Wow! This hotel is amazing. The layout and interior design were breathtaking. The breakfast in the morning was unmatched. The location was right by the water as well as anything you need. I stayed on the first floor and was worried about the sound travel from the nearby restaurants and bars but the rooms are completely sound proofed. Absolutely loved my stay there and if I come back to Thessaloniki, I would choose this hotel again 1000%.

We stayed for one night, we chose a junior suite that was spacious and with a view of the city. As the hotel is in the city we did not have noise. We enjoyed our breakfast as there was a buffet and a la carte menu of eggs & pancakes.
