Overview
Vintage Apartment Kolonaki is an apartment of 163 sqm (1755 sqft) on the fourth floor of a residential building of six floors, that was built in the late fifties. I kept all the vintages of that decade trying to keep the atmosphere and the taste of those good old days. The apartment consists of a master bedroom with two beds another bedroom with two bunk beds and a third smaller bedroom with a bunk bed and an office.
Total beds five. Apart from the above, there is a fully equipped kitchen, a dining room a sitting room, and a separate office. Not to mention the main bathroom and an extra WC with a sink and a toilet (not a shower).
Literally, next door to the apartment there is a supermarket (SKLAVENITIS) a multi-store building with a cafe, a restaurant on the last floor (HONDOS CENTER), and a hairdresser opposite to it. All to start your day with.
The Kolonaki area will offer the best shops in the city for ladies, and men. Also, it should be mentioned the wide range of trendy cafes, restaurants, and galleries. Last but not least I must mention two unique museums that are the heart of Kolonaki. It is the Benaki Museum, just opposite to National Garden and the
Presidential Guard, with interesting elements from ancient to modern Greece as per history and art.
Cycladic Museum with the amazing idols from the pre-historic ages from the Cyclades islands is a place not to miss. Enjoy your stay in Athens.

10 Gary, gb Reservation Number 4200288648 Oct 20, 2023 Basic categories Staff 10 Cleanliness 10 Location 10 Facilities 10 Comfort 10 Value for money 10 Quiet location in central location We were looking for a quiet location in a good location in a city (usually impossible!!) but this apartment was perfect. The apartment was also huge! We visited in October when the weather was about 27C but the apartment would be ideal in warmer months as it was cool. The host met us on arrival which was great, and the complimentary fruit on arrival was perfect. It was all great but no shower. I knew this at time of booking and it didn’t bother us as we took the chance to have relaxing baths but, for some, a shower may be preferable. Dear Gary, thanks for your comments. I am fully aware that there are still many things to be improved in the apartment. This is an endless procedure and yet so many people that they appreciate hospitality and the apartment itself. Personally, I take my shower in the big bathroom. Thanks again for all. Very best regards, Dimitris.
Airbnb 5 Δημόσια κριτική Beautiful classical / vintage style apartment in central location with everything I needed to feel at home. The host and his family are THE NICEST and the place has quality amenities making it a very convenient stay for short or long term. Everything was clean, comfortable, and quiet - especially considering the location. I look forward to staying here again in the future - thank you for making my visit to Athens extra special :)

Dimitris is a wonderful host and a fount of knowledge on many subjects. As a retired engineer he understands essentials and can help you with travel questions. He will engage with you at your preference and leave you to your privacy for the balance. Can’t beat the neighborhood; Kolonaki is full of upscale fashion shops, with supermarket, department stores, coffee/ chocolate shops, and restaurants within 50-100 steps. Only about 2 stair steps at two points from the street, important to those of us with mobility challenges. Access to his apartment by elevator. You can cook or wash clothes here. Twin beds comfortable. You can hunker down or go out— your choice. No real shower; handheld wand and tub. Hey, it’s vintage, not modern. Plenty of hot water, good AC. Dear Jack thank you very much for your review. I will take into consideration your comments about the shower and improve a few things. Thanks again for all.

A good description of - Vintage apartment Kolonaki - is in the name itself. Half a century ago, perhaps you could expecte to catch a glimse of Nana Mouskouri, Aristotle Onassis and/or other promenet figures and celebrities from Greece going about their business in the neibourhood. Large rooms with high ceilings, a number of bathrooms, marble entry, heavy and solid doors and dark wood floors. This place was probably top of the line when built, to some degree, because of location. Still in the same catagory. In "my" room there is a button that can be pressed. Historically to call whoever was on duty in the apartment; the maid, butler, chauffeur... your guess is as good as mine. Personally I am very happy to have choosen Vintage apartments Kolonaki for three nights. I should have stayed a month. The combination of price, location, the apartment itself, and last but not least the friendly and accommodating owner/host Dimitri all come together to make my rating a 10. No complaints Thank you. Most obliged.

10 Rahul, lu Reservation Number 2216375946 Sep 17, 2021 Basic categories Staff 10 Cleanliness 10 Location 10 Facilities 10 Comfort 10 Value for money 10 This place is a very special place to stay, not at all like a Normal apartment or Hotel room. This is amongst the BEST location, its right in the City Center. Close enough to crowded Monastiraki, but not too close (1 KM 1 Metro station), which is perfect. Close to all amenities. Also the star of property apart from the location is also the Vintage-ness of the home. When we walked in I was surprised how well our HOST has maintained the multigenerational property. The HOST was very generous to wait for us and to explain us about the house even late in the night. We could not have had a better place to live especially at that location and that price. We Liked everything. Oh maybe we were a bit worried that our 6 Yr old night damage the intricate, vintage art and show pieces. Thank fully that did not happen. Thank you very much for your comments. The credits belong to those who can appreciate all the above. All you have to do is to help us improving and offering the service of this standard and price. Best regards and thanks again.

That place is amazing! A huge apartment for your own, fully equipped (much better than some hotels!). Old style, luxurious furniture everywhere, we felt there like in the palace. Very clean and cozy, air-condition worked great during extremely hot days. The owner is very nice and cheerful, has perfect communication and took care of us all the time and treated us with a very nice surprise. The place is in a calm and quiet area, just a few minutes from Syntagma square. The best experience that we have ever had, worth much more than any hotel! Dear Filip and friends, thank you for your review. Most obliged. Still trying to improve things. Next time we will be even better. You were also excellent guests. Looking forward to seeing you again sometime, on your way to some Greek islands. Thanks again for all.

Hello, my name is Dimitris. I am the landlord, a land surveyor, a real estate agent, and a host of a 163 sqm (1754 sqft) apartment in the Kolonaki area. The Mayfair of Athens. I kept the vintages of the apartment to remind me of the old good days of the early sixties when I started having my first memories and experiences. The apartment is a two-minute walk from the Parliament, the National Garden, the Prime Minister's Office (Maximus), and next to it the Presidential Palace. Not to mention the same block as the French embassy and round the corner the Italian embassy. A little further on toward Hilton, you can view the British and German embassies. Kolonaki area with top-quality shops, restaurants, cafes and galleries. Last but not least mention two museums Benaki (modern Greek history and art) and Cycladic museum with the amazing prehistoric idols.
