Hotels in Plaka, Athens
Plaka is Athens at its most photogenic — a neighbourhood of neoclassical houses, bougainvillea-draped balconies and car-free lanes climbing directly to the rock of the Acropolis. The Roman Agora, the Tower of the Winds and the Temple of Olympian Zeus are on foot; the Acropolis itself and the superb Acropolis Museum are within easy walking distance. Some restaurant strips are touristy and overpriced — choose the quieter streets behind the main lanes — but the setting is extraordinary. It suits first-time visitors and anyone who wants to stay as close to ancient Athens as the modern city allows.
178 hotels within walking distance of Plaka, in the heart of Athens, including 100 properties rated 4 stars or higher. The closest is A77 Suites, Small Luxury Hotels of the World, about 204m from the centre of the neighbourhood.
