Overall, like the curate’s egg, good in parts.
We arrived at the Met Hotel in October. Unfortunately it was the day after the pool had closed for winter and I had not checked before booking!
The hotel staff are very friendly and efficient. We especially appreciated Mario and the staff in the restaurant.
Our room was at the rear of the hotel and overlooked the railway, shabby buildings and the hills in the distance. Because the rooftop area was closed we were unable to sit in the sun because the balcony was north facing. The central courtyard received very little sun as well.
We went to Thessaloniki primarily to see the monasteries. Unfortunately it was the one rainy day we had and there was low cloud. During the week two different monasteries a day open so it is worth checking which ones are open if you have a preference.
As mentioned there is a free minibus to Aristotle Square from outside the hotel which is really good and we also used the number 31 bus.
There are a huge number of places to eat in the city and just near to the hotel there is 4All convenience store with lots of choice for picnic lunches with very friendly staff. Next to the hotel there is a coffee shop called Smile which has a sunny table outside.
We loved the museums, the churches and the Roman forum visitor centre (the forum itself was closed). There are an amazing number of coffee shops, restaurants and cafes in the centre. The market is also excellent.

Ok hotel, in not ok area.
The hotel is well designed but located inside an old industrial/port, decadent, area. Not nice to walk at night. Abt. 15 minutes walk from the more lively city centre. Parts of the hotel start to need renovation. The reservations department is so-and-so. The reception staff was quick and efficient. Breakfast was good, with very professional and polite staff.
Hotel service very poor
Hotel service very poor, communication poor, bathroom paint dirty, do not keep agreements, very disappointing, 5 stars is a joke.
Outstanding Hotel, Exceptional Staff
We have stayed in many hotels over the years, but The Met Hotel is genuinely one of the best.
The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful—modern, stylish, and spotlessly clean throughout. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The breakfast was simply out of this world, with an amazing selection of delicious, high-quality food. It was something we looked forward to every morning.
The rooftop pool is another real highlight. It's large, beautiful, and a wonderful place to spend a few hours. Although there are only a limited number of sunbeds, the hotel manages this exceptionally well. They don't allow guests to reserve beds all day by simply leaving a towel on them, and they even offer a proper reservation system, which is fair, well organised, and makes the whole experience much more enjoyable.
What really makes this hotel stand out, though, is the staff. Every single person we met was warm, friendly, professional, and genuinely cared about making our stay as enjoyable as possible. Their kindness and attention to detail created such a welcoming atmosphere.
Unfortunately, I had an accident during our holiday, which meant I spent most of my stay in a wheelchair. It could easily have ruined our trip, but the incredible staff did everything they could to make sure I was comfortable and well looked after. Their care, compassion, and willingness to go above and beyond meant so much to us and turned what could have been a very difficult experience into one we will still remember fondly.
A very special mention has to go to Katharine at the bar. Every morning she welcomed us with the biggest smile, always remembered us, and constantly went out of her way to make us feel special. She is an absolute credit to the hotel, and her warmth and genuine kindness perfectly sum up the level of service we experienced throughout our stay.
The Met Hotel doesn't just offer beautiful facilities—it offers outstanding hospitality. We left feeling genuinely cared for, and we can't thank the whole team enough. We would recommend this hotel without hesitation and very much hope to return one day.

Modern Hotel
We had a very pleasant stay at The Met Hotel Thessaloniki. The hotel is modern, clean, and beautifully designed, with a very nice contemporary style throughout. One of the best parts of our stay was the rooftop pool. It has a great atmosphere and a beautiful view over the city, making it a perfect place to relax. The staff were very welcoming and professional, and the hospitality was excellent from the moment we arrived. Breakfast was also very good, with a nice variety and quality options. In the evening, the rooftop bar is a great spot for cocktails, nice views, and modern food in a stylish setting. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would gladly recommend The Met Hotel Thessaloniki to anyone visiting the city.
