Αthens flat. At the heart of Syntagma square.

Well appointed, fully air-conditioned 145m2 apartment, accommodating up to seven people. It is located near Syntagma Square and Plaka, only 250m from the nearest METRO Station, within walking distance of most sightseeing and archaeological sites. The flat is located on the third floor of a Classic pre-World War II building. Behind its heavy iron door, the building's entrance is decorated with colorful orange, black, white and yellow marble tile, a reflection of its glorious past though somewhat worn from constant and intensive use. The white marble stairway is wide indeed and the old mechanical elevator has been replaced by a modern, much safer hydraulic one. As to the flat, it has been fully renovated while extra care was given to keeping and highlighting the characteristic atmosphere and features of the era. High ceilings with classical decorations, wooden floors and bright colors combined with antique or collectible furnishings to create a relaxing and luxurious atmosphere that will make you feel immediately at home. That relaxing atmosphere is further enhanced when you come out to enjoy a cup of tea or glass of wine on the flat's tiny balcony garden, overlooking an elegant 1910 building standing right across the street. The flat accommodates two (2) adults in the main bedroom with a double bed sized 1.60x2.00m and three more in the second bedroom with single beds sized 0.90x2.00. If so required, two more adults can be comfortably accommodated in the privacy of the study which holds a convertible sofa of near double bed size 1.40x2.00m. Normal amenities such as fluffy white cotton towels, freshly ironed bed sheets, shower gel and shampoo are provided for everyone. All rooms are air conditioned. Hot water is provided by a central gas system which also provides for the heating of the flat.
