Description Pearl of the Sky: Athina

Just take a look at the Acropolis views from this apartment's balcony and you'll see why it caught our attention. There are also vistas from inside, and there's access to the balcony from one of the bedrooms – name a better way to wake up each morning. The kitchen is galley style, relatively compact and somewhat dated, but it has everything you need. And, of course, you'll be located in the heart of Athens in one of the most upmarket districts of the capital and just steps away from restaurants. You'll also find nearby boutiques, museums and a metro station easily accessible on foot.

Home truths:
*The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents. Expect to bump into your neighbours during your stay.
*Although there's a lift here, there may be a few steps to this home's entrance.
*The kitchen may be a bit dated for most guests. It's also quite compact, so we think it's best for rustling up light bites.
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. Light sleepers might want to pack earplugs.
*There's a desk in one of the bedrooms if you plan to work from home.
