The room excellent as in the pictures, very clean, with good air conditioning, the beds very comfortable and room quite, you can really rest, everything you need for a perfect stay, the staff was extremely friendly and professional, we arrived a bit early but the room was ready and the girl from the reception was kind enough to offer us to check in earlier. I also must express our gratitude to the receptionist Dukas, who was very welcoming and kind, reccomended us good restaurant and beaches nearby about 15-20 min with car. Since we were traveling with a car, they provided us a free parking infront of the hotel. Breakfast was delicious and offered not too many but very sufficient choice . Definitely worth the money and no doubt we will stay there every time when in Katerini. I definitely recommend and compared offer and price I guarantee this is the best choice no doubt!

    We spent a wonderful holiday at San Panteleimon Hotel and would love to share our experience. The hotel exceeded our expectations with its cleanliness, beautiful surroundings, and especially the professional and friendly staff. Everyone was incredibly helpful, kind, and always ready to assist. We travelled with our almost two-year-old daughter, and from day one we felt truly welcomed. The staff constantly asked if they could help in any way, and they were always happy to prepare special meals for our daughter—whether it was a banana for breakfast, fresh orange juice, or pasta with sauce after a late return from a trip. They even started bringing her a banana every morning without us having to ask. This level of care was truly exceptional. Our daughter is quite active and doesn’t like to sit still during meals, but not once did we feel like it bothered anyone. On the contrary, everyone smiled at her, greeted her, and it was obvious they were happy to see her. As parents, we deeply appreciated this welcoming and understanding approach. Another big advantage was the warm, family-friendly atmosphere. Later we found out that the hotel is actually family-run—and you can feel that in the best way. There’s a play area for children, and a lifeguard is always present at the pool, which gave us peace of mind when swimming with a toddler. The beach is just a few steps away and it’s truly beautiful. We also appreciated the hotel’s flexibility—they had no problem with early check-in. When we went on trips, we received large and delicious packed lunches, and we were even given generous lunch packages for our journey home. The hotel owner would sometimes surprise us with fresh fruit, especially for our daughter, which was another thoughtful touch. We must also highlight the hotel’s cuisine.

    Olympus Villas in my opinion is a special place in the territory of East Olympus. For 4 years, many times being in different places on those coast of the Aegean Sea, I did not suspect of their existence. And this year I was searching for a villa for relaxation in July with my family on the 1st line from the sea, since our baby was almost 1 year old and I was lucky enough to notice exactly this place. Around a dozen of villas are located in a closed area among plane trees and pine trees with their own equipped beach and even with a sports playground. A perfect rоаd with a big amount of shadows to the sea. Тhe road is paved with tiles and when the weather is hot it is a pleasure to walk to the beach on it and back. The villa has everything that is needed : a big pool just for you, a big green territory, barbecue zone, 2 parking places and even a bike. In a few hundred meters there are shops, cafes and wonderful taverns. The cleanliness is outstanding. Unobtrusive and sometimes unnoticeable service. Thanks to the hard work of the staff we were feeling a lot of care and we could have a great time! In booking.com I gave 10 points in the rating, me and my family went to another place for a week and… we felt a difference. We again visited this paradise place at the end of September. Аnd again we were delighted. This time we tried to get to know the staff, thanks to which, our vacation was unforgettable. Thank you Stefania, Elizabeth, Yiota and to all of your colleagues, for your stable professional work. We hope to visit you again.

    Hotel facility is well maintained room very clean with high quality amenities. Room lighting was beautiful! We were upgraded to a room with sea view. Although it was drizzling we still enjoyed the view. Hotel has a very nice restaurant. Nearby beaches and 8 min drive to Byzantine castle of Platamon. Reception desk Katerini was very friendly and kind and very responsive to all our needs and asks. When we need a tea kettle she asked the room service to bring to us shortly. Breakfast was not buffet due to small number of guests that day, but the quality was still good and a big plate of food enough for a very full breakfast. Highly recommend this hotel.

    We spent one day at this hotel with our family, and it was unforgettable! The cozy Greek-style room had a terrace, and the beautiful, well-kept grounds with fragrant herbs created a serene atmosphere. Our son loved watching the chickens at the hotel’s mini-farm, which supplies eggs for breakfast, adding a homely feel. We slept wonderfully on comfortable beds with lavender sachets. The restaurant’s delicious food, elegant setting, and mountain views made dinner special. Breakfast was delightful too! Thanks to the lovely owners for this welcoming place. We’ll definitely return for longer!

    This was an exceptional experience, we stayed in the beach front apartment and the staff went above and beyond. We actually nearly reconsidered our travel plans to stay here longer. Our son was in heaven here. The food was excellent. I am a vegan and they catered for all my needs. My son and my husband enjoy eating meat and the hotel catering was beyond our expectations with both fish and meat options.

    Some pieces of happiness well arranged in an unforgetable atmosphere. So, in order I`ve just talked to you, these people= Gold Stern's from Paralia Katerinis owners, deserve more. The God makes some things so easy to see them deeply. You feel great in this hotel and you feel like you are sitting on a sofa, in your home ambient. And you are not guests travelling away from your country. These people standing up near you are like your relatives, working for you to be happy.. That is why I think that this is a wonder-mission of this family. The dishes of breakfast, no doubt about that, are all very tasty, delicious, wellcooked, with a secret ingredient, that is maybe called °˛love˛˛ Chilli athmosphere, daily cleaning of rooms, locatiom, permanent willing to help the touristts are amazing. You would say that is something so usual but I asure yout hat it isn˛t . Just try it and put your impression here. As a conclusion, good people, don`t miss Gold Stern hotel from Paralia Katerinis and you`ll never walk alone, never mind whether you are or not Liverpool`s fans. You`ll have for all the rest of your life a place to return at.. Well done, Niko! See u soon, bro! Hope so :)

    Litochoro is a fantastic place that combines the mountains and the seaside in the best way. It is located at 300 meters above sea level with fresh air and only 15 minutes from the sea. It offers great opportunities for mountain tourism, lovely restaurants, and important religious sites. The peaceful setting, combined with natural beauty and culture, makes it an ideal destination for both relaxation and exploration.

    As a base it’s ok to explore the surrounding beaches, that said I wasn’t impressed with the beaches either but then I had just come from Halkidiki, Sithonia and the beaches there are beautiful so perhaps I’m being a bit unfair. Skotinis beach and in the opposite direction le moon beach bar on Mylos beach were my favourites. Platamonas is nice to have dinner & a walk one night. As is Nei Pori. Leptokarya itself is bigger than you think but just feels run down somehow. Not a place I’d go back to.

    Platamonas is a great town to visit.

    Platamonas is a great town to visit. Everything is centralized along the waterfront with great restaurants, shops, pharmacies and everything else within easy reach. The streets are kept very clean and the evenings provide a nice family atmosphere to walk, dine and get a gelato. The beaches are nice, with lidos to pay for an umbrella and lounges, or a free beach very close by. English is spoken at almost every shop, hotel and restaurant and I found nothing but curtesy in every transaction.

    A quiet town during the day and very lively at night with the many cocktail bars around the town center. The beaches are very close and you can get to them quite quickly. The locals are very polite and responsive people. The city is very convenient as a location. It is easy to get around the main streets because they are pedestrianized and filled with many shops and restaurants. The city park is a great place to relax. I highly recommend the city, located between great beach resorts and a majestic mountain.

    Small charming village with open-hearted people ,small shops with everything, if you go by car you can enjoy veriety of close beaches and villages near by. Katherine is like a small Thessaloniki, but its just approx 20km, Paralia as well ( go to MANDALA BEACH is the best). Every Friday in Makrigialos is traditional open market with local food fruits vegetables cotton products, fresh fish etc with the lowest prices ever! Do not miss to go to Koutsouro restaurant best food always fresh seafoods amazing view small beach bellow, low prices. also great small cafe with great breakfast next to framacy ( forgot the name its something like MПОYГАТSA)🥹😅😂

    We stayed at Olympiaki Akti, the smaller resort south of Paralia. The beach is a-okay for a budget holiday. The sea was however quite dirty. This may have been due to the specific period in season when it gets this green, but I am not really used to not be able to see my feet from knee-deep height through the water. There's a strange trench in the beach sea floor where a lot debris seems to collect which means that I had to swim through tea-temperature green water with tons of seaweed and strong sunscreen film until after this underwater trench, whereas the sea starts to clear out and one can swim comfortably in more than 1.4m depth. Problem is however that one has to again swim back through the dirty strip before going out of the sea. Beach patrons appear to be on most part of extremely filthy behavior, resulting in a substantial amount of cigarette butts, coffee cups and other trash in the beach sand. I've never before encountered something quite like that in Croatia or Bulgarian black sea coast. The positive highlight would be the part of the beach serviced by Hotel Girni Olympic, which was significantly cleaner than the parts south of it and has a wonderful service, food and drinks. It is also possible to view sunsets from this part of the beach. After some days we've decided to instead travel further up north above Paralia to IL MARE BEACH KORINOS where we were reasonably satisfied with beach cleanliness and great service.

Wish we could have stayed longer as our visit was so relaxing. We visited the old castle, a local beach and Mount Olympus. Plenty of hiking routes to explore. The locals were all so friendly and welcoming.

    The Olympic Riviera is not the name of a resort, as you might expect. It is a 70 km stretch of beach at the foot of Mount Olympus – known worldwide as the mountain of the Gods from Greek mythology. The region in which it is located is called Pieria.
