This modern apartment is an ideal base in the historic centre of Athens. It’s a great choice for friends or family, as everyone can enjoy their own space but still come together in the communal spaces. It’s a simple, clean and comfortable home-from-home, with everything you might need during your city break. Best of all, you’re in the heart of the city – the Parthenon is just 450 metres away, and you need only walk 550 metres to admire the Acropolis. There’s also a metro station just a few steps away, so getting around is as easy as can be.
