The countdown to Christmas has begun and our schedule for the next month includes strolls down streets with glittering shop windows, gift lists and meetings with loved ones. Everyday moments of joy, carefreeness and warmth are priceless and enrich our memories every year. But this year, along with all of this, we want to live a new, exciting experience full of glamour, rich flavours and ecstatic aromas, because the change of performances lifts our spirits and relaxes us.

To find what we’re looking for, we don’t have to go far, because no matter where we’re based, our beloved Thessaloniki is perfect for a short getaway, as it’s easy to reach by car. Charming as few, the “nymph of Thermaikos” is famous for its good food, nightlife and glamour, characteristics that make touring its historic streets a unique experience.

But to achieve the ultimate combination of fun and comfort, we need accommodation worthy of our expectations like Makedonia Palace, the 5-star hotel located on the beach of Thermaikos. Overlooking the endless blue of the sea, Makedonia Palace is a landmark for Thessaloniki where the rhythms of the city blend harmoniously with the crashing waves. This is why it is the ultimate destination not only for travelers, but also for the residents of Thessaloniki themselves who find in the hotel their paradise of premium experiences at any hour and moment, in the heart of the city, especially during the Christmas season when we have a little more time for ourselves.

So, lit up and festive, Makedonia Palace invites us to the glittering events it has prepared this year for Christmas and New Year and shares with us some of the magic of the holidays. He is setting up an impressive buffet that will be filled with amazing dishes prepared by executive chef Sotiris Evangelou and we have nothing but to enjoy the menu and have fun.

For the Christmas Eve celebration, the hotel has prepared a sumptuous festive buffet where the chef will unfold a series of seasonal flavors, with an emphasis on tradition. Dishes such as Sweet Potato Soup with roasted chestnuts, Beef Fillet Satobrian, and a wide variety of desserts such as Stollen and chocolate cake will cause a taste explosion, while Evi Siamanda will accompany the evening with her performances.

At Christmas lunch, the buffet will feature a new menu, with attention to detail and… the ultimate goal of elevating our senses. We will taste Tartare of faggot with salt flower, Wild boar in wine with onions, Deer with quince and chestnuts, Roast duck with green pepper and orange, and many other imaginative and unique dishes.

And the time has come to bid farewell to 2024, to welcome with glory and honor the promising 2025. Of course, Makedonia Palace has made sure to make the turn of the year special, always with gastronomy at its heart.
Thus, for the New Year’s Eve celebration, it has prepared a glamorous buffet, with dishes such as Beef Carpaccio with rocket, parmesan, and truffle dressing, Fresh Scottish salmon baked in salt with champagne sauce, Beef fillet flambéed with cognac. And as the time starts counting down, Zoe Papadopoulou and her orchestra will make sure we will have fun and dance until the morning.

New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day and we can enjoy our lunch at Makedonia Palace’s buffet with an exquisite variety of dishes, such as Carpaccio of basset with ginger and citrus, Zarkadi with blackberries and green pepper, Fragocota with mushrooms and chestnuts.

This holiday season we give ourselves and our loved ones the most beautiful gift, a complete experience full of taste and glamour, in the heart of beautiful Thessaloniki. An experience that only Makedonia Palace can offer us.
