The area:

This charming apartment sits at the base of historic Lycabettus Hill, the highest point in Athens. We highly recommend a visit to the summit, either via a steep climb or on the cable car (funicular), to enjoy the unforgettable views of Athens! You'll find a restaurant/cafe and a church at the summit.



East of the apartment, on the other side of the Mount, is Kolonaki. This upscale district is highly sought-after by Athenians and tourists. Most cultural sites are within an easy 20 - 30 minute walk of the apartment.



A great way to see Athens is on foot with leisurely strolls. Be sure to enjoy Kolonaki's scenic streets and broad sidewalks. Kolonaki has many upscale residences, boutiques, cafes, and world-class restaurants. There are also upscale businesses tucked discreetly into the classically-styled buildings.

Other Things to Note:
We would like to inform you about an important regulation mandated by the Greek government. From April to October, all guests are required by law to pay an Environmental Fee. This fee cannot be included in the booking price and must be collected separately before arrival, as stipulated by the Greek authorities.

The fee is:

€8 per night for apartments

€15 per night for villas

Please note:

This amount is not a charge from us, and we do not profit from it in any way.

Once we collect this fee, we pay it in full directly to the government as a tax.

Unfortunately, we are not allowed to waive, reduce, or absorb this fee, no matter the circumstances.

Payment is required before check-in, as per Greek law.

We completely understand this might be frustrating, and we sincerely wish we could make it easier for you. However, we are legally obligated to comply, and without this payment, check-in is not permitted.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Should you have any questions or need assistance with the payment process, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Warm regards.
