Welcome to the A.U.R.A. Gracious Accessible 4-bedroom / 5-bathroom apartment.
Scroll down for a detailed description for guests with vision impairment.
Large apartment / 180sq.m (1937sq.foot). Rented as a whole or as 2 separate and connecting apartments, found in two different listings, located on the first floor (1st in Europe / 2d in the U.S.).
We are honoured to introduce our latest apartment (2023), especially designed to offer comfort and accessibility, so much needed in Athenian short-term rentals, for leisure or business trips.
The Gracious apartment is the fourth large apartment at the A.U.R.A. complex, a privately owned and managed property building, in the most convenient, quiet, and beautiful Athenian neighborhood named Thission, in the heart of the Athens historical center.
Visitors’ comments for all A.U.R.A. properties primarily focus on three major advantages: Quality accommodation, ideal location and a hospitable host/owner, supported by an admirable team. What follows explains why.
The apartment’s description:
The A.U.R.A. Gracious Accessible Apartment is situated on the 1st floor (2d for U.S.) and is served by an elevator. There are 4 comfortable bedrooms (one with a queen size sofa bed) and 5 bathrooms (3 en suite and 2 next to the respective bedrooms). Please note that three bedrooms can be set as either king size or two single beds, based on our guests' convenience, while one bedroom is equipped with a sofa-bed. The bedding arrangements provided on this listing relate to the maximum capacity. In the spacious living room, another sofa bed may also accommodate 1-2 persons. Guests are kindly requested to define their desired bedding arrangements and we will be happy to have them prepared accordingly.
We are proud to have created one distinguished part of the apartment as wheelchair accessible (also found as a separate listing) with a specially designed bathroom and accessibility features.
The kitchen area connecting to the living area and large dining table, is convenient and comfortable for homemade meals. An inviting balcony offers a lovely view over the street’s life as a theatrical scene overlooking Athenians passing by to enjoy a drink, or meal in one of the neighborhood’s hip spots. An electric piano is also added for small musical gatherings, always with respect to the quiet hours which prevail in Greece.
All rooms offer separate A/C, and the apartment is quite spacious, offering guests’ autonomy and privacy which are so valuable during traveling, even for the closest group members.
For preferred bedding accommodation please refer to the following name codes:
Bedroom 1: Akrokeramus (included in the living room area)
Bedroom 2: Mosaic
Bedroom 3: Rodax
Bedroom 4: Keramus
Bedroom 5: Lithos
DESCRIPTION IN DETAIL FOR GUESTS WITH VISION IMPAIRMENT:
Entering the apartment (door opening into the left) we found ourselves in an entrance hall of 3m X 2.90m width.
On the wall across from the entrance door there is a metal coat hunger. To the right, half a meter from the door is a bench to allow taking off shoe; to the left, a closet with a washing machine and cleaning products.
The apartment extends to the left and right of the entrance hall. The left part is the larger one, the right part is adapted to physical accessibility.
A long corridor of (9m X 1.14m width) leads to the left part. At 7.75m a door to the right opens to the Rodax bedroom with ensuite bathroom and an open closet. The corridor ends to the open kitchen area, found to the right and a quite spacious living area. An antique 3-seater wood sofa and two respective armchairs in a spectacular blue velvet are found to the left, just before the glass window leading to the balcony and front of the building. A large glass dining or meeting table for comfortably seated 10-12 persons is placed in the middle of the living area. A second 3-seater sofa and a comfortable armchair are placed on the right side, also next to a second opening window leading to the same balcony. At the end of the kitchen bench a door leads to a bathroom (for guests using the sofa bed) and to our Mosaic bedroom to the right with ensuite shower bathroom and a convenient open closet.
For the right part of the apartment, we cross a kitchenette to our left (refrigerator and freezer, two ring induction hobs and sink). Continuing straight we have a door to the left for the adapted bathroom to physical accessibility, a living area or bedroom with sofa bed and a large folding door and further to the right a large bedroom and second shower bathroom. The bedroom has the bed(s) across from its entrance door and to the right a 115m sliding window door which opens to a small balcony and a non-accessible roof top green area. The bedroom is equipped with a convenient open closet and wardrobe lifting mechanism for accessibility.
Other things to note:
• To further complement our guests’ comfort we have created a privately owned and secure storage facility just across our building’s entrance. No need to worry about early arrivals into Athens or late departures as it may be accessed by code.
• Parking is offered on the premises, upon request and based on availability.
• Elevator is serving all floors, no stairs at the entrances.
