Constellations of the Gods Athina, Attica

Property Description

Athens is unparalleled when it comes to significant historical sights and cultural points of interest. Located within easy reach of the Acropolis, Hadrian’s Arch and the Temple of Olympian Zeus, as well as The Goulandris Museum of Contemporary Art, this apartment is the perfect base from which to explore the city’s historical and modern cultural sights.

Thanks to the sliding glass walls, you’ll wake up to impressive views across the city and even to the Acropolis – if you’d like to see a little further, there’s a telescope here. We love how this minimalist space is brought to life with colourful textiles and abstract artwork. Sip your morning coffee from the plump sofa as you plan the day’s itinerary before heading out to savour a Greek breakfast in one of Pangrati’s Greek delis.

Start your day strolling around The Botanical Museum of the National Gardens, then take the bus to Monastiraki Square, where you can spend the day exploring Hadrian’s Library and soaking up the energy of the square. Make sure to sample some local street food – our pick is the fried anchovies in paper cones.

Home truths:
*A high chair is available for free on request *The kitchenette is compact and better suited to light bites than larger meals – you've got plenty of restaurants on your doorstep, however *At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the fold-out bed in the living area *This home is in a central spot, so noise is to be expected *We recommend skipping the car and exploring Athens on foot or by public transport instead
