Planted in the heart of Athens, this apartment puts you within easy reach of the city's most visited corners – Syntagma Square is a six-minute walk, the Ancient Agora eight-minutes on foot, and the Acropolis a seventeen-minute stroll. The Syntagma Metro Station is two-minutes away, with direct links to the airport and Piraeus port making arrivals and departures straightforward. Back inside, a well-designed living space and two comfortable bedrooms offer a calm retreat after days spent among ancient ruins, bustling markets, and the neoclassical lanes of Plaka.

Home truths

  • If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot, high chair, and baby bath. You'll need to request them in advance.

  • One well-behaved pet is welcome to join you during your stay, at no extra charge. Pets aren't to be left alone in the apartment, and you'll need to bring their own bed – beds and furniture are pet-free zones unless agreed with your host in advance.

  • The wi-fi here can be unreliable due to local infrastructure – it may not suit remote work or video calls, and streaming in high quality may be hit and miss.

  • The washing machine is in the lobby rather than inside the apartment, so you'll need to head downstairs for laundry during your stay.

  • At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
