We rested at the San Panteleimon Hotel in the last week of September, we were looking for a budget option in a picturesque place, but with a decent level of service. We were not disappointed in the hotel, although for the first time we rested in a hotel of this category, before that 4 and 5 stars in Turkey and Egypt. The hotel is compact, but on the territory there is a large fresh water pool and a small restaurant for children. We went with half board, next to the hotel you can easily find where to eat. In the hotel itself, the food is average, everything is deliciously cooked, but rather monotonous and with Greek features, a lot of french fries, pasta, high-calorie food, you can’t really follow a diet here. The beach is sandy and pebbly in a three-minute walk, the sunset is pebbly, and on the beach itself there is sand, the entrance is already deep after 5 steps, sunbeds and umbrellas are provided if you buy some drink, we usually took frappe or freshly squeezed juice 2.5 euros. The beach is quite noisy, African-Americans are walking around with their services or goods. Our room was the most ordinary, the situation is quite modest, there is a refrigerator in the room, an old TV with Russian channels, air conditioning, there was no hair dryer, as explained at the reception, it is not allowed for our room category. The place is relatively quiet where the hotel is located, there is practically no animation, except for the Greek evening, but there is a restaurant and slot machines next to the hotel, if your windows face them, then it is noisy in the evening. And so the hotel is in a great location, there are beautiful mountain scenery around, near the Platamonas fortress, on excursions you can quickly get to Olympus, Vergina, a few hours to Meteora, or you can rent a car, as some vacationers did and visit these places yourself.
