City-break lovers, this one’s for you. You couldn’t ask for a more central location than this sixth-floor apartment right next to Syntagma Square, on one of Athens’ most affluent pedestrian streets. There’s a great city view from the balcony, and while the sofa bed two guests will be sleeping on might not be suitable for long stays, it’s a comfortable and roomy home for such a great setting. Most importantly, you’re within easy walking distance of all of Athens’ top attractions. 

Eclectic Athens

With breathtaking views over the Acropolis and city skyline, this home is a real gem. Watch the sunset over the Acropolis with a glass of Greek wine on the private balcony, or head up to the shared roof terrace for the incredible 360-degree vistas of Athens – we could spend hours in either space. Housed in a recently built building, inside you'll find a stylish living space with cool greys and fresh whites. This place is ideal for friends, family or business professionals.

Located in the pretty, artistic neighbourhood of Mets, there are plenty of restaurants and bars on your doorstep. The Panathenaic Stadium, home to the first modern Olympic Games in the 19th-century and made of marble, is a ten-minute walk away or five minutes in the car. If you want to see the Acropolis up close, then it's a ten-minute ride.



Sunset Over the Acropolis	

Dressed in beautiful earthy tones and boasting a singularly bohemian touch, this bright apartment in Athens’ Neos Kosmos neighbourhood offers a central, stylish stay in the city. 
 
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. We love how much natural light fills the open-plan living area, thanks to the glass doors that lead out onto a private balcony. Sit here each morning with your cup of coffee while taking in views over the neighbourhood’s rooftops, or gather at sunset for an alfresco sundowner before enjoying a meal around the dining table for an at-home feast. 
 
The two bedrooms, too, are just as chic with their luxuriously dressed beds and balcony access, while the bathroom’s rainfall shower and whirlpool tub offer the perfect relaxing bookends for any day. 
 
When it comes to exploring nearby, head to the Temple of Olympian Zeus – a thirteen-minute walk – or make a beeline for the famous Acropolis of Athens, a seventeen-minute stroll away. You’re also a fifteen-minute walk from both Hadrian's Arch and Philopappos Hill, while Monastiraki Square is twenty-six minutes on foot from your door. 

Dawn of Gaia 

Ideally located just a block away from the Acropolis Museum, there’s no shortage of cultural and historic must-sees on your doorstep here. From the Acropolis of Athens itself to Hadrian's Arch, the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the Philopappos Monument, there’s a wealth of sightseeing opportunities within easy reach, just waiting to be explored. 

After a busy day of touring the city, you’ll be glad to come home to your comfortable pad where a private balcony beckons sundowners and alfresco dinners when you’re not out sampling the local tavernas and restaurants. Should you need to catch up on work, your host is happy to provide all manner of office equipment, while the bedrooms – classically and carefully decorated – wait to ease you into a restful night’s sleep with the promise of more adventures to come. 


Eleos

This modern apartment is an ideal base in the historic centre of Athens. It’s a great choice for friends or family, as everyone can enjoy their own space but still come together in the communal spaces. It’s a simple, clean and comfortable home-from-home, with everything you might need during your city break. Best of all, you’re in the heart of the city – the Parthenon is just 450 metres away, and you need only walk 550 metres to admire the Acropolis. There’s also a metro station just a few steps away, so getting around is as easy as can be. 

The Historic Haven

Bright, stylish and full of thoughtful details, this homely apartment offers everything you could hope for from an Athenian getaway. Fall in love with the central location, just ten minutes from the ancient Acropolis, and spend your downtime soaking up the sun on the balcony or whipping up Greek-inspired grub in the bright kitchen.

Parquet floors and exposed brick bring a cosy old-time feel to the home, while modernity is achieved through sleek Scandinavian-style furniture and a fresh colour palette. Enjoy quiet evenings curled up on the sofa as your favourite film streams on Netflix, then retire to the restful bedroom after a sip or two of ouzo.

Located in the bustling Koukaki area, this chic pad is within easy reach of the capital's best eateries and must-see historic sights. Stroll into the neighbouring Plaka, one of Athen's most popular spots, and create long-lasting memories among the eclectic cobbled streets.

Brick & Honey

Wow, wow, wow was all we could say when we saw the incredible views of the Acropolis from both this home's living space and terrace. They are fantastic any time of day, but we particularly love the vistas at sunset and then as dark approaches when Greece's most famous monument is all lit up. It’s a divine spot for a glass of wine.

If the weather turns chilly, head inside and gather around the fire or whip up a Greek meze in the modern kitchen. We could tell when we visited that this home has undergone a thoughtful renovation by your hosts.

Located in Plaka, there are plenty of tavernas, bars and shops nearby to enjoy. Or visit the Acropolis Museum, around a fifteen-minute walk away.



Acropolis Metropolis

This sunny duplex apartment is a short walk from the Acropolis – you can even catch a glimpse of it from the fabulous rooftop terrace. Up here, you’ve got views out over the rooftops, best taken in from the warmth of the bubbling hot tub with a glass of something cold. There’s plenty of room for the group to spread out on bean-bag chairs too. 

Inside, a soothing medley of crisp white and slate grey keeps things feeling modern and sunny. We love the tropical feature wall in the living room which adds a pop of colour and vibrance. The compact kitchen with pretty emerald tiles has all the essentials for self-catering and there’s a second outdoor space for dinners on the balcony. That’s if you’re not too busy exploring the meze restaurants of the Plaka, a five-minute walk away. But the real highlight of this apartment is how close it is to the Acropolis, just four minutes on foot to the entrance. 

God of the Sun

A stay at this sleek top-floor apartment places you in a prime position to explore the countless points of interest in the historically and culturally rich Greek capital, Athens. With the Acropolis of Athens, the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the Philopappos Monument all within a short walking distance, you’ll be fully immersed in the city’s history within moments of leaving your apartment.

Speaking of your apartment, you'll love unwinding in this modern space – the sliding glass walls make this space feel bright, whilst the sleek furnishings are comfortable and stylish. The free-flowing layout makes this space feel like a social sanctuary – there's a large living room to gather as you map out the day’s itinerary, a sleek kitchen for whipping up some tzatziki, olives and briam vegetables, and a rooftop terrace to share your light bites and a glass of Vidiano whilst overlooking the illuminated Acropolis at the golden hour. 

When you’re ready to check out the city sights, you’re right in the Athenian cultural hub, named ‘Little Paris’ in the 1980s, where neoclassical buildings have been transformed into independent boutiques and eateries. And at the end of a sight-packed day, enjoy a warm-hazed walk home – you’ll be ready to sink into the soft sheets of your minimalist bedroom.

Koukaki Calm

When it comes to location, you'd struggle to find an apartment more conveniently located than this one. Nestled right in the heart of Athens, it provides easy access to the ancient city's most famous attractions, and plenty of space to unwind between your sightseeing excursions. 

The interior is a fusion of classic charm with a modern twist. When you need to refuel, you can whip up some home-cooked Greek favourites in the kitchen to share at the chic dining table. Afterwards, head out onto one of the two balconies to enjoy a glass of Greek wine in the sunshine. Or, if you're visiting during the colder months, you can curl up beside the fireplace and get cosy. 

From here, the iconic Acropolis is just a ten-minute stroll away, as is Philopappos Hill. Once you've admired the stunning views of the city and soaked up the sense of history, you can learn even more with a visit to the National Archaeological Museum – it's a twenty-minute bus ride away. And, when you need to refuel after a long day, you can take your pick from the charming local restaurants serving classic dishes.

Myth & Ritual

On the edge of the Koukaki neighbourhood with the Acropolis beckoning in the distance, this penthouse apartment transports you to the vibrant heart of Athens. And while the streets are brimming with the creative spirit of the city, this home provides a welcoming sanctuary – a simple space to unwind, rest and enjoy the views across the skyline. 

Inside, you’ll find the owners have created the perfect setting for laid-back gatherings. From the minimalist furnishings and cool grey tones to the open-plan design, it’s easy to settle in and make this space your own. 

Wake up early and watch the city come to life from the balcony, relax in the air-conditioned bedrooms and gather for Greek-inspired meals around the table. And when you’re refreshed and ready to explore, you’ll find the ancient sights, bustling restaurants, cafes and bars on your doorstep. 

Take the ten-minute stroll to the Acropolis, savour the atmosphere from a traditional taverna and watch the sunset from Philopappos Hill. Wherever the day takes you, this is a wonderful spot to connect with the authentic heart of Athens. 

Apollo Sun

Wow, just look at the views of the Acropolis from this home’s roof terrace – it’s a beautiful vista both day and night. Enjoy the outlook from the hot tub or the outdoor sofa with a sundowner. This place is ideal for a family or group of friends as there are two lounge areas and six bathrooms. We have to say, the location is as impressive as the house itself. You are located in perhaps the best spot in the city. It’s situated in Filopappou, a short walk from the Acropolis, the Parthenon and the Temple of Athena Nike, among many other iconic landmarks. This home and its prime address will allow you to create some special memories.
