Our family’s stay in Athens was amazing, mostly due to the location of the home and the wonderful hospitality of the hosts and locals. The Plaka neighborhood is beautiful and buzzing with energy yet the home felt peaceful and provided us a little haven to rest up when we weren’t out exploring. We will hopefully stay again as we fell in love with Athens.

We loved our stay at Ancient Athens Great Apt Home Office w/Acropolis View! The apartment looks exactly like the pictures; well decorated apartment with a view of the Acropolis. The location is outstanding; we were able to walk to all the main attractions and had great restaurants right outside our door. We highly recommend this apartment.

This apartment is right on a busy, sometimes loud square in Plaka, but the bedrooms are in the back, and with the AC on, the apartment was blissfully cool and quiet. Perfectly clean, had everything we needed, and a stylish modern vibe, very centrally located. Would recommend!

Truly beautiful inside and out. And even though right on the Plaka it’s completely quiet inside. George and his team are super responsive and kind. I can’t recommend this more highly. And that view of the acropolis—breathtaking!

The apartment was in the heart of Plaka, with tons of restaurants and shopping at your doorstep. The host was very attentive and meet us at the apartment to show us everything we needed to know. Very clean apartment.

We loved our stay at this apartment. The bedrooms were well appointed and the bathrooms were modern and huge! We liked that there were lots of drawers and closets for our belongings. The air conditioning was some of the best we've experienced in Europe. There was plenty of room for hanging out in the living area. George was helpful when checking us in.
The location was great for reaching all the big tourist sights in Athens. We were able to walk almost everywhere we wanted to go (Acropolis, Acropolis Museum, etc). Note that this apartment is on a bustling square in a touristy area, so if you are looking for something off-the-beaten path, this isn't it. The area definitely got crowded at times. The apartment, however, was quiet and relaxing.

The apartment was perfectly located in Plaka, central to everything acropolis related. tons of restaurants and good walking distance to many sites.
the host was great, the apartment was amazing, loved every part of our stay.

Perfect location to visit all the historic sites. No transport needed once arrive from airport. Transport was arranged for our group by the property manager. We walked everywhere (only 5-10 walk) to visit: Acropolis, Hadrian’s Arch, National Park, Tomb of Unknown Soldier, food, and shops. A little loud in evenings if trying to sleep due to nearby restaurants, but didn’t matter to our group.

Lovely apartment, clean, has everything you need and it is located right in the center for shopping & restaurants, The Acropolis, the Acropolis museum and the Temple of Zeus are near by. We will stay here again if available.
5.0
The location is fantastic! You are in Plaka and can walk the entire city easily. The apartment is luxurious, although VRBO could have supplied more personal amenities such as toilet paper, dishwasher soap, towels, etc. Otherwise, we significantly enjoyed our stay there. Also, we used VRBO to book our transfers to and from the airport and a day long trip to Meteora for four. Transportation was A+.
5.0
The property was very nice and well presented. George was very communicative about the process from the very beginning. The apartment is located in the heart of Plaka and within walking distance of the Acropolis and the other Athens sites. I would recommend this location and property to anyone! Thanks, George, for making this reservation easy and enjoyable!

This is one of the best holiday rentals we have stayed in. The apartment is very light, spacious, stylish and comfortable and no more than a 10 min walk from all the sites, with good restaurants close by (the Ionos restaurant downstairs makes a very good Aperol Spritz!)
Two good sized ensuite bedrooms with very comfy beds - both bedrooms are at the back of the apartment so you do not hear anything from the square outside the front.
We would definitely stay here again if we come back to Athens and highly recommend the apartment.

This is one property that exceeded our expectations. We signed up for an airport pickup and Vasili was really knowledgeable on Greek history and the historical sites which was a good introduction to the country. The apartment is located in the heart of the Plaka with restaurants all around it. You step outside of the apartment and to the left is the perfect spot for capuchinos. The Acropolis is about a 10 minute walk. The apartment had two nice sized bedrooms and two enormous bathrooms. Apartment was tastefully decorated as well. Finally, property manager George was very prompt in his correspondence. Overall an amazing apartment at a great location.

Great location for all highlights of Athens! The apartment was spotless, well equipped, and the host was very accommodating. We were pleased with the optional shuttle service as well. Would definitely book with this host again.

We stayed here for one week! It was wonderful- centrally located in the Plaka; very modern, clean and well equipped with many appliances!
George was very easy to deal with and arranged a beautiful one-day tour of the ancient cities of Greece. Thank you, George!

The entire process from booking till check out was unbelievable. The apartment is exactly how it is shown in the listing. The host/property managers was very responsive, so the communication was excellent.
The property is located in the heart of Plaka and everything is very accessible.
It is well maintained and clean.
If I travel to Athens again, I will love to stay here again.

Located in a very nice plaza with restaurants and bars just below you. Although you don't hear a noise due to the isolation of the windows. You are walking distance from everything you need to see and do in Athenas. The 2 bedrooms have very spacious bathrooms and also has a half bathroom supporting the living area. Looks like a decorated designer apartment.
5.0
Fantastic stay. Very clean, very modern, very comfortable. Literally steps from a dozen restaurants and shops. Also only a few minutes walk to many historic sites like Hadrians gate and the Acropolis (which yes, you can see from the windows). There is a small grocery store just down the road. George was a pleasure to work with and super helpful. Can’t say enough good things about this apartment. If you get a chance to stay here, take it.

As Greek-Americans we visit Athens every time we come back to visit for a couple days and love staying in the wonderful neighborhood of Plaka.
This was our first time at this apartment and it did not disappoint. George was a wonderful host and very timely with communication and offered a lot of services that we didn't necessarily need, like transportation and Tours, but for those new to Athens I'm sure it would be very welcome.
The apartment is located right in the heart of Plaka and within walking distance of all the great tourist experiences and Greek food to take in.
It was clean and spacious and the whole family loved it.
We highly recommend highly recommend anyone staying here.

We could not have asked for a better location than the apartment in Plaka. The layout o is very accommodating and beautifully decorated. A few recommendations would be to have extra garbage bags available since it is necessary to empty them often. In both bedrooms the sheets didn’t fit the mattresses properly. One extra set of towels might be nice just in case one is needed.
Our host, George, was great. He replied promptly to messages and was there to meet us as we arrived. He was very thorough with his explanation of the apartment. We would rent this listing again on our return to Athens.

The property was stunning, in the perfect location, and great for our group of two couples who had 2 days to spend. George was very helpful and quick to respond to our queries. We would return and recommend this highly.

A modern super well equipped 2 bedroom 2 1/2 bath apartment. Walking distance to everything. A bit noisy at night but the bedrooms are in the back and noise was not a problem. During a rare night in we watched a movie on the new big screen TV with no issues. Really enjoyed the place.
The management was best I have experience. Professional, helpful, responsive and easy to contact.

Great view and location. Amazing restaurants.
George was helpful in arranging the transfers and tours..
But, we did not have dishwashing detergent and garbage bags- took some time for replacement.
Highly recommend!

This flat is very clean and well appointed. It is in a perfect location to see all of ancient Athens. Also close to markets, shops and restaurants. George was very responsive to any questions and organized transportation to and from the airport along with two other lovely tours. Highly recommend.

Everything was just as promised online. The bathrooms were out of this world! At least eight restaurants right outside your door. Convenient to everything you’d want to see in Athens. The Acropolis is right outside your window. Great people to rent from.
5.0
This property was fantastic in many ways and location, location, location is at the top of the list. Nestled in an area that provided numerous options for eating out and purchasing items for the apartment. The walk to Acropolis was easy and took us through winding shopping streets. The apartment was just as described - spacious and perfect for our two couples and very well provisioned!
5.0
For first time visitors to Greece, this was a perfect choice! The owner offered an airport pick up and return for a very competitive price and we rate Visilis 5+. He was thoughtful, helped teach us a few basic phrases, and was gracious answering our first timer questions about Athens. The apartment was right in the heart of Plaka, multiple restaurant and shopping options right outside our door. Oh...and we had a view of the Acropolis sight right out the living room window! From the moment you open the door you go from tourist mecca to at home peace and comfort. Confession, we even watched TV a couple of evenings. We rate this Apartment 5+++ service, 5+++location, 5+++ comfort and amenities.
Thank you George! Karen and Linda
