Description Apricot Blossom: Athina

Sitting under the watchful eye of the ancient Acropolis, this no-nonsense apartment occupies an enviable position in the heart of Athens. You’re within walking distance of some of the city’s best-loved archaeological sites, including the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Zappeio Roman Baths and Tower of the Winds. When it’s time for something to eat, you’ll find endless restaurants, cafes, bars and traditional tavernas just footsteps from your doorstep. Should you fancy venturing further afield, the Acropoli metro station is conveniently close by.

Inside your home, expect calming pops of blue and an open-concept layout that creates both functionality and flow. After treating yourself to an extra long snooze in the comfortable bed, knock up a quick breakfast at the kitchenette then enjoy on your private terrace in the glorious sunshine. While away the hours on a lounger with a good book in hand until a violet sky marks dusk over Greece’s atmospheric capital.
