Guest Reviews
- Helen (10/5): - Loved it. Excellent location.
- Martina (9/5): Eine hübsche und sehr bequeme Unterkunft in perfekter Lage! - Das Zimmer war hübsch eingerichtet und sauber. Es war jedoch nicht so groß, wie angenommen. Die Lage ist perfekt zur Erkundung der meisten Sehrnswürdigkeiten, die fußläufig erreichbar sind. -

- ΔΡΑΚΟΣ (10/5): - Άριστα
- Alexia (10/5): Beautiful apartment in the perfect Athens location, stylish, comfortable and surrounded by the vibrant energy of Athens. - We had a wonderful stay at Ancient Agora Apartments. The location was absolutely perfect, right in the heart of Monastiraki with everything within walking distance including Plaka, the Acropolis, restaurants, cafés and the metro. The apartment was spacious, clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated with a lovely balcony atmosphere. Communication with the host was excellent and check-in was very easy. It was the perfect base for our stay in Athens. Although we had read reviews mentioning noise due to the central location, we honestly didn’t experience any issues, even over the weekend. We actually enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere and energy of the area.

- Daniele (10/5): Esperienza meravigliosa - L' appartamento in stile moderno situato nel centro di Atene Nulla da segnalare
- Vito (10/5): - Posizione nel cuore di Monastiraki. Pulizia impeccabile. Appartamento confortevole e accessoriato di tutto. Non possiede una reception ma l' host è stato subito disponibile a darci tutte le informazioni necessarie. C'è la possibilità di lasciare i bagagli all' interno della struttura. Consigliatissimo!!
- Esther (10/5): Great stay in the center of Athens - The location is great and the appartment very cozy and nice! We would definetely recommend staying here.
- Fragiskou (10/5): -
- ASVESTAS (10/5): -
- fadda (10/5): Bella città, accogliente. Ottimo cibo nelle varie trattorie, non quelle turistiche, ma quelle dove mangiano gli ateniesi - Posizione eccezionale per visitare Atene Niente
- Enrica (9/5): -
- Etje (8/5): -
- Måns (10/5): - Perfect location.
- Tassos (8/5): -
- Michael (9/5): Schön renoviertes Studio mitten in der Altstadt - Schönes Studio wenige Schritte von der Metrostation und von der Agora (sehr empfehlenswert), auch zur Akropolis kann man direkt zu Fuß gehen. Die Küche ist nicht wirklich zum Kochen ausgestattet und es gibt nur einen sehr kleinen Tisch. Manchmal live Musik im Restaurant gegenüber bis Mitternacht, aber uns hat das nicht gestört.
- Alexandra (9/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): Great location for navigating many of the historical and popular sites in Athens. - It was clean and comfortable.
- Jane (8/5): Nice apartment - Good place to stay for the evening; clear communication, clean, in the heart of the city, close to the metro. Out of the hosts control but the property is surrounded by bars and restaurants; we booked thinking that it would more quiet after midnight, try 3am with thumping music from a closeby bar. Ear plugs were provided which was thoughtful of the host. The balcony also overlooks the restaurants, so you are looking at patrons etc
- Andriana (8/5): -
- chiara (8/5): molto confortevole, ottima posizione -
- KENNETH (7/5): - The apartment was clean and close to a lot of the tourist sites The apartment is above a bar and so it was quite noisy into the night.
- Vidal Hospital (7/5): Apartamento agradable y céntrico - La ubicación y la atención del encargado ante un problema que tuvimos El ruido excesivo de la calle, faltaría una lámpara de pie que concentre la luz para poder leer, etc y.
, por último, las cortinas no oscurecen la estancia para poder dormir con más oscuridad
- ste2121 (10/5): - Πολύ βολική τοποθεσία για οτιδήποτε έχετε σχεδιάσει,το σπίτι εξαιρετικά καθαρό,η ευγενια και η επικοινωνία ήταν άριστη από τον οικοδεσπότη.ευχαριστουμε και πάλι !
- Rizwan (10/5): - Excellent location and host was available for when needed and responded promptly!
- Alessia (10/5): -
- Fevzi (10/5): -
- VDippel (10/5): - Sehr gut Lage. Einchecken problemlos. Nahe an der Metro. Guter Kontakt zum Vermieter. Es hat an nix gefehlt. Obwohl es in der City ist, ist es ruhig und gemütlich. Im Winter funktioniert die Heizung.
- ian (10/5): - Location and space. Much bigger than expected. Walking distance from all the best sites Nothing
- Hamid (10/5): Everything was top notch! -
- BOLLIET (8/5): -
- Zhu (10/5): -
- Sharon (10/5): Great location, really comfortable space - Great location, large comfortable space Didn’t bother us, but could be difficult to sleep if you’re sensitive to noise
- Maddalena (10/5): Appartamento carino in piena vita! - Posizione stupenda ( basta non voler dormire presto.. si sta nel linea della vita!) è arredato in modo molto funzionale Niente
- Marian (10/5): Exceeded our expectations - Excellent location!
- cauvin (9/5): Superbe - Très bel appartement bien rénové et spacieux, bien isolé même si le quartier est bruyant, mais si on cherche du calme il ne faut pas loger dans le centre ville! idéalement situé, au cœur de la ville, des ruines et des restaurants, plein de fenêtres sur l’extérieur, les hôtes sont réactifs et arrangeants, on recommande vivement Il faut anticiper un peu l’eau chaude comme souvent en Grèce, mais quand on est en vacances ce n’est pas dramatique!
- nathalie (4/5): Mignon mais trop bruyant - Joli studio à 2 pas de l’acropole. Le bruit impossible à supporter. Idéalement placé au dessus des restos et des chanteurs juste sous les fenêtres ! Jusqu’à 1 h du matin. Fenêtres très mal insonorisées et les boules quies n’y changent rien. Si vous voulez dormir allez à 200m le quartier est le même mais la rue plus calme.
- Vito Federico (10/5): - Ottima posizione e pulizia Bisognava accendere o lo scaldabagno per l’acqua calda ogni volta per usarla
- Louis (6/5): Adequate to sleep. - Adequate accommodation. The listing is deceiving, it is not in a quiet suburb as described, it is in the busy tourist area above a bar, can’t use the balance as everyone looks from the restaurant opposite the room, very close to the sites but not a pleasant or romantic experience. Adequate place to sleep but had the listing been clear we would not have stayed there. Deceptive.
- Liz (10/5): Lovely apparentment in vibrant area - Great location in vibrant area.
Lovely apartment with good bathroom & cute balcony. Lots to do & see nearby, many places were walkable & if not, the metro was great.
The host was very accommodating. Nothing .
Sometimes it was a bit noisy until around midnight (but to be expected for a lively area) but we knew this in advance & earplugs were provided.
- Samantha (9/5): Excellent location, great amenities and luggage storage a bonus too! - Excellent location with walking distance to Acropolis. Cafes, market, shops etc. It didn’t bother us as we were tired but has the potential to keep some people awake at night as it is in a busy street opposite cafes etc. Saturday night is became quieter at midnight and then noise again at 8am. They have some sound proofing on windows and provide earplugs :-)
- Andreas (10/5): -
- Pedro Bugalho (10/5): -
- Jack (10/5): - Great room, bathroom, location, luggage room for between checkout and transfer
- Tognazzi (9/5): - Tutto
- Chef Robin (10/5): - Conveniently located for a quick stay in Monasteraki. Close walk to everything
- James (6/5): Fine for a one night stay. But noisy. - Location was convenient and accessible. The bars and restaurants opposite are very loud and even though the apartment (first floor) has sound proofing on the windows, they are still very noisy until late. Ear buds were available for the guests but they didn't get rid of the sound.
- Giuseppe (9/5): - Ottima posizione
Appartamento perfetto Nulla

- Fay (9/5): Lovely stay and great location - Very clean , lovely and modern The only negative is the extra bed ( booked 2 adults and 15 year old )the extra bed would have been suitable for a 7 year child not a 6 foot 15 year old
- Lu (9/5): Nice And Clean Apartment Near Monastriraki - The apartment is very well equipped with everything I needed. It is not big but spacious, comfortable and lovely enough so you will feel good in there. All the electricals worked well.
Location is very convenient being surrounded by restaurants, quiet bars and antique shops, and the ancient agora is just steps away. I could walk to Monastiraki in 3 minutes and to the Ermou shopping area in 10 minutes, and easily hail a cab /uber at the street corner.
Good for repeat visitors in Athens who want to stay in the historical city center. Although the host gave clear instructions for easy check-in, I would like to advise future guests that this property is located just opposite the Cava Nektar restaurant. Please don't walk further with your bags.
- Alexia (8/5): Great value for money close to Plaka - Great Location close to the Plaka Pillows were too high and firm
- Ellas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Bell (10/5): Exceptional -
- Julio (9/5): Superb -
- Becky (9/5): Great! - Had all the amenities you could need, quiet overnight. Powerful shower and aircon. Just to be aware the apartment is one large room - so all the beds are close to each other - worked fine for us & supplied earplugs.
- Serkan (10/5): Exceptional - First of all, although we did not have the opportunity to meet face to face, we would like to thank the Apartment Manager Mr. Zisis for his close attention. He responded to all our messages in a helpful manner and deserves a separate thank you. Also, the cleanliness of the apartment was great. Everything was perfect, there is nothing negative to say.
- Suzanne (8/5): Very good -
- Margarita (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean 👌
- Mccarron (10/5): Exceptional - Very good location near to city centre, eateries etc.Spacious comfortable apartment. Surprisingly quiet at night so good sleep! Lovely bathroom.
- Mafalda (7/5): Amazing location - The location was the best we could get, super close to the metro and also walking distance from many points we wanted to visit. There were two days where we had no warm water and because of that we showered with cold water and we could not bath the baby. Also, to be considered that we should have know in advance about the stairway to get to the apt. It was quite difficult with the baby’s car.
Finally, if someone has trouble falling asleep, important to note that there are some bars around and you can hear everything inside - also from the next door neighbors.
- Andra (10/5): Exceptional - Big spacious room, very clean, good AC
- Deborah (10/5): Lovely stay in the heart of plaka - Location is perfect right in the middle of plaka and close to the metro. The room was spacious and clean with a lovely little balcony to people watch. Rooftop bar next door overlooking the Parthenon. A bit noisy on a night despite the soundproofing but this did not bother us. Earplugs are advisable
- Andrej (10/5): Wonderful - Location, amenities
- Arpita (9/5): Superb -
- Amanda (9/5): Really good, friendly, accomodating would definatly return - Excellent location only tricky aspect is carrying suitcase up a flight of stairs which thankfully really friendly cleaning staff helped with On saturday it was pretty noisy but the location is so great we fell asleep anyway
- Michelle (2/5): Very poor -
- Eliane (10/5): Perfect ! Ideally situated. -
- Elisabeth (9/5): Superb - We did not meet our host but he reacted promptly and was very friendly. If you want to go out in the center of Athens this location is great. Also the apartment is really beautiful and well equipped. Outside there is so much noise from restaurants and in particular the very loud motorcycles nearby Ermou (street) it made that we could hardly sleep.
- Mark (10/5): A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Athens! - I had the absolute pleasure of staying in this stunning vintage apartment during my trip to Athens, and I can't recommend it enough! From the moment I stepped through the door, I was enchanted by the charm and character of this beautifully preserved building. The apartment is tastefully decorated with a perfect blend of classic elegance and modern comfort—every detail felt thoughtfully curated.
The high ceilings and vintage furnishings gave the space a timeless feel, while still offering all the modern amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. It truly felt like stepping back in time in the best possible way.
The location was ideal—quiet and peaceful, yet just a short walk from many of Athens' top attractions, cafes, and shops. I especially appreciated how easy it was to explore the city on foot and then return to such a cozy and welcoming home base.
If you're looking for a unique and authentic stay in Athens, this vintage apartment is a dream come true. I would return in a heartbeat!
- Michellezruc (2/5): Extremely rude cleaner. He would make you stay unpleasant - The apartment was spacious, easy to walk to restaurants, the host was responsive There was no washing machine and bidet. During our checkout we have informed the host for a late checkout and he has agreed to it. However we were harassed and evicted by the cleaner despite informing the host. The cleaner was very rude and started banging things at the house to show his dissatisfaction and was mumbling very loudly in his language. This has affected our perception of our stay in this apartment. Not feasible if you have heavy luggages.
- Canan (8/5): Very good - Location wifi was not good sometimes
- Ventsislav (8/5): Very good -
- Ventsislav (8/5): Very good -
- Stacey (8/5): Central - The property was central to everything and very quirky and had everything you needed. The shower leaked everytime time we used it so had to where flip flops everytime we went in.
The room was very cold with it having high ceilings.
Just took a while to heat up.
- Stavros (9/5): Superb - Nice apartment in a great location. At night or the area around the apartment is a bit noisy and you can hear the noise in the apartment.
- Narelle (7/5): Good -
- Barak (8/5): Very good - There is no safe in the apartment
- Anastasia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jerome (9/5): Superb -
- Rebecca (9/5): It was lovely! - Location, cleanliness, updated, comfortable furniture . The steps - to have to drag heavy luggage up and down. The loud Greek music that played until 11:00 Sunday night at the restaurant across the street. I was so tired - I was miserable! There was no way to get away from it.
- Paul (9/5): A little haven amongst the hustle and bustle. - The apartment is in a great position fir restaurants and sites. nothing
- Lisa (9/5): Superb -
- James (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location! We were able to walk everywhere from here. The apartment was also very nice and comfortable.
- Eyal (10/5): Exceptional -
- Brandon (9/5): Superb -
- Kim (9/5): Superb - Great location, within walking distance to all key attractions. Very cute bars, restaurants and cafes on the doorstep.
Nice little balcony The second bed was a fold out bed/couch rather than an actual bed. In saying that, I've been told it was comfortable enough.
- Nikiforos (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nikiforos (10/5): Exceptional -
