With impressive views of Athens’ Acropolis from this penthouse rooftop, you’ll want to spend mornings admiring the architectural remains with coffee and nights under the stars watching the moon illuminate the ancient citadel. And since it’s only a short walk away, prepare to climb the steps and discover the remains of the high city, Parthenon temple and ancient citadel that dates back to the fourth millennium BC. We love the modern designs and clean finishes here – from the crisp palette of cool greys and whites to the thoughtful choice of contemporary furnishings. We particularly love the statement pendant light that creates a uniquely inviting ambience above the sleek kitchen, where we imagine you’ll throw together an array of Greek dishes after a day exploring the cobblestoned streets of Plaka. Though with a barbecue on your rooftop, you might want to grill up some seafood and dine under the constellations.
