Monastiraki Urban Apartment, Next to Metro Station, Walking Distance to Plaka

Feel the buzz in the heart of downtown Athens. A fully-renovated urban hub located in what is known as the ‘Commercial Triangle.’ Comfy, minimalistic, and stylish. A mid 1900s building with a revamped interior. A balcony that overlooks the lively paved streets and charming alleys. Look up towards your right. Yes, it’s the Parthenon.

After an adventurous day exploring, shopping, and eating, walking into your Aiolou 1 apartment will have you kicking off your shoes and lounging on the comfy sofa.
The apartment features a spacious living room; its tasteful décor reflecting the diversity of Athens.
Sit back on the snug patchwork armchair and read a book, or lay on the sofa and switch on the 60’ smart TV ultra HD 4k flat screen with surround sound system.

Head over to the balcony to people watch and to catch a glimpse of the Acropolis before you head on over yourself.

As the Athens central market (Varvakeios Agora) is just a stone’s throw away, make sure to go shopping in order to make use of the apartment’s fully-equipped kitchen. Which also includes a Nespresso coffee machine, teapot with complimentary English tea, conventional coffee maker, kettle, and toaster.

The two bedrooms feature high quality mattresses and linen plus abundant closet space.

The renovated bathroom features a walk-in shower and is fully stocked with towels, toiletries, and a hair dryer.

Regardless of the season, your stay will be accompanied by your ideal temperature as the apartment has individual air-conditioning units in both the living and bedroom areas.

Enjoyable stay

Everything about our stay went smoothly, comfortably, and cleanly. We loved the balcony where we could watch the people pass by and the stray cats. We would highly recommend if you want to stay in the heart of a city. Easy to walk to Acropolis (we are active) and many sights and restaurants. Pizza shop across the way was also delicious and so convenient.

Nice apartment

Great location, near restaurants, shopping, public transportation. It did get a little noisy in the evenings due to it being in the middle of a busy area. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the morning as it has a great view of the Acropolis.

Great Stay in Central Location

The apartment was perfect for our family of four (two adult children). It was very clean, well equipped and spacious--photos were accurate. We took the metro from the airport to Monastiraki, then a five-minute walk to the apartment, where the very helpful Sefat was waiting for us. The location was perfect for us: we were able to walk everywhere. Thank you!

Convenient 2 bedroom

This 2 bedroom was perfect for our family of 3 to explore Athens -- well located and managed professionally. Our hosts quickly responded on whatsapp to questions. We especially enjoyed being nearby the Central Market and within walking distance to most sites. We arranged pickup at the airport through them and it make check in especially easy.

Great apartment, ideal location with easy access to all that Athens has to offer. There were four adults in our group and we were very comfortable with plenty of space.

Great apartment in a great area!

We had the best time staying in this place when visiting Greece!! We had never been to Greece before and were pleasantly surprised with how close this location was to all of the major historical sites and markets we wanted to visit. Great food was less than a block away, the night life was great. Inside the apartment was quiet and kept the street noise out although being in the center of it all. Our hosts were extremely responsive and helpful with suggestions of where to visit and good restaurants. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of linens. I would definitely stay here again!

Family trip to Athens

The property was as described. Very clean and plenty of space. Management communicated well and allowed early us early check-in. We were provided with clear, easy instructions as well as a map with helpful tips. Location is excellent. Guests must carry luggage up one flight of stairs and there is an elevator that can be taken the rest of the way. Would stay there again!

Clean, Comfy and Perfectly Located

We stayed at the apartment only for a night and really enjoyed our stay. Communication was excellent and prompt from Alex. Apartment was clean, comfortable and we really like the modern decor. Air conditioners in both rooms and the living room were great to cool down at the end of a hot day. Lots of food places within walking distance, as well as the train station and market by the Monastiraki Square.

Great Apartment in Convenient location! We loved this super cute space. Close to restaurants & shopping. Wonderful patio views of the Acropolis. Grocery store 3 minute walk. Air conditioning works fabulous, comfy bed's, great communication with the owners, they were extremely accommodating and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place to stay. We were here for 8 days and loved it. *Only draw back would be; not suitable for elderly, elevator starts on second floor. We were fine but my parents would not have been able to stay here.

Heart of the city

My husband and I were thrilled to stay in Athens. This location was perfect. It is a little hard to find, so it was perfect that they had someone meet us. They were easy to work with, even when we ended up getting in a day later. The only thing I would say to be aware of is that if stairs are difficult for you, this may not be the best place to stay. A single person is only accessible on floor 2 and above.

Time in Athens

Location was excellent and rooms/layout of apartment were great for my daughters and me. There was two flights of stairs to walk up prior to reaching the elevator and if you had an issues (thankfully we don’t) it could have been challenging! Grocery store was close and easy to get staples. The toaster was broken and a small leak under the sink but nothing that impacted our stay. Great value for the price. Oh, and the balcony was nice to have a different view of the street.

Perfect Athens location modern apartment - I’d stay again!

Location location location! In the heart of scenic/trendy Monastiraki. At your doorstep are cafes, restaurants, shopping, coin laundry (3 min walk), and trendy bars for the young at heart. All the top tourist spots close by: Plaka, Psyrri, central market, Syntagma, Acropolis, subway, etc. Lovely, clean, 2BR/1ba apartment with good layout, cute terrace and Acropolis view. Modern kitchen (we loved the Nespresso maker), strong A/C and hot water/pressure. We had a perfect short weekend stay and I will definitely consider staying here again on my next trip to Athens with family/friends it it’s available. Communication with Bill & John, and our contact Asteris (great recommendations!), was excellent. We opted for the airport transport they provided (driver Haris and the Benz luxury van were both amazing). We enjoyed The Zillers rooftop dining, The Clumsies, The Traditional, O Thanasis, and Bolivar Beach Bar - along with all the Athens sightseeing we could pack in. I will seek out other Bill & John properties on my travels!

Clean, modern, great location

We enjoyed our stay at the apartment. The communication, check in and check out were easy. It is a clean, modern, well done 2- bedroom, 1-bath apartment with a living room and small kitchen. The apartment was free of clutter. The pictures and description are accurate. The bedroom doors lead from the living room. The apartment was a good size for 4 people. Both bedrooms have access to the balcony with acropolis view. The bathroom was spacious with good water pressure. The mattresses were very comfortable with good linen. The portion of the street in front of the apartment is pedestrian only and it was quite at night. We walked everywhere, to the acropolis 17 min, to the Roman Agora 7 min, to the Plaka and Psyri neighborhoods. There’s lots of restaurants nearby. We enjoyed City Zen with its rooftop terrace and Acropolis view, also Lithos taverna. The apartment is in the old town where some buildings are completely renovated, while others are run down. This building was well done and safe with locks at the street entrance. Thanks for hosting us.

Centrale lokatie, schoon en leuk ingericht

Een appartement met 2 ruime slaapkamers. Erg schoon en centraal gelegen. Ingericht met leuke details die het gezellig huiselijk maken. Voldoende ingerichte keuken, je kunt er met gemak een maaltijd bereiden. De straat is een beetje vervallen, en de kerktoren slaat hard, dus wellicht niet zo geschikt voor lichte slapers. Let op: lift is op de 1e etage, en komt niet naar de begane grond. Voor ons was dit geen van beiden een probleem, dus we bevelen het van harte aan.
