The buzzing atmosphere of central Athens is something everyone should experience one day, and this home is right in the thick of it. Situated a four-minute walk away from the street leading to Acropolis – one of Athens famed archeological treasures – and only a twelve-minute walk from the busy area of Monastiraki, where you'll find lively bars and cafés, a stay here will put you in an ideal location to explore the wonders of this historic city. But when you're inside the apartment you wouldn't think you're in central Athens, with street noise being completely cut off from this third-floor home. So for the days when you want to relax in the lounge and enjoy the natural light flooding in from the oversized windows, you'll be pleased to know you'll have your own sanctuary in the heart of the city. But the real gem of this home is the private balcony, which feels like a slice of Middle Eastern paradise in Southern Europe. Whether you want to read a book and enjoy the Greek sunshine, or marvel at the lights of Acropolis and the Parthenon from your balcony at night, we guarantee you'll be spending a lot of time here.
