Accommodation in Exarcheia from NZ$87

Looking for a holiday destination that’s a little bit old school, a little bit cutting edge and a lot rock ‘n’ roll? Spend your next trip to Athens checking out the free-thinking and free-wheeling neighbourhood of Exarhia. Located right in the city centre, Exarhia is famous for archaeology and anarchy. Yes, anarchy. Home to academics, Bohemians and artists, Exarhia has a long history or marching to its own beat. So pack your bags and join the rhythm!

Look for Exarhia accommodation all over the small district—from luxurious boutique hotels to historic family-owned inns. You can also branch out a little to the west to book your pick of even more hotels in Athens.

Things to Do in Exarhia

To set the scene of this ancient and thoroughly modern city, start at the National Archaeological Museum, with artefacts crossing millennia and civilisations. From there, you can walk to the Epigraphic Museum to put your secondary school classics lessons to work—it’s all Greek to us (see what we did there?). Start moving toward the present day at the open-air summer cinemas, where you can enjoy a good film if you’re not too distracted by interesting people-watching. After hours, make your way to Exarhia Square, accessible on foot from Valtetsiou Street. You can eat your fill of tavern food and find the nearest house party or book club before relaxing in one of the cosy hotels in Exarhia—yes, we said book clubs and dance parties.

Getting To & Around Exarhia

Touch down at Athens International Airport (ATH), located about 35 km east of Exarhia. Public transit is plentiful near the city centre and you may be able to get around without even hailing a taxi, so pack your walking shoes.
