Amazing stay. The apartment was so lovely - modern, spotlessly clean, beautifully and tastefully decorated, and centrally located in what has to be one of the nicest neighbourhoods in Athens! We were 7 and there was still a spare room and bed in the gorgeous apartment. Marble floors with modern bathrooms, touches of decorations collected from all over the world, and what a gorgeous rooftop terrace! We spent every evening on the rooftop (which also has a second kitchen), taking in the views of the Acropolis and absorbing the cool evening breeze and looking down at the hustle and bustle of the city. Beds were really comfortable with amazing cotton sheets (much appreciated in 40 degree plus heat of summer!). Air conditioning in every room so no one missed out! All the additional and personal touches also made sure we felt like we were at ‘home’ - much appreciated after weeks on the road. Highly recommended for those looking to be close to the action (but where it’s surprising quiet - dead end street and no noise was heard from inside the apartment!). Didn’t feel like you were as central as you were - and you can definitely walk to almost all of the main Athens historical attractions.
Plaka is also a perfect neighborhood for exploring Athens’ history, with beautifully cobblestoned passageways and alleys with cute cafes and bustling restaurants (even with COVID travel restrictions!).
Thank you to Dean and Costas for the wonderful stay and being so hospitable!
