If I could give Andreas more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. From the moment we booked, his communication was outstanding. He proactively reached out and helped us navigate a taxi strike on our arrival day, ensuring a smooth start to our trip. He personally welcomed us and shared thoughtful recommendations — every restaurant, whether off the beaten path or near the main sites, was exactly what we were looking for. Andreas went above and beyond by helping us make all our dinner reservations and making sure we felt completely taken care of by periodically checking in throughout our stay His apartment is immaculately clean, with a peaceful outdoor space where we enjoyed morning espresso and birdsongs — the perfect start to our days. The location was ideal: close to everything we wanted to see, but tucked away enough that it felt calm and relaxed. This was one of our best Airbnb stays ever, thanks to Andrea’s hospitality, attention to detail, and warmth. Don’t hesitate — book now.

We had a fantastic time at Ilias's apartment in Athens. The space was spotlessly clean and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. What really made our trip special was Ilias himself - he was an outstanding host who went above and beyond to help us with every need we had. His responsiveness and hospitality made us feel truly welcomed in Athens. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would definitely recommend this place to other travelers. Thank you, Ilias!

Great location and sleeps a lot of people. Some of the taxis had a difficult time dropping us at the front door. It’s a restricted area.

Theo was very helpful very good communicator and I would recommend a place to anyone that’s happy to stay with a group of friends in the heart of Athens

Can't beat the location right off Ermou street where lots of shopping is, easy walking to many of the city's attractions, several cafe and restaurants just outside and around the corner. Will definitely keep it in mind the next time we are back.

Absolutely stunning. The view from the apartment is second to none, and looks even better in real life compared to the photos. Within walking distance of many great attractions and restaurants. Quick to reply. All in all superb experience.

The apartment is wonderful, spacious and has many more amenities than described. It is a house with everything you may need. It is also very peaceful with beautiful balconies. It is ideal also for families with toddlers, there is a nice park nearby. We had a great stay!

We spent one week in Athens at this apartment. The area is lively and very close to the subway, restaurants, bars and there is a park on the hill, which only takes around 20 minutes by foot. From there, you have a marvelous view to the sea on one side and the acropolis on the other. Athens is a great city anyways and spending some time in this area was perfect for our visit. The communication was very friendly and super easy going, helpful and flexible.

The location was perfect- right in the heart of Athens with stunning view of Parthenon. Restaurants, shops and historical sites are few minutes walk .Our flight arrived early. Host was able to accommodate us to check in early. Apartment itself is perfect. Functional kitchen, comfy couch and AC. Exactly what we needed after long day of exploring. Highly recommend staying here if you want unforgettable view, convenience and comfort. Efthimis, thank you for your hospitality. U were an amazing host.

Truly the best view in Athens. I had such an incredible week at Xeni’s flat, it’s in a great neighbourhood, and it has such charm. I would stay here again in a heartbeat, and I wish I never had to leave! I fell in love with Athens. I never got to meet Xeni due to timing of my delayed flight but she was extremely understanding and had her friend meet me late at night. Much appreciated!

Highly recommend Peter’s spot! Super affordable, central location. It’s a bit busy but nice to be near all of the neighborhoods you might want to hang in. Peter went above and beyond to make our stay easy. He was always responsive and super kind. One bummer was that we woke up to loud construction right above us on our first morning. We talked to Peter about it, though, and it wasn’t a problem after that. Overall, great stay :)

This apartment is in a great location in the Plaka neighborhood of Athens. About a 12 minute walk to the Acropolis, near many restaurants and shops. It was a block off of the busier shopping street, so it wasn’t too loud at night. It was just the 2 of us, but plenty of room for 3. It is a second story flat (by US terms), but not steep stairs or too hard for us (mid 60’s). Nice terrace area with a lovely view of the Acropolis. Very helpful and responsive owners. They alerted us to a taxi strike and offered solutions to get to the airport for our very early flight. We would enjoy staying here again!

Apartment was very spacious with 3 full bathrooms. We were very comfortable, he left us with some kitchen basics and snacks. It was also very close to the major neighborhoods with so many restaurants and bars. 20 minute walk to Acropolis. Beware the steps to the apartment.

Very nice home. Thelma was always responsive and we had a wonderful time in Athens and her place was convenient for shops and food and we had taxis for our others locations. Close to the markets as well!

We had a fantastic stay at this apartment. The location is absolutely perfect; everything we needed was within walking distance, which made exploring the city super easy. The apartment itself was cute, clean, and cozy, and the views of the Acropolis were truly breathtaking — definitely a highlight of our trip! Our hosts were kind, welcoming, and very responsive throughout our stay. We also arranged transportation through them, and our driver was amazing: punctual, friendly, and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend staying here if you're visiting Athens. We’d love to come back!

Panos is an excellent host, very kind and generous. He arranged and paid for transport for us and airport pick up for our son on a separate date. He even gave us a lift home from a restaurant one evening and then we had a nice drink together. Panos and his family live on the floors above the Airbnb rental, which is on floors-1 and -2. The pool is excellent, although not large it is deep and has an “endless swim“ function that gives a great workout trying to swim against the current. The view of Athens is also amazing, especially from the -1 floor large picture window. Note that the -1 floor is open plan containing a double bed and the kitchen, but the -2 floor bedroom has a door for privacy. Steep hills nearby give you a serious workout when walking but taxis are reasonable (usually about 8-11 euros from the acropolis)

Staying at Manos' place really made our trip to Athens. The flat itself was beautiful, Manos was very friendly and helpful and the balcony was a great place to relax. Our favourite thing was the area, though. Just a few seconds from great bars, restaurants and a beautiful and buzzy square for coffee and cocktails from morning till late into the night. Even after exploring the centre of Athens or going for a day trip to the beach, we always came back to the area to eat dinner as there were so many great places to try. We especially loved Manu and the Blue Parrot. If you like a more chill area with loads of exciting nightlife - stay here!

The place was beautiful, very clean and cozily furnished with a great kitchen in which everything was available that you need for cooking and to make coffee in the morning. The roof terrace can only be reached via an elevator, but it is very private and you have an extremely great view over Athens. We felt comfortable and would come back again and again! As a single note: the location is very nice and quiet in a very safe neighborhood of Athens, but you really walk up a lot of stairs to get to the apartment.

Great place to stay with all of the major "best things in Athens" things on a reasonable walking distance. Neighborhood looks a bit odd upon arrival, but really needs a bit of exploration. Then you will find place for a good coffee, supermarket and some superb small plates restaurants just around the corner. The villa itself is great with the indoor swimming pool as an interesting asset. Its very spacious and neat, with nice outdoor places. Only minus is that there is only one shower on ground floor that really needs a bit of an upgrade. But with a dip in the pool as an alternative, not the worst thing that can happen. Overall a recommendable place to stay for an Athens city trip

An absolutely magnificent place! Hard to imagine that you can find a place like this in a large city! It was a short walk from restaurants, supermarket and the metro. Rooftop pool with great privacy was wonderful on hot days and also swimming at night with the city lights in the background. Rooftop terrace was overlooking the city and with views to Lycabettus hill and nature on the other side. On many evenings we ordered food in and ate at the rooftop terrace. We were a group of six and could not have been more pleased with our stay. Dimitris was very helpful and a great host!

We had a great stay in this appartment. It was large and well-designed. The neighbourhood is one of the nicest in Athens, with low crime and cute restaurants / bars. We were able to find convenient free and safe street parking nearby. The hosts were charming, helpful and also discreet. A perfect stay, we hope to come back!

Let me start with our arrival. We were late and it was dark. Our hostess, Mrs. Dimitra, was there to guide us through the check in. She was nothing short of an angel. The pictures of the place in no way does it justice. There is no camera wide enough to put the beauty that surrounded us every day, while we swam in the pool, into a single frame. Our daughter got married in the close by village of Areopoli. The people were very warm and friendly. We were treated like family. We had contact with many people throughout the week and on the day of the wedding and the walk through the village to the church they came out and lined the streets. Even passed out a drink or two. We felt like family. It was truly an adventure and Teo and Mrs. Dimitra absolutely made us feel right at home. I can't recommend this beautiful home with an amazing view enough. Thank you!

comfortable and accessible within walking distance to a number of restaurants and yet extremely quite The location is fabulous within minutes away by car to multiple of Athens best beaches The host was extremely friendly and informative and easy to communicate with. The unit is more of a serviced apartment/penthouse It could easily be my choice next time I visit Glyfada
