B48 Athens Dafni offers modern, fully equipped studios designed for urban travellers looking for comfort and independence in Athens. Each apartment features a hob, sink, microwave, fridge and contemporary décor that brings warmth and functionality, ideal for both short and mid-length stays.
The property sits in the Agios Ioannis area, a step from the metro station of the same name (red line) and just three stops from Athens' historic centre. It's a quiet, residential setting, with cafés, bakeries and traditional Greek taverns just minutes away on foot — perfect for travellers who prefer to stay away from the tourist crowds without giving up easy access to the Acropolis.
HOW TO GET THERE:
- From the airport: Take the blue line (M3) to Syntagma and change to the red line (M2) towards Elliniko. Get off at Agios Ioannis, three stops after Syntagma. Estimated time: 45-55 minutes.
- By car: Head down Leof. Vouliagmenis avenue; the building is at number 164. Free street parking is available nearby, though the property has no private car park.
- By bus: The "Aghios Ioannis" stop on Leof. Vouliagmenis (lines 140 and 218) is a couple of minutes' walk from the building.
- By tram: There is no tram stop in the Agios Ioannis area. The nearest one is Neos Kosmos (line T6), reachable in one metro stop or about a 10-minute walk; from there the tram connects directly to Zappio and Syntagma.
- By metro: Agios Ioannis station (red line, M2) is just a 5-minute walk away — one stop closer to the historic centre than Dafni station. It's just 3 stops from Acropolis station, next to the Acropolis Museum.
- By train: From Larissis station, take the red line towards Elliniko and get off at Agios Ioannis (approx. 15-18 minutes, no transfers).
- By taxi: You can book with Taxiplon for a reliable service to/from the airport or the city centre.
"The place was very clean and not too far from the station, which was great. While I might have had to be a bit more cautious walking at night, I never felt unsafe.
I was supposed to receive an email from the hotel with my booking number and check-in instructions before my arrival date, but I didn't. This led to a lengthy and tiring check-in process when I arrived late at night. Although I was able to get a relatively quick response by contacting staff via WhatsApp 24/7, those booking through Trip.com should be aware of this potential issue."
