Great hotel with great staff Location is spot on great mix of people Room spacious and maid service for cleaning fantastic nothing in the hotel too much trouble Shout out to Bar staff stathis and Marcos nothing ever again too much trouble Re work on always helpful courteous and polite See you Oct 2019 😎

The first thing I noticed about the Diana Palace upon arrival was how central in Argassi it was which made me a bit nervous about how noisy it would be at night, but I needn't have worried as our room was very quiet. Sure like any hotel you will hear a bit of noise from surrounding rooms, but nothing from the surrounding town. We were fairly central in the complex so I can't say its the case for all rooms but ours was great. The room itself was quite spacious with a sink and hob unit with a fridge underneath and a nice balcony area overlooking the small pool. Upon our arrival we were led straight to the dining area for a bite to eat as we got there around 9 in the evening and though I think they were closing the restaurant we got a nice meal, before being shown to our room. As for the hotel itself, its nice and spacious with 2 pools with a pool bar beside the main pool, but we found the smaller pool to be quieter, at least for the first week, but more of that later, there is a bar in the reception area and a reasonably large restaurant though you can also eat in an area near the main pool. There is also an entertainment stage for the animation team with its own bar and there are different acts on each evening, the best being a Greek dancing night though this was held by the main pool, and the famous fire dancing. As I said the hotel is in a very central location. As soon as your outside the hotel grounds your right in among the shops and restaurants, and your only a short walk away from Argassi beach, though the beach itself is nothing to write home about, but not to worry as there are buses to all the better beaches on the island. Your also a short bus ride away from Zante town, though you can also walk it in around 20 minutes which I did on the last day, and Argassi itself has plenty of souvenir shops, bars and restaurants, and you can book tours, boat trips and other events from many shops nearby, we went on a boat trip to the blue caves and smugglers beach, and one to turtle island. A few other details about the hotel. Air conditioning is only available at certain times in your room but as we were barely in there it was enough for us. The wi-fi was more than adequate. The food was really nice with plenty of choices at each meal time and plenty of variation throughout the week. The room was cleaned daily with fresh towels each day. The hotel staff were excellent and really friendly with special thanks to Nikos and Dennis. While we were there the main pool got quite busy so you couldn't always get a sun lounger but we preferred the smaller pool which was much quieter and sun loungers were always available. It doesn't have a pool bar but is right next to the animation stage so you can use its bar for cocktails and drinks. You only have a choice of one cocktail each day with full board unless you want to pay extra, but they change each day, and local spirits, wine, beer, soft drinks etc are all available. As I said the small pool was much quieter but this changed during our 2nd week which coincided with the start of the school holidays and the hotel started to fill up with more families and so both of the pools were much busier but we still got a lounger every day. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel for families and anyone really, the staff are friendly and helpful, its right in the centre of town and we had a fantastic time and being July the weather was superb.

Well once again I could not fault Diana Palace and all its staff. My husband & I returned again after 2 years and had a wonderful holiday we could not fault the friendly staff who recognised us from our previous trip, Stathias Marcos Eleanor all fabulous people who go over and above to make your holiday extra special. Our friend travelled with us and it was a separate booking that caused nothing but trouble, but reception were absolutely brilliant and it was all sorted it did take time but the patience and time spent on correcting things was second to none I think most Hotels would not have taken time to deal with it. I would like to thank all the restaurant staff especially the matre de for the lovely cake and the birthday song and best wishes given on my big day. Diana Palace is a lovely place it is spotless the food is fabulous always something nice to eat the accommodation is spotless and anything you need you only need to ask and they will all do there best to accommodate you. Thank you all for another wonderful holiday we will be back again in October so looking forward to that. Happy new year to you all see you October xx
