We stayed as a family of four. The place is clean, modern, and new. We walked everywhere because it’s so close to the major attractions and local restaurants there were really good. Great choice for Athens.
My family of four enjoyed our stay at this apartment in the heart of Athens. The place is very close to the Acropolis and other attractions. Valentina (our property manager) took great care of us and ensured that the place was well-furnished. The apartment is exactly as described and has everything we needed as a family of four.
Great location in central Athens walkable to all the monuments and restaurants/facilities you're likely to need. Near instantaneous responses from property managers who were incredibly polite and available any time (not that we had any issues). Airport pickup and dropoff went flawlessly and they were even able to arrange it during a taxi strike. All in all, a very pleasurable experience and exemplifying that Greek hospitality you read about in the guidebooks. Would recommend whole-heartedly. The place looks just like the pictures.Only word of caution is that the bedrooms do have some traffic noise. So if that bothers you, you might want to pick a more tucked away location. But that will add to your commute. Harry and Velia were wonderful as were their drivers Panos and Giannis! This is my second trip to Athens in 15 months and I've fallen in love with the wonderful people and food of Greece - not to mention their incredible history. Thank you for a wonderful family vacation!
Un fantástico apartamento imprescindible para tu visita a Atenas. El emplazamiento es ideal, muy bien conectado en las afueras del barrio de Placa. Muy completo, con todas las comodidades. Muy tranquilo. Alquilamos un coche para excursiones a las afueras por unos días, y no tuvimos ningún problema para aprovechar prácticamente en la misma puerta durante todos los dias. Y las atenciones de la agencia tanto a la llegada como durante la estancia han sido geniales.

About the host
Hosted by Harry
A very warm welcome from me, Theoharis, the owner of Vilaman ΙΚΕ, the property management company that is running this property. Having traveled extensively in the Americas, SE Asia and Europe, and being a demanding traveller myself, I adapted my experiences to my native Greece and combined them with our philoxenia: the ancient greek word that literally means a “friend to a stranger” and is synonymous to hospitality. For Greeks however, it is something deeper than that., it is an unspoken cultural law that shows generosity and courtesy to strangers. In addition, my personal relationship with each property owner allows me to make sure that everything runs smoothly, as desired, so that our every guest feels at home at our properties and takes a unique experience and unforgettable memories back home with them.
