Our stay at The Penthouse under the Acropolis was the best choice ever! We wanted a place to stay that was close to everything, wasn't generic and touristy, but most importantly gave you the feel of "living" in Athens. The Penthouse is the perfect place!

Being situated in Plaka, but right off of on one of the main streets (it was quiet) gave us the perfect place to efficiently spend the very few days we had in Athens. It provided a central location to go back and forth to from the Acropolis, Museums, Monasteraki, Syntagma, Ermou, Plaka shopping and tavernas, etc. The Acropolis Metro stop is within walking distance! You can also easily catch a taxi from the main road walking less than 2 minutes!

We were welcomed by Andreas' cousin Bobby who explained to us the whole apartment and gave us keys. Bobby was wonderfully helpful! Andreas was also very helpful and professional in answering all of our questions via e-mail before getting to Athens.

The Penthouse is exactly as the pictures show and was very clean! The wrap around balcony provided excellent views to relax to (once the August sun had set)! However, if you're getting away from the mid-day, Athenian, summer sun, you could have a coffee and relax comfortably in the beautifully decorated living room! The whole apartment is comfortably air conditioned.

The Penthouse is located in a quiet building, so no one disturbed us. There's access to the top floor via a small elevator, or you can take the stairs.

My only regret was not booking our trip with more days in Athens so we could spend more time staying at the Penthouse under the Acropolis!
