Athens Apartments
Many holiday flats are located near Plaka , an historic center of Athens. This section of the city is popular with tourists and easy to find, especially with the Athens Metropolitan Cathedral as a landmark. While this area is often crowded with tourists, there is a certain charm to the neighbourhood. The buildings and tavernas that line the maze of streets are picturesque, and the street performers and the music that wafts through the air lend a magical quality to the area. And there a plenty of museums and Byzantine churches in Plaka to give you much to see.
If you venture a bit further from
Plaka , you will find the less well-known section of Athens called
Monastiraki . As it is much less crowded than
Plaka , this is a good place to stay if you want a quieter holiday flat.
Monastiraki is known for its small shops, good
tavernas and its daily flea market. Make sure to wander down
Adrianou Street and dine in one of its very good restaurants. A new attraction in this area is the newly uncovered
Eridanos river bed which can be viewed under its protective glass.
If you want a more local, decidedly upper-class experience, book a holiday flat in
Kolonaki . In this neighbourhood, you will find socialites on their way to their mansions, and the staff members of the embassies travelling between work and home.
Kolonaki is one of the most prestigious neighbourhoods in Athens. There are very high-end boutiques, fashionable bars and restaurants and exclusive galleries. If you stay in this section, you will be in the middle of many archeological sites as well as a vibrant nightlife. And you will be close to many museums including the
Benaki Museum and the
Goulandris Museum of Cycladic Art. In short, you will find everything that you need in
Kolonaki and more!
Wherever you rent your Athens apartment, you will find warmth, charm and history. You will be totally engulfed in the culture, and you will create many memories to take home with you.
