Contessa Hotel
(Hotels in Argassi)
 
10/10 Janis Perrin (July 04, 2010)
Have just returned from a brilliant stay at this hotel, we have been holidaying in Argassi for a number of years and Contessa is the best hotel in this resort without a doubt.  It is spotlessly clean and all the staff are really friendly.  The rooms are spacious and what a delight to have a proper bath and shower after some of the places where we have stayed and you spend half the time trying to stop the water from going everywhere. 
The owner and his daughters Angela and Alicia are very welcoming and make you feel like one of the family come to stay rather than paying guests and nothing is too much trouble for them.  Athina at the pool snack bar is also great. 
We would recommend this hotel to anyone and will certainly be going back again - Bravo to all
See you in September
Steve and Jan

Brilliant time, GEMMA and SIMON you were great entertainment, you made our holiday so much more enjoyable.
 
The CONTESSA was such a great place, well located, a life saver from the Admiral that was vile and not a place we were able to stay in for more that 1 hour.
 
The rooms are clean, modern and have very friendly staff. The entertainment - SIMON AND GEMMA are a talented couple, funny, entertaining and they give 100% to the job. Sadly I think they will be snapped up by someone and will be surprised if they are there next season. The hotel pool is lovely and the pool bar serves every drink imaginable and the food is second to none. The place is run very well and very hygenic.
 
Contessa does do a breakfast in the main hotel, fabulous view, but it isnt really for us brits, some creamy looking thing and a cold egg?? but that is the only negative comment i can make! literally opposite (a 2 second walk) is the Pheonix, serving a variety of breakfasts, and for 4 euros you can get a full english, tea or coffee, toast and Juice!

 Me and my girlfriend didn't stay in this hotel but we wish we did. We stayed in one of the rooms for the last night because we had a early morning flight and our hotel made us vacate at 12pm so we had nowhere to stay that evening and because we got on so well with the staff at the Contessa they let us have a room for the night (at a small cost) and what a room it was like a 5 STAR ROOM . We came to the entertainment every night and we had a great time at this hotel and the entertainment was fab. Simon and Gemma are amazing singers and made the night very lively and fun.Simon and Gemma did different acts every night and were all very good my favourite night was the Blues Brothers tribute and my girlfreinds was Queen. They also did every night a quiz, cash bingo, deal or no deal and at the end of the night when everyone is a little worse for where a KAREOKE WAHEY!!!! A big thanks to Gemma, Simon, Angela, Lorenzo and all the other staff at the hotel for a good laugh and making us feel very welcome at their hotel. This hotel has some great veiws and a 2 min walk from town. The pool was very nice to get in and there was a snack bar with good food. It's a nice family hotel and doesn't get that loud. We enjoyed the time we stayed at the hotel in the evenings so much  that were going back again this year to stay at the hotel for a week and would  recommend people who want to stay in Argassi to stay here.I rate this hotel a 10 out of 10.

Went to Argassi for two weeks but stayed at a nearby hotel wished we had stayed at the Contessa. We went to the Conntessa every night to watch the best entertainment in Argassi. From Angela to the barman Lorenzo we were made very welcome even though we did not stay there.The entertainment was provided by the outstanding duo of MR SIMON LOWE and MISS GEMMA MARQUEZ. There was bingo , deal or no deal and of course Gemmas quiz.Thank you all for making our holiday a wonderful one and hope to see you again.

Just had a holiday of a lifetime in Zante.  Stayed at the wrong hotel though...........  Two days in the holiday was told about the Contessa and that they put on good entertainment.  We thought we would give it a go.....well we ended up there every night.  What a selection of really good stuff to see and do.  From quizzes to shows, bingo to kareoke, they had the lot...even kids disco and clubs.  Congratulations Contessa you have certainly got it right and we will be back next year.

Thanks Angela for being the perfect host and thanks Simon and Gemma for entertaining us so well.

See you all soon.

Pauline and Mike

We went on holiday for two weeks, the last week in may and the first week in june, whilst we were there we bumped into two really nice people who said they were doing a seasons entertainment at the Contessa hotel.
We went to the hotel and found it excellent, all the bar staff were warm, freindly and polite, the food was of the highest quality, top marks to haris the chef, angela was warm, freindly, she took time to show us round the hotel, the rooms were of a very high standard, like a palace commpared to were we were stopping, ( the admirals, part of the captains and commodore, not recommended).
The entertainment deserves top marks, there is something for everyone, entertainment for the children during the day, and on the evening there is a quiz, deal or no deal, you can win up to 100 euro,then sit back and enjoy the show, by simon and jemma, there is a different theme everynight, grease, queen tribute, blues brothers, movies, take that, and party night, not one of them should be missed, then theres karoke for everyone to join in and give it a go, i did, this is six nights a week top entertainment, not to be missed.. its simply the best entertainment in argassi

We went to Argassi for two weeks the first week was ok but the second was fantastic we found a excellent hotel with fabulous entertainment for all the family, the hotel staff were so friendly and make you feel welcome. Angela was really friendly and helpful she showed us round the rooms and made us feel really welcome. The bar staff were really friendly too.

The entertainment was great doing six different live shows, Quizes, Deal or No Deal and then Karaoke and Games top marks for the entertainers
We also had the pleasure of having meals at the Contessa 10/10 for Haris the chef.

We were on holiday at Zante but couldnt find live entertainment which we enjoy, until we heard of good entertainment at the Contessa Hotel. it was a double act, the entertainment starts from about 8pm first a childs disco, followed by a short game of bingo.After they then have a quiz and a game of deal or no deal to win 100 euros. Once the fun entertainment has finished they both sing, doing a different theme each night which is an excellent show. After the show they have another quiz followed by a kareoke, it is well recomended and excellent 6 nights a week entertainment, they made our holiday, thank you from Chris,Barney,Derek & Ann

I didnt stay in this hotel but spent most days and nights here. Days by the pool and nights in the bar watching the entertainment. The staff here are very friendly, go out their way to make sure you are enjoying yourself. Angela took us round to look at some of the rooms here, and they're about a million times better than what we had up at captains. The location of this hotel is also great. No big hills to walk up. The food is fantastic, Haris the Chef is a genious in the kitchen. The fish was awsome, definately recommend. The entire hotel is very clean and no matter which room you get you over look the pool.

We are comming back to argassi in september and definately staying here. Have recommended this hotel to everyone i know.

Had the most fantastic holiday.  The hotel and the resort had everything we could have asked for.  Hotel was very clean, staff were friendly and helpful.  Added bonus of live entertainment most evenings of a very high standard.  Simon and Gemma were the entertainers and they did a great job catering for all ages and all tastes.  The kids loved their kids clubs too.  It makes a pleasant change to find people who really enjoy doing what they do and that was reflected in their shows.

Can't wait for September when we will be back there again.  Well done Contessa.......................
