Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Situated in the Thissio area, you're just a short stroll from the Acropolis of Athens, with many of the city's countless historical sights within easy walking distance. The apartment is full of charm and homey touches, but the real showstopper here is the prime location – and no wonder, with so many cultural landmarks to see, you'll barely have time to pour yourself a glass of wine before heading back out. But, when you do get a chance to enjoy those quiet in between moments, you'll have access to a divine private balcony to sit and relax. We can think of nothing better than balmy late afternoons spent out here, tucking into a bowls of olives, pitta and dips, as you debrief the day. Feeling rested and raring to go back out, you're a short trip from the old neighbourhood of Plaka, filled with quaint shops, boutiques and eateries for wholesome evening out, soaking up the city's local culture.
