Guest Reviews

• Thomas (10/5): - Super Lage , kurze Fußwege zur Akropolis und Innenstadt. Toller Gastgeber und super Parkplart. Nichts
• Marcel (10/5): Genoten van Athene met een fijne slaapplek op loopafstand van alle highlights en goede restaurants. - Fijne locatie. Alles op loopafstand. Super goede en veilige parkeerplek
• Danielle (10/5): - Such a beautiful house in a great location . We absolutely loved the outdoor seating area and the decor and facilities inside were fabulous. A short walk to lovely restaurants overlooking the Acropolis. Our host was so welcoming and informative. Perfect
• Yijin (10/5): -
• Rainer (9/5): Es hat Alles gepasst; schade, dass wir wegen der kühlen Jahreszeit die Sitzgruppen draußen nicht nutzen konnten. - Nur 15 Gehminuten von der Akropolis entfernt gelegene romantische Unterkunft mit wundervollen Außenanlagen und Parkplatz zur alleinigen Nutzung. Der Kontakt mit Theo war problemlos, er ist sehr hilfsbereit. Bequeme Betten, sofort warmes Wasser mit starkem Strahl im Duschbad, Heizung top. Wir waren zu Zweit, reicht aber auch gut für eine 4-köpfige Familie. 1 Flasche Wein, ein Obstkorb und ein Hefezopf zum Empfang … Super! Im Bad fehlt eine Steckdose, die Küche könnte eine zusätzliche gebrauchen. Ist aber Klage auf hohem Niveau.
• Τουτουντζης (10/5): Εξυπηρετικοτατος -
• Carole (10/5): -
• Ilka (10/5): - Die Lage ist sensationell und die Leute sind supernett. Es gab sogar Wein und Obst und das Auto konnte sicher geparkt werden. Wir waren nur zu Fuß unterwegs. Nachts war es etwas kühl und einige Gäste hätten eine zweite Decke gebraucht.
• Bastiaan (9/5): Leuk huisje van alle gemakken voorzien op een top locatie! - Super leuk huisje, van alle gemakken voorzien en een hele fijne patio. Prima locatie, alles op 15-20 min te belopen. Fijne communicatie met de host. Aanrader! Niets
• Steffen (10/5): Schönes, zentrales Haus - Direkt am Park gelegen, durch den man in ca. 10 Minuten an den Eingang zur Akropolis laufen kann. Vom Park hat es eine super Aussicht auf die Stadt. Tolles Haus mit 2 Schlafzimmern für je 2 Personen. Die 5. Person schläft auf der Couch im Wohnzimmer (diese könnte etwas komfortabler sein). Mit Küche. Vor der Tür hat es 2 schöne Sitzplätze. Wer mit dem Auto kommt: Das Auto kann man direkt im Grundstück parken. Schöne Restaurants sind in ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuss zu erreichen. Sehr freundlicher Gastgeber. nichts
• Dagmar (9/5): - Gut ausgestattete Wohnung, Küche und Bad recht komfortabel, Balkon und Gartenbereich zur freien Verfügung! Sehr netter Gastgeber. Die Akropolis sowie Plaka ist über einen schönen Fußweg in 10 bis 20 Minuten erreichbar. Auf der anderen Seite befindet dich der Stadteil Ano Petralona mit vielen netten Lokalen, wo man ein wenig abseits vom Massentourismus ist. Alles bestens bis auf den Einrichtungsstil... Geschmackssache
• LUCIAN (10/5): -
• Madeleine (10/5): - Ein super schöner Aufenthalt!!! Die Lage und das Appartement sind großartig!!! Ein super netter Gastgeber!!! Sehr zu empfehlen!!!!

• Kevin (9/5): Great location for walking to all the sights - What a great location. Perfect for walking to all the sights. Lovely to have some outside space and room out of all the noise Sofa bed less comfortable for the fifth family member. But other than than, perfect
• Jonah (10/5): Great spot within walking distance of everything! - Very clean and spacious! Very close to everything in central Greece - PLAKA, Acropolis, and all the squares are within walking distance. The host was very helpful and informative. And it has private gated parking which is a huge plus for anyone renting a car in Athens! I definitely recommend this house 100! Nothing

The hosts were very helpful and kind, was given wine, water and fresh fruit, as well as some great recommendations of what to see and where to eat. A lovely quiet oasis in the middle of Athens. Nothing
• Richard (10/5): Stone House is a great place to stay in a quieter area that is still close enough to everything. - It’s so very nice to have such ample outdoor seating, it really makes the place good to come back to after a day out. The place is well cared for and the owner looks after you very well. Nothing
• Jacob (9/5): Superb -
• Sorin (10/5): Exceptional -
• Violetta (8/5): Very good - Great location, we were able to get to the main sights on foot. Hosts were very friendly and available. The house comes with a private parking place which is key in Athens. Facilities, WiFi and overall cleanliness could be improved.

• Guri (10/5): Large "countryside" style house in the middle of the city - Free Parking Large "countryside" style house in the middle of the city Kind and helpful host "Peaceful area - not in the middle of the "action
• Jan (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location
• Yanyan (10/5): Exceptional - Good location, clean with private parking lot and a lovely yard , it was a special experience to live in a stone house under Acropolis. We were offered welcome drinks and fruit. The owner’s father received us. He’s really nice and warm.
• Thia (10/5): Be prepared to fall in love and never want to leave! - Let's start with the gardens that greet you upon your arrival to this beautiful home. The smell of jasmine wafts by welcoming you into a magical place where you want to spend your days and nights in the garden! But don't stop there! Up some well designed stone steps is the entry to such a colorful interior that you might forget about the garden and stay in the warmth of the hand textured painted colors that welcome you to nestle in the comfy beds and drop the exterior shades and dream of the history Athens and this home share! But explore you must and the host Theo has created a list of places to eat, see, and explore over two days and his suggestions were spot on! I celebrated my 65th birthday at the Rooftop Restaurant Sin Athina just a short walk from the Stone House and looked out upon the Parthenon lite up at night it was an incredible night of exquisite food, drinks and scenery! Thanks Theo for suggesting this glorious place! So I have to spread the word about this hidden gem and I might regret it when it's completely booked, but this place, the host and his dad, and the location is a must visit! Next time I think I will spend an entire month here and still will cry when I leave! I wanted to move in and never leave but life back in California is calling me back. I shed a tear as I shut the door and left a bit of my heart behind.
• Sabina (10/5): Great for relaxation and exploring! - Super friendly, available and very hospitable hosts. Great location, quiet neighborhood and still with walking distance to a lot of “action”.

• Ram (10/5): Spacious, Luxurious and Clean Apartment in a Great Location - The place was located within walking distance all the nearby attractions such as Acropolis, Plaka district etc. You get magnificent views of the Parthenon and the Acropolis as you walk up the hill. There is also a grocery store nearby. The host (Theo) was very gracious and allowed us to stay a little longer on the day of the checkout and he was always available to answer all questions promptly. Could not really use the washing machine. Other than that, no complaints.
• Athena (9/5): This was one of the nicest houses I have ever seen. - Location, very clean and wonderful host. The mattresses were a little too hard for us
• Mark (10/5): Very enjoyable short break in Athens with a very helpful, flexible and supportive host. - It was in an excellent position in the city. A 10 minute walk to Acropolis and not much further to other sites. Also very comfortable and clean. Nothing
• Lutz (10/5): Exceptional - Stone House was a real home and offered during extremely hot days a wonderful fresh shelter and a really greek feeling of being at home and in freedom and relaxation. I know Athens and could afford this. I spent there more time than in lively Athens. You can nevertheless reach instantly plaka. Acropolis and so on. nothing
• Cengiz (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect place, very warm and helpful owner. Having a private park in the garden was very convenient.
• Jeannette (9/5): A brief stay in Athens - The location of the house was fantastic, being very close to attractions such as the Observatory, Agoras and of course the Acropolis. The host was amazing, even booking an early morning taxi for us for our onward journey.
• Alina (10/5): A very nice stay at the Stonehouse, convenient apartment and great location in Athens -
• Barry (10/5): Short break in Athens - Friendly, generous and most welcoming hosts here. The house was perfect and set within a quite neighbourhood with some nice restaurants just a moments walk.

• Carolyn (10/5): OMG The beautiful gardens - Quiet neighborhood in Thissio close to restaurants and a short trek up Phillapapou hill just across the street for views of the Acropolis.

Nothing
• Brian (9/5): Superb -

The property is near everything, all in walking distance. Our hosts we amazing, such a welcoming and kind family and they went above and beyond to help us. We would all go back and stay. Nothing.
• Philip (10/5): Exceptional -
• Patrick (10/5): Perfect home for staying in Athens with enchanting outdoor area. - We love this property! We’ve been coming for years now and the owners are the kindest family. Everything is perfectly clean and the best part is the outside, it is beautifully decorated and features beautiful flowers, lemons and other plants. It’s very relaxing and enjoyable.

It’s the perfect little home to stay at if you’re wanting a good experience in Athens. For us, coming here every now, is a tradition 😁 We love everything!
• Poli (10/5): Exceptional - We stayed there with my husband and 2 kids in the middle of August. OVerall, the house it was very comfortable and conveniently located. Having your own reserved parking spot in Athens is definitely a huge, huge advantage. The apartment was very close to everything. You are literally a 3 minutes walk from the Ntional Observatory of Athens where you have an amazing view of the Acropolis. All the restaurants and the picturesque coble streets of Plaka are very close. You really do not need to use any transportation. Rather, you can explore Athens by foot, that's how convenient the house is. Nevertheless, the host Theo was always available and made every attempt to make our stay amazing. The house has a beautiful garden with plenty of shade and lots of plants, so you can enjoy the beautiful, warm Athenian weather outdoors. Overall, we had an amazing stay.
• Opusat (10/5): Best place to stay in Athens. - Excellent location, Restaurants two blocks away downhill. The house is ample and with good facilities and ambiance for families. Great host. nothing. all good.
• Shabtai (9/5): Superb -
• Warren (10/5): A fantastic stay in Athens - Property is great Location is excellent- easy to walk into town and visit the main sites Very comfortable indoors and a really nice outdoor terrace Nothing- all good
• Wael (10/5): Charming house in the center of Athens - Charming and spotlessly clean house in the very center of Athens. The kids enjoyed staying here so much that they did not want to leave and the little one started calling it 'home' :) The best part, however, was the kind and hospitable host... and the secure private parking. Highly recommended. None.
• Beibei (10/5): Exceptional - The owner was very considerate and arranged everything for us including a bottle of wine! The place was incredibly beautiful especially the yard. I will definitely recommend to my friends travelling to Athens. N/A
• Jen (10/5): Couldn't have been better - The location was perfect - Pnyx Hill was on the opposite side of the road and it was easy to walk into town, I felt safe in the neighbourhood. The host was very friendly, kind and helpful. The house was lovely and had everything we could have wanted. The only thing that could have improved it is if we could have stayed for longer!
• Tom (10/5): great communication with host, We Were late om a saturday night, but ha farger waited for us. smooth check out, just lea - Great location for Acropolis, and close to metro. very nice yard.
• Mick (9/5): Great host and location - Location was really good. Theodore and his father were really helpful and very kind. walking distance to the main centre which has great bars and restaurants close by. Electric not available whilst outside of the property due the the key fob system was an issue for charging devices. a single socket for this would be a great addition.
• Myriam (6/5): Property malfunction - Location close to Acropolis with many great restaurants nearby, felt safe walking on Fri & Sat night around 9/10 pm. Very clean, wonderful to have clothes washer. Really liked the dad who greeted us! Electric panel malfunctioned and we were without power intermittently for 18h. That meant no shower in the morning as we had no light or power for hair dryers, no coffee,.....Almost couldn't get our car out of the gate to catch our ship. Also, the fridge didn't work with the apartment and outside power out, so we were afraid to eat our food. I felt like the owner was trying to gaslight us, beyond just skirting responsibility when he said he hired two electricians who found no problem, before 815 am. Dad had even been there the night before to try to fix it for us, got it back on for a few hours. Didn't have the a/c controller until the last day of the stay. Couldn't figure out how to work the oven. Twin bed not comfortable
• Shanda (9/5): Luxurious home - The host was very responsive and met us for check-in. The house is very luxurious in it's decor, and clean! We only stayed one night and did not have time to hang out, but the outdoor was nice and inviting. All was great!
• Spiridon (10/5): A treasure in the middle of Athens - Everything was absolutely terrific!! The location, the garden the house the hospitality.
• Mei (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mary (10/5): staying here made our time in Athens exceptional. - exceptional apartment - beautifully decorated with lovely and large outdoor patio. truly beautiful.
• Jael (10/5): clean, quiet, great location - super clean, quiet, close to everything. great host. private, safe parking. the bed on the left in the second bedroom has springs sticking out.
• David (10/5): Gorgeous property, less than 10 mins walk to anything you need - Gorgeous outdoors area. Everything well thought at. You'll get the sun, or if too much, a couple of places to still be outside but not exposed. Indoors, beds were comfortable and clean. Living room and dining room a decent size for the 3 of us. Kitchen has everything you need in terms of facilities and utensils. Nothing to mention. It was all fantastic.
• Xiaorui (10/5): excellent! - Spacious, comfortable, convenient, great parking ! air conditioning
• Rasvan (10/5): Exceptional - The stone house and its small intimate courtyard give a real feeling of the Greek lifestyle as we imagine it - quiet, nice and cozy. Great location - 10 min to Athens Acropolis. In 3 minutes you are at the Observatory, and enjoying the views of Athens. No public transportation needed, you can visit by foot all key attractions, however there is a subway station in walking distance, just in case you want to go further - maybe to visit Piraeus harbor. All needed appliances are provided. There is also a grocery store nearby, if you feel like cooking; but really, you can just explore the taverns on Plaka, which is 10 to 15 min away.
• Jenny (10/5): Great place! - Clean, beautiful, lovely garden. Friendly owner. Nice neighborhood with great restaurants nearby. Very near great view points. The Small bed was a bit too hard. Too much decor. Not quite under the Acropolis.
• Jayden (10/5): Exceptional - The host went above and beyond what I had expected
