More than lived up to expectations
from Logie88
We stayed at the Clio following recommendations from friends who are long term visitors to Alykes. We found it to be even better than we had hoped and excellent value for its price range. The staff are almost all family members and are extremely helpful, pleasant and generous with complimentary extras such as fruit, nibbles and wine. The bar prices are very reasonable and there is a good daytime menu. The evening menu is more restricted but Silver's specials are absolutely delicious, great value and usually come with complimentary...

PERFECT!!!
from FellowsCambridge
I just got back from a quick break to relax on my own and the Clio was perfect, the family look after you when you need and leave you to relax when you want. The apartments were great and can't imagine anyone that could find fault. Perfect for anyone!!!
Simply the Best
from Grecian1953
Having stayed at the Clio for the past 3 years most recently in August 2008 the effort and attention of Fotis and his family to give you the best service possible is the best ingredient for a very pleasant holiday. Contrary to some opinions the bed linen is changed every day and the hotel is kept spotlessly clean. It is no problem to Fotis and his family to supply extra playthings for the kids at the pool.Although in a quiet area of Alykes it is only a couple of minutes walk to the very good restaurants and bars and a superb beach.
beautiful
from sarah451
What an absolutely fantastic holiday! I recently went to the clio hotel with my partner and my one year old son. When we arrived the family were so lovely that we all instantly felt at ease. We were given a complimentary drink and shown to our room. The room was lovely with everything you need to have a relaxing break. The beach is to die for with a clear blue sea and beautiful gold sand. My son had a wonderful time as the locals wer all so kind and welcoming. The food was delicious with plenty of amazing places to eat. I...

A great friendly, family-run hotel
from NorthantsOliver
My (now) wife & I stayed in this lovely hotel in 2005 after the original hotel we had booked turned out to be a dump. The hotel is located on the SW side of the salt flats on a quiet back-road about 500m from the centre of the small town of Alykes. The family are very friendly and accommodating and always happy to help. They can organise scooter or car hire for you at very reasonable rates. When we left they gave us a bottle of wine and sent us a Christmas card that year. The rooms are clean, bright and airy over 3 floors. The...

Friendly, family-run Aparthotel in a small, quiet, touristy resort.
from terrym1
The Clio Hotel in Alykes, Zakynthos is a small (20 rooms) aparthotel in a small and quiet, but touristy resort on the North-East coast of the island. The staff are incredibly friendly, and very hospitable. They will welcome you to the hotel with a complimentary drink before showing you to your room. Maybe this is to cushion the blow once you see the room. I stayed with my partner in a studio apartment. It was very small in comparison to some other apartments and hotels I have stayed in elsewhere in Europe. However the room is...

Friendly and Family Run
from jools430
We [me and my husband 48 & 50] stayed for one week at the end of August 2006. On arrival we were greeted with a drink and a friendly smile that lasted throughout the week from all the family at The Clio Hotel. The rooms are comfortable with a small kitchen area that we didn't need to use because the hotel made wonderful Greek salads and other selections. Air con is a must at €45 pw payable to the hotel. Mesh on the doors prevents those nuisance mosquitos getting in. The family take great pride in their hotel by keeping it very clean...

Family run apartments in a quiet location.
from TimmyK
Just arrived back from Alykes on Sunday 9th July. Had a lovely time, staying in the Clio Hotel which is beside the salt flats. The hotel is very clean, quiet location and not too far from the main strip of restaurants, bars and beach (about 800m) or 10 minute stroll. A nice little (about 20 rooms) family run hotel. Vicki and her husband, and father own this hotel. It's clean, quite newly built, pale yellow walls, yellow pvc covered settee in the rooms, great air conditioning, superb idea of putting sliding doors on the balconies...

Friendliest hotel we have been to!!
from A TripAdvisor Member
Me and boyfriend went to Greece for the first time. We had never been on a holiday on our own before this. The location was fab just a stroll to the beach and centre resort perfect for what we like to do. The hotel was lovely! Great Pool Bar and decent sized swimming pool. Lovely spacious rooms with great view onto the hills! We were welcomed straight away by the hotelier offering us a complimentary drink! The whole family were superb, especially when we managed to lock our bathroom door from the outside and not get in, having gone down to...

Lovely people ,.
from issyabby1
My wife and I have just returned from a one week holiday at the above location , and were very impressed with the kindness and of the all family staff nothing being to much of a problem. For us it was the ideal location , being only small (around 20 rooms) and just far enough from the village to walk to . I would add we have no connection with the hotel or it,s people having only met them for the first time , we will be back . Bob and Heather Boon

Well we have found that exclusive place at last, the Clio Hotel on the picturesque Island of Zakynthos (Zante), nestled amongst olive groves and surrounded by lush green scenery in a quiet area of the enchanting resort of Alykes (Salt Flats) at the bottom of the mountains.... more
