About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The ideal house at the foot of Acropolis.

My apartment is a spacious and cozy place 63 square meters, perfectly located in the heart of the historic center of Athens, in the neighborhood of Thiseio, few meters away from Apostolou Pavlou pedestrian street. Acropolis Hill and Ancient Agora is only 10 minutes walking.
The location couldn’t be better.
The metro station is only 3 minutes away thats why it is an ideal getaway destination for someone who wants to explore the city of Athens.
The view from the shared rooftop (3 floors up by narrow, typical, back stairs) is spectacular. Guests can enjoy the privacy of the whole apartment which I always make sure to be clean and neat.
Whenever is in our hand, we will be glad to offer an early check-in or late check-out.

Irene was wonderful, the location amazing. I don’t think we could find a better location. The place was clean & comfortable. Great rooftop & balcony seating. Half a block to rooftop restaurants overlooking the Acropolis & a grocery store 1/2 a block in the other direction. We had a lovely stay.

Best place to stay in Athens

Irini was a wonderful Host. She met us early and helped us get in and showed us around the apartment and explained the unique things there. She told us where shopping and best restaurants were. The Acropolis is view able from the rooftop. The people on the street and in the businesses were friendly and helpful. It was a wonderful "neighborhood" feeling

Irene was the absolute best host! She went above and beyond to make us feel at home. The apartment was immaculately clean and had all the comforts of home. My daughter and I loved this apartment, and its location was a perfect mix of tourist and local. Irene also hooked us up with the best taxi driver. Defiantly recomend!

Simply Perfect in Thissio!

Our stay at Irene's property in Athens was an absolute dream, earning every one of its five stars!The Thissio neighborhood itself is a gem, offering truly stunning views of the Acropolis that are even more breathtaking in person. We spent hours happily exploring the area on foot, with incredible sights and experiences around every corner.Irene was an exceptional host – very responsive and incredibly helpful from booking to checkout. Her apartment was nothing short of perfect. It was spotlessly clean and wonderfully well-stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable and convenient stay. We truly felt at home.We can't recommend Irene's VRBO enough for anyone visiting Athens. If you're looking for an ideal location, fantastic amenities, and a superb host, this is the place!
