Zena’s home is a hidden gem of Athens. Truly a wonderful place to spend time in Athens. First and foremost, you will not find a better view of Athens. It is absolutely incredible. Sitting on the patio, drinking wine, and watching the sunset is life changing.
The place is about a 10 minute walk from the Metro station. Super easy to get to everything. Just know there is some uphill walking. You also get away from the tourist traps and experience more of the local flavor. There was an amazing little taverna (“Stairwell”) bear our her place. It was one of the best meals we had in Athens.
With the place itself, there’s one queen bed in a bedroom, one double bed in a bedroom, and roll away beds if you need them. We wanted a place where everyone could have a bed (there were three of us). Two bathrooms. Lots of eating space inside and out.
Zena was super easy to reach. She met us upon arrival. The elevator is very interesting if you’ve never used a European small elevator before. Haha.
Bottom line, if you are coming to Athens for the first time like we were, you will not find a better view. Book it! Book it now. You won’t regret it.
