Situated in the lively Makrigianni neighbourhood, this eclectic studio apartment has Athens’ most iconic sights within easy reach. Inside, it’s fresh and modern thanks to the botanical print wallpaper, earthy colour palette and natural materials. Wake up feeling refreshed in the hotel-quality bed and start your mornings with breakfast in the neat kitchen-diner. Finish your morning coffee from the comfort of the loveseat.

When you’re ready to explore, the ancient Temple of Olympian Zeus is just a five-minute stroll from your doorstep and the mighty Acropolis is less than fifteen minutes away. Mosey through the National Garden to the Benaki Museum, then head over to the vibrant Psyri district for traditional Greek mezze in a laidback eatery after browsing the artisanal boutiques that line the atmospheric streets.
