design to the snug bedrooms and little balcony, there’s everything you could need for a restorative stay in the city.

Wherever you are in this home, it’s the kind of space that brings ease and comfort to city living. 

Days can be spent strolling the central streets, admiring the architecture as you wind your way towards the Acropolis (just seven minutes away).

If this view doesn’t say Athens, then we don’t know what else will. From its high and mighty perch, the city’s most iconic landmarks are all on show – from the Archaeological Museum and the Lycabettus Hill, to the mighty Acropolis. It’s a panorama as sensational by day when the sun beats down on the city's Pentelic marble, as it is by night when Athen’s lights begin to twinkle.

Stepping inside, this oh-so-swish crib keeps bringing the wow factor – starting with that private gym, Turkish steam bath, and the free-flowing living area made for socialising. Lay the table for glamorous dinner parties (the nifty pool table converts into a dining table). Then keep the night flowing with a game of pool and cocktails at the bar to soak up the vistas.

When it’s time to dive into the warren of historic streets below, blaze a trail to Monastiraki (within walking distance of the apartment) – there are shady street cafes, vibey bars and authentic Greek tavernas just waiting to uncover. Or, if you’d rather escape the crowds, keep things local with an amble around the city’s largest park,  Pedion Areos, with panoramic views of the city – it’s just a five-minute hop, skip and jump away.

Landmarks like the Acropolis, Mount Lycabettus, and the Temple of Olympian Zeus are visible from the private balcony, which has space to sit out with a drink and enjoy wonderful sunset views. Both bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms separated by glass walls, so you'll find privacy somewhat limited. But the main bedroom suite boasts a private living room and a marble Jacuzzi tub. As this home is in a hotel building there are plenty of amenities and extra services, from a private chef to a communal gym and roof garden.

Athens Oasis

The buzzing atmosphere of central Athens is something everyone should experience one day, and this home is right in the thick of it.

From its wood floors to its rattan rug and leafy houseplants, there’s a feeling of warmth to the home’s carefully curated decor that feels instantly welcoming.

However, the star of the show is the veranda terrace, complete with an alfresco dining area.

Dazzling white walls adorned with art prints, wood floors and contemporary decor combine to create a welcoming impression in the open-plan living area. Ample natural light pours in through the glass doors that lead out onto a balcony. Start mornings here with a fresh cup of Greek coffee or enjoy a glass of ouzo as you people-watch from above before setting out to sample one of the local restaurants for dinner. With a sleek, pared-back bedroom and a rainfall shower to boot, you’ve got everything needed to enjoy city living in style. 

When you’re ready to venture out for some sightseeing, you’ll find plenty to see and do within easy reach. Visit the Acropolis Museum and the Acropolis of Athens, make a beeline for the Philopappos Monument and spend a few hours admiring the works on display at the National Museum of Contemporary Art. With Plaka a ten-minute walk away too, not to mention the Metro station just a couple of minutes on foot from your door, the Greek capital’s your oyster from this central base.
