We weren't expecting the Petros to be luxurious, its listed as a 3 star, so we thought it would be middle of the road, fairly basic but clean - we were wrong! We were given a room at the front that overlooked a main road it was VERY busy and noisy 24/7. The shower - the rail was rusty and looked like a relic from the 1960's. The curtain served no purpose, the water ran off of it and soaked the floor. The hook that you hang the shower on was old, discoloured and way too high. The door was filthy. The wardrobe - yellowed with age, the drawers were peeling, there wasn't a matching coat hanger to be found. A dirty mark (could be blood, pooh or chocolate) on the door. The dressing table - the drawers were stained and dirty, there was a hair in the drawer and on the stool. There were cobwebs on the wall behind the main door. The curtains were awful. Breakfast was inedible. We're really not too fussy and can usually find something to eat, but when a hotel is serving orange squash as orange juice, you can imagine what the rest of the food was like. After two nights, we felt so disappointed, we'd seen an advert for a studio apartment in town so we booked it and stayed there for the remaining nine nights, it was fabulous! We didn’t inform the hotel management about out complaints, they obviously know these rooms are not fit for purpose, it’s reported on here many times. I did contact Jet2 via Twitter and spoke to a local rep, I informed her of our situation. The website states that the Petros Hotel is "a great choice for couples and families looking for a relaxing break in Zante, with a combination of traditional and modern room types. This maybe the case if you are given a room in the nice new area at the back of the hotel (not that this would improve the breakfast), it certainly wasn't our experience - it is not worthy of a 3-star rating.
