Friendly base near the beach
Guests really rate the Palatino Hotel for its friendly staff and top location. It’s in a brilliant setting – slightly tucked away from it all, but only a short walk from the bright lights of Zante Town and just across the road from a sandy beach. It means you’ve got plenty of peace and quiet back at base, but you can join in with the hustle and bustle whenever you like. The hotel also puts on a shuttle bus to Zante Port, which is slightly further out. Here, there are pretty sugar-cube buildings and a range of seafront restaurants.
Start your day here with a tasty breakfast – pastries with honey, local cheese pies, and egg and bacon are all laid out buffet-style. The Palatino Café & Bar offers light bites and cocktails all day, while the Trinity restaurant specialises in Mediterranean fare. Freshly netted shrimps, steaks and delicacies like souvlaki all make the cut. For a more elevated experience (pardon the pun), make for the rooftop – there's a pool, a bar, a restaurant serving Greek and Mediterranean bites, and views to boot – perfect for unwinding and watching the sun set.
As for the rooms, they’re charming and traditional, with light-wood furniture and floral wallpaper. Each one comes with a satellite TV, air-conditioning and a balcony, and you can opt to have your first meal of the day served here, with a view of the sea and the sun on your face.

Find out more about Zante Town
Nestled at the foot of a mountain and fringed by a historic port overlooking the Ionian Sea, no one can say that Zante Town holidays are anything but picturesque. The capital city of the island of Zante is steeped in cultural significance – cobbled streets are lined with ornate Venetian-style architecture harking back to when the island was under Italian rule. History buffs will be interested to view precious artworks in the town’s Byzantine Museum, which were saved after the 1953 earthquake that destroyed much of the city.
