The Excelsior Hotel – Thessaloniki

About The Excelsior Hotel

An adults-only boutique hotel, The Excelsior sits within a renovated historic building that dates back to 1924, located near the seafront and the main square in Thessaloniki, just steps from the main sights. Inside the classic façade are surprisingly modern details, including contemporary works of art, a glass-enclosed rooftop breakfast room and an industrial-style restaurant along with 34 elegant rooms.

Overview

One of the top spots for exploring Greece’s second city, The Excelsior is just minutes from the mansion- and café-lined main square while providing a stylish mix of old and new. The building features original details like Art Deco balconies, original plaster ceiling roses and marble staircases, although there is lots of modern art and high-quality furnishings while the high ceilings come with glamorous light fixtures. The classic rooms boast pale hardwood floors and full-length windows for plenty of natural light along with amenities like iPod docks, Nespresso machines and Tivoli radios. Junior suites include a balcony with a courtyard or city view, but if you’re looking for a more spacious option, the Excelsior Suites come with his-and-her bathrooms along with separate living rooms. When it’s time to explore, a leisurely stroll along the seafront promenade, lined with ouzo bars and unique shops, will bring you to the city’s most famous landmark, the 16^th-century White Tower. Guests can also take advantage of the gym and spa at the Excelsior’s neighboring sister’s property.
