When they say “hidden in plain sight,” this is what they mean. Right in the busy heart of the city center, just a block from Thessaloniki’s scenic waterfront, the Excelsior is a bit of a surprise. The classic facade gives little hint of the sort of hotel that awaits inside — this is a luxury boutique in the contemporary mold, a hotel whose urbane, understated modern design belies Thessaloniki’s history-first reputation.
The classic rooms have been re-outfitted in a modern style, sunny and light-filled, the original full-length windows and pocket-sized balconies remaining alongside hardwood floors and a minimal color palette, all furnished with contemporary designer pieces and artworks by local artists, and the Excelsior Suites are not just bigger but also more stylish than the rest. There’s a distinct buzz to the city outside; light sleepers might wish to book a courtyard-facing room, or make strategic use of the iPod-ready Tivoli radios.
And if you detect a certain pan-European influence, you’re not imagining it. A small spa offers a variety of therapies by Elemis, the British spa concern. Meanwhile the Excelsior’s restaurant serves a fusion of French cuisine highlighting Greek ingredients, a mellow lounge occupies the mezzanine level, and the roof garden, probably the hotel’s most surprising space, provides a panoramic view of the city.
How to get there:
The Excelsior Hotel is 10 miles (15km) from Thessaloniki's Macedonia Airport (approximately 35-50 minutes by taxi depending on traffic).
Thessaloniki train station is 1.2 miles (2km) from the hotel.

What I liked:
It was incredibly quiet for the city, centrally located both for the city and non-touristy restaurants. We were delighted with the food, both at breakfast and the restaurant. Shower was fabulous.

What I liked:
Excelsior was very clean, bright and welcoming. The location was excellent too. Finally, the staff was extremely helpful from arrival to departure. I would definitely stay here again. Oh, and the Nespresso was a fantastic, and well used, addition to the room.
