Promising views of the nearby Acropolis from the communal roof terrace, this Athenian apartment also boasts a little balcony of its own, so you can enjoy some one-on-one time. The 19th-century home of a famous Greek general, this apartment has a surprisingly romantic aesthetic with a four-poster bed and vintage accents. While the kitchenette is only really suitable for preparing light bites, wouldn't you prefer to dine out anyway? With Monastiraki Square sitting minutes away and several museums within strolling distance, all the wonders of the city await.
