The Hotel Galaxy is in a really convenient spot.
It’s just a couple of minutes’ walk from the nearest supermarket, 5 minutes from the heart of Thassos Town, and around 15 minutes from a sandy beach.Despite being close to everything, the property is lovely and quiet.
It’s surrounded by green fields and set against a backdrop of the island’s forested mountains.
For the best view of the countryside, seek out the hotel’s swimming pool, which is set in a sunny terrace freckled with sunbeds and tropical shrubs.Every morning, the hotel owners lay out a traditional Greek breakfast.
There are breads, cold meats, cheeses, yoghurt and honey.
You can eat indoors or out on the terrace, which looks out over the surrounding greenery.Lastly, it's worth mentioning that this hotel has recently had a modern, minimalist makeover.
In the rooms, for example, exposed brickwork is backlit by recessed LED lights.Things centre around the pool at this place – it dips into the sunny terrace and is surrounded by sunbeds and parasols.
There’s a pool bar, too, for a spot of refreshment and a big brick barbecue that’s occasionally lit.
Still on the food side of things, there’s also a little breakfast room dressed in white and grey.
