When it comes to mixing history, culture, and natural beauty Greece is unparalleled. While Mykonos attracts the partiers and Athens is a magnet for history buffs, Thessaloniki flies under the radar. But visiting Thessaloniki is a delightful experience filled with a mix of ancient wonders and modern vibrancy. The city is jam-packed with amazing museums, charming back alleys, bustling markets, and everything else you’d expect out of a world-class travel destination. 

The city's rich history is evident in its archaeological sites, Byzantine monuments, and captivating museums. Culturally, Thessaloniki has much to offer as well, thanks to its student population. Younger travelers will enjoy the many bars, art galleries, and trendy cafes. Foodies will have a hard time passing the many cafes and hole-in-the-wall restaurants serving up incredible Greek delicacies. Thessaloniki is also a great place for a romantic getaway, with a scenic promenade lining the waterfront and unbeatable views. 

Between the architectural marvels and ancient sites, you’ll want to get around quickly to fit everything in during your stay in Thessaloniki. Fortunately, Thessaloniki has a number of luggage storage services with convenient locations in and around the city. The city center and area around the train station are particularly well-served, so you can rest easy when you hop off the train and want to start exploring immediately. 

Here’s everything you need to know about luggage storage in Thessaloniki:

About Thessaloniki Train Station

Thessaloniki Train Station, also known as Thessaloniki Railway Station, is the main railway hub in the city. Located right in the city center, it’s where most domestic and international travelers arrive when first visiting Thessaloniki (although there is an airport in the city). Most international travelers from outside Europe will fly into Athens before taking the train to Thessaloniki. The station features limited amenities, including ticketing services, waiting areas, cafes, and shops, and it’s well-connected to other parts of the city through public transportation. One feature it lacks is reliable baggage storage, with no luggage lockers for travelers with connections in Thessaloniki. The city lockers around Thessaloniki aren’t the most reliable luggage storage options, either. Luckily, there are services like Bounce that have luggage storage spots around the city. 

Top attractions near Thessaloniki Train Station

White Tower luggage storage

Standing tall along the waterfront, the White Tower offers panoramic views of Thessaloniki and the Thermaic Gulf, but you'll have to climb its steep spiral staircase. Inside, there are engaging exhibits that tell the tower's history as well as the city's past. Many of Thessaloniki’s luggage storage locations are nearby. This is a cramped space, so look into luggage storage facilities before heading over. 

Rotunda luggage storage

The Grand Rotunda is an awe-inspiring structure originally built as a mausoleum. Its impressive dome and intricate mosaics that decorate the interior walls are inspiring examples of Hellenic architecture, and it’s not far from Thessaloniki Train Station. 

Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki luggage storage

If there’s a country where you’ll want to visit an archaeology museum, it’s Greece. This museum houses a world-class collection of artifacts from Macedonia and Greece, including well-restored statues, opulent jewelry, and intricate pottery that bring Hellenic history to life. There aren’t any lockers that will take heavy bags here, so you'll want to book luggage storage service beforehand. 

Church of Agios Dimitrios luggage storage

Thessaloniki's patron saint, Saint Dimitrios, is honored by this magnificent Byzantine church and its stunning mosaics. You’ll want to explore the crypt where the saint's relics are kept for a spooky and fascinating experience. It’s not so spooky that you can’t take the kids! Larger bags and suitcases won't be easy to navigate the church with, so you'll want to find a place to store luggage beforehand.

Aristotelous Square luggage storage

Located in the heart of Thessaloniki, Aristotelous Square is a bustling hub of activity and elegant architecture. Visitors can sit and sip coffee at stylish cafes while they people-watch. Shoppers will want to indulge in some much-needed retail therapy at the square’s many high-end boutiques.

Museum of Byzantine Culture luggage storage

Thessaloniki was once at the heart of the Byzantine Empire, and you can immerse yourself in this fascinating culture’s art and history in this remarkable museum. The museum’s massive collection of religious artifacts, intricate frescoes, and restored mosaics provide one of the world’s best insights into this part of history. 

Transportation options near Thessaloniki Train Station

Walking

Thessaloniki's city center is ideal for exploring on foot, with many of the major attractions, such as the White Tower, Aristotelous Square, and the Rotunda within walking distance of each other. All of the best options for luggage storage near the city center are available through Bounce. The outer neighborhoods are much too far to walk, so arranging an Uber or taking the bus is recommended. 

Public transportation

Buses and trolleys operate throughout the city and connect various neighborhoods and attractions, including the university. Tickets can be purchased onboard or at kiosks. It’s advisable to carry cash if you’re planning on taking the buses. There are no hus station lockers, so you’ll want to find a place to store luggage elsewhere. 

Taxis and rideshare

Taxis are everywhere in Thessaloniki and can be quickly hailed on the street. Ubers are offered everywhere as well and are a better option if you’re traveling outside the city center. 

Car rental

If you plan to explore beyond Thessaloniki’s city center, renting a car is your best option. Several car rental agencies operate in the city, and it’s particularly convenient for those flying in through Thessaloniki Airport. 

Local tips and insider info

  • Try Greek coffee! Traditional Greek coffee is known for its strong and bitter flavor.

You can choose between different styles, such as the sweet "glykós" or the stronger "sketós."
  • Take the cable car to Ano Poli. The scenic ride on the Thessaloniki Cable Car to the historic Ano Poli neighborhood offers breathtaking views of the city as you ascend.
