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.

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.

Now this is how you do a stay in Athens. From the unfettered panoramas of the ancient Acropolis to the hot tub on the private terrace, you can absorb the unparalleled beauty of this historic city from the comfort of your homestay. 

Wrap-around windows keep the Parthenon firmly in view – keep one eye on the alluring temple as you lap up Greek yoghurt with dollops of honey at the breakfast table or while you’re reclining on the sofa in the evening, a glass of wine in hand. 

When it’s time to embark on a sightseeing adventure, step out into the heady streets and begin with a stroll up to the top of Filopappou Hill, just five minutes from your doorstep. Visit the Prison of Socrates, the Ancient Deme of Koile and Deaf Man’s Cave. Have lunch under the orange trees at raved-about seafood spots, before soaking up the sunshine in the tranquil National Garden.

Single-Level Home

Throws

Nestled in the heart of Athens, within striking distance of the Acropolis, this modern home is a great base for those looking to experience all the Greek capital has to offer. Whether you’re travelling for business or pleasure, you’ll love coming home to this stunning city apartment, where you’ll find all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. 

We love the feel of the interior here – think warm tones and uncluttered rooms – but it’s the outside space that really caught our eye. Boasting not one, but two private terraces, this is the perfect place to unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. Pour yourself an evening aperitivo to sip as the sun goes down or rustle up your best home-cooked moussaka and dine al fresco under the stars. We don’t know about you, but that sounds pretty magical to us.

In the heart of Athens, this apartment makes for a superb base for exploring the city. The Syntagma metro station is just 600 metres away, but most of Athens’ main attractions are within easy walking distance, including the Temple of Olympian Zeus – it’s 1.2 kilometres away. It’s in one of the most prestigious parts of Athens, Kolonaki, surrounded by top-notch boutiques and eateries. Best of all, this sophisticated apartment has a balcony where you can admire the panoramic city views. There’s even room for sun loungers and an alfresco dining table. A city break with outside space – you get the best of both worlds.

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.

If this view doesn’t say Athens, then we don’t know what else will. From its high and mighty perch, the city’s most iconic landmarks are all on show – from the Archaeological Museum and the Lycabettus Hill, to the mighty Acropolis. It’s a panorama as sensational by day when the sun beats down on the city's Pentelic marble, as it is by night when Athen’s lights begin to twinkle.

Stepping inside, this oh-so-swish crib keeps bringing the wow factor – starting with that private gym, Turkish steam bath, and the free-flowing living area made for socialising. Lay the table for glamorous dinner parties (the nifty pool table converts into a dining table). Then keep the night flowing with a game of pool and cocktails at the bar to soak up the vistas.

When it’s time to dive into the warren of historic streets below, blaze a trail to Monastiraki (within walking distance of the apartment) – there are shady street cafes, vibey bars and authentic Greek tavernas just waiting to uncover. Or, if you’d rather escape the crowds, keep things local with an amble around the city’s largest park,  Pedion Areos, with panoramic views of the city – it’s just a five-minute hop, skip and jump away.

Top Pick

Located in Neos Kosmos, this stylish apartment feels like a sanctuary. It’s a wonderful space for families and friends to experience the unique history, artistic beauty and cultural depth of Athens.  

Just a ten–minute walk from the Acropolis, there’s a gentle presence throughout this home – it’s the kind of space that brings ease and flow to city living. With its soft lighting and natural tones, it’s the perfect place for respite, connection and relaxation. And whether you’re preparing your morning coffee in the kitchen or gathering around the table, there’s an uplifting quality to this home that makes you want to stay. 

Stepping outside, the neighbourhood is brimming with cafes, restaurants, bars and museums as well as a beautiful park – Philopappos Hill is only a fifteen–minute walk away. There’s also a lively farmer’s market on Fridays. And when your bags are full of fresh local produce, you’ll love coming home to this elegant apartment – it’s a wonderful place to celebrate the timeless beauty of Greece.

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	

Luxury Bedding

This bright and sunny apartment is in the perfect location for city breaks to Athens. You can stroll to the Acropolis in five minutes, and the incredible Temple of Zeus is six minutes away on foot. From this apartment, the city is walkable, but if you want to give your feet a break you need only walk seven minutes to the Sygrou Fix metro station – from there, the city is yours. 

After spending a day touring around the fascinating archaeological sites and the museums, returning to this apartment feels like a salve. It’s crisp, clean and calm. Despite its central location, it’s not directly above a hectic street so the balcony is a little haven. Sip cold beers while soaking up the last of the day’s sunshine before you head out for dinner. 

You’re right in the thick of things here so you don’t have to travel far for your next great Greek meal. Will you choose a lively bar or a family-run taverna? 


Liquid Gold

Located in Athens’ stylish Kolonaki neighbourhood, this comfortable studio-style apartment is an ideal base for couples or solo travellers looking to explore the city from a calm yet central spot. Ideal for those visiting on business too, you’ll find a dedicated desk space in the sage green bedroom, as well as a little Juliet balcony – perfect for perching with your morning cup of Greek coffee as you map out the day’s activities. Take the funicular up Lycabettus Hill for jaw-dropping views over the entire city, spend an afternoon at the Benaki Museum or hop on the Metro to visit the famous Acropolis. 

After a day of touring the city, come back for a light bite at home courtesy of your kitchenette or set out to explore the many restaurants and bars on your doorstep before returning home for a restful night’s sleep.
