Downtown Cocoon with Roof Deck

This apartment is a heartbeat away from Acropolis, at the famous and historic area of Plaka!

NEWS: Unfortunately, our air conditioning broke down and for this reason, for a few days, until about 10/8/23, we will have fans in the apartment until the damage is repaired.

Located in a very strategy place, in Plake, you can be anywhere in 5 minutes by foot! We re-design the interior with brand new floor and some cool features (Jan. 2023)

It has a double spacious bed next to a fully equipped kitchen. A flat TV and two comfortable armchairs. There is a wonderful roof deck where you can enjoy your breakfast or your evenings just under the Acropolis.

The whole apartment is fully air conditioned while there is also a boiler to provide you with hot water for 24/7. For the winter there is the option for heating with natural gas with extra cost .

Of course the beds are already made-up, with fresh ironed sheets from top quality. Furthermore there are clean towels for every single of you.

Entire property has free Wi-Fi!

Acropolis is the closest Metro station

Smoking is only allowed in the balcony

Common quiet hours 11:00 p.m. – 07:00 a.m., 3:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.

For late check in after 00:00 there is a small fee

Transfer service and private tours are available upon request

How can i help you to get the most out of your stay?

Feel free to ask me anything!

Perfect location

This is the second time I’ve stayed at this property and I will definitely return again. Everything about the process is very smooth and easy from airport. Pick up to drop off. The location is great because you can step out the front door to a variety of shops and cafés. It is walking distance to most of the monuments in the old city. Thank you!

Plaka Dream

Our stay in the downtown Cocoon with roof deck was incredible. The location was located in central Plaka next to a garden plaza & surrounded by a wonderful restaurants & plenty of shops. The area was clean & we felt safe walking around both day & night. The residence had a wonderful roof top deck which came in handy when we needed a little down time for coffee or a glass of wine. The unit is situated close to all large number of tourist sites & most everything was within walking distance. George was an incredible host & in addition to a seamless occupancy & stay he made all our transfer arrangements which could be tricky @ times. I would highly recommend this unit to anyone.

AMAZING

This property couldn't be better. The view from the private rooftop deck cannot be overstated. When you leave the property, you're immediately in the middle of amazing restaurants, shopping, and historical landmarks. Our only regret is that we were only able to stay one night. We are already planning a longer stay for next year.

Fantastic location and great communication with our host. He allowed us to check out an hour later to coordinate our cruise departure which was a bonus. Only minor comment is it would be nice to have washcloths as we onky had regular towels and hand towels....other than that would definitely stay again

Delightful Plaka stay

We loved this studio flat in Plaka. It was located right in the middle of things so it was an easy walk to the Acropolis, Monastikiri, and the centre. The flat was small but very comfortable with a comfortable bed, well appointed bathroom, and kitchenette. Best of all it had a large rooftop patio with views of the Acropolis. Would happily use this as our base for future stays.

We loved it

The location on Plaka was wonderful. Food and shops everywhere. With such a central location it was quite quiet above all the activity. The host was wonderful, attentive in all the months up to arrival. He arranged airport transfer coming in which was so appreciated and needed! It's on the 4th floor but you can take an elevator from floor 2. The rooftop bar and restaurant you can see from the roof is worth a visit!

Athens trip

This property was in a perfect location for touring many areas in Athens. Every morning we enjoyed coffee on the roof top deck looking at the Acropolis. The apartment was easy to enter and we felt very safe there. The restaurants nearby were very good and the people very friendly. We could walk many of the places that we wanted to go. It was an excellent choice especially for two Americans who had no idea about where to stay in Athens!

Lovely stay in a great neighborhood

The apartment was just right. Well decorated, comfortable, fresh and in the best spot. Stepping out the door in the morning was a joy as we stepped into the busy friendly neighborhood complete with fun restaurants, bars and shops. George and company were so responsive to our questions and needs - so important as it was our first time in Greece. We walked everywhere we wanted to go - perfect location! Would highly recommend!

Perfect Spot

We really loved this little apartment, position was perfect, the building is very nice and roof top terrace is spectacular. It has a small kitchenette which has lots of bits and pieces but not really suitable for cooking. The only downside was the linen and pillows which were not up to standard.

Plaka

This apartment was within walking distance to a lot of really nice restaurants. Walking distance to the Acropolis. We loved that we were able to walk everyway. The owner arranged a car pickup/dropoff at the airport, which was very convenient because parking in the area was very difficult.
