- Chris (10/5): - Large, clean, quiet space with a comfortable bed. The location was great too.
- Karen (10/5): - Great location and in walking distance to cafes, restaurants, metro etc. Large apartment which was fully stocked with the essentials, clean and on a quiet street (no need for ear plugs).
- Patricia (10/5): Thank you for your beautiful apartment - Quiet residential area but quite close to everything. Very well equiped kitchen. Very spacious apartment and the host was lovely - great communication. Photos don’t do the apartment justice. It is just lovely. There are hills!

- Eleftherios (10/5): I will stay again without any hesitation. - Spacious and well furnished rooms, a well supplied kitchen. Apartment was well maintained and clean in a good and quiet location. Nothing
- Damien (10/5): -
- Arietta (10/5): -
- gideon (9/5): This is the best apartment I ever stayed at and would definitely come again. - We had a great stay at "Live Like A Local In Kolonaki"
Communication with the owners was very good, they sent clear arrival and key-pickup instructions ahead of time.
Picking up of the keys was fairly simple from a lockbox located at the front door of the property, the owners were also kind enough to message us after we arrived to make sure all is well.
The property itself exceeded my expectations- It was spacious, elegantly furnished and clean with a nice little balcony to site or just dry laundry.
The apartment came equipped with quality brands of all the appliances you would need (fully equipped kitchen, laundry machine, AC in good working order in both rooms etc...).
The location was great. Quiet and charming little street but relatively close to the center (~15-20 minutes’ walk) with a metro station nearby (5 minutes’ walk). A couple of bonuses: On Saturday they have a produce market on Xenocratous street (one street down), at least that’s how it was on the 23ed of august. Additionally, the apartment is just under Lychabettus Hill which has amazing views of the whole city!
We had an amzing time,
thank you Sissi and Gallinos! The place is great as I stated above.
That being said, there were a few things that could have been better:
1. There was an unpleasant smell of heavy machines coming from the entrance of the building, like hot oil and diesel engine exhaust, possibly coming from the elevator machinery or some hidden generator. The smell wasn't overpowering but it was noticeable and bit unpleasant. It was also noticeable each time we came into the apartment, but opening the balcony windows quickly aired it out though, so it was not too bad.
2. Water from the AC of the apartment (and I think also the apartment above) drained onto the balcony floor and made a small pool which is a bit annoying, especially considering that it is something that can be easily fixed with some extra piping from the AC.
3. The keys were deposited in a lockbox that was outside the building. The problem is that there are many identically looking boxes and it is not clear which one was ours and so I had to go through all of them before I found our box. This was a bit unpleasant especially because we arrived at night and the dim light didn’t help. It would be great if the boxes were clearly marked according to their apartment, maybe in a color-coded system.
In the end, these were minor inconveniences, in the end we were very happy with our choice and would definitely come again!
- Ravit (10/5): A dream hosting experience - The communication with the hosts was excellent, and I received answers to all my questions and requests. The apartment is beautifully and tastefully designed, very pleasant, spotless, and sparkling clean. It has everything needed for a comfortable stay, with the hosts taking care of every little detail to make you feel at home.

- Apostolos (10/5): Great stay in the heart of Athens - Very central location, nice neighborhood , spacious apartment with lots of amenities. Easy check in and check out. Highly recommended! -
- Anthony (9/5): Superb - This was a clean, comfortable apartment, close to the National Painting Gallery, Byzantine Museum and others. An undersheet over the mattress would improve the comfort of the bed (and extend the life of the mattress).
- Athanasios (8/5): Very good - Location, quality of the flat, amenities, nice peoplep Works out get noisy early morning, walk uphill can get tiresome
- Ali (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hermesp (10/5): Beautifully decorated and renovated, the location is 10 out of 10. Great value for money - This apartment exceeded our expectations, it was very spacious , beutifylly decorated and renovated, fully equipped kitchen (even though you don't need to cook when you stay in Kolonaki) the location is 10 out of 10. Sissy & Galinos are amazing hoists and we look forward to stay again at their apartment when next in Athens. Everything was perfect, the photos dont do justice , actually is 10x better than the photos :)
- Bea (10/5): Book this great apartment for a very pleasant stay in Athens! - This apartment exceeds expectations. It is spacious, nicely decorated, large bedroom with big double bed, well equipped kitchen and bathroom, quiet apartment in lovely neighborhood, close to metrostation, lots of good restaurants very close. The hosts are very welcoming, helped out with tips on restaurants, taxis etc. Excellent price/quality.
- John (10/5): Live like a local in a spacious flat in the coolest area of Athens. Loved the experience! - I loved the location (easy walk down the hill to the main area of Kolonaki) and the communication by the hosts. They were extremely helpful and considerate & even called after check-in to make sure everything was OK.
The apartment was well-appointed and very spacious! Great kitchen, comfortable bed, spacious living room, and entryway. Great wifi and comfortable temperature. Everything was as described - exceeded my expectations - no additional improvements necessary.
- Dimitrios (9/5): Superb -
- Ilana (9/5): Lovely location and spacious apartment - Fantastic location if you want something a little quieter than the old historic town centre. Peaceful neighbourhood with lovely cafes and bars and beautiful treelined streets. Close walking distance to all the main attractions. Multiple lockboxes hanging in the same place, all had the same code so whomever was there before me also struggled to find the correct one. Lots of half empty bottles of toiletries which some people liked (other reviews) but to me it felt like leftovers from someones visit - easily solved by just ignoring it an unpacking my own.
- Giannis (8/5): Spacious and clean apartment close to the city center - Spacious and clean apartment.
Mostly renovated with a very large bed and blackout blinds. The location although close to the city center is quite uphill.
The apartment is part of a very old block.
- Rasha (10/5): Amazing experience, super hosts! - This property is by far my absolute favorite in the center of Athens. Very good experience, the apartment literary had everything (they even had shampoo, toilet paper, all the spices you can imagine, coffee, tea which are usually not provided in such apartments.) The hosts are very kind and helpful, they reply immediately to whatever questions you have. The location was also amazing in the middle of kolonaki and barely 15’ walk to syntagma. Nothing about the property but the only issue in this area is the parking so if you have a car make sure you add a budget for the parking and you cant activate the parking for more than 3 hours so it is a bit of a hassle. Also finding a parking isn’t easy.
- Evangelia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aleksandra (9/5): Superb -
- Amanda (8/5): Very good - Location was good
- Sandra (9/5): Nice stay in Athens - Spacious apartment in a very nice area of Athens. Good amenities, all supplies like coffee were available in the apartment which was great. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. The matrass was a bit hard for us.
- Evangelia (8/5): Very good -
- Carol (8/5): Great location, quiet, comfortable - Location is very good. You must like stairs going up hill. We had no problem. Quiet, good restaurants, grocery places and shops. Local farmers market one day was wonderful. Bed comfortable. Bathroom fine- not much space to put toiletries etc. Good ,easy to use washer/dryer (in bathroom). Kitchen supplies ok. Good stove, dishwasher. Shower was fine. Couch was comfortable, didn't use the TV. Wifi easy and strong. Good storage for clothes in bedroom. Received info on restaurants and grocery places digitally. Had umbrellas. Balcony one chair depth, looks into the apt across the street. Direction means strong sun when you want to use it. No list about what to do with garbage/recycle- we took it to the street receptacles. Only later did we figure out the (excellent) black out blinds. Lighting in bathroom was not great-- shadows etc. Couple of days of intense renovations by unit above. No kitchen towels- ended up using bathroom towels for drying dishes etc.
- Catherine (10/5): Fabulous ! - Very quiet street at the bottom of the Lycabette Hill in the upmarket area of Kolonaki. Everything went well: communication with the owners was clear and precise: the keys were easy to find, as well as the flat once in the building. The instructions are clear (sent electronically). The flat is big, the interior design modern and elegant. Fully equipped with upmarket, efficient washing machine and dishwasher. Excellent water pressure in the shower. Perfectly situated of course at the bottom of Lycabette Hill which is great for walks in the morning or at night, and a short distance to the most fabulous museums (Benakis, Cycladic Arts, etc.). Only a 30 mn walk to the archaeological museum (an absolute MUST). Easy to walk to the centre too, as well as to the lively areas of Exarchea and Pangrati, which have numerous, more reasonably priced restaurants, taverns, "ouzeria" than Kolonaki (though there are a few more affordable ones too in the nearby area). Roads are steep from the underground stations of Syntagma/Evangelismos so make sure to take a taxi when you arrive from the airport if you have lots of luggage. Walking down to these stations is easy of course.
The most important advantage of that flat for us is that is very very quiet, and in Athens, it is rather unusual. Ευχαριστω πολυ (sorry no accents on my keyboard). The mattress could be better.
