WebHotelier B2B Test 'Under the Stars' Accommodation

Under the Stars sits within easy reach of the Acropolis, where the Parthenon and Erechtheion crown the hill above the city. From here it is a short walk into Plaka, the old quarter of narrow lanes, small cafes and shops that has kept its character despite the traffic of the modern capital surrounding it. Syntagma Square and the pedestrian stretch of Ermou Street are close as well, useful for anyone who wants shopping without needing a car.

The property itself is designed for rest after a day of sightseeing. An external jacuzzi and a working fireplace anticipate both the heat of an Athens afternoon and the cooler hours after sunset. A bottle of wine is left for arrival, and slippers and a hairdryer are provided for the kind of stay where nothing needs to be packed twice. A writing desk suits guests catching up on notes or postcards, and an ADSL connection covers anyone who still needs to work.

Pangrati's Panathenaic Stadium, built in antiquity and revived for the first modern Olympics in 1896, is another easy outing from this part of the city, adding a second landmark to the day without much extra travel.
