Thessaloniki has the potential to become a strong city break destination, Gregoris Skalisthiras, owner of the pioneering Thess Residences, tells Tornos News, capturing the transitional phase the city is currently going through as it balances growth with the search for its identity. As he characteristically noted: “Thessaloniki has improved. New, upgraded neighbourhoods have emerged, with Thess Residences being the first to anticipate the development of Mavili Square, followed by many others in the hospitality and food and beverage sectors. New hotels, an upgraded airport, and higher-quality dining and entertainment.”
