Escape the crowds of Plaka and join Athenian's elite instead with a stay at this smart bolthole, set in the oh-so-chic neighbourhood of Kolomaki. In a district renowned for its prestigious haute couture boutiques, there’s some serious spending to be done along nearby Voukourestiou Street. Or you could easily fill your day mooching about some of the city’s best museums and galleries dotted about Kolomaki’s well-heeled streets. When thoughts turn to meze plates and a crisp glass of Retsina, you’ll never go hungry here, with bars, ouzeries, and tavernas aplenty. Then hop on the metro station at Evangelismos (just 650 metres from the apartment) and blaze a trail to the Acropolis in five minutes flat. Or, if time is on your side, take a stroll through the neighbouring districts bound for Monastiriki – there’s no better way to soak up the city’s atmosphere. Back home, you’ll love how light and airy this home feels, with Juliet balcony windows ushering in a generous dose of daylight and high ceilings bringing all the wow factor. And while the traditional kitchen isn’t going to be scooping any design gongs soon, it’s perfectly apt for rustling up coffees and light bites. And let’s face it, with... Kolomaki’s best restaurants on your doorstep, we suspect you’ll be eating out rather a lot.

About Athens
It’s impossible to miss the Parthenon in Athens, rising up over the city and illuminated at night. For most, these preserved columned ruins are the epitome of the ancient world. In the narrow streets of the city, you’ll find Byzantine churches, adorned with ancient mosaics, tucked in between street food restaurants serving gyros wraps and bakeries serving spanakopita.
