About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The ideal house at the foot of Acropolis.

My apartment is a spacious and cozy place 63 square meters, perfectly located in the heart of the historic center of Athens, in the neighborhood of Thiseio, few meters away from Apostolou Pavlou pedestrian street. Acropolis Hill and Ancient Agora is only 10 minutes walking.
The location couldn’t be better.
The metro station is only 3 minutes away thats why it is an ideal getaway destination for someone who wants to explore the city of Athens.
The view from the shared rooftop (3 floors up by narrow, typical, back stairs) is spectacular. Guests can enjoy the privacy of the whole apartment which I always make sure to be clean and neat.
Whenever is in our hand, we will be glad to offer an early check-in or late check-out.

Irene was wonderful, the location amazing. I don’t think we could find a better location. The place was clean & comfortable. Great rooftop & balcony seating. Half a block to rooftop restaurants overlooking the Acropolis & a grocery store 1/2 a block in the other direction. We had a lovely stay.

Perfect spot in Athens!

Irene was the absolute best host! She went above and beyond to make us feel at home. The apartment was immaculately clean and had all the comforts of home. My daughter and I loved this apartment, and its location was a perfect mix of tourist and local. Irene also hooked us up with the best taxi driver. Defiantly recomend!

Fantastic location, view, and host!

This lovely apartment is in the heart of the area around the Acropolis, short walk to the site, Metro, and Plaka areas. Very clean, well-appointed and the host is phenomenal. She helped us find a trusted taxi for a very early morning flight, he was reliable and gave us great tips on things to see, do and taste. This is a true gem!

nice location

The picture that is seen with the statement The ideal house at the foot of the Acropolis is a bit misleading. It leads one to believe that is the view one will see within the apartment. However, one has to climb quite a few steps to get to this view. It was still a wonderful stay and Irene was most helpful.

Already attempting to get back here!

Spotless apartment very near everything you need with an amazing view of the Acropolis, especially at night. The hostess is awesome, and stayed in constant contact with us, often answering questions about transport or nearby amenities. The rooftop and balcony offered spectacular views. I have already decided Athens is a return trip and I will schedule it around the availability of this apartment!
