About the host
Hosted by Paul Firos
After selling my software company in the USA my wife and I, both art collectors, founded the Herakleidon Museum situated not far from this rental. Our main house in Athens connects to the rental through the garden. We bought it and restored it to accommodate our many guests. We decided to rent it and all proceeds are donated to our museum.
Why they chose this property
Location, location, location. Look at the map and you will realize that it is located at the heart of the Unified Archeological Sites of Athens. From here you can walk everywhere and if what you want to see is further away, the metro station is a mere ten minutes walk. It is a fully equipped contemporary apartment in a two story house. It occupies the top floor and below is our storage space. You will be the only tenants during your stay.
What makes this property unique
After spending a couple of hours on top of the Acropolis in the summer you will appreciate the option to return to the apartment, relax, take a shower and resume your visit. Please note that Google Maps shows the Acropolis being 2.6 miles away! This is an absurdity since you can walk to the top in less than 15 minutes.
