We were fortunate to find this lovely apartment, walking distance to all the ancient sites in Athens that we wanted to see, including the Acropolis and Hadrian's library, plus surrounded by great restaurants, shopping, and nightlife. Our hosts were very communicative and helpful, organizing rides and helping stow our luggage when we arrived a bit early in the day. All five of us were very comfortable! We had a terrific stay and loved exploring the Plaka neighborhood from this perfect location. Highly recommended!

We booked this at the last minute due to some issues with our earlier reservation. Everythis went smoothly. The apartment was excellent in every way — location, comfort, amenities. Fully recommend to anyone looking to be close to the historical monuments and to great food, local markets and much more.
4.8
Great location within walking distance to many restaurants and the acropolis/parthenon.

This rental could not have been more conveniently located! It was so close to the Acropolis and museum, great restaurants, grocery, etc. It was also very walkable to other major sites in Athens. The hosts had great communication and was very accommodating in helping with our luggage before check in and after check out. I will warn there is absolutely zero parking anywhere nearby - so not the place to stay with a vehicle. The apartment was very spacious, clean, and we loved that we could catch up on some laundry while there, too! Thank you!

The apartment is very conveniently located, and the view from the roof deck is stunning.

Great location. Plenty of room for all of us to spread out. Full kitchen helped with reheating leftovers and preparing breakfasts. Fabulous and easy checkin.
4.8
Nice apartment and George at Meno was helpful with arranging transfers. The only issues we had were that there was no dish soap or way to wash the dishes. An almost empty roll of paper towels was not helpful. Overall, the apartment was clean and the location was ideal.
4.8
Honestly couldn't get a better location it was definitely nice having A/C Washer was nice as is typical in Europe there was no dryer. water heater needed to be turned on a few minutes before showering so planning was necessary but not a big deal

Our family loved this property and the owner was accommodating to let us check in early after our long flight from the US. Very helpful and accommodating, even before we arrived and quickly to help us plan a fantastic trip!
4.8
This apartment closely matches the description on the website and is in a great location in Plaka for touring the historical sites. It is in an older building, which does have a few quirks. The hosts were responsive and proactive about making sure we had everything we needed, and the place was very clean. The mattresses are very firm, so if you are accustomed to memory foam, this may not be a good place for you.
4.8
Overall, our stay was very good. The location was excellent. We walked everywhere. Food shopping was 2 blocks away. It was a great family vacation. We had breakfasts together in the apartment every day and even dinner on the roof one night. One thing to be aware of, the description states that there is a view of the museum and Acropolis rock from the apartment. That may be true in winter, but all we could see is foliage. The lovely view in all the photos is from the roof and that was a great benefit to have.
4.8
We found this location super convenient! Several fantastic coffee shops, bakeries, and restaurants all within 5 min walks in any direction.
4.8
The apartment is in a fabulous location near the Acropolis and was very spacious. George was very helpful and responsive to our needs. The bathrooms and kitchen are in need of some updating, and there were no sponges, soap or working dishwasher in the kitchen. The apartment feels a little bit dated but was still very pleasant.
4.8
Great location, quiet at night. 2 blocks down from acropolis!! Great find. Very reasonably priced for 5 adults sharing cost. Had everything we needed.
4.8
We loved our stay in this local Athens apartment. In walking distance of the Acropolis, Plaka, Philiapappos Hill and more! All ammenities were provided as listed and great communication with the host. The only improvement would be more comfortable beds for guests.
4.8
The Apartment is in a perfect location on the edge of Plaka. Great base to explore Athens City with a view of the Acropolis. Communication from the host was everything you could ask for including help getting from the Airport.
The Apartment itself is a great size easily sleeping a family of five with room to spare. There is a great Local Bakery around the corner which is a must try. You couldn't wish the Apartments location to be any better with the back entrance of the Acropolis museum at the end of the road.
Easy to walk to all attractions on foot and the metro station is only a couple of minutes away if you would prefer. We had an amazing time here exploring Athens.
4.8
It’s a lovely property in an ideal location. Our only disappointment was that in one of the twin bedrooms there was insufficient space to open the wardrobe doors. The view of the Parthenon from the top balcony was fabulous.
4.8
This is an absolutely perfect apartment. It couldn't be any more perfectly situated. Just a short walk from anywhere and the metro just around the corner.
Also an amazing bakery on the next road, a great little bar and coffee shop opposite the bakery and two small supermarkets.
4.8
My family and I spent 6 nights at this apartment located right under the Acropolis and near the Plaka neighborhood. It was a fantastic location and the apartment was as described. There are many restaurants near by and a great bakery right around the corner. George arranged pick up and drop off at airport and everything went seamlessly. He also arranged daytrips for us. We had a private van and a fantastic driver Vasilis. I would highly recommend this apartment and doing some day trips out of the city if time permits.
4.8
Family trip to see Greek cousins and visit sites to learn our heritage, culture and traditions. All the key sites were in walking distance. Parthenon Museum just around the corner. The flat was clean and comfortable for our family. Night view on the rooftop is wonderful. Pickup and drop off shuttle service for airport was well worth it. Already planning our next visit and will stay here again. Opaa!
4.8
Wonderful, spacious apartment near the backside of the Acropolis Museum and the south entrance to the Acropolis. Two blocks from the Plaka and the museum and South entrance to the Acropolis. Everything you need is right out your door. A wonderful bakery, coffee shop and a market are just around the corner. An easy walk to most everything around the Acropolis and if you want to venture further there's plenty of available taxi's as well as the Hop On Hop Off tour buses just behind the Acropolis Museum. The apartment building also has a lovely roof top deck that is open each evening.
4.8
Is very close to the Acropolis and the museum and plenty of wonderful shopping and excellent food! I highly recommend the personal tours offered by Meno. The drivers were very courteous and knowledgeable made it very easy to get from our cruise ship to the property and back to the airport and a day tour.
4.8
The apartment manager George was incredibly communicative and kind to us before, during, and after our stay. Nothing but kind things to say about him and the place he had us stay. Walking distance to the main sites and right near the heart of Plaka and

This property was spacious for our family of five. The owner had a driver waiting for us when we got off the plane. When we arrived at the house, the driver was very informative about rules of the home and places to visit and eat. The location was in close proximity to the parthenon, shops, and restaurants. It was also very quiet, safe, and best of all, we had air-conditioning. The only issue we ran into was a miscommunication to get a ride back to the airport. It all worked out, and we got a taxi. I would just suggest to be sure to email George a couple days before if you need to arrange transportation. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

The apartment itself is lovely…upon arrival we were greeted and brought in to pay our security deposit. The credit card I used to originally pay for my stay had been compromised while I was traveling and due to my being abroad I wasn’t able to access its replacement.
George wanted to put the security deposit hold on the credit card I originally used for payment and when he heard it was not active he told me he would have to charge me again for the original payment on a different card as the security deposit and original form of payment had to be on the same card. He said he would refund my original payment. This raised some concerns for me but I went along with it and asked for a receipt of the refund be sent to my email as he could charge me but not refund me on site. I called the office later that day checking on the refund as I had not revived an email. I was told I could not be refunded until George brought in the receipt of the new charge. Twenty four hours later after two more calls I did receive a screenshot of an email in Greek telling his bank to refund me. Here we are two weeks later and I still have not received this refund though. George tells me “there is nothing else he can do. It is the matter of the banks now”

Perfect location for our 2 days prior to cruise departure. Also assistance in setting up all tours and transfers was fabulous and easy. Very accommodating!!
4.8
European apartment in great location. Close to restaurants and markets. Easily accommodated 5 of us in 3 bedrooms with fast working air conditioning. Apartment was on 3rd floor (by American standards) and building had an elevator that was small but handy. There were some steps between the front door and elevator. Rooftop access had amazing view of Acropolis and surrounding city. Overall, we were very happy with our stay.
4.8
Apartment is cute and very functional. Sleeps a family of six quote easily. It is in the centre of the action yet in a quiet street. You can walk pretty much everywhere from here. George was very kind and let us in early to store our luggage. We arrived early so had to leave our luggage at the apartment to get lunch. The apartment was clean and ready by the time we came back.
4.8
This was a great base for our trip to Athens as everything is walkable. The flat was nice and the host was great.

We had a lovely time at George’s apartment. It was centrally located with great restaurants nearby. We would absolutely stay there again!
4.8
Every aspect of renting the apartment was perfect: the transfers to and from the airport, instructions on the use of the apartment, courtesy of all the personnel. This was an exceptional experience
4.8
We had such a wonderful time in Athens! The apartment was clean and inviting and the view of the Acropolis from the balcony was amazing. There was plenty of room for our family of 6 and it was such a short walk to a wonderful museum, grocery store, and a market street that had everything from restaurants to jewelry and custom-made sandals. The day trip packages George offers are also outstanding. We requested all of them and loved every single one. We truly did make memories for a lifetime and are so glad we made the choice to stay here for our family vacation in Greece.
4.8
This was the perfect place for our family to stay at while in Athens . It is literally at the foot of the Acropolis.

Great location
The apartment is in a great location. Can’t get any closer to the Parthenon. The management company was very helpful. And the apartment is much more spacious than I anticipated.

Fantastic location
Our first trip to Athens, and this place made it easy! We walked everywhere, our driver John took great care of us, and we were so comfortable. Thank you!
4.8
Location to Acropolis and Museum can't be beat
Access to the sky garden, while a spectacular view and worth the effort, is very restrictive. You have to plan you 'sunset' and dining hours around it.
