Introducing the Acropolis-View Penthouse | Haute Athenian
Where Timeless Views Meet Modern Athenian Elegance

Welcome to the Haute Athenian Penthouse—a 100sqm design haven in Athens’ vibrant Pangrati neighborhood, crafted for travelers who crave style, comfort, and a front-row seat to the city’s magic.

Your Athens Oasis
Freshly renovated in 2025, this penthouse blends sleek sophistication with soulful charm. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame uninterrupted views of the Acropolis and Lycabettus Hill, while designer touches—like the B&B Italia sofa and Kave Home dining table—create a space that’s as Instagram-worthy as it is cozy. Host up to 6 guests in two artfully curated bedrooms, featuring a plush king bed, two singles, and optional extra beds for flexibility.

Cook, Dine, Unwind—With a View
The fully equipped Venetta Cucine kitchen invites you to whip up Greek feasts or morning smoothies, paired with Zara Home tableware for every meal. Dine indoors at the 8-seater table or head to the spacious veranda, where a lounge area and al fresco dining setup let you toast to sunset vistas over Lycabettus’ iconic Saint George Church.

Designed for Discerning Travelers
Owned by Elina Svirou—globetrotter and founder of the Greek lifestyle brand Always on Sunday—this home reflects her passion for merging Athenian cool with worldly flair. From Hydra-island ceramics to Trussardi bathroom amenities, every detail whispers curated luxury.

Location, Location, Location
Step outside, and Athens’ heartbeat is at your doorstep:
- 5-minute stroll to the National Gallery and chic Kolonaki Square.
- 10-minute walk to the National Garden’s leafy tranquility.
- Wander another 15 minutes and you reach the Acropolis and its legendary museum—history made tangible.
- Metro Station moments away for seamless city exploration.

Pangrati neighborhood remains a peaceful retreat, where hip cafés, artisan ceramics studios, and laid-back tavernas buzz just blocks away.

**Exceptional** I’ve been trying to come up with a review to encourage you to book this place, just bookmark it if available. Cleaner than a new hotel, crisp new bedding, plenty of space for our family with three kids. The place was renovated with care and attention to detail, it reminds me that people still care. The host was great and I hope that it is just as nice when we return to Athens next time. Exceeded expectations, thanks for having us!

I stayed in this apartment for three weeks and it could not have been better. There are small amenities that are not listed in the description which were a pleasant surprise. The location is perfect for grabbing a taxi or walking to many of the main attractions. The space would be perfect for a small family or a couple who is working on vacation. The apartment is modern and the pictures are not as nice as what you will see when you arrive. The view of the Parthenon is spectacular.

This was one of my most favorite stays every. It's in a residential neighborhood where Athens life really happens, not a tourist area. It's very walkable, there are grocery stores, resaurants, coffee shops, parks and bake shops on nearly every block or corner.The condo is beautiful. Watching sunsets over the acropolis is amazing. The balony, bedrooms and living spaces are very large.Tons of storage to keep luggage out of the way adds extra calm.Elina, our host is very very acomodating, friendly, and great to talk to.

A Stylish, Relaxed Stay with Acropolis Views

We stayed here for one night and had a really lovely experience. The flat is freshly renovated, beautifully designed, with eclectic touches throughout — from the carefully chosen ceramics to the great selection of coffee table books. The space feels thoughtfully put together, very welcoming, and spotlessly clean.The highlight for us was the spacious terrace, which offers a great view of the Acropolis — perfect for enjoying a chilled glass of wine in the evening. It’s a great spot to relax and take in the urban Athenian atmosphere.The hosts were fantastic — super friendly, responsive, and made everything easy. The location in Pagrati is also a big plus. It’s ideal if you want to be close to the center without being right in the middle of all the hustle and tourist crowds. The neighborhood feels lively and local, with a relaxed vibe and great cafes, restaurants, and little shops all around. We felt safe and at ease walking around, even at night.Would warmly recommend :)

This has been our finest VRBO rental experience ever. Our host could not have been more accommodating. The penthouse did indeed have an Acropolis view, as well as a pleasant, safe neighborhood in which to experience Athens. Bakery, groceries, coffee shops all within a couple blocks.The apartment was wonderfully stocked with practical items: laundry supplies, drying rack, tea, coffee, spices, cold water in the fridge, and even a basket of munchies as a welcome on our arrival. The penthouse was beautifully appointed with artistic furniture, room design, and ambiance.The veranda was heaven! Such a view, cooling awnings, greenery, we could have lived out there. The building was very secure, with multiple layers of security. Our host provided us with a 17-page user manual, sent 3 days prior to our arrival. It was thorough! And very, very helpful. Special note: Our host was very flexible with our arrangements, allowing for an early check-in, as well as allowing us to stay an additional day when our departure flight was suddenly cancelled. Her fees were very reasonable for all our special needs.Please believe me when I say our host’s personality and her beautiful accommodations made this a must-have rental!

About the host

Hosted by Elina Svirou

Host profile image
Hi, my name is Elina and I am an avid traveler. Currently I am founder and creative director of the greek brand Always on Sunday. Last year I decided to do a complete and stylish renovation of this penthouse and offer it for rental to other travelers through this platform, with a mission to offer them excellent and unforgettable customer experience. The guest experience I aim to offer is comfort blended with eclectic style, attention to detail, and sharing with you my tips for the best places in the city (in my opinion at least!)

Why they chose this property

This property used to be the house where I was born and grew up. It a unique penthouse as it is located in hip Pangrati area, just a few mins walk from the vibin' scene of Archelaou street. However it is situated in the most quiet of streets and offers spectacular views to the Acropolis and Lycabettus.

What makes this property unique

Thanks to its ideal location the Haute Athenian penthouse offers direct uninhibited views to the Acropolis from the comfort of the living room couch. The Haute Athenian pentouse veranda is privileged with breath-taking views of the Acropolis from the veranda lounge as well as monumental views of Lycabetus from the veranda dining area.
It is strategically situated on the 6th floor of a building located in the quiet part of Pangrati area, just a 5 minute walk from the breezy scene of Archelaou street, the National Gallery, the metro and public transportation that can take you anywhere around town or even to the Athens Riviera.
