Knowledge, experience, and a genuine love for this city.

ARISPremium Accommodation

We have been hosting in Athens since 2015. Today we operate boutique apartments across Athens and Piraeus in fifteen neighbourhoods, as a Superhost-verified host, and we keep every part of it in-house — design, housekeeping, maintenance and guest care all sit with the same team, which is the only way we know to hold a standard across that many doors.

We speak English and Greek, we live here, and we’ll do our best to make your stay as comfortable as it can be. We hope to welcome you back.

Where you'll be

We host where Athenians actually live

Our apartments sit in working neighbourhoods, minutes from the centre by metro — real bakeries and neighbourhood tavernas instead of a street of souvenir shops, and more space for less per night. Click any pin to see the apartment and open its listing.

Before you arrive

The part most people get wrong

Landing in a new city at midnight with a suitcase and no plan is the worst hour of any trip. Follow the four steps below — that hour disappears.

The day you book
Welcome to Athens 👋 Here’s a little about us, what’s around your apartment — the market, the metro, where we actually eat — and the link to arrange your airport transfer. Neighbourhood guideBook a transfer

Step one · From the moment you book

Two messages, and you already know Athens

The first arrives the day you book: who we are, what surrounds the apartment — the market, the metro, the places we actually eat — and the link to arrange your airport transfer while it is still cheap and easy to do.

The second comes the night before you travel, and it is the only one you need on the plane: address, floor, door code, Wi‑Fi. Both are sent automatically through whichever platform you booked on, so nothing depends on you finding an email at the gate.

  • Welcome message — the day you book
  • Check-in message — the night before you arrive
  • Delivered on Airbnb, Booking.com or WhatsApp — wherever you booked
Step two · Airport or port

Don’t argue with a taxi at 1am

It costs the same as joining the queue at the rank — the difference is everything around it. The price is fixed and agreed before you take off, so there is no meter to watch and no conversation to have at one in the morning in a language you don’t speak.

A driver is standing inside arrivals holding your name, with room for the luggage, and he takes you to the door of the apartment — where your code is already waiting.

Step three · Any hour

Let yourself in, whenever you get there

Every apartment has its own door code. No reception, no key handover to coordinate, no waiting on a stranger’s schedule. A 3am landing is genuinely fine — walk in, drop the bag, sleep.

  • Self check-in, twenty-four hours a day
  • A new code for every stay, yours alone
  • Late checkout whenever the calendar allows it
Step four · Every day you’re here

A local team, one message away

We’re in Athens, not a call centre in another timezone — and we answer in English or Greek, usually within the hour. Extra towels, a cot, a late checkout, or an honest opinion on where to eat tonight: same thread, before and during your stay.

  • English and Greek, answered by a person
  • Cots, extra beds, luggage drop, airport pickups
  • Restaurant and neighbourhood advice that isn’t a list

Groups & private events

The whole building can be yours

A private rooftop with its own bar, a garden courtyard downstairs, and the apartments in between. One building, one team, one contact for the whole night — so the party and the beds never end up in different postcodes.

Questions

Good to know

How do I book?

Through Airbnb or Booking.com — each apartment above links straight to its listing, where you'll find live prices, photos and availability. For stays of a month or more, message us directly instead; we'll give you a better rate than the platforms allow.

What time is check-in and check-out?

Check-in is from 15:00 and check-out is at 11:00. That said, because check-in is self-service there is no reception to close — if your flight lands at 2am, that is genuinely fine. Arriving early or leaving late? Message us and we'll do our best, and we can always store your bags.

How does check-in actually work?

Entirely self-service, and deliberately simple. The day before you travel we send you one message with everything in it: the exact address with a map pin, the building and door entry codes, the floor and apartment number, the Wi-Fi password and how to reach us. You go straight from the taxi to the apartment and let yourself in — no reception desk, no meeting a stranger to collect keys, no waiting around because someone is running late. Inside you'll find the printed ARIS guidebook for your neighbourhood. If anything at all is unclear when you arrive, we're on WhatsApp.

Do you have accessible apartments?

Yes, some units are step-free with adapted bathrooms. Message us with exactly what you need and we'll tell you which ones genuinely work — we won't oversell it.

Can you arrange an airport transfer? Is there a discount?

Yes. Book directly through our partner at findtaxi.gr/aris-accommodation and enter the code ARISPR at checkout for €10 off your ride. A driver meets you at arrivals with your name, the price is fixed in advance, and there's no meter and no surprise. If you'd rather we handle it, just send us your flight number on WhatsApp.

Our service

The whole chain — or just the part you need

Buying property in Athens from abroad is not the hard part. Everything after the purchase is. Below is the chain we run end to end. Enter it at any point: some owners bring us in from the first viewing, some buy alone and only want the operation, some already own and simply want the empty weeks to stop. The fee only ever attaches to the part we actually do.

  1. 01

    Sourcing

    We screen the market and bring you units that pencil out, with the numbers behind them — not a feeling.

  2. 02

    Purchase, remotely

    Lawyer, AFM tax number, Greek bank account, power of attorney, negotiation and closing — coordinated in your language.

  3. 03

    Renovate & furnish

    Contractors, design, furnishing and professional photography, managed and inspected on the ground.

  4. 04

    Licence & launch

    AMA short-let registration, accountant appointed, listings built and live on Airbnb and Booking.

  5. 05

    Operate

    Dynamic pricing, guest communication, check-in, housekeeping and maintenance — every day, all year.

  6. 06

    Report & payout

    A statement every month showing what the asset earned, what it cost, and what reaches your account.

— ◆ —

No two deals look the same.
You don’t have to start at the beginning — come in at any link in the chain, and we pick it up from there.

Where we operate

Fifteen neighbourhoods, one team on the ground

We don't manage remotely from another country. Our people are in Athens, in these streets, every day.

Proof, not promises

Real properties. Real performance.

Every figure below comes straight from our booking records for the 2025 calendar year — not modelled, not projected, not the best month. Individual owners stay anonymous on a public page; we open the underlying reservation data on a call.

7–12% net, after everything

Net, not gross. The figure left once the platform, the running costs, Greek tax and our fee have all come out — which is the only figure worth quoting, and the one the market usually avoids.

The percentages are different for every property

They move with the platform mix, the length of stay, the size of the unit and how the purchase is structured — so a single worked example on a website would be a number we made up. Send us a property you own, or one you are looking at, and we will run the real figures on it: gross, every deduction, and what actually lands in your account, from our own reservation data for comparable assets.

Questions

What owners ask us first

Can I buy an apartment in Athens without coming to Greece?

Yes. Most of our clients complete the purchase remotely through a Greek lawyer and a power of attorney. We arrange the AFM tax number, the bank account and the signing, and send video walkthroughs of every unit on the shortlist.

What does management cost, and what's included?

A percentage of revenue with no fixed monthly fee — so we only earn when the apartment does. It covers listings and pricing, all guest communication, check-in, cleaning coordination, maintenance and the monthly owner report. Exact terms in the consultation.

What return should I expect?

It depends on the neighbourhood, the size of the unit and how much renovation it needs. Rather than quote a headline number, we'll show you the actual occupancy and revenue of a comparable asset we already run in that area.

Do you handle the short-let licence and the taxes?

Yes — AMA registration for short-term rental is part of the launch phase, and we work with a Greek accountant who handles the monthly declarations.

I already own an apartment. Can you just manage it?

Yes, that's a large part of what we do — many of the assets in our portfolio belong to other owners, from single studios to entire buildings. We'll look at the unit and tell you honestly what it can earn and what it needs first.

What if I want to use the apartment myself?

Block the dates in the calendar whenever you like. It's your apartment.
