Hotel Niriides Beach in Kolimbia

I had a wonderful stay at Niriides Beach Hotel in Rhodes. The staff are very friendly and always ready to help, which makes you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. The hotel is clean and well looked after, with comfortable rooms and nice balconies to relax on.

Well depends what you expecting but for me. Room were good enough only bed was little annoying becausethey are two bed together and it were spectating once you move so u got gap between beds other than that good enough( anyway you need bed toilet shower that's it ) room clean every day nice staff. Guys in kitchen amazing food good service and Nicolas funny energy bartender. Place is nice I had checkout at 11:00 and had to stay there till 20:25. You got showers and towel while you been checkout so is good ... area is good to next door My car rental amazing rental company highly recommended!! Enjoyed my stay !!

Amazing stay!
Not expensive and with a great location near the beach and quiet kolymbia for restful nights (there are still plenty of bars and shops open late) but also equal travel by bus to Rhodes town or Lindos so easy to get around.

The rooms are basic but modern and for a weeks stay you don’t need anything else as you just use it to sleep and shower.

Food was very good, I am vegan and found lovely different options every day so if you’re not then there is definitely plenty for you.
I’m not sure why people are saying the drinks are watered down as every drink I had was very very strong compared to what I’m used to as a British guy in his 20s. Pouring half the glass with the spirits!
The staff are all so friendly and nice, on our last day we checked out at 11 but our flight wasn’t until midnight so they let us still use all the hotel facilities including drinks and food. They didn’t treat you like someone they had to impress though, it was very down to earth and friendly

There are lockers to store your belongings on your last day as well but also storage space that’s free so lots of options.

I’d definitely stay here again and it’s easily the best place I have stayed.

Awesome Hotel would stay here again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Overview
We stayed at the hotel for 7 nights and the whole experience has been great! From the food to the views and even the pools it’s been such a nice relaxing stay. However there are a couple of things that didn’t quite bring me to give 5 stars which I’ll explain below.

Pools
So starting with the pools as you’ll see from all of the photos that they advertise, the pools look stunning almost like infinity pools! When we stayed which was October, the pool temperature was ambient so mighty chilly with my watch indicating water temp as low as 19°C but as I mentioned we were also in October so this is to be expected. And to add, I believe this is a summer only hotel that closes for the winter so I’m sure it’s normally warmer in Greece’s summer! Lovely way to cool off in a cold water plunge though!

Although the pools look amazing you can clearly see the hotel has had an expansion and the expansion bit (where the infinity type pools are) is where the money has been spent. The older pool is looking a little tired and in need of an upgrade. Luckily they have 4 to choose from!

Rooms
We stayed in the actual hotel building itself, sadly not the fancy pool rooms which look like they have upgraded rooms. Our room was in the main building which was clearly two separate accommodation rooms before and has been adapted to now be one. You can see this from the two bathrooms (either end) and the duplicated sockets along with the duplicated balconies and duplicated lights on one of the joining walls.

The overall room size was great but the downsides were poor drainage in the bathroom, meaning it floods every time you shower & the bed’s were rock hard annoyingly giving me a back ache most mornings.

But apart from that, very nice size, just a shame it’s not the same experience as you’d get over on the nicer side where you can clearly see a lot of the money has been spent.

I should also add this could have been on TUI’s side where we booked, it didn’t show us different levels of rooms or ones with pool views etc so could be the 3rd party booking experience. Luckily we spent most of the time at the pool so not the end of the world.

Food
As an All-Inclusive resort, food was lovely! My partner wishes there was more of a selection but I found the selection was very good. The actual food hall is fairly small, no problem for an October holiday. I do question though how busy this might be in the summer months and how hectic it is then but during our stay it was great with no wait times.

We also got the opportunity to experience Halloween here where the hotel went “all out” on everything Halloween. Honestly I’ve never seen a hotel go that far with their Halloween decorations just for one night. From food to converting the entire food area, staff costumes and more into a spooky experience for just one night.

Price / Location
We booked through TUI at what I thought was fairly reasonable with an All-Inclusive Package. We went on several walks around the area and into Kos (40 min walk from the hotel) to explore and saw alternative hotels but they were more of a city hotel so didn’t have the multiple pools that Niriides Hotel has.
So for the money I think it’s pretty good! They also do have evening entertainment, apparently won loads of awards but it just isn’t our thing so didn’t attend any of them.

Summary
So in short, lovely hotel probably one of the nicest in the area. Staff were all very friendly and always going above and beyond to help. I would probably advise to check how busy it might be during the summer but for us it was very relaxing and peaceful and if you’re visiting when the temperature is around 23° be mindful the pool is shall we say refreshing!
