Guest Reviews
- Joginder (10/5): - This property is a rare gem in the heart of Athens with all monuments, shopping, restaurants, all tourist spots and attractions within walking distance. The house has been tastefully & professionally decorated, remodeled including all the high end modern appliances. Alex (the host) was very responsive promptly. The house has preserved a piece of history: a floor visible thru glass in the floor and basement that was 2000 years old, preserved very aesthetically. We were 7 people and all of us were highly impressed with the layout and functionally very useful. If we ever go to Athens we would choose the same property. Everything was perfect; therefore, no negatives.
- James (10/5): - Truly perfect! Only thing missing was a broom, otherwise this house has everything a family needs for a great Athens vacation.
- Jan (10/5): Een droomlocatie… - Een huis uit de boekjes, maar dan veel beter. Niets
- GILLOT (10/5): Wonderful - La villa est spacieuse et très belle. La situation est au top. Alexandros est un hôte très attentionné. Rien
- Chiara (10/5): It was excellent! We wished we could have stayed longer, it was perfect for our family of 5! - The host, the beautiful rental, the spaciousness, the well appointed kitchen, the bathroom amenities, the location! Parking in Athens is a challenge! But that has nothing to do with the accommodation.
- Barbara (10/5): A gorgeous house for a week in Athens - This is an amazing house with a really great host. Alexandros was helpful and friendly from first contact and the house is incredible. The entrance hall with the covered mosaic was so lovely, I used it to do yoga and it made it really special. The location is right in the tourist area but tucked away. Fabulous accommodation and host. I’d love to return.
- Laura Tanase (10/5): Amazing house in an amazing location. - The house its very nice and very well decorated and its located in a very nice place (Plaka area) very close to Acropolis and very nice greek taverns.
- Kristen (10/5): - No words can possibly sum up our stay at En Plaka! It was an incredible space with so many thoughtful additions. ______ really thought through everything someone may want or need in a house when visiting Plaka, Athens, Greece. From the beautiful outside design to the tastefully decorated interior, it was a dream to stay at En Plaka! The bedrooms all had an en suite bathroom, and the kitchen was well stocked. So many thoughtful touches - snacks, coffee, cold beverages in the fridge, as well as, cooking supplies, seasonings, dish soap, and trash bags… seriously, anything and everything we needed was available to us at the house. Not to mention the Roman tile and other ancient artifacts so well preserved and presented for guests to enjoy. The location was perfect! Such a walkable area, and so close to everything!!
But the biggest most significant compliment I can give, was Alexandros' honesty, trustworthiness, and willingness to go out of his way to meet our taxi driver at a location on our way to the airport after I forgot my necklace - which is the most sentimental piece of jewelry I own (besides my wedding rings). I was in tears, Alexandros did not hesitate to speak to our driver, discuss a meeting point, hop on his motorbike and rush over to meet us. I offered him cash, but he declined to take it. I am so grateful to him for being honest and sacrificing his time to get my necklace to me, and I will always remember it! En Plaka is, by far, the best place to stay while in Athens, Greece! I would definitely stay there anytime I visit Athens, Greece in the future and would highly recommend it to my friends and family, and anyone considering visiting Athens.
- Brian (10/5): Very relaxing stay. Alexandros was a great host - always contactable, quick to respond and very helpful with transfers, - Fantastic property, beautifully renovated, very comfortable and in a great location for sightseeing and wandering around. Nothing!
- jim (10/5): excellent property and location - Alex met us and was very helpful with tips and recommendation
- Kathryn (10/5): Perfection! - This property is gorgeous! It’s in impeccable condition and it’s in the heart of Plaka, my favorite area in Athens!
My family and I had a fantastic stay, easy to walk to all the must see sites, comfortable to come home to, and the owners were extremely helpful and lovely. Just wish we could have stayed longer! We’ll definitely be back! Nothing bad to say about this place :)
- Emiko (10/5): The best accommodation we‘ve ever had!! - The location is very good, and high-tech apartment.
We were 200 % satisfied with the apartment.
Alexandros & Boris were very helpful. Nothing
- Robin (10/5): This property was fabulous and exceeded all expectations with travelers in mind! - Rating 10 of 10! A perfect oasis right in the city center! Home was tastefully decorated and high tech was obvious throughout the home. We loved the history of the home and careful curation of decor and all of the thoughtful amenities throughout the home! The host communicated exceptionally from beginning to check out! Truly the best home we have stayed in. Sheer perfection of you are ever staying in Athens, this will be your home away from home!
- Eric (10/5): Private modern villa fortress at foot of the Acropolis! - The location is incredible! Tucked away on a quiet side street but thirty steps away from all the shops and restaurants you could ever hope for. Comfortable walking distance to all of the best attractions without ever having to get in a taxi. And the house itself is amazingly over-built with high quality furnishings and craftsmanship. Separate washer AND dryer units came in super handy after our island hopping Odyssey - no more drying racks yay! The beautifully incorporated Roman mosaic tile along with the electronic storm shutters and bank vault digital entry door make it feel like your own private modern villa fortress at the foot of the Acropolis! There is no vehicle access to the front door so transport pickup/drop off is around the corner at a nice little restaurant with an outdoor dining space. The alleyway is open and flat with no stairs so easy access for strollers and suitcases.
- Revital (10/5): We’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommended! - We had an amazing stay at this place in Athens! The apartment was spacious, beautifully designed, and had everything we needed. We were four friends traveling together, and it was absolutely perfect and so comfortable for us. The host was wonderful—super friendly, explained everything clearly, and was always available if we needed anything. It truly felt like a luxurious experience. We’ll definitely be coming back! Highly recommended!
- Sara (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jessica (10/5): Exquisite accommodation, fabulous host and a Roman mosaic - what more could you want! - Exquisite
This is without doubt the best and most beautiful accommodation in Athens. It is so apparent that Alexandros has lavished an enormous amount of care on this beautiful building and that his attention to detail is second to none.
The attention to care shows in the quality of the finish and fabulous facilities and craftsmanship. We (two family groups of three) enjoyed every moment of staying in the house. The location is fabulous - right in the heart of Plaka and peaceful and tranquil at the same time. Alexandros ensured that there is everything you could need - simple things like washing up liquid to exceptionally lovely toiletries and use of a washing machine and dryer. Beautiful lighting, bluetooth speakers for music, comfortable sofas, spacious dining, lovely crockery and glassware. The beds are beyond comfortable. The decor is so tasteful and considered. I’ve come away feeling the need to update my house - and will be stealing a couple of interior design ideas from Alexandros’s place (the beautiful wood stairs/banister, the concealed stair lights, the opaque pocket doors to the dressing areas and bathrooms).
The MOSAIC - oh my goodness, what a privilege and joy! Obviously Athens is steeped in heritage but having the Roman mosaic in the house was spine tingling tangible (madness to think that the family that installed that flooring would have walked through Hadrian’s arch (500m away) when it was new!). It is fabulous.
The exterior of the house is equally fabulous and we would often return to the house to find little mini photos sessions happening with the house as a backdrop.
Alexandros is a brilliant host - he answered questions prior to arrival, sorted airport transfers and kept in touch. His suggestions for eating out and bars were brilliant and definitely the nicest places we tried.
If you are reading this review trying to decide if this is the place to stay - hesitate no longer, book it - it will be the best thing you do.
- Jan (10/5): Alexandros was a super host. Very modern accommodation with plenty of space as described. Alexandros gave us recommendat - Centre of Plaka. Very modern and clean property. Nothing
- Ella (10/5): It was too short! - A very beautifully designed home in the perfect location! The host was very easy to communicate with and very gracious to work with. It was extremely clean…it felt as if we were the first to experience this unique home in ancient Athens. We will be back! I highly recommend this home for your stay in Athens. We walked to the Acropolis!
- לבון (10/5): Exceptional - Wow – the place was beyond all our expectations. We came for a vacation (six friends), and a central part of the trip was this amazing house. Everything was beyond imagination: the rooms, the design, the tranquility, the location. Every time we left the house, we saw people taking pictures of the house from the outside because it was so beautiful – and it was even more beautiful on the inside. Spacious and large rooms, an amazing kitchen, balconies, and a private yard – more than we could have ever imagined. Alexander the host was available for anything, helped us with any questions about the area, and with any questions we had before and during our stay. Highly recommended!
- Andrew (10/5): An amazing house in a wonderful location. - We loved everything. The house is very special. It has been beautifully designed with so much thought . We were sad to leave. The entrance is stunning. Great location. Spacious. Quiet. Highly recommended.
- Joana (10/5): Perfection! A must stay. - Wonderful location and amazing house. Very well decorated with large sitting areas in the center of Plaka. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed this property very much. It has ruins dating to 4000BC in the property! Alexandros was very responsive and helpful. A must stay for anyone visiting Athens.
- Pimentel (10/5): The best location and an amazing property! - This property was absolutely amazing. Really good location for walking to restaurants, acropolis, shopping and other historical monuments. We were a group of 4 adults and we would definitely stay here again. Alexandros the host was very knowledgeable, accommodating and helpful with suggestions. Thank you so much for a memorable vacation! There was nothing to dislike about this property!
- Peter (10/5): Exceptional -
