Throw in a circular bar, a couple of hot tubs and the option to order light bites, and the rooftop can stake a claim - alongside the price - to being one of the major lures of this hip 220-room property, the fourth hotel by Tel Aviv-born hospitality group Brown Hotels to open in the Greek capital.

We opt for Thessaloniki escorted tours cooked-to-order pancakes with chocolate sauce, watermelon, good coffee from a high-end Douwe Egberts machine and croissants, before taking advantage of the hotel's handy location in Omonia Square, which has a metro station just three stops from Akropoli - the station for Thessaloniki airport to city taxi cost the Acropolis.
A pouter's paradise, but ironically given the hotel's name, I find it a bit dark and dingy - the only natural light comes from a small window in one corner (and the view is of a crumbling building next door) and creating a relaxing glow artificially is tricky.
