With a backdrop of the Temple of Olympic Zeus and the Acropolis looming in the distance, this apartment puts the ancient sites of Athens within striking distance. Make the ten-minute walk to the Archaeological Museum and foot of the Acropolis, and explore the narrow, winding streets of the Plaka neighbourhood just beyond. The apartment itself is a modern medley of pristine white walls and geometric features livening things up. It’s a delight to return to the plush velvet sofa after a day in the city. The living room has plenty of space for dining, and the sleek kitchen in shining chrome is tucked away with everything you need for self-catering. There’s a private balcony too, which is a real bonus, furnished with a bistro set for a breath of fresh air. Home truths: *At capacity, two guests will be on a sofabed in the living room *There is no parking with this home, but there's a public multi-story carpark nearby *Quiet hours are in effect between 1pm and 5pm and 10pm and 7am
