  The Halkidiki Hotel Association was founded in 1982. It is a non-profitable professional association that has its central offices in Polygyros in Halkidiki, a branch in Thessaloniki and its members are hotels that belong to the Prefecture of Halkidiki.
  Today, it represents 40-45% of the hotels of the region and 75% of the hotel beds. This potential allows us to play a vital role in the development of tourism in Halkidiki and, generally, in North Greece.
  Our actions prove that we undertook this role with great responsibility and seriousness. The activities that we have developed until today made us one of the most dynamic professional carriers in the country.
  The Halkidiki Hotel Association, for several years, achieved to go further than the conventional activities of a professional association that is mostly interested in promoting the professional interests of its members. It undertakes higher activities and initiatives and cooperates with the local and other authorities that have an important and determinative role in the development of tourism in the region.
