Orestias Kastorias

excellent location

Great property in a central area, convenient for walking around the city. Very clean older building, with high ceilings, good heating and our room had a nice view. The staff spoke English and were very helpful. Highly recommend!

Nice and clean room with nice view. The owner is very kind and helpful. Good location.

Very central location. From the airport bus stop "Plateia Aristotelous" on Egnatia street next to the Bey Hamam it's just a 400 metre walk ever so slightly uphill that's easily navigable with a wheeled suitcase. Some of the upper-floor rooms have views of the Roman Agora archaeological site. We had a wonderful stay here. We first were on the upper floor but since there is no lift this became a bit burdensome. But the staff couldn't have been more helpful in finding us a different room for the rest of our stay and even carried our suitcases up and down the stairs for us. Even though the room was overlooking a cocktail bar we didn't have any major noise issues. All the staff members we interacted with were always helpful with smiles on their faces, providing us with great information and insight, and finally arranging for a taxi to the airport. Top tip: when you exit the hotel, turn right and walk uphill on that little street. At the top, turn right again and you'll find bakery Sarantis that sells excellent tiropitas and baklavas, perfect for breakfast.

So yes, it's basic and yes, it's dated, and yes, it's a bit shabby. But all that adds to its charm. What I actually loved: - This was a last minute booking from a day before and managed to get a room which was cool - The reception staff were superb (thanks Giannis, and the other Giannis and Dionysus). All absolutely helpful, and also very attentive and thoughtful. Was also great chatting to them in Greek (I'm British and of Asian descent and it was reassuring to know I still have my Ellinika game hehe) - Location was ace. Right in the middle of Thessaloniki action. You can't go wrong. It's v close to the main Egnatia ***** where most of the stuff happens. Many many thanks to everyone. Lots of love kai tha leme meta kai sintoma :)

The hotel is conveniently located close to the centre of Thessaloniki, all monuments, museums and archaeology sightings are within walking distance. The hotel is also close to lots of bars that are open till late which makes it convenient to have a couple more drinks before heading back to the hotel to sleep. The hotel was very clean and tidy. The room was comfortable fresh towels and bedding changed everyday.

The hotelier I interacted with was fantastic: he knew what I needed before I needed it and provided great recommendations for places to dine and what to see. For the price especially in summer, this is a great destination!

Good price, nothing fancy but nice and tidy. Nice staff, perfect location.

Nice place, helpful staff on the reception. Good location for getting to the main parts of town and the most well known tourist attractions.
