We really like the place. It was cute, clean and spacious. The area was safe and had everything within a walking distance. The only reason why I didn’t give it a 5 star is because I wasn’t a fan of the mattresses, some were too soft and others too firm, and the pillows were too flat. Either than that everything was perfect!

Fantastic Place to Stay

Fantastic stay! Our family stayed in Athens for a couple of days before we headed to the islands. The location of this place was PERFECT. It was within walking distance of everything we wanted to see, but it also wasn’t in a loud neighborhood—a really great balance. The owner of the property was very accommodating and provided us with many great ideas for things to do and places to eat. The list of restaurants was our favorite part! We ate at a lot of places where locals like, rather than the touristy restaurants. This apartment was very clean and well-maintained. We took a midday break in between sightseeing, and were able to comfortably rest in the air conditioned apartment. I highly recommend this place and would come back without a doubt.

The property was super-clean. Hector, the property manager, connected with us via text ahead of time and was accessible and helpful throughout our stay. Beds were comfortable. The apartment is located within a short walk to The Acropolis. We were very happy with this apartment. Check-in / check-out instructions were simple and easy to follow. Excellent choice for stay in Athens.

Great Place Near the Acropolis

This is one of multiple properties which Blue Ark has in the city, and this one is within a 5-10 minute walk of the Acropolis metro station. The area around the property was safe and pretty walkable. There are multiple places to eat all around it. The apartment has everything you’ll need to get by while you stay there. The sheets and floors were all clean. The AC worked very well in both bedrooms and the common area. The only major downside were the beds which were a little uncomfortable, but definitely not a deal breaker. I can easily recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in Athens a few nights to see the major sights in the city.

Located just a stone's throw away from the majestic Acropolis, this cozy apartment is a hidden gem in the heart of Athens. Its prime location makes it an ideal choice for travelers eager to explore the city's ancient wonders. Despite its proximity to the bustling tourist hub, the apartment offers a peaceful retreat, allowing guests to unwind after a day of sightseeing. With its comfortable amenities and friendly hosts, it provides a welcoming haven for anyone looking to experience the magic of Athens up close.

Our recent stay in this family apartment near Acropolis was fantastic! The location was unbeatable, just steps from the Acropolis, making sightseeing a breeze. The apartment itself was spacious, well-designed, and equipped with everything a family needs. The staff was friendly and went above and beyond. Our experience was memorable, and we would absolutely return for future visits to Athens. Highly recommended!
