Altura Hotel Zakynthos

The hotel was lovely and clean and the staff were great. The pools were good, and the fact that the manager went out an removed towels from around the pool at 9:00am every morning to stop people trying to reserve sunbeds was superb. The food was wonderful and there was lots of it.

There is one photo in the batch shown when you book this hotel that is either out of date (being kind) or a con (being brutal) and that is of a classy inside bar. THIS DOESN'T EXIST. so be careful. There is only one bar and it is by the pool. So once you've showered and changed for the evening you can still only get a drink in a plastic cup out by the pool. This isn't great. Plus it's small. On the Greek night everyone had to sit on sunbeds as there was no space. The other very odd thing is that there is no ground floor indoor toilets! Very odd. There are toilets outside behind the building which you use for the pools etc. There is one mens cubicle. So again in the evening that is all you can use. So having dinner you either go back to your room, or go outside and use the pool toilet. Odd. Makes the whole thing feel down-market. Finally please be warned that this is a TUI hotel. This means that absolutely everyone in the hotel is a Brit. They were all really nice - but it isn't the experience you expect when booking a hotel abroad independently.

Pools were lovely. Food was very nice. Drinks good. Excellent value for money

Under beds not clean. Safe keys were needed rather than a coded safe. Had to find somewhere safe to keep the key.

Location is good, room is clean, food is okay

Bathroom has some smell, seafood not all days. Wine and beer was awful

the location is perfect

we liked our room and the food was also really good. The pools were pretty nice too and the staff was really helpful.

Our bathroom did not look like the one in the pictures and the Wi-Fi was really bad. Also be prepared that there is almost no service on the whole island.

It is only 10 min from the beach. The food was great. Bed was very comfortable and we had a view from the apartment.

The bathroom could have been better.
