    There is nothing that I didn’t like. Well, maybe I would add a coffee maker in the rooms.

    The location was very peaceful and tranquil. Nice breakfast on the terrace.

    In the foyer/reception area, there was minimal amount of brochures advertising tour/cruises around Zakynthos.

    A great location - quiet but not too far from the town centre. Good breakfast and friendly staff willing to help out with questions and queries. Shuttle van was a great service if you wanted it to take you to town for shopping etc.

    You do need a car to get around. You can’t really walk anywhere from the hotel.

    Spacious nice room, cleaned everyday with new towels. Staff friendly. Breakfast included nice breakfast with nice view. Great view from room. AC great. Good location. Nice swimming pool.

    More variety for breakfast. They changed one thing every day, but the rest were pretty ok. Nonetheless, the breakfast is good, you can choose what to eat, however the coffee was very different (but that I guess is because Greek coffee in general is a bit different than the rest of the countries)

    There are 2 buildings for the same hotel, one who is newer as far as we understoond, but you can’t really notice any difference between as of which one is newer and which one is not. There is one which is right by the pool, and the other one who has a garden view and that is where you eat the breakfast. The room from the one we stayed in (the one by the pool) was way more spacious than the one where you eat the breakfast in (which is suppose to be newer). The bathroom had some space in it, the room was spacious and the balcony pretty ok( example: we stayed 4 people at the table on the balcony). The rooms from the other building (where you eat breakfast) were smaller and did not have a lot of space in the bathroom. For example, a 2m(height) person doesn’t have that much space. Other than that, they clean the room everyday, change the sheets and towels, and the personnel is very nice to you. The receptionists speak very well English so you won’t have a problem understanding them. Overall, the hotel is nice, pretty and I definitely recommend it

    The hotel's location is excellent, quiet and convenient, with lots of greenery around it. Parking your vehicle is very easy. The staff is very polite and helpful. The room was modern, spacious and had a great view from its' balcony. The bathroom was spotless and fully equipped. The pool area and the pool itself are very clean and well-maintained. The breakfast was served in a beautiful and spacious room, it had a lot of choices and every day something new was added. Overall, we were completely satisfied with the hotel, we highly recommend it and would definitely choose it again for our next trip to Zakynthos.

    Excellent hotel just outside Zakynthos Town

    Very little negative to say. The slightly more secluded location of Hotel Varres adds to the peacefulness and tranquility, but may be a problem for hotel guests without a car. The walking distance to Zakynthos Town is approx. 20 min, but the walk can be quite perilous due to the high traffic density and the (partial) absence of pedestrian sidewalks. Wouldn't recommend walking after dark.

    Very nice and peaceful accommodation in the hills northwest of Zakynthos Town. Hotel Varres is ideal for couples that want to enjoy the restaurants, shops and interesting sites of Zakynthos Town, but prefer to relax and sleep in a more tranquil environment. The hotel is situated on a large hilly property covered with olive trees. The hotel anbd the surrounding property are very well maintained and clean. Hotel rooms are quite large and they are cleaned every day. The breakfast buffet offers a good choices of hot and cold dishes. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. They even organized a take-out breakfast for us on a day when we had to leave early for a daytrip. Hotel Varres fulfilled all our expectations, and on some points even exceeded them.

    We enjoyed everything except: -There is no mosquito net at the balcony door, we had to kill some so we could sleep. -There is just one free wall outlet in the room. -The main light in the room has to warm up before it works properly. -There are no glasses in the room. -40 minutes walk to the city; renting a car is recommended.

    -We booked the Mountain View room with breakfast included. -Breakfast was fresh and various. The restaurant has a terrace with a beautiful view. -We ate dinner at the hotel terrace by the pool, food was very tasty and the prices are better than the prices at the restaurants in town. -Staff was always welcoming and willing to help. -The room was very clean and it got cleaned every day (not just new towels and empty trash), even our pijamas were folded. -We received new toiletries every day. -A company that does boat tours around the island picks you up and brings you back to the hotel (MyTours). We recommend this hotel!

    The mattress were not that comfortable ,its worth am upgrade. Unfortunately we did not had a car, cause we looked online and the city was not that far, but there is no path way for pedestrians so it can be dangerous to walk on the street. Taxis are difficult to find sometimes, especially in high season . There is no public transport. I would say a car or a scooter is a must have.

    We loved the bar &pool . the rooms have a very good size and with nice view.Breakfast tasty. Dinner at the pool terrace also very good especially the fresh fish of the day.

    Too far from Zakynthos Town. Getting a taxi to the hotel was really difficult.

    We enjoyed having cocktails by the pool. Our room was comfortable and clean. Breakfast was really nice.

    Hotel Varres is located in quiet and nice area. We liked it, it was peaceful. Enjoying our evenings at the hotel bar, near pool. Meals from hotel restautant were delicious, and also service at the bar was very good. Nice guys. Also guys at the hotel reception were helpful. It is near to the city by car or square. Rooms are equipped by air conditioning. Rooms are cleaned every day. Hotel Varres was great choice for our vaccation on Zakynthos. :)
