A Wonderful Four Nights in Athens

This apartment is gorgeous- and worth every penny if only for the insane views of the Acropolis and historic sites from every angle - even from the shower. Francis was an attentive host and the location of the apartment makes walking to many of the museums, bars and restaurants so easy. We can’t recommend this apartment highly enough! We’ll be back!

Our stay at The One & Only Acropolis Penthouse was absolutely incredible. The convenience of its location made exploring the city of breeze, and we particularly cherished the breathtaking view of the Acropolis. Each morning, we would wake up to the Majestic site and in the evenings, enjoy the enchanting beauty as we say good night to this ancient wonder. The ambience of the penthouse was wonderfully relaxed, providing the perfect location for our vacation. Every moment spent there was filled with joy and tranquility. Our host, Francis was exceptional-always willing to accommodate our needs and incredibly prompt he his responses making our day even more enjoyable. We wholeheartedly recommend this gem of a place to anyone looking to experience the magic of Athens. Our time there was truly unforgettable and we cannot wait to return.. Five stars!

Beautiful View of Acropolis and Great Neighborhood

This apartment is truly amazing. From the back terrace we watched the sunset...then went inside to watch the lights turn on at the Acropolis and surrounding area. Beautiful views from all windows. The apartment is walking distance from many attractions. A nice surprise was the close by lively Psirri area with lots of restaurants. The washing machine was nice to have! The apartment was also very clean and comfortable.

Better than advertised!

We enjoyed our 3 day stay, in The 1 and only Acropolis penthouse! Everything about the unit was great, it was clean, well equipped and had the best view of the Acropolis. The location could not have been better, and was easy walking distance to attractions, dining, shopping and nightlife. Francis was an excellent host and communicated all the details I needed to know. I did contact him while in Athens and he picked up phone and answered my question right away. I would recommend and stay there again myself should I ever be back in Athens.

As if you are in your own house with a stunning view!!

Clean, cosy, warm, excellent for business or personal use. Full of facilities inside as if it is your own house. Nothing is missing. The best view ever to the Acropolis monuments! In this apartment you feel proud to be Greek...and this is a good feeling especially these days when everything collapses for most greeks. And above all a detailed, helpful, polite and knowledgeable owner who can inform you about food, etc in the best way.

great property. the views are as advertised--stunning. you won't find better. the location is extremely well located to everything. we were provided an unbelievably delicious bottle of wine at check-in. francis helped arrange excellently chauffeured transfers to and from the airport. do not take the metro, take the mercedes. it costs the same. it it's your first time in athens, absolutely nothing will beat the view of the acropolis right out your window as you wake up to breakfast or go down for the night. absolutely value for your money.
