Guesthouse and Scholars' apartment

The Guesthouse, Kavalotti 5

The Norwegian Institute at Athens runs a guesthouse situated next to the Nordic Library, in the area of Acropolis/Makrigianni. The guesthouse is mainly used for lodging students who attend lectures and seminars at the Institute. In between our seminars, the facilities are available to students, researchers, scholars and others by request.

The Guesthouse consists of two separate apartments in a two-story neoclassicist building. On each floor there are 4 bedrooms, some singles and some twin beds, with a shared kitchen, bathroom, and a small common room with TV and dining facilities. The guesthouse also has a laundry room, a small backyard, and a roof terrace.
The kitchen is equipped with a fridge, a stove for cooking, and a dishwasher. The rooms have duvets for the winter, bed sheets and towels. Weekly housekeeping and change of bed sheets and towels is performed by the Institute’s staff, but the guests are responsible for keeping the rooms and common areas clean and in good shape.

The guesthouse is usually occupied during mid-January to March, mid-June till August and most of October, as well as 1-2 weeks in November, due to seminars held by the Norwegian Institute at Athens.   For inquires about the rooms or housing, please contact us by e-mail, and we will send you an application form.  Return the form by e-mail, and we will answer your request as soon as possible.
