Phos, an eclectic suite with stunning Acropolis view.<br>

Welcome to Phos, our exquisite suite in the heart of Plaka, the most picturesque area in Athens' centre, offering an unparalleled view of the majestic Acropolis. Located in a prime location, our suite combines luxury, comfort, and the enchanting beauty of ancient Greece.

The Name: To the Ancient Greeks, Phos (Φῶς) was “a pure, brilliant quality of light, signifying a break in the darkness, a triumph of truth and knowledge over ignorance”. The luminosity and unique beauty of Greek light have captured the imagination of poets, Lord Byron, Odysseus Elytis, and Constantine Cavafy to name a few. Phos is the epitome of creation and beauty, in Plaka, the centre of light in our city, Athens.


Our spacious suite features modern design with traditional touches, providing a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The highlight of the suite is the private patio, where you can relax and admire the breathtaking panorama of the Parthenon. Whether you’re sprawled out on the sofa in the living room or lying down in the bedroom, the Acropolis is never out of sight. Imagine sipping your morning coffee or enjoying a glass of wine while soaking in the historic sights!
The suite includes a plush queen-sized bed, a well-equipped kitchenette, a cosy sitting area, and a private bathroom with all necessary amenities. The decor showcases a blend of contemporary elegance and nods to Athens' rich history, creating a unique and memorable experience.

Location: Our suite is nestled in Plaka, in the heart of Athens, just a short walk away from major attractions such as the Acropolis, the Acropolis Museum, and the historic Monastiraki Square. You'll find an array of charming cafes, vibrant restaurants, and local shops nearby, allowing you to immerse yourself in the vibrant culture of the city.
Despite being just a breath away from the bustling centre, the suite remains peacefully quiet, so you can escape the lively city pulse to find solace in this peaceful sanctuary any time you choose to!
Kindly note that the suite is located on the 4th floor, accessible by an elevator.

Wonderful!

Husband and I stayed here for 3 nights before our cruise. Amazing location. Close to all the main attractions….everything walkable. We loved sitting on the balcony in the evening and morning. The view was amazing. Apartment, though small, had everything we needed. Loved the convenience of having a washer. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect location with an incredible view

Phos house provides its guest with a modern apartment with incredible views and a most convenient location close to major activities and numerous restaurants. The furnishings were near new and kitchen was well stocked with high quality items. This will be my first choice of a place to book when returning to Athens.

Beautifully and centrally located near the old city. Everything we wanted to go to was in walking distance. The condo is beautifully designed and well stocked. The living quarters are immaculate, the space well thought out, with everything we needed provided for us. The crown jewel of the place is its outstanding view, from our deck, of the Acropolis both day and night. Can’t wait to revisit.

SO FABULOUS!!

Unfortunately, we were only able to stay two nights at Eva‘s flat. It was seamless, from pre-arrival communication until the minute we left. The interior was chic and semi-modern and incredibly clean. The bed, pillows and linens were fabulous. Tall ceilings and plenty of space for the two of us, with wonderful balconies for viewing the Acropolis day or night. The location was fantastic for shopping, dining, and strolling through Plaka and the various surrounding neighborhoods. We hope to return some time and recommend booking in advance, as I know it is popular. We have stayed in many VRBO homes and apartments and this was top-notch. Thank you Eva and Kris (the lovely woman who cleans and sets up between guests- could not have been nicer).

Absolutely Perfect!

We couldn’t have stayed at a nicer place. The location is fantastic, Eva, the host took care of our every need, which included helping us with airport transfer and luggage storage. However, what was the biggest treat was the design of the apartment itself. Every attention was taken to detail, storage and aesthetic efficiency. We felt as if we had our own private 5 star suite. I could go on and on about what was provided to enhance our comforts - coffee (including milk frother for cappuccino), luxury soaps, shampoo, lotion, candles, guide books, quality linens, complimentary aperitif… Lastly, the experience of sitting on your private balcony and gazing at the Acropolis is beyond magical. Suffice it to say, we will be back!

Perfect

Apartment was perfect for 2 people. Gorgeous view of Acropolis. Very close to Acropolis museum, and most major attractions are walkable within 15-20 minutes. Lots of restaurants and vibe catering to tourists. The unit was impeccable and the host was very thoughtful in providing a great experience. Flawlessly clean, fluffy towels, coffee, toiletries, laundry soap. Small but functional kitchen. Very clean bathroom. Lots of storage, extra pillows, voltage adapters. Could use a comfy chair in TV area to complement couch. AC was very cool. Quiet neighbourhood. Open concept studio but pictures do reflect the accommodations. Appreciated the elevator. We only had one question and host answered in under 10 minutes. We used the taxi recommendation and this was also a great experience. One of our best rentals.

Lovely Apartment close to everything in Athens

Awesome view. Small apartment with everything. Just fabulous. Only issue is communication. Hate relying on VRBO messaging, it has been 6 days and VRBO app on Iphone has error. Travel a lot, hate it when host rely on single platform to communicate. Totally ridiculous, they do not want to communicate via Whatsapp (The singular most useful and reliable communication). Arrive, VRBO hangs..can not find the floor to meet. Fortunately did not need to contact host as VRBO app did not work. Tried to review and app not working for 5 days. Able to do review on macpro laptop platform.... iphone add still not working. I do no like host who rely on one platform to communicate. Makes it difficult.
