Hotel Astir Palace in Laganas

Description

Hotel Astir Palace is a four-star property established in 1987 and renovated in 2008, located in Laganas Bay on Zakynthos island. The hotel consists of a main three-story building and a two-story annex, offering 83 rooms with various views including sea, garden, and street. Rooms range from Economy to 1 Bedroom Apartments, many featuring balconies. Facilities include an outdoor freshwater pool, a restaurant, two bars, a conference hall, and a paid internet corner. The hotel also provides amenities such as air conditioning (paid), safety deposit boxes, and parking. Its beachfront location places guests just 50 meters from the sandy public Laganas Beach, though a road separates the hotel from the shore. Children’s facilities include a kids’ pool and playground. While the hotel has a friendly staff and clean environment, reviews note the dated furnishings and limited food variety. Expect a straightforward stay with direct beach access and basic comfort in a lively area known for its natural beauty and turtle nesting spots.

Location

Hotel Astir Palace is situated in the village of Laganas, about 7 km from Zakynthos town and just 3 km from Zakynthos International Airport (ZTH). The hotel is on the first line to Laganas Beach, a public sandy beach extending 9 km, with sunbeds and umbrellas available for rent. Although a road runs between the hotel and the beach, the proximity allows easy access to the shore. The location provides a balance between closeness to the town’s nightlife and a quieter beachfront environment. Nearby attractions include the famous turtle nesting area in Laganas Bay. Guests will find multiple restaurants and bars within walking distance, alongside the hotel’s own restaurant and two bars.
