Everything was wonderful

We have just returned from a wonderful week staying at the Ionian Hill hotel. We requested an early check in, due to arriving early in the morning and this was accommodated without any issues. The hotel is set on a hill overlooking Zakynthos town and parts of Agassi, along with fantastic views of the sea. Our room was beautiful, clean and compact with a balcony and magnificent views of the sea. We had fresh towels and our bed made daily. The staff are exceptional, a warm welcome from the reception team and a good selection of breakfast in the morning, the lady that runs the breakfast is wonderful, warm and friendly, I recommend the homemade marmalade, so tasty. We ate 3 nights in the restaurant Al Nur, which is part of the Hotel, the food was fantastic, I highly recommend eating there, the evening waitress and waiter were great, really attentive and great customer service. We ended each evening with cocktails from the bar when we returned from eating out, both the Zakynthian Sunset and Al Nur Tafathalo are wonderful and a perfect accompany to the nighttime view of Zakynthos. We have stayed in several Hotels over the past in Zakynthos and this by far was the best. Thank you to all of the staff, you made our holiday truly wonderful, we will be back! Xx

Nothing to mention.

Most amazing experience! We were welcomed so friendly and warm-hearted. All the staff is very hospitable and always helpful. As we arrived early and had to wait for the room we were offered a welcome drink on the terrace. The view is breathtaking! The room is very nice and has everything you need. Parking in front of the hotel is easy. You can easily reach the airport, there is a lively area in walking distance and Zakynthos town is a few minutes away by car. The pool area is beautiful and we can also recommend the restaurant, the food was excellent and the view is insane! But what made our stay so special was the entire staff. They are so kind and made our stay the most lovely experience. Thank you also to Angelica who even offered to buy oat milk for me and all the other restaurant and reception staff. You are truly amazing! We would always come back. 100% recommendation!

Breakfast could be improved with more variety and warmer options.

My room was exactly as shown in the pictures, very clean and well-kept. It had a smart TV, which allowed us to watch Netflix 😉, and a balcony with sunbeds offering beautiful views of both the pool and the sea. The included breakfast was also a thoughtful touch and added to the overall experience.

Position in Argasi is perfect for moving to the most beautiful beaches and places around Zante. The hotel position offers a wonderful view and breath-taking sunsets. The personnel is kind, always available and smiling. The room was perfect for us as a couple; the design and colours are super relaxing; a corner with a kettle and a coffee machine is also available; the swimming pool is a plus and it’s always clean and never crowded. We found the hotel a magic place to live our 10 days vacation!

The breathtaking view

Stayed in July 2025

The pool closed quite early.. it would have been nice for it to be open a bit longer but appreciate that it’s next to dinner tables, so not sure how this would have worked in reality. Wasps! Although they can’t be helped.

All staff were very friendly and made our stay relaxing and happy. View from our balcony was lovely!

Stayed in July 2025

Longish walk into town but only because the location of the hotel was quiet with excellent views - we did not want to be central in Argasi.

Excellent view with sunsets. Excellent staff. Lovely pool and facilities. Very good breakfasts. Staff very helpful at booking reservations for dinner. Reserved the biggest rooms with sea view - superb. Excellent views for drinks after dinner. Would happily return. Really peaceful away from the town centre.

- The opening hours of the pool - after 7-8PM the pool was closed and this is a pity as the pool was great but during the day I prefer to visit the island - The rooms are quite compact, with the sink in the room rather than the bathroom and there wasn't a lot of storage for clothes. - Pretty good breakfast, but just gets very repetitive if you stay longer than 3 days

- The view from our room was fantastic (booked a room with sea view) - The staff were very friendly - Spotlessly clean and well maintained - Free parking

Honestly, not much to mention! If I had to pick something, the scrambled eggs at breakfast weren’t my favourite – they felt slightly undercooked for my taste and could use a bit of butter for extra flavour. Also, the lunch menu was quite basic with limited options, so a bit more variety there would be great.

I had the best time at Ionian Hill Hotel! So many people told me to stay in Laganas, saying it’s the best location — but no no no — I absolutely fell in love with Argassi. I can’t recommend it enough! The hotel has beautiful sea and pool views, and the surroundings are so peaceful and relaxing. The staff were incredible – warm, welcoming, and always ready to help. They made the best Aperol Spritz, and the breakfast was lovely too, with a wide selection of pastries, fruits, and bakery items. (The eggs weren’t my favourite, but everything else was delicious!) My room was clean and comfy, and I really appreciated being given one with a pool and sea view – such a kind gesture. I even celebrated my birthday there, and they surprised me with a bottle of wine, which was so thoughtful and made my stay even more special. Overall, I felt genuinely looked after and at home. If you’re visiting Zakynthos, skip Laganas – stay here instead. Thank you to everyone at Ionian Hill for such an amazing stay! 💛

Air conditioning in rooms was not great. Room never felt cool

Fabulous setting. All areas are clean & well maintained. Staff were pleasant & helpful. Special mention to bar/restaurant staff especially the lady (I think her name is Angelette), she is an asset to the hotel.

Not much - room could perhaps have been bigger.

Great breakfast. Lots of choice. Superb view. Staff were exceptionally friendly and efficient.

This hotel was absolutely wonderful from booking to check out this morning. Everything was perfect, attentive but not overbearing friendly staff, spotlessly clean and well maintained and in a fabulous location, overlooking the bay and the most stunning sunsets. The food at breakfast was plentiful and had an excellent variety but it was the evening meals in Al Nur the on-site restaurant that made the stay extra special, they were second to none. Special mentions to Athena on reception and Angelina in the Restaurant - both were exceptional and took great care of us. I hope to return soon when time allows!

Only thing I could mention here is the breakfast. It actually is a pretty good breakfast, but just gets very repetitive if you stay longer than 3 days. That’s the case at almost every hotel though.

Everything was great! Pool area and restaurant are perfect, such a cool view! Also the room is really nice, comfortable beds and super clean. Personnel is very nice and helpful!

Clean, comfortable stay with great helpful staff. Great location, good to use as base to travel around the island

Stayed in June 2025

It is a 15-20 minute walk downhill to town, which after dinner is a long walk back uphill! But worth it for the best hotel in the town.

Beautiful hotel, incredible views over the sea & Zakynthos town. Staff are lovely, very quick to help. Breakfast setting is amazing with the same great views. Overall just a really really nice stay. The nearby town of Argassi is great for food and shops.

We received an upgrade to our room for our anniversary but it actually seemed smaller than what we paid for - it was still front facing with a sea view but there wasn’t much room for luggage, no wardrobe just hanging rail with hangers so not what we were expecting from the pictures. The sink was in the bedroom which we didn’t love. When other rooms were being cleaned they seemed to be the same as the pictures so maybe we just drew the short straw. The hotel also suggest using a slightly more expensive taxi service than other options so do your research. A few mornings there were some issues with shell in the eggs at breakfast but breakfast was good otherwise. Also mosquitoes are a problem on the island so would be good to have mosquito nets in the room. Would also have been nice to have tissues in the room just to add a more 4 star feel but otherwise good.

Very clean hotel and very friendly staff. Comfy double beds. Amazing view and in a great location with shops/restaurants just a 15 min walk away. Good breakfast variety and AMAZING food and cocktails at the hotel restaurant for dinner. Great massage service offered for in room massages. Overall great value for money. Nice pool area with sunbeds looking out on the view. October is a great time to stay for privacy / quiet pool area and the town is also much quieter.

It was late in the season and so a few of the nearest tavernas and restaurants had closed. This meant that we had to walk approx. 1 mile to the nearest available taverna. Obviously, this is no fault of the hotel. There were a few items no longer on the menu at the hotel restaurant, again due to the lateness in the season. The hotel is accessed via steep inclines from the main road at both the front and rear of the property. This might prove challenging for guests with mobility issues.

The setting and views out across the bay to Zakynthos were outstanding. The staff were very helpful, courteous and professional at all times. The rooms were stylish and contemporary. All areas of the hotel were kept spotlessly clean.
