STAYED AT THE KATERINA FIRST 2 WEEKS IN SEPTEMBER, 2ND VISIT TO ARGASSI THIS HOTEL WAS BY FAR THE BEST, I E MAILED THEM IN ADVANCE AND ASKED FOR A ROOM OVERLOOKING THE TOP POOL AND WE GOT WHAT WE ASKED FOR. THE POOL WAS LOVELY AND AS PEOPLE HAVE SAID LOADS OF SUNBEDS, ROOMS WERE BASIC BUT CLEAN AND THE STAFF WERE LOVELY AND FRIENDLY. LOTS OF GOOD RESTAURANTS CASTAWAYS, ETHNIC AND PALMYRA. CAN ANYBODY TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED TO THE 3 GORGEOUS KITTENS WHO WERE ALWAYS ROUND THE POOL. I KNOW NOT EVERYBODY LIKES CATS BUT I HAVE 2 OF MY OWN AND AM AN AVID ANIMAL LOVER, I HAVE E MAILED THE KATERINA BUT HAVE NOT HAD A REPLY AND THE SEASON ENDS SOON SO I WAS JUST WORRIED ABOUT HOW AND IF THEY WOULD BE LOOKED AFTER. THERE ARE JUST TOO MANY STRAY ANIMALS ALL OVER ZANTE I KNOW THERE IS ZANTE ANIMAL WELFARE BUT THEY SEEM TO CONCENTRATE MORE ON THE DOGS, YOU JUSR HEAR SUCH TERRIBLE STORIES OF WHAT HAPPENS TOP THE ANIMALS I AM LOOKING TO GO BACK TO ZANTE AGAIN NEXT YEAR MAY TRY TSIVILI AGAIN BUT WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND KATERINA PALACE AND ARGASSI.
Have just booked for 2 weeks at katerina Palace, from 11 June 2010. Have been twice before, it is a lovely hotel and the studios are adequate and always clean. Katerina and her staff are very welcoming and we are really looking forward to our stay again.
Just returned from a wonderful week at the katerina palace with my best friend. (ages 17 and 18). We weren't wanting a clubbing holiday in the slightest, just a relaxed, pretty atmosphere with a bit of a buzz at night, and argassi was perfect for this. We stayed in studio 23, right next to the exit of the hotel and it was perfect for us. The rooms were cleaned every day, and towels were changed 3 times in our one week stay. The staff were also very friendly and helpful, and although a little dubious about our ages at first, seemed to relax around us after realising we werent there to cause trouble. I cant wait to book up this hotel again for next year, would certainly stay in the studios again as argassi has lovely places to eat out every day/night so no need to eat in the hotel. (I recommend ethnic and the green frog) best holiday ever. Miss it already!
I have been to this hotel twice in the past and it was great. I went 7 and 3 years ago and would happily go back again. The hotel is in a great location in the centre of the resort. 2 minutes walk from the shops and 5 minutes walk from the beach. The rooms are of a good standard and size and are very clean. The pool area is very nice and there are 2 good sized swimming pools with plenty of sunbeds available and nice gardens surrounding the area. The snack bar is also very good and the breakfast which they do is also great. Katrina the owner of the hotel also spends a lot of time there and is very friendly and introduces herself and makes time to talk to you. She also makes sure that the hotel is kept very clean. I would recommend this hotel to anyone!
well another great two weeks at the katerina hotel,it was my birthday and balloons and a sign were put on our door.the welcome was great as usual and staff were so kind.katerina even arranged for a fantastic cake for later that day.a big thank you and see you all again in may
Just got back and what can I say, its was even better at Katerinas than last time. The new pool is very nice allthough shallow. Plenty of sunbeds and the staff are very helpful and friendly and Katerina comes around each day to say hello to her guests. Stayed in studios which were basic but very clean. Needed aircon as temps reached up to 38deg and 40 on day we left. All in all once again had brill time and will definately go back.
i love it that much at katerinas i have just booked for two weeks in september and two weeks next may,blimy ive got some overtime to do as ive only just got back.
stayed fro our first time last year at the katerina hotel and thought it was so so good that we booked again for may and we were not dissapointed we stayed in the appartments and had a a great time,the staff cannot do enough for you from the moment you arrive untill your departure,we are now looking to return in september with a group of friends.hmmm i knew i should have got the e mail address.roll on september and another great stay at the katerina palace.
If you have booked b&b then you will be in the hotel, which have lovely views of the pool. We stayed here twice, once sc and once b&b. I hope their breakfasts have imporved because boiled eggs are on the menu everyday, ok if they wern't rock solid and turning that awful colour around the yolk, twice a week they wil put on scrambled eggs and tinned sausages. Seemes to me they cater more for the Grmans, they complained and were basically given what ever they wanted, we complianed to the rep and got sod all! Cant deny that Argassi is a fantastic place, we have been visiting twice a year for the past 4 years. To hire a fridge if my memory serves me right i think it was about 5 euro's a daty, oh and by the way you dont get a kettle either, we had to buy ours. I'm not trying to put anyone off honestly you will have a fab time, I would definitely stay here again, but I would go with self catering at least then you can go and find somewhere to have breakfast, trust me there are loads of lovely places to try. The staff are all lovely and they really cant do enough for you. The hotel/apartments really are in the best location!
only six weeks to go, can't wait to be back at Katerinas again. Last there 4 years ago looking forward to seeing new pool etc. Will arrive about lunch time, just in time for a long drink at the very friendly snack bar.
B & B will be in the hotel, the studios are self catering, the breakfast is ok - continental but plenty of it - you will have a lovely time. Katerina and her staff will do everything they can to make your stay a pleasant one.
Hi, does anyone know if the new buildings are studios or part of the hotel, we are coming to stay in June 08 and have stayed here before the new part was built. Can't wait, Katerina and everyone were great last time.
