If this view doesn’t say Athens, then we don’t know what else will. From its high and mighty perch, the city’s most iconic landmarks are all on show – from the Archaeological Museum and the Lycabettus Hill, to the mighty Acropolis. It’s a panorama as sensational by day when the sun beats down on the city's Pentelic marble, as it is by night when Athen’s lights begin to twinkle.

Stepping inside, this oh-so-swish crib keeps bringing the wow factor – starting with that private gym, Turkish steam bath, and the free-flowing living area made for socialising. Lay the table for glamorous dinner parties (the nifty pool table converts into a dining table). Then keep the night flowing with a game of pool and cocktails at the bar to soak up the vistas.

When it’s time to dive into the warren of historic streets below, blaze a trail to Monastiraki (within walking distance of the apartment) – there are shady street cafes, vibey bars and authentic Greek tavernas just waiting to uncover. Or, if you’d rather escape the crowds, keep things local with an amble around the city’s largest park, Pedion Areos, with panoramic views of the city – it’s just a five-minute hop, skip and jump away.
