Arrival and Check-in/out

Our building is located in the heart of the historic center and it’s easily accessible by car or public transportation. Find extensive information about getting here on our LOCATION page.

The regular check-in time is at 3pm and check-out time at 11am. Based on the departure time of the previous guest it’s common to be able to offer you an early check-in. Same way with your check-out. If next guests arrive relatively late we can extend your departure up to 1 or 2pm. None of these have an extra charge for you.

We’ll be in touch before your arrival and during your stay to clarify the availability.

When you book with us we’ll contact you via e-mail providing with a link to an online form, asking for more information about your arrival and departure. In this form for you’ll be able to select from two different types of check-in

  • SELF check-in (free of charge) We’ll provide you with simple but extensive instructions on how to reach the apartment and use your entrance codes to enter it. It’s working seamlessly the past 5 years of our operation and is selected by the majority of our guests! 95%
  • HOST check-in (Costs €40,-) One of us will meet you at your apartment. We’ll help you enter, explain how things work, answer all your questions and give you valuable advice about the city and your trip.
Check-out is as simple as “take your personal belongings and have a safe travel!”
If you feel like it, please wash your dishes before departure and if you feel comfortable take your trash to the big bin at the basement of the building.
When you close the door of your suite please turn the elextronic door know around to show the “CHECK-OUT” tag

We do! We will arrange any kind of private transportation for you with one of our trusted drivers.

When you book with us we’ll contact you via e-mail providing with a link to an online form, asking for more information about your arrival and departure. In this for you’ll be able to request an arrival pick-up or an departure drop-off.

During your stay you may also request any kind of transportation you need.

In general, we strongly suggest to let us arrange your transportation instead of picking taxis on the street. Unfortunately we have had several complaints from visitors that picked a random taxi (charged much more than usual, not driving directly to destination or even not reaching destination).

Alternatively you may use the App “Free Now” that is like Uber but with taxis. That also works well.

Location and accessibility

Totally! It’s probably the safest street in Athens as the Greek Archbishop lives almost next door and he has 24/7 security walking around.

Not at all. Even though the building is locate in Plaka, close to the commercial street of Adrianou, it’s “hidden” in a small unpopular pedestrian, making it very quiet. Our guests praise the tranquility of the place in their reviews. In the past 5 years of our operation we might have had only 5 complaints in total of guests hearing noise from the street during the night.

Yes, two of them

There are also a couple of smaller markets with organic food

All of our apartments are located super-central and within walking distance from all the major attractions of the city. You won’t need to take any transportation.

From April to October the main sites are open from 8am until sunset. We can provide more inform you in detail at your check in. The shops are open on Monday and Wednesday from 9am to 3pm. On Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 9am to 2pm and from 5.30pm to 9pm. Most of the commercial shops on Ermou street open from 9am to 5pm. The big shopping malls open from 9am to 9pm on weekdays and from 9am to 8pm on Saturdays. Sundays closed.

If you’re planning to also go to the islands or you’re coming to Athens after visiting a Greek island then we’d suggest staying central. Nothing can compare to the Greek Islands seaside!

In any case, the easiest way to reach the coast line of Athens is to take the tram from Syntagma square with direction towards Voula terminal station.
