The property, with a total area of 474,524 m2, includes the facilities of the “Galini” hotel and the “Hippokratis” hydrotherapy center, which are in operation, the listed hotels “Radion” and “Thronion” and the “Asklipios” hydrotherapy center, which are abandoned. Within the area is the “Georgalas” thermal spring, which has been recognized since April 2020.
The tender process for the exploitation of the property is carried out in one phase, while the financial consideration includes a one-time consideration of at least 1 million euros and an annual rent, with the sole criterion for the evaluation of the offers being the highest final rent, made up of the one-time consideration and the annual rent offered in present value. The bidder, through the lease agreement, will be required to implement mandatory investments in order to upgrade and modernize the property.
It should also be noted that the Mitsis group is also developing a four star hotel in Piraeus with 150 beds, in the former Metaxas warehouse.
