Nirides Hotel Reviews
We emailed to ask for a room with afternoon sun, we got exactly that.
We had a late flight from Cardiff Wales Airport and arrived at 2AM.on the 9th October 2008, we were greeted by a friendly gentleman.
The Hotel generally is very clean and comfortable it has large rooms and balconies, the food was not at all bad, our only minor complaint in the restaurant was that the Greek specialties were pretty much the same on two nights, minced pork mainly otherwise we had some very nice meals and salads for the rest of our stay, it‘s pretty much down to taste I would say. If you are into burgers fish and chips and pizzas then this hotel is not for you.
Breakfast was little repetitive, cereals, two cooked meats, sliced cheese, frankfurters and scrambled/boiled egg most mornings, Greek honey and yogurt to die for though, lots of fresh fruit on offer also.
The pool bar served a variety of snacks, ice-cream, drinks etc. to suit most tastes.
Although Niriides Beach Hotel would be rated 3 stars in most other European Countries, it is a very pleasant clean and friendly place to stay.
Rooms were cleaned every day, Linen and towels changed daily except Sunday, reception, restaurant and corridors were all very clean.
There was no evening entertainment during our stay but this we didn't mind, very relaxing, I think this was mainly down to the fact that the hotel was closing at the end of October as was most of Kolymbia, many shops and bars were closing or closed as we headed home on the 15th.
We were told we were the only British people ever to visit the Niriides Beach Hotel in October, apparently there had only been 6 British throughout summer 2008.
I speak very little German and a few of the hotel guests mainly German, Swiss, Italian and Austrian spoke excellent English so no problem conversing with the guests.
Yes there are a few cracked tiles around and on steps etc. as one reviewer commented. You should expect a couple of cracks on an island which has occasional earthquake activity.
Weather 8th to 15th of October was amazing mostly sunny 24- 25 C in the day and 18-20C at night with light breezes, we only had one thunderstorm at night.
Although we thought the pool and surrounding area could have been better cared for, the sun beds and patio furniture were very comfortable and lots of them, again this did not spoil our enjoyment.
On leaving, our room should have been vacated by 12 noon, we were told by Katerina the receptionist we could keep our room free of charge until 11.30 PM because the hotel was not full and we were also given a voucher for an evening meal because of our late arrival, we missed our meal on the 8th. Fantastic service more than made up for one or two minor complaints.
Would we stay at this hotel in the future most definitely?
