The Marelen was perfect for us, the breakfast had many options, the pool bar was top notch service, its location is perfectly between the beach and main road for shops etc. We were visiting for a few days for a wedding so staying in different hotels and multiple people mentioned how they really liked our hotel compared to others in the area - we are hoping to be back for a proper holiday next year!

Hotel is recommended. The hotel staff were all really friendly, rooms were clean and the facilities good. Food options were great with the added bonus of traditional greek dancing at the Eden Cocktail bar. Close to bars and restaurants, and short walk to the beach.

We've just returned home from an absolutely wonderful 10 night stay at this hotel. All of the friendly staff work very hard and nothing was too much trouble. Our room was spacious and very clean and comfortable. There was a great variety of hot and cold food at breakfast, which we enjoyed every day. The hotel grounds and gardens are beautifully well maintained. We also loved the separate pool for adults only, which offered a peaceful retreat. The hotel's location is perfect for access to the nearby beach and the main Kalamaki 'strip', with a great choice of restaurants, bars and supermarkets. We will definitely be back to the Merelen Hotel!

Property had everything we needed. Breakfast was a buffet with 8 large stations (all type of options). 5 minute walk from the beach (no rocks at all and the beach was so shallow you could swing out quite a distance). Cabs were pretty accessible with short wait times, 10 min walk from one of the strips with plenty of restaurant and shopping options. 10 minute cab ride to the airport

Situated nice calm location

Situated nice quiet location with only 2-3 walk from the Kalamaki beach. Hotel was nice and clean and facilities were good. And breakfast and dinner was great. Only thing is that the cocktail bar opens in the evening the cocktail drink were NOT good at all and expensive compared to other places. Think they should just sell alcohols apart from cocktails... But overall I had goodd experience withvthis resort

Staff went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time. Location wise, its close to the airport but there are only a couple planes a day so you rarely hear noise. The breakfast buffet has an amazing selection of food. Very much recommend and would stay there again if I visit Zante again!
