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!

It‘s a great hotel but it’s at the extension of the airport, so lots of planes overhead. The breakfast and dinner buffet was very good, with gluten-free options. The staff was absolutely wonderful. The only negativ point is the smoking. Nowadays there should be smoke free areas. It was very disgusting to be constantly enveloped in smoke at the pool.

Would visit again

This is a very nice hotel. Only a few minutes drive from the airport but the airplanes are not bothering you. Nice property with lovely gardens and spacious balconies. The restaurant and the pool area was also nice. Staff was very friendly. The rooms were okey. Beds a bit hard with high pillows and bathrooms a bit small. A close walk to a very nice beach where you can rent sunbeds for a good price. There is also a good restaurant right by the beach. Was good to visit with children.

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

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!

I highly recommend this hotel to stay at Zakynthos! We wanted to save money so we decided to walk there from the airport thought it took one hour. The hotel staff noticed we were tired when we wanted to check in so she gave us orange juice. This made me so happy and that healed our exhaustion ! All the hotel facilities are very good except for wifi! You need to pay if you wanna use wifi in your room. There was a concert of female singer at the bar, which was amazing! I hope that she will sing various songs like ABBA or popular pop songs supported by young people so that we could enjoy more!

I stayed in the middle of August. In conclusion, I'm very satisfied with the very nice staff and the very kind service. The three women at the reception desk were very kind and gave us unreasonable requests and advice. Thanks to them, we were able to rent a car and go to see the nicer scenery. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Also, the facilities are clean, and I think it is a very nice place with a short walk to the beach. Is the shower seawater? I was a little surprised by that, but I was able to adjust the temperature without any problems, and I had a comfortable time. I had a great time with someone singing at the poolside at night. Anyway, everything was perfect. I would definitely like to recommend this hotel.
