Hotels with Breakfast Included in Katerini — What to Expect
For many travelers, Katerini is the perfect, practical base for exploring northern Greece. It sits just a short drive from the coast, putting the long, sandy beaches of Paralia and Olympiaki Akti within easy reach. The city’s real charm, however, is its proximity to the mythical Mount Olympus. A day trip to hike its lower slopes or visit the ancient Dion archaeological site, with its sanctuaries and villas, is an essential experience. Back in town, the central Ermou Street offers a slice of local life with its cafes and shops.
Katerini suits self-sufficient travelers and families looking for good value and a convenient location. Staying near the central Plateia Eleftherias puts you within walking distance of most restaurants and amenities. For quicker beach access, consider the coastal strip. The city is a major transport hub, with excellent bus connections to Thessaloniki’s airport, about an hour away, and regular trains heading south towards Athens.
On HOTEVI, you’ll find around 40 places to stay in and around Katerini. The selection is dominated by good-value, family-run hotels and modern apartments in the city center, with a smaller number of straightforward beachfront hotels and seasonal resorts along the coast.
