Studio Μαρασλή, 45 106 76 Αθήνα, Kolonaki, Kolonaki - Lykavittos

This one room micro apartment is located on the ground floor of a Bauhaus-style building in Kolonaki district of Central Athens - very close to Gennadius Library, the American School of Classical Studies and the British School at Athens. A 10 minute walk to Syntagma (Parliament Sq), it is a perfect Pied a Terre in Central Athens either for your visit to Athens or for longer stays. The space is luxuriously renovated and features an elegant bathroom with a glass shower cabin, a brand new double bed (140x200cm) and mattress, a natural cooling ceiling fan, an autonomous heating system, a washing machine, a refrigerator, a boiler, a microwave, a portable induction hob, as well as free WiFi and a small collection of books about Athens and Greece. The apartment’s building (a polykatoikia built in 1935) bears the traits of the “Greek modern architectural movement” which marked interbellum Athens and especially Kolonaki district, historically Athens' most upscale residential neighborhood. Its location is also part of the city’s cinematic history since it has been the setting where one of Michael Cacoyannis first film, Windfall in Athens key scenes took place in 1954. The area is a very safe district and a short walking distance to Plaka, Acropolis and downtown. Residents include many expats (embassies stuff, visiting academics, foreign press etc). Evangelismos metro station is a mere 2 minutes walk away. There are high quality restaurants (Filippou Restaurant which specializes in traditional Athenian cuisine is just next door), supermarkets, grocery stores, pharmacies and banks right on your doorstep while in 10 minutes walk you can enjoy a visit to the Lycabettus hill which is the highest hill of the city and offers its best view
