Modern Serenade

With its sleek black accents and moody graphite grey feature wall, this industrial-style apartment is a trendy landing pad in the north of Athens. The living area is functional yet comfortable – tend to dinner that is cooking in the kitchen before curling up on the soft sofa with a glass of Greek wine in hand. Downstairs, there’s a dedicated office space – perfect for remote workers and those who’d like to pen a postcard.

When you’re ready to explore, check out the National Archaeological Museum, a short bus drive away, then climb the Acropolis to admire the ancient Parthenon. Once you’ve worked up a thirst, head over to the Koukaki neighbourhood for its eclectic coffee houses and hip bars. Return home when the stars appear for a deep sleep in the hotel-quality bed.
