The Ark Athens

Newly renovated with modern style furniture. Great toilet/shower, flat comes with a private terrace and a shared terrace upstairs with modest views to the Acrópolis.

We were handed a wrong code for the appartment and that's a big issue when you arrive past midnight. Gladly I had a phone number that I got from Google maps ( where I'd asked days before if it was possible to donate check-in), otherwise 2 other phone numbers provided answered too late. The issue was resolved in 15minutes. Much better attention needs to be paid when you don't have people on site to take care of this. Then same small details.. it's a classic rental type of flat. Somehow it's got no proper chairs but some really not comfy stools. Basic kitchen, and a few of things that don't make sense. No lamps next to the bed, only one side of the bed has a tiny table and plug.

The location and facilities including rooftop

Showers leaking under doors

Stylish, comfortable, great amenities.

I wish there were some coffee pods (not decaf).

The property is very conveniently located to all key sites. Acropolis, Hadrians arch, temple of Zeus, plaka. Didn’t need to do the hop on hop off. We just walked everywhere. The place was secure, safe. The mgr who was locally present was absolutely fantastic and helpful

1. We were 2 adults and a child. The place was tight for the 3 of us. Thankfully we didn’t spend much time inside. 2. We stayed for 10 days. On avg the stay here is 3. So the current policy is ‘clean on check out’. This needs to be amended for long stays given the restricted space and bins (kitchen and loo) get filled up quick. Especially since you cldnt flush toilet paper 3. Cupboard space was restricted. So 2 people lived out of the suitcase for 10days. Taking more space 4. There was no tea/milk. Only coffee, sugar and 2 bottles of water.
