Great place to stay in superb location
We recently stayed at the Acropolis loft with a garden for 3 nights in October. Ioli was very welcoming and knowledgable of the area, with great recommendations near to the loft. We arrived later in the evening than was originally expected and was checked in by Ioli herself, with lots of information and no fuss!! The lot itself is so well equipped. Our son (and us) loved the Miss PacMan game and the small touches of breakfast items for our first day were so helpful. It was a perfect start to our short stay in Athens, after 3 weeks offgrid on Kythira. The location was spot on, an easy walk to the Acropolis, safe area and full of interesting shops, cafes and places to eat! We really Loved it. Thanks to Ioli for her hospitality and lovely loft for us to stay! We will definitely be back next time we are in Greece. Highly recommended!!!

Wonderful Stay in Athens!
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our 3 day stay on in this well-appointed apartment. Ioli, the host, was extremely welcoming, and excellent communicator, informed of us of all the local restaurants, events, and places to visit during our stay. The loft-style apartment had everything that we needed and more - and looks and feels as advertised. It is extremely spacious, the bed was comfortable, air conditioning worked well, and the hot shower was fantastic! The outdoor courtyard was very quiet and peaceful and made for relaxing morning lounging with our coffee. The property is conveniently located very close to Plaka and the Acropolis (10 minute walk) and many of the historical sites and museums in the city. We loved our stay and would highly recommend this apartment to couples and small families when visiting Athens.

Great stay in Koukaki
Ioli’s loft apartment is very comfortable and well placed in the city. Local streets are quieter with great coffee shops and restaurants nearby, but the apartment is only a 10 minute walk from all the busy Acropolis surrounding areas (Plaka). Ioli had some great recommendations and was very quick to respond to requests.

Athens summer stay
We had a wonderful stay in Ioli's Koukaki Luxury Loft. Some explanation about my full star rating: - location: Koukaki is not the most touristy central district in Athens but it works to it's advantage. It is very close to the main attraction in Athens (a 5 to 10 minutes walk to the Acropolis entrance and Acropolis museum) and close enough to most vibrant districts (Plaka, Psiri) which are located around the acropolis. At the same time, it is close to restaurants that I feel are more authentic than those you will find in Plaka and also cheaper. - Check in process and communication with property manager: Ioli is a great host, she was very friendly and helpful with us! The property is really spacious which was really great for our family and young children. It contrasts with some properties that are highly optimized for space and try to cram as many beds as possible. We really appreciated that aspect, especially in a busy capital city such as Athens. We really recommend this property, it really made our stay unique and memorable!

This apartment was perfect for our my husband and me and our two adult children. Walkable to Philopappos Hill and monument for an unforgettable sunset. Wonderful local cafes and restaurants nearby. Ioli provided breakfast foods for us, including juice in the refrigerator. We enjoyed the patio in the evenings and appreciated the immaculately clean lodging for our short, two night stay.

Great way to visit Athens
Location of the loft is perfect. Walking distance to everything there is to visit. Even more though, the loft itself is beautiful and very comfortable. Open and airy feeling, and tastefully decorated. Host is amazing. Personal check in, breakfast items and drinks provided. It could not have been a better experience. Will definitely stay again next time we are in Athens.

Perfectly Located, Amazing Hosts, and a Delightful Stay!**
We had the pleasure of staying at this VRBO in the heart of Athens, and it exceeded all of our expectations! The location is unbeatable, just a 20-minute walk to the Acropolis entrance, and key sites, and mere minutes away from fantastic restaurants, especially those serving to-die-for breakfasts. The hosts, Maria and Ioli, were incredibly welcoming and helpful. Maria, a history teacher, was our go-to for any questions about Greek history, enriching our stay with fascinating insights. They provided us with guidebooks, excellent recommendations, and were always responsive to our queries on WhatsApp. Former guests have left recommendations for future guests - so don't forget to leave your recommendations. The apartment itself was well-stocked - Ioli kindly provided us with fresh fruit, juices, water, and various breakfast foods and snacks. This was especially appreciated as we were tired from our travels and it allowed us to relax and recharge without needing to venture out immediately. This VRBO truly felt like a home away from home. We can't recommend it enough and will definitely be back on our next trip to Athens!

Still amazing
We booked this apartment at the beginning and end dates of our vacation. Host goes out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. We appreciated the cold water in the fridge, snacks and wine that she left for us. Parking is easy as they reserve a spot in front of the apartments for guests. Great location and very secure building. There's an amazing farmer's right by the house on Fridays. Easy walk to the Plakka and Acropolis.

About the host

Your host

Host profile image
My name is Ioli and I would like to welcome you to Athens “the city that never sleeps’. I was born and raised in the charming Koukaki area of Athens, but I’ve also lived in London and Paris. I currently reside at the upper floors of the same building as the Acropolis Koukaki Loft, so I will be more than happy to assist you in any way I can, anytime. I always enjoy meeting new people from different countries and I am looking forward to provide you with any information you might need. If you have any inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Why they chose this property

The Acropolis Koukaki loft is located at 46 Zacharitsa st. at the picturesque Koukaki area just below the Acropolis. Make a plan to visit one of the city’s fine museums like the Acropolis Museum, the National Museum of Contemporary Art , the Lalaounis Jewelry Museum which can be reached on foot. The Parthenon, Pnyx, Odeum of Herodes Atticus, Plaka –the village-like part of Athens, Monastiraki, Thissio ,Filopappos Hill, are also within a walking distance from the loft. The area is well connected by metro (Syggrou-Fix metro station is just 400m away) , trolley buses, buses, trams-which can take you to the lovely Athenian beaches as well as taxis which can take you everywhere at very affordable prices. Guests will find a variety of restaurants, bars and shops (supermarkets, pharmacies, ATMs etc) within a 2 min walk from the loft.
According to VOGUE magazine “…alluring spontaneity is especially felt in Koukaki and Makriyianni, the verdant, pedestrian-friendly adjoining neighborhoods just below the Acropolis. Despite the presence of this visitor-clogged landmark that surreally pops out in the midst of an urban landscape, and several museums, they remain remarkably hushed, inviting wandering and lingering.”

What makes this property unique

Its unique benefits are its unique architecture, its beautiful, quiet garden where guests can have their breakfast or enjoy a drink after a long walk and an arcade pac-man game where children as well as grown ups can spend their free time.
