Hyatt Regency Thessaloniki

Conveniently close to the airport, the Hyatt Regency Thessaloniki suits travellers passing through as well as short stays. With luxury shops, a spa, ballrooms and some of the largest hotel rooms in northern Greece, it is one of the best hotels in the region.

Setting and arrival

I arrived from Meteora in the evening, and the front desk was efficient and professional.

The rooms

My 80-square-metre Deluxe King had a balcony over the gardens and traditional Greek decor, with an oversized, well-lit work area, wired and wireless internet, a safe, minibar, robes, satellite TV and individual climate control. The spacious marble bathroom has a shower and separate bath. Rooms range up to two Presidential Suites.

Dining and drinks

The Lobby Lounge is good for a light dinner and drink. Ambrosia, the main restaurant, has seven-metre ceilings clad in cherry wood and huge windows onto a terrace overlooking the gardens, waterfall and pool. Breakfast includes Greek specialities, and the lunch and dinner menus change through the year to feature fresh local produce.

The verdict

Spacious rooms, beautiful grounds and attentive service make the Hyatt Regency an excellent choice in Thessaloniki, especially for those flying in or out.
