“Lovely stay, convenient location, gorgeous pool, on the whole very comfortable. Would visit again if back in Zante.”
The location of this hotel is very convenient. Only a short walk from the hustle and bustle, but far enough away that you didn’t hear it. Sun loungers were super comfy and plenty of them to go around. Friendly staff and every clean.

Loved the pool area and poolside bar and restaurant. Staff were so friendly. The room we had involved dragging luggage up and down spiral staircases which proved difficult . Some improvements in the room could be implemented. The hair dryer was very old fashioned 1970's style . The linen on bed seemed too small for bedsize. Phone in room didn't work even though we reported it. Nor did the key for the safe. All small things I know but these things all added up to inconvenience for us. Overall the vibe at hotel was great otherwise. Oh and they have Greek night with young Greek dancers who fully involved the crowd. A beautiful Greek BBQ was offered this night also. Probably the highlight of stay.

“Perfect holiday destination in Zakynthos”
We rented two rooms, one with sea and pool views and the other with views of surrounding places. Both rooms were spacious, clean, and well equipped, and the bed was comfortable too. We had a rich, varied breakfast in the restaurant on the upper floor, from here too, there is a wonderful view of the sea. The hotel has a large swimming pool with sun loungers, parasols and you can spend whole days there if you don't want to go on a trip to the island. Attentive service, nice, demanding environment.

“Very nice hotel in a great location, nice swimming pool with trees around. Cozy and green place”
Breakfast a bit poor. Coffee quality low, fruits nor ripe enough. Egg dishes not very good. What made the moment is the terrace where breakfast can be eaten.

Position is near the centre of Argassi; swimming is very good, the room always cleaned (every day) and well structured. Breakfast full of typical products and other beautiful things. The dinner organized by the hotel (Greek night, Italian night, ecc) are full of emotions and a plus that nobody has.
