If you’re considering booking Androniki’s place - go for it!!! We cannot recommend it highly enough! Our accommodations here made our trip to Athens wonderful.
The location can’t be beat - you’re walking distance to most attractions downtown. With a quick 15 minute walk you can make it to the Acropolis, Plaka, Archeological Museum, etc. There are endless restaurants within a quick 5 minute walk (maximum) that are well worth a visit. We loved picking up breakfast at the “pie” place on the corner called Creme Royale. We also loved getting a sit down brunch just down the street at Just Brunch. We were close enough to Plaka that we could easily stroll there for an evening dinner reservation - or eat locally closer to the apartment. The nearby good food options are endless!
When I tell you the terrace will make your trip 10x better - I mean it! We spent so much time on the terrace at all times of day - morning coffee, mid-day hiding from the scorching sun, and evenings to enjoy the sunset and Acropolis views. The terrace is what makes this apartment truly magnificent and stand out from other Airbnb options in the area. It was our favorite aspect of our 4 day stay here. It’s absolutely huge and comes complete with a small bistro set, two reclining lounging chairs, and 4 seater outdoor dining set. We spent a ton of time out on the terrace! From the terrace you have a direct line of sight to a small rooftop bar down the street. It’s called The Artist and we highly recommend it! Walk into the lobby to make a dinner or bar reservation and enjoy the rooftop atmosphere with a cocktail in hand.
The couch is the comfiest thing in the world. We fell asleep there often after long hot days in the sun. And the A/C is a godsend! It works so well and kept us cool when we came back melting from being outside.
Lastly, Androniki is a spectacular host. We were in Athens on our honeymoon and she left us a sweet treat and bottle of wine as a welcome gift. She arranged private transportation for us to and from the Athens airport (about a 30 minute taxi drive). She was quick to answer questions and provide recommendations for her favorite local spots. She met us upon arrival to show us the apartment and welcome us to Athens. She was a joy to work with and a really great host to stay with!
