Technically two separate apartments, this home dominates the entire second and third floors of a historic building in Athens’ Plaka neighbourhood. Guests here can spread out between four suites, two living rooms (each with a double sofa bed) and two full kitchens. The crowning glory of these apartments has to be the private terrace which looks out to the Acropolis, rising above the city in ancient splendour. A hot tub can soak sore feet after a day exploring the myriad restaurants and bars in the narrow old streets of your Plaka neighbourhood.
