Sitting in the Koukaki neighbourhood, this apartment places you a six-minute walk from the Acropolis – if that's not an ideal spot for sightseeing, we don't know what is. The living area is calm and inviting, opening onto a balcony where you can watch people watch on the street below. Both bedrooms are quietly comfortable, and lift access makes arriving with luggage painless. It's a solid base for Athens, whether you're here for a long weekend or a proper stretch.
