Stay In Thessaloniki Hotels & Explore City

Most of the thessaloniki hotels are located near the center and give travelers the opportunity to explore every corner of the city on foot. Thessaloniki is like a real history museum. Each period has left its imprint on the city with memorials and sights that can be found in every corner. Those that select Thessaloniki for their vacation, as well as its citizens, have the opportunity to share and experience this city with a 23-century heritage.

Thessaloniki was a metropolitan hub for the Macedonians, the capital of a tetrarchy for the Romans, co-regent for the Byzantines, the Balkans' economic and financial powerhouse during Ottoman rule, and the co-capital of the current Greek state. Many of the city's attractions are located within the city's fortified walls, and some of them have been designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

The sightseeing tour of Thessaloniki, and the majority of thessaloniki hotels can guide you about, can begin at Ladadika, located adjacent to the city's port. The Ladadika area, with its listed buildings and cobbled cobblestones, becomes a magnet for visitors who want to witness Thessaloniki before the huge fire of 1917 and taste scrumtious traditional dishes in the taverns and restaurants.

Aristotelous Square is only five minutes away from this ancient district. Ernest Hebrard designed the structure following the big fire. Its distinctive architecture and stores provide the most cosmopolitan respite from sightseeing and shopping in Thessaloniki. The Ancient Roman Agora, established around the end of the second century AD, is located on the same axis as Aristotelous Street, after Egnatia Street.
