The Koukaki Residence

The location was awesome— not right in the center of the madness but very close. Walkable to Acropolis, Plaka, Metro, botanical gardens, museums, etc. There was coffee and sidewalk restaurants in our neighborhood, a little off the beaten tourist path.

A great apartment to stay in with a family. That is, in case you would like to get away from the Athens tourist buzz. If you like to have action around you, opt out to Plaka region on the other side of the Acropolis. The Koukaki Residence was 10-15 minute walk away from Acropolis and many other main attractions. Parking on the street was free and we did not have troubles with finding a parking place. The host recommended to us several eating places, both for having breakfast and dinner (seafood and meat restaurants were brought out separately) that were nearby. From our apartment there was direct access through the kitchen to the inner courtyard with trees and tables. It was very cozy. A great thing was that for each apartment there was 360 degree view available and you will book an apartment with a specific name. Not some anonymous apartment. So, you could really be sure, what you will get.

Kon was fabulous- what a great way to be welcomed to Greece with his explanations of what to / not to do and a bit of advice about Greek culture thrown in!! The place was spacious and well equipped- Nespresso machine, full sized fridge, kitchen, air con, access to washing machine, sitting room and an ability to separate the two bedrooms which is great when you travel with friends and just need a little space!!! Location is more residential than the centre of the tourist areas, but it only took 10 mins to walk to the acropolis museum so you’re within easy reach of everything!! There was some great restaurants right around the corner. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

Lovely quiet apartment with peaceful courtyard garden, great location a short 10 minute walk from the acropolis and key sites

Spacious apartment with two balconies and kitchenette, strong Wifi, perfect for longer stays. The apartment offers so much more then a single hotel room. Amazing location, 12’ from the Acropolis museum and major travel agencies, 2’ from a grocery store, very good public transportation, and plenty of nice restaurants in the neighborhood. The host is super attentive for providing help via texts and email.
