We are going to stay in the Captains hotel on 3rd September. We havent been away for 4 years and would like to catch up with any changes in this hotel. eg are there phones in the rooms as the Thomson Brochures do not say. Also i guess there is no air conditioning in the hotel, so can you hire fans ?
We got back from Zante on the 18th September and we would highly recommend this Island and the time of year for an enjoyable holiday. We had 3 electric storms (one was truly fantastic) fortunately all were at night. The temps ranged from Hot, Hot to HOT in the upper 30s all the time.Another good reason to go to Zante at this time of year is that it isnt too crowded. A lot of the children have gone back to school and so things are a little quieter. We didnt have too much of a problem with mosquitos but watch out for the wasps, they are big mothers !!!! We have been to other greek Islands and think that this is the best one weve been to, very green despite the heat, very friendly people, wonderful beer and wine. Definately will go again.
After reading the comments on this page before we went, I was a little worried. However my worries were unfounded.What an excellent Hotel, Very Very Clean, Very Friendly, Excellent Food, Fantastic view over the resort of Argassi and Zante Town.The Hill can be a bit of a killer especially late at night after you have sampled the local brew, but as said before, you can always cut through the commodore hotel.A word of caution,watch the marble steps, very dodgy when wet. The rooms were basic, but comfortable and had security boxes in the cupboard. What the hotel lacks in *****s it makes up for in its staff. They are all extremely hard workers and nothing is too much of a problem. We really think that the star rating should be higher.My family and I would like to thank, Juno(Mgr),Aspa(Recp/Ent),George(Chef)Alexia and Costas for a wonderful time they made the holiday fantastic and if georges son is reading this, your mum is great and your dad is a fantastic cook. Thank them all for us and keep up the good work.
