We could look at those vistas all day, but we had better give you a tour around the rest of the apartment. You’ll find wood-style flooring tiles and contemporary artwork in the open plan living space, while up a few steps, there’s a dedicated workspace with a desk, ideal if you need to catch up on some emails or fancy writing a travel blog. This place is perfect for a family, friends or work colleagues. When you want to explore what you can see from your window up close, The Acropolis is a short walk away, while there’s an array of bars, tavernas and shops on your doorstep.
