A rare heritage stay by The Halo Collection - high ceilings, original details, and a private courtyard escape in the heart of Athens.

Step inside The Silk House - a lovingly restored 1930s neoclassical residence in Metaxourgeio, one of Athens' most vibrant and culturally rich neighborhoods. Part of The Halo Collection, this two-level home is a rare find: original architectural character meeting thoughtful modern comfort, steps from the city's historic heart.




The home
Spread across two levels, Silk House sleeps families, couples, and small groups in three distinct bedrooms. The main level features a spacious master bedroom with soaring ceilings, an elegant chandelier-lit living room, and a fully equipped kitchen and dining area.
