    The chairs and seats are very beautiful (as is the rest of the apartment), but not really relaxing seats. Fortunately, there are so many things to do and visit in Athens that you we did not spend enough time in the apartment to be bothered by this :-)

    The location was excellent. Very close to the Syntagma square, so almost everything you need to visit in Athens was within walking distance. An excellent department store for (fresh) food and beverages is around the corner. Dimitris -the host- is one of the nicest and most helpful persons we have ever met.

    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.

    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.

    No real shower; handheld wand and tub. Hey, it’s vintage, not modern. Plenty of hot water, good AC.

    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 you 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 store, coffee/ chocolate shop, and restaurants within 50-100 steps. Only about 2 stair steps at two points from 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.

    The big bathroom is great with a bathtub and WC. The second toilet is only for WC. No showering to avoid flooding.

    Very clean and spacious apartment and we loved the dining room! Lots of vintage furniture and magnificent paintings. Well equipped kitchen and good range of toiletries to use.

    No complaints

    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.

    I loved the atmosphere present in the apartment. Check in was quick and easy. The owner of the property was very friendly and welcoming. The building was situated in an excellent location, within a walking distance to the city, fancy restaurants and all the interesting places. The bedroom was outstanding, very spacious and quiet. I had everything I needed to enjoy my stay. The kitchen was well equipped, the bathroom was very clean and tidy. Will definitely stay again. Σας ευχαριστώ

    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.

    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.

    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!

    I saw it as a shared accommodation of the owner, who left us his apartment, where there were many, but really very many things.

    Great location, friendly owner, authentic accommodation in the Athenian house.
