The Neighborhood: Located in Gazi, the cultural heart of Athens. This is the heart of Athens nightlife, exhibitions, cultural events and festivals. Gazi is located in the Athens historical district, just 13 minutes by foot from the gates of the Acropolis. The Penthouse is located just 150 meters from the Kerameikos metro station. It is a blue line station, the best connected line in Athens, and has a direct line to the Airport and Piraeus port.
Gazi is loaded with cafes, bars, nightlife and concerts. During the day the unit is very quiet and ideal for remote work. A digital nomad's paradise, equipped with high-speed wifi, premium amenities, and smart home features. Nightlife erupts in Gazi. It's no wonder Gazi is known as the Mykonos of Athens. Guests can dance all night (and morning) with plenty of venues to choose from for all tastes.
Getting around from the Penthouse is effortless. Located just 200m from the Kerameikos metro stations, guests can easily access the best connected metro line in Athens (the Blue line). For guests that prefer to rent a car, the apartment has a private parking garage dedicated to guests. Furthermore, calling a cab is very easy in Athens.
The neighborhood is Athen's nightclub hub and it can get loud, even into the early hours of the morning. All properties in this area, and many more throughout Athens, struggle with neighborhood noise levels. Athens is a loud city and there is hardly any enforcement of noise bylaws by the city or police. Paradoxically, this energy is one of the many reasons to stay in the area.
We have done everything possible to reduce noise levels in the apartment (In 2024 we installed top of the line sound resistant triple glazed windows, we provide disposable earplugs, the apartment has doors separating all bedrooms/bathrooms which helps insulate sound). With the significant cost associated with these windows, there are hardly any (probably none) other listings in the area that offer such sound resistant windows in the bedrooms. Relatively speaking, you will be staying at one of the quietest properties in the area.
Guests should know that club noise has been an issue for some past guests. It's the only reason for any of our imperfect reviews. The area has lots of great experiences to offer and the location is incredible, but it comes with a compromise of noisy nights around the weekends.
Please take this into consideration prior to your booking. Refunds due to noise issues will not be offered since the potential noise issues are being proactively, honestly and transparently disclosed in this listing description.

We couldn’t have asked for better accommodations, including an outstanding view of the Acropolis/Parthenon from balcony . We enjoyed everything from the inside to the outside balcony and perfect jacuzzi end of day after our tours. Katerina & Jeff were attentive and helpful hosts with everything, including a helpful taxi service we made use of at arrival and to get to tours. We would definitely stay here again and recommend to all.
Definitely a 10/10. We loved this apartment and especially the view. So much fun to enjoy our meals with an amazing view of the Acropolis. Can not recommend enough!
What a beautiful penthouse with the most amazing view of the Acropolis! Definitely as advertised in all the pics and description on VRBO. Was perfect for the four of us.

Thank you so much for our wonderful review Jody! It was our pleasure hosting you and we're so pleased you enjoyed your time in Athens. Safe travels and we hope to see you again soon!
This place is incredible! We've stayed at a lot of different rentals over the years, and honestly, this is the best. Both bedrooms and bathrooms were spotless and had a luxury vibe, which we really enjoyed. The View is breathtaking and priceless! The hot tub was very nice, clean, and worked great, perfect for relaxing and enjoying that beautiful view! Jeff and Katerina are wonderful hosts, super friendly, easy to communicate with, and very quick and responsive to all messaging, which helped minimize the stresses of traveling. Hands down the best experience we’ve had, everything hit all the marks and would definitely stay again if we ever get a chance to visit Athens again!
Our stay was amazing. While we heard the music from the night clubs, it didn’t prevent us from enjoying the terrace or sleeping. Great location in Athens for all of the sights. Only minor ding is a single small ice cube tray. But seriously, if we are dinging a place over ice cube trays - that just shows how great everything was. Would definitely stay here again! Awesome experience.

This is an absolutely beautiful 2 bedroom apartment with an amazing balcony. The hot tub was pretty nice, but the star is the view of the Parthenon. From my 5 days in Athens I did not see a better view of it. The downside for this place is the location next to several nightclubs. The noise level was OK from Tuesday to Thursday, but Friday and Saturday nights were unbearable from midnight to 5am. Earplugs helped, but they don’t keep the bass vibrations out. It was rough, and neither my wife nor I got much sleep. If you plan to be out until 5am this is the place to be. The neighborhood was a bit distressed, but it was safe and there are many restaurants within walking distance. Overall, this is a 5 star place with 1 star noise level on the weekend.
Excellent view of the Acropolis from every room! Communication and check-in was excellent. Walking distance to many attractions. And definitely go to some of the restaurants recommended by the hosts!

Excellent property and communication. Just absolutely beautiful and a quick walk to the subway. Will stay again!!
Jeff & Katrina are super hosts. They really go out of their way to make sure your stay is as comfortable as possible. They even wanted to drive an hour out of their way to change one AAA battery. I would highly recommend this place.

The apartment was the PERFECT place for our family during our 4 night stay in Athens. The listing looks great... it is even better in person. All standard amenities are present (iron, hairdryer, toiletries, etc). There is also laundry which we were able to take advantage of. The beds are comfortable. There is a SmartTV and a nice Bluetooth speaker. The jacuzzi is amazing... more than once did we end our evening with a drink there while enjoying spectacular views of the Acropolis. We felt safe in the neighborhood (Gazi) and enjoyed a couple of local coffee shops (Mary's), markets (Brownie's) and restaurants (Cartone -- this one is very good). The apartment is about a 25 minute walk (or 1 metro stop) from the historic area of Athens. We did both without any trouble. We did not have any issues with any street noise (other than typical big city noise) during our stay). And perhaps the best thing about our stay were the hosts, Jeff and Katerina. They were exceptional with their communication. They provided clear instructions for accessing the property (download the app, trust me) and operation of the bells and whistles it contains (jacuzzi, fireplace, window shades, awnings). They provided some great recommendations for restaurants and things to do as well. We would stay here again without hesitation and we would recommend it to all of our friends and family as well.

Absolutely Wonderful Stay!The penthouse was beautiful, spotless, and incredibly comfortable, with a stunning view of the Acropolis. There were plenty of great food and drink options within walking distance, and the city center was just a short taxi ride away—very convenient.Jeff was fantastic to ensure everything went smoothly from check-in to check-out through clear and prompt communication.
