The hotel is approximately 45 km southwest of Thessaloniki city center and gives you the perfect starting point to explore the Olympus region and the Pieria coast.

Poseidon Palace is located in the Leptokaria area on the Thermaic Gulf, with sandy beaches right outside your door. The nearest town Katerini is only 20 km north and offers farmers' markets and tavernas. Olympus National Park is 25 km south and a must for nature lovers.
