    Stunning apartment in the heart of the city, yet located in a very quiet and charming neighborhood. The terrace offers a beautiful view of the sea, and it’s just a short walk to the Hill of the Nymphs, where you can admire the Acropolis both day...

    I chose this location so I could be in a slightly quieter neighbourhood, easily park my car, but still be a 10 minute walk from restaurants and tourist areas. I enjoyed being able to walk through the park to view the Acropolis in the morning and...

One of the best two bedroom stone house built by Queen Frederica in 1956 located in the heart of Athens’ historical center within a walking distance from Acropolis. It is on the first floor and is fully renovated without losing the sense of old beauty. The stone walls, the royal beds and sofa beside the carved wooden armchairs are mixed with lighting outfits,modern paintings and colors offering an unforgettable scenery with vibes of royalty.
Frederica’s Stone houses (Petrina), is a “quite old village” full of blooming gardens in the centre of Athens, just a few minutes away from Acropolis Hill. The neighborhood is located next to the Filopapou Hill, a favorite destination for strolls among lemon trees and blooming gardens. Kallisthenous street is considered the main road of Petrina that connects Filopapou with Acropolis Hill (Thiseio) where through Dionysiou Aeropagitou str, visitors can head southern to Plaka and Acropolis museum or northern to Monastiraki and Psiri. Historically, the area was first inhabited after the Greco-Turkish War (1922), when the greek refugees from Asia Minor arrived. Until 1961, it was the most deprived districts of Athens. The fire of 1944 that destroyed some of the houses, initiated the Queen Frederica to use the stones from the area to build stone houses which were offered to the population in 1956. Since then, the stone houses turned into such landmarks and the neighborhood was slowly integrated into the today area known as “Petrina”. The popular cafés and taverns that have opened make the area one of the most beautiful districts just few steps from Thiseio and Acropolis Hill.
