Centrally located in Athens’ upscale Kolonaki neighbourhood, this modern apartment puts you in a prime position to explore the city’s sights with the Benaki Museum (160 metres away), Syntagma Square (600 metres) and the Acropolis (2 kilometres) within easy reach. The apartment is a little dark for our liking with no external windows in the open-plan living area and the decor is more corporate than characterful which may not be to everyone’s liking. That said, a small balcony is a nice touch, as is the sleek bathroom with its rainfall shower. And with your host able to organise a plethora of concierge services, including tours, spa treatments and yacht charters, you’ve got plenty to keep you occupied during your stay.
