Area
Forget polished postcards—Metaxourgeio is where Athens keeps it real. Gritty, artistic, and constantly evolving, this neighbourhood is where old meets new in the most unexpected ways. Think neoclassical buildings covered in bold street art, indie galleries tucked between timeworn cafés, and an underground bar scene that keeps the city buzzing long after sunset.
Staying on Myllerou 72, you’re right in the mix of it all. Some of Athens’ top spots are just a short stroll away:
Omonia Square – 900m (11 min walk)
Monastiraki & the Flea Market – 1.4km (18 min walk)
Syntagma Square – 2km (25 min walk)
Acropolis & Parthenon – 2.2km (28 min walk)
Psyrri’s nightlife & tavernas – 1.3km (17 min walk)
By day, grab a specialty coffee at a minimalist café, browse through vintage shops, or set up your laptop in a co-working-friendly space filled with fellow nomads. By night, the scene flips—think experimental cocktail bars, alternative music venues, and authentic tavernas where the raki flows freely.
This isn’t your typical touristy Athens. Metaxourgeio is raw, creative, and endlessly exciting—the kind of place where you come for the vibes and end up staying for the stories.
