Airbnb offers a wide variety of accommodation around the world
Founded in 2008, in Greece this phenomenon has been flourishing in recent years at a rapidly evolving pace. Specifically, in Athens, you have the option to rent many apartments located near the historic center of the city and also in the surrounding areas. Airbnb properties extend throughout Athens, with the most popular areas being: Plaka, Exarchia, Koukaki, Pagrati, Ampelokipi, the Acropolis and Thissio.
Nevertheless, every corner of Athens hides its own beauty, and there are many customers looking for accommodation in areas away from the intense urban life. At Hostmaster we can handle your property, no matter its location.
We are already active in many areas of Athens.

Kolonaki
Kolonaki is considered the “aristocratic” district of Athens. It evolved especially at the end of the 19th century in a classy neighborhood that we know to this day, with its beautiful neoclassical and modern buildings. One can get there, starting from the metro of Syntagma or Evangelismos. Today it is one of the most cosmopolitan hangouts in Athens, as it gathers expensive shops, many popular cafes, modern crowded bars and luxurious restaurants.
Syntagma
Syntagma is the most central part of Athens, the heart of the city. Plaka and Monastiraki is only 500m. away, while Acropolis and Thisseio is only a 1km. distance.

Psirri
The location is pivotal to the Athenian map, since you are exactly in the heart of the city. Psirri has become through the years, an irreplaceable piece of the Athenian culture and civilization. The area, besides being a cultural centre, is also characterised by liveliness and vibrancy that will make you feel the Athenian palm from the very first moment. Inside the picturesque alleys filled with artistic graffiti and the traditional Athenian architecture of Ancient Greece, decorated with small handmade jewellery shops, the cart-postals you have been browsing on the internet will come to life. We can describe the neighbourhood of Psirri as a tender mix of the history of Ancient Greece, its charm, the romance of the Ancient Athens, the palm and the liveliness of the new generation of cultural evolution.
