Still confused as to which hotel to choose while visiting Thessaloniki? Why fuss with luxury five-star resorts or traditional suites, book a room at the new "rail hotel". Trains have always had a romantic feel about them, and your home away from home can become adventurous and very comfortable with the new hotel that is expected to be created at the Railway Museum in Thessaloniki.
Specifically, a luxury Belgian train coach, from 1946, is apparently going to be converted into a hotel and it will be permanently set up at the Thessaloniki Railway Museum in the Kordelio-Evosmos municipality. The "rail hotel" will be able to host up to 30 guests.
The idea, concept and/or initiative comes from an 83-year-old railway pensioner, and president of the "Friends of Thessaloniki Railway" society, Mr. Efthymis Kontopoulos. Currently the coach is under restoration work, and it will soon open its doors to welcome guests.
