Aliakmonas Hotel sits on Dimokratias Avenue in central Kozani, the administrative capital of Western Macedonia and the largest city in the region. The hotel takes its name from the Aliakmonas River, the longest river entirely within Greece, which flows through the broader prefecture before feeding the Polyfytos reservoir a short distance from the city. The property is positioned close to Kozani's main commercial strip and municipal buildings, making it a practical base for business travellers and for visitors using Kozani as a staging point to reach Kastoria, Florina, or the Prespa lakes. The building is a mid-century urban hotel that has been maintained to a functional mid-range standard; interiors are straightforward with clean rooms, air conditioning, and en-suite bathrooms. Room types span singles, doubles, and triples — the triple rooms are well-suited to travelling families or small groups. The on-site restaurant offers Greek cuisine covering salads, grilled meats, and traditional starters, and the bar functions as a social space for both hotel guests and local regulars. Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, and parking is provided for guests. Kozani itself is not a primary tourist destination but serves as a useful transit hub: the Western Macedonia Airport (formerly Filippos Airport) is approximately ten kilometres from the city centre, and the town offers good fuel, provisions, and transport connections for exploring the wider region.

Tips for visiting
- Kozani is a working regional capital rather than a tourist town; the hotel is at its best as a transit base rather than a destination stay.
- The Polyfytos reservoir, one of the largest in Greece, is a 20-minute drive from central Kozani and offers dramatic lake scenery worth a morning detour.
- The restaurant is popular with local business lunchers on weekdays — arrive before 13:30 for the best table selection.
- Western Macedonia Airport is about 10 km from the hotel; a taxi or rental car is the practical option as public transport to the airport is limited.
- Kozani's main market street (parallel to Dimokratias) has good bakeries for an inexpensive early breakfast before a long driving day.
