“Overall a good deal.”

The hotel was convenient to the airport and close to a bus stop that had busses into Thessaloniki - however, the bus ride into the city was close to an hour. Other than that, I can't say enough about the staff at the hotel and the breakfast! Both were outstanding. Rooms were comfortable and clean. AND the non-smoking rooms didn't smell like smoke. Overall a good value for your money.

“Great Hotel near Airport”

Nice Hotel, 5 Minutes away from International Thessaloniki Airport. (Breakfast at hotel restaurant only a 3 out of 5).

“airport shuttle!”

The room was a bit dingy, and there was a distinct odor of carbon monoxide that was difficult to get rid of. (I wasn't sure I would wake up on time for my flight!) However, you couldn't be any more convenient to the airport. The shuttle was quick, but I wish there had been instructions about how to obtain it upon arrival at the airport. The staff were lovely. This is not a good location if you want to venture out into the city and don't have your own vehicle - unless you go to the airport and then get a bus into the city.

“Convenient to airport. That's about it.”

We were flying out of Thessaloniki very early one morning, so we stayed at Athina Palace the night before to save on drive time. Plusses: fairly new, nice (and nice sized) room, clean, free shuttle to airport. Minuses: far from anywhere else, expensive cab ride into center of Thessaloniki, "impressive" Pelagos Club with fully equipped gym (website's description) was a ping-pong table, a small indoor pool, a sauna and three or four pieces of exercise equipment (I think a bike or two and a ski machine, or something similar). No attendant. And this is the only hotel I've ever stayed in that had no maps, no brochures, and no information about sightseeing in the town in which it was located. Unless you must be close to the airport, there's no reason to stay here.

“Poor Service”

We booked through Expedia with specific request for large room for the price, as I had some physio exercises to do...The receptionist really couldnt care less, and said that no request had been received, only when I produced a copy of the request from my bag did she shrug, and repeated like an automation that it was room 108 or a suite. A giggling companion, (I think he was the maintenance man) sniggered as they spoke to each other in Greek obviously laughing at my request. The room was fine, reasonable size and clean. The meal in restaurant was ok, but the price of two bacardi and cokes at 8.50 euros each was a complete rip off. No service at the pool, we were supposed to ring for a bar man, again no sign of service at all. We wanted to eat at 1pm on the Monday, due to our flight times, but were told we could have toast as the chef left after breakfast, which stopped at 10.30, and we could have something at 3pm. As we chose this hotel because it claimed to be so close to the aiport, we thought that some food would be available, but no! An expensive taxi ride in to the centre of town meant we did get a bite to eat eventually. If you want location near to airport not a bad place to stay. I won't ever again because the service was so so poor.
