Guest Reviews
- Peggy (10/5): Amazing views and wonderful stay in Plaka - Excellent location. We had a view of the Plaka shops and restaurants from our balcony and a view of the Acropolis from the rooftop terrace. The apartment is huge - 2 large sitting areas, 2 large bedrooms and 2 large bathrooms. Our group of 4 women really appreciated the abundance of mirrors. Nicholas was a great host. He meet us a checkin and helped us with our luggage. He was quick to respond to any questions that we had. Would definitely stay there again. Nothing
- Kristina (10/5): Nikolas was a great host and the property exceeded expectations. -
- nancy (10/5): Wonderful amazing location and property in athens. You can’t do better. - Amazing location. Wonderful layout. Beautiful inside and out. Nothing.
- Robert (10/5): Great Stay In Athens - The property was an excellent place to stay, right in the heart of Plaka. Nikolas was great communicating with us, giving us the layout of Athens and how easy it was getting around.
The apartment is sizable located near many restaurants. Easy access to the Acropolis and other sites in Athens. Most things we did were well within walking distance to the apartment.
I would try to book this apartment as my first choice next time I'm in Athens.
- Tuyet (10/5): The BEST property in Plaka! - This was my 3rd stay at this amazing property. I can’t say enough about the property and host. Everything was perfect! The property is spacious, clean, beautiful, and centrally located. Highlight is the upper deck with amazing views for drinks in the evening. If you prefer eating in, the kitchen is well equipped with anything you might need but when I travel we eat out and you will have many great choices within steps of the
property. When I return to Athens this will be my only choice! Thank you Nikolas for being a Super Host!
- Tuyet (10/5): -
- Leonidas (10/5): Outstanding! 10/10 is not enough for this property - - Polite, helpful and easy to access host
- Located in Plaka the most vibrant and beautiful neighborhood of Athens, walking distance to the most important antiquities and museums of the city
- Spacious, clean rooms, 3 bathrooms
- Well decorated house
- AMAZING terrace with view
- So many excellent books (in Greek most of them)
- A nice collection of music CDs (Italian, Greek and International music) to enjoy
- Well equipped kitchen: there is EVERYTHING you can imagine, even if you need to offer a luxurious dinner to your friends/family
- The house itself has history since it was the house where Greek poet Georgios Drosinis were born.
- It wasn`t cheap, however given the crazy prices in Plaka, and the quality of the property you can say it was worthy - Honestly, nothing. Ok, just to mention something, there is no microwave oven which could be useful ( to heat lasts night`s pizzas leftovers fast :-) )
- Bonnie (10/5): - This is an incredible accommodation located in the heart of Plaka. The host graciously arranged airport transfers which made this process simple and efficient. The only drawback was we didn't alot for enough time in Athens...and the rooftop terrace, spectacular!
- Denise (10/5): Another amazing stay at this property! - First off, we are returning guests. Nikolas is an outstanding host and makes navigating Athens and Plaka effortless. The house is spacious and pristine. The refrigerator is stocked with a few welcome beverages and all the major sites are walkable. Highly recommend this place to stay! Nothing
- Susan (10/5): Fantastic! 10++++ - Loved the apartment, the location and our host Nikalus. Nothing to not like!
- Mark (10/5): The most perfect apartment - Stunning location. The whole apartment was spacious and beautifully decorated. Situated right in the heart of the old town. The rooftop terrace had a simply amazing and unobstructed view of the Acropolis. The owner was so friendly and helpful. Cannot wait to come back again. Nothing at all.
- Harish (9/5): Superb -
- K (10/5): Great for family, friends and solo travelers. - Our host, Nicholas was very responsive, friendly and professional. The house was located in a very convenient location for sightseeing, shopping and dining. It covered all. Very family friendly as well. The sight of Acropolis from the terrace and the bedroom was just magnificent and could stay and look forever. We had breakfast in the morning and wine in the evening. Just lovely memory. As they had a soccer match the night we stayed for the first night, some drunk people were being loud outside. And a couple was arguing loudly. It could be a bit noisy but ok.
- Emma (10/5): Exceptional -
- John (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amanda (10/5): We would come back! - Nikolas, the host, was informative and so kind. He met us when we checked in and out. He showed us how the hot water works and what places to visit. We have a family of five and the house was perfect. A great location and easy to find food and walk the shopping districts.
- Joe (10/5): Exceptional - Nicholas went above and beyond for us. Arranged transportation, provided insights, met us at the door and showed us around the property and what amazing views it had. Right under the Acropolis!! The home is simply an amazing gem in the heart of the city. Many claim this title, but this delivered hands down. Not a thing
- Javier (10/5): Perfect stay near Plaka. Dont miss! - Location is very centric and in the middle of Plaka. Apartment is very spacious and the view from the terrace is unmatched. Perfect to walk around and see the near acropolis and everything Athens can offer. Highly recommend. Nikolas is a very good and attentive host. Thank you sir! Noise outside can be something of a distraction but this is no fault of the place given its location. Make sure to bring in some good earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Other than that it is exactly what we were looking for.
- Elizabeth (9/5): Superb - Host met us and was delightful. Apartment was spacious, clean and superbly located. The terrace was an added bonus. Showers were a little confined over a small bath.
- Mihai (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amanda (10/5): A real gem in the heart of Athens - The location, style and spaciousness of the apartment was excellent. We loved the roof top terrace with view of Acropolis and the little balcony looking over restaurants and streets below in the heart of Plaka. Three double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms were in a separate wing to kitchen and living area which made it very comfortable. The host was so helpful and accommodating. We would come back! nothing!
- Rolf (10/5): Perfect big house in the best area of Athen! - Highly recommendation! Nikolas was taken care about everything transportation from airport, tipps for visiting and even restaurant reservations. We will come back! Nothing everything was perfect!
- Anthony (10/5): Exceeded our expectations! Will definitely return on next trip to Athens. - Excellent location in the center of the Plaka. The apartment was clean, nicely decorated, and very spacious. Amazing rooftop terrace with a view of the Acropolis. Highly recommend— we stayed 4 nights and were very happy.
Very attentive host- ensured all in order upon our arrival. no negative feedback
- Evelyn (10/5): A beautiful place to stay in the heart of Plaka! - A beautiful apartment, spacious, very clean, beautiful views from the rooftop deck. Everything was perfect! A few minutes walk to the South entrance to the Acropolis. Very gracious host. Highly recommend.
- Kumiko (10/5): Exceptional - Location is perfect. It is close to everything. There are many good restaurants nearby and walking distance to Acropolis. Our host Nikolas prepared traditional Greek sweets for us and it made our day. Nothing
- Joshua (10/5): Exceptional -
- Paul (10/5): Exceptional - Absolutely the best location in the centre of Plaka. Apartment was spacious, clean, beautifully furnished and has everything you would need. Apartment overlooks many resturants, shops and has a rooftop terrace with amazing views. Host met on arrival and was super helpful and friendly. Would not hesitate to stay again!!! Nothing
- Tim (9/5): Superb -
- Ashanee (10/5): The place to stay in the Plaka. - This property exceeded our expectations.
The location, the enormous size of the apartment the historic sites just minute away was amazing! The best of all was the charming owner of the property who was such a gentleman. There was nothing to dislike.
- Maria (9/5): Overall a great stay! - Location was perfect for us. Clean and very spacious apartment. Beautiful views from the balcony and rooftop terrace. Fully equipped kitchen and clothes washer were helpful to have. A big thank you to our host for meeting us very early in the morning to give keys and walk through of apt. Bookings.com provided free transportation from the airport! The shower of the bigger bathroom was a bit uncomfortable (narrow tub) but more importantly the water was so hot that one daughter literally burned her arm accidentally touching the shower faucet.
- Deborah (10/5): An excellent apartment in the heart of historic Athens! - You can't beat the excellent location and the friendliness of of host Nikolas or taxi driver Spiros. We loved sitting on the small balcony overlooking the cafes on the busy pedestrians-only street or sitting on the rooftop patio in the evening to gaze upon the Acropolis while enjoying a glass of wine at sunset. This lovely accommodation is a very short walk from all the major sites and many, many delicious restaurants. Nikolas welcomed us with a bottle of wine and some kitchen basics, which we very much appreciated. We would definitely hope to stay here again the next time we are in Athens! Highly recommend! The bathroom tubs are teeny-tiny and difficult to maneuver for showering. Not a biggie for us and part of the character of the experience when it comes to staying in a home like this in the heart of historic Athens. But something to be aware of if you are less nimble.
- Fern (10/5): I highly recommend this home. - The outside space was amazing…especially the roof top deck!! ?? Everything was really great!
- Thomas (10/5): Amazing apartment with character in Plaka - Fantastic central location in Plaka, just minutes from the Acropolis museum. The apartment has a vast living space and two comfortable bedrooms. Far from a boring Ikea apartment, each piece of furniture seems to be custom made and unique. The rooftop with a view of the sacred rock of the Acropolis is amazing. Our host Nikolas was here at check-in and check-out and always available when we had questions.
- Billy (10/5): Beautiful Apartment, perfectly located. - We really enjoyed our stay! The Apartment was absolutely fantastic. Great central location with the sights, shops, restaurants all within a few minutes walk.
Nikolas the host was extremely helpful and offered advice on visiting the sights/restaurants and even arranged our transfers to and from the airport.
The rooftop terrace with the view of the Acropolis is absolutely amazing too. With the Apartment being in such an ideal spot in Plaka, surrounded by a lot of restaurants and shops it could be a little noisy at times, but this is to be expected.
- Jingjing (10/5): Excellent location, great host, beautiful apartment, what else to ask for? - Centre location, within 500 meters of every other major attraction, functional apartment, tasteful decor. Even clothing rack comes very handy!
Nikolas personally met with us and was super responsive, a Service rarely matched elsewhere.
Rooftop view is a must! No, even got Nefliex to get children happy.
- Silvana (10/5): Perfect -
- Martin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michael (10/5): A perfect home in an unbelievable location and kind host! - Our host was welcoming, helpful and very accommodating. We left very early on our last day and he met us at 5:30am to wish us safe travels. The location is beyond amazing, minutes to everything
by walking. View, great! The entire home with rooftop was spectacular. Would recommend over and over! Nothing.
- Robin (10/5): Excellent location and clean spacious accommodation - The location of the apartment was perfect and we had everything we needed for the four of us. Spacious and clean. We were right in the heart of everything. A very short walk to restaurants and shopping and seeing the sights. We loved sitting out on the rooftop terrace overlooking the back of the acropolis! The owner was very nice and quick to respond to questions.
- Wesley (10/5): Perfect apartment - Location is amazing. The host is fantastic. This is the perfect place for a stay in Athens.
- David (10/5): Fantastic location and apartment. - The apartment was superb, plenty of room for the four of us-2 couples. It was very well appointed with all the comforts of home. The location could not have been better as it was within walking distance of all the main attractions. Nikolas had arranged transport from the airport and met us at the apartment. He was very helpful and explained everything to us and how to get around. He also arranged the taxi to take us to the airport. Everything was exceptional and I have no hesitation in recommending this apartment. Nothing
- Nicole (10/5): A great location, for a very nice apartment. - The location was perfect, the rooftop balcony facing the Acropolis was our favourite spot in the apartment.
Our host Nicolas was nice and responsive.
The beds were comfy, the apartment was spacious, we had everything we needed. One of the rooms that faced 2 central streets was a bit noisy in the early mornings (the other room was quiet, the window faced a smaller street).
- Cynthia (10/5): outstanding and the support from the owner was fantastic. He made sure we were comfortable and well cared for. we had a - the reviews and posted pictures are all true. it is beautiful and well located. the house is well laid out and beautifully furnished. not a thing! we could not ask for more
- Kirk (10/5): Athens perfection! - Brilliant location, huge house with quality fittings throughout. The rooftop deck was quite unbelievable! Nikolas was always quick to reply if we had a question. I can't remember a better place to stay in all our travels, I can't recommend it highly enough! Because of its central location it could be a little noisy at night. Otherwise perfect!
- Allison (10/5): Breathtaking Views with 5-Star Hospitality and Perfect Location - This property was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! So spacious with amazing natural lighting from the windows. Nice size rooms with HUGE and luxurious bathrooms. The views were possibly the most spectacular part of this place, with a lovely terrace to look out at the Acropolis. Three of us stayed here and had plenty of space to coexist. The Acropolis entrance was only a five minute walk away, and most other sites (Agora, Flea Market) were 10 minutes walk away.
Nicholas the host went above and beyond to make our stay the best it could be. He sent a taxi to get us from the airport and met us at the place to show us around and make sure everything was to our liking. Then, when the taxis were on strike on our way to leave, he arranged for a friend to drive us in his personal car to the airport. WOW!
Could not recommend this place more. Incredible hospitality, breathtaking views, and perfect amenities. Best stay I've ever had. This place was completely perfect. Above and beyond anything I could have imagined or expected.
- Adele (10/5): Beautiful space near Acropolis with stunning rooftop views of Acropolis. - Nicholas is very friendly, helpful and communicative. The apartment is private and very large, with 3 toilets, 2 bathrooms, and everything you need for a comfortable stay, and the view of the acropolis from the rooftop, particularly at night, iis amazing. The apartment is perfectly located to the archaeological sites, restaurants, and acropolis metro station.
- Nic (10/5): The hosts were superb. Nikolas went above and beyond. - The location was fantastic. A bit noisy but we were staying in the centre of a city so you expect it to be.

- Mai (10/5): Would recommend this property if you are staying in Plaka, this place is truly unique. - The property was amazing, views for days. Located within steps to many sites, restaurants and shops. We especially enjoyed relaxing every evening on the rooftop with views of the acropolis. We wished we would have spent a few more days at this property.

Enormous accommodation with extremely high quality furnishings of high calibre design, perfect location, close walking distance to all the sights, eateries all around. The owners are most hospitable. We were delighted with our choice 😄
