Just a stone's throw from the captivating Acropolis, with views of the majestic ancient ruins and historic landmarks that sit on the rocky outcrop above Greece's capital, this charming apartment welcomes you to immerse yourself in the rich culture of Athens.

With balcony views showcasing the Parthenon temple in all its glory, there's only one place to sip your morning coffee. After a leisurely breakfast, it's time to get up close and personal – ascend the steps to take a tour of the ancient buildings that were once home to Greek royalty. Exploring ancient civilisations is thirsty work, and lucky for you, there are plenty of pit stops around Athens. Stop by one of the many picturesque cafes in Plaka for a refreshing drink and homemade snack.

After a day of uncovering the secrets of Ancient Greece, head home, draw a bubble bath and get ready for dinner. Try your hand at cooking some local delicacies yourself in the kitchen and eat in front of the fireplace, or find a local restaurant serving souvlaki – either way, you won't regret it.
