Living in Athens, one neighbourhood at a time.
Neighbourhood guides, honest notes on long stays, and the practical stuff of moving to Athens. Written by the people who keep the apartments.
Living in Athens
The cost of living in Athens in 2026, honestly
What a month really costs, from coffee to rent to the metro, without the property-portal optimism.
Long Stays
Short stay or monthly: which rate is right for your trip
The maths is simpler than it looks. Where the nightly rate stops making sense and the monthly one takes over.
For Companies
Housing a team in Athens, from five people to fifty
One point of contact, apartments across neighbourhoods, and a single monthly invoice. How team housing scales without the spreadsheet growing teeth.
Living in Athens
Getting around Athens: metro, tram, and when to skip the car
Three metro lines, one coastal tram, and a walkable centre. What you actually need, and what you can leave at the airport.
Neighbourhood Guides
Living in Paleo Faliro, sea breeze and the coastal tram
A calmer stretch of the coast, halfway between the centre and the Riviera, with the tram running the length of it.
