Hydrama Grand Hotel 

 

The building is a historic landmark of industrial architecture in the early thirties. An imposing building of 7,500 sq.m. with minimal architecture. The construction of the building took place in the decade between 1914-1924 which coincides with the “Golden Age” of tobacco. For the construction of the building it was required to import timber from the forests of Austria along with skilled craftsmen. The buildings’ first use was for tobacco processing. In 1974 tobacco processing stopped in Greece and the building changed use to tobacco warehouse. Thirty years later, the warehouse’s future changed again, with the plans of a luxury hotel. The new owner company  completed the restoration of the building after five years of study and work with high sense of responsibility and absolute respect for the history of the monument and the region. The building has been converted into a modern, luxury hotel, having maintained its particular architectural elements. The Hydrama Grand Hotel is located at the centre of Drama, in front of the natural springs and lakes of Santa Barbara, which characterize Drama as "City of Water".  The hotel has a spa center and hot tub, and guests can enjoy a meal at the restaurant.
