Alexandros Palace Hotel & Suites

“Loved Alexandros Palace - especially the staff”

We totally loved our stay at Alexandros Palace in Halkidiki. We stayed for a week from 16th June 2026 and the weather was a steady 27-30 degrees. Our little party included myself, my wife and our 4 year old daughter so for context, we were looking for good food, a comfortable room, modern pool area… Más

We totally loved our stay at Alexandros Palace in Halkidiki. We stayed for a week from 16th June 2026 and the weather was a steady 27-30 degrees. Our little party included myself, my wife and our 4 year old daughter so for context, we were looking for good food, a comfortable room, modern pool areas and a friendly/relaxed vibe. Before the good stuff, I have to mention two things – the transfer time from Thessaloniki Airport is about 2.5 hrs so just be prepared for that (we actually got dropped off half way down and then taken by mini bus the second half). Also we weren’t a fan of people smoking across the public spaces of the hotel. But those two small things aside… Staff – absolutely excellent. Most notably Babis, pool barman, was incredibly friendly and wonderful with our daughter. So humble and charming, a credit to the hotel and a truly special person. Orgito, barman, was great fun and really made us feel welcome every time we saw him. Christina, receptionist (in fact all the reception team were helpful and lovely) went out of her way to make our daughter feel at home. The people of this hotel make it the welcoming place it is. Also we want to highlight the lady Maitre D’ who was warm and welcoming every night, again making us feel right at home whenever we visited the restaurant. The room – initially we took a bit of time to get the a/c working but otherwise it was a comfortable garden balcony room with a handy little fridge for water bottles etc and a reasonable sized shower and bathroom. The beds were all fairly firm but didn’t cause any discomfort. We like a bit of local wildlife and the swooping swallows/house martins were a real treat everyday. Restaurant – the selection was plenty enough for us for a week and was always fresh and being attended to by the busy staff. We are vegetarian and were very happy with the selection of Greek salad e.g. lush tomatoes, cucumber and feta. There was pretty much always something nice like freshly cooked pizza, pasta dishes and the ever present trays of fries. Desserts were ice cream or getafi in its various forms. Never disappointed. The seating was either outside overlooking the pool (our favourite place) or inside near the buffet. Either was good and always well looked after by the waiting staff. Pools – we mainly used the adult pool by the front of the hotel. It was never too busy and beds were always free. The bar is right next to it with Babis the excellent barman sorting you out. It was glorious. The other main pool by the children’s pool was also really good with plenty of beds to choose from. It has entertainment fairly regularly (although that’s not our thing). The kids’ pool/mini water park was excellent. It has three short slides, a water gun and a huge bucket that tips a ton of water over everything and was more than enough for our 4 year old. Beach – there is a 4-5 minute walk down through some public gardens (with kids play area) which features a rather cool and unusual subway/underpass under the main road which has local artwork on the walls. Really nice little beach looking across to Ammouliani Island (a ferry trip away). We strolled down here a few times and it has a handy beach bar although as we were all inclusive we didn’t eat here. So sad to leave this amazing hotel with its terrific staff who worked so hard to make our stay feel special. They even had the World Cup matches on every night in the lobby bar so I didn’t miss that either! Thank you so much Alexandros Palace!
