Hi,
We are staying at the Zorba apartments in AP, 3rd July, for the first time (normally stay at Green Park) and I just wondered if anyone has stayed there before and just how bad the hill is?

I keep reading different reviews on the hill to Zorba's, some say its fine and others say its really steep!! Rolling Eyes

Thanks in advance xx

Hi, the hill up to Zorbas is steep but made of concrete & as long as you don't try to run up it then you'll be at the top before you know it. It only takes a couple of minutes. It is not really as bad as it looks. Although we don't stay there, our friends always do so we have walked up to Zorbas many a time to meet them. Frank manages it OK & he is about 150 years old. Mindst you, he usually has one of those little bottles of Tsipouro first then flies up faster than an MP trying to get his expenses in before they change the system!!

The hill is a piece of cake going up at night after a few biros and vinos = a different kettle coming down in stupid shoes, takes a couple of minutes even for an unfit old bird like me. No problem.
