Preserved neoclassical details – high ceilings, ornate mouldings, and a living room that seats ten beneath pendant lights – give this Koukaki apartment a grandeur that feels earned rather than decorated. The Acropolis is a ten-minute walk away, while the pedestrianised Dionysiou Areopagitou promenade is even closer for morning strolls and evening walks beneath the city's most famous landmark. Back in the neighbourhood, independent cafes and local restaurants spill out onto the streets just beyond the front door.

About Athens

It’s impossible to miss the Parthenon in Athens, rising up over the city and illuminated at night. For most, these preserved columned ruins are the epitome of the ancient world.
