How to reach the Hotel from the Airport

For those arriving at the Makedonia Airport of Thessaloniki there are two options for travelling to the hotel:

(a) By bus
  • (Bus Stop Airport-Arrivals) - to IKEA (end station): Bus Nr 79
  • From IKEA station to Voulgari station: Bus Nr. 2 (Direction to New Railway Station)
  • From Voulgari station to Sfagia (Porto Palace) Station : Bus Nr. 31 (Direction to KTEL)
You will need two tickets: 0.80 euro (and if you buy it on the bus 0.90 euro) for the trip from Airport to IKEA and one ticket 0.90 euros (and if you buy it on the bus 1.00 euro) for the next two routes. Don't forget to validate your ticket when you enter the bus. You must also validate the second ticket twice, once on each bus (Nr. 2 and Nr. 31).

(b) By taxi
The ride will cost 22-25 euros. (A good idea is if you could share the fare with friends who are arriving at the same time)

  1. I have heard that the taxi drivers are on strike at the moment. I shall arrive at the airport at 23.30 on Sunday. Will buses or other forms of transport be available then? - Philip Davies

  2. It is not clear whether the taxi strike will last till the 7th of August. In my experience this is not usually the case. However and since no one can be certain in these days you can use the public transportation or make use of the hotel shuttle bus. Please see the announcement I made today on the blog.
