been going to Kos for many years been at few different hotels and I can truthfully say Niriides is the best yet, location is just a little more out of town than you may think but a pleasant stroll can be there in 40 mins a little longer if you call in at the marina and have a refresher. the rooms are a bit better than the usual greek apts we had b32 had nice views to the left the sea and in the distance the Turkish coast, on the right the mountain, rooms are cleaned daily and fresh towels every other day unless needed sooner. As soon as you arrive you are made very wellcome by Smaro and Stavros (the owners) . the pool is a nice size and has a kids pool, but beware after sitting in the sun the water feels freezing lol poolside has a lot of loungers and as we went in October spoiled for choice although in high season you have little choice first come first served kind of thing there are more over the road on the private beach, part of it sandy ( sand is imported to top it up as needed the ) forward part is shingle would take beach shoes or flip flops, and the sea feels a lot warmer than pool. There is a pool side bar where you can buy food and drink at very good prices, Kyros always smiling (and not a fake smile) who runs it does a great bacon and tomatoe baggi, his breakfasts are really good value and lots of it. for self catering there are 2 super markets close by with lots of choice be it English or Greek food with a smattering of other countries as well prices about the same as

“Relaxing Week”

Stayed for a week in September 2017. Had a one bed apartment in gardens at rear of property number 16.

Stayed for a week in September 2017. Had a one bed apartment in gardens at rear of property number 16. Clean, plenty of self catering utensils, micro wave, fridge with freezer compartment, kettle and toaster. View of the sea between apartments from balcony. Room comfortable with TV. Regularly cleaned each day and towels every other day. Only issue was my wife had uncomfortable mattress. Turned it over and it was fine and drainage drain in toilet smelt (not unusual for Greece). small bath with shower available. Large pool with shallow and deep end. Access by steps only though. Plenty of sunbeds and pool bar serving snacks and drinks. Nick kept us fed and watered with nice complimentary offerings. Only moan was no frozen glasses for beer and some plastic glasses used. Children's pool available with easy access. Thomson advertise this complex as small and friendly but has around 120 units, 73 or so in the hotel and 40 0r so apartments in the grounds. This is the biggest small and friendly we have stayed in and did not get to meet the family that run it as in other small and friendly places we have stayed in. The hotel has a reception, bar , pool table and TV and serves great value breakfast including continental, cereal, yogurt, pancakes, tea, coffee, toast , croissants,fruit, boiled egg, scrambled egg and fried breakfast all for 5 euro per person. Also, nice shower and changing area for late check out. Safety deposit and air con available. There is also a small church on site. 5 tavernas in easy reach of which Blue Ocean and Nestoras are excellent. However, the Snack Bar Harmo next door is a must for breakfast and lunch or just a beer (frozen glasses) or coffee and fresh juices. Michael and his family are excellent hosts and really made us feel welcome. Their hospitality is second to none and the food is excellent especially the Gyros pita rap. There is a beach across the road with a man made sand beach with sunbeds but sea is rocky and beach shoes are needed. Kos Town is about a 25 minute walk but plenty of local buses stop near by or taxis. Be aware that the road that runs past the complex is very busy. There is a cycle/pedestrian pathway on the beach side. Next door is a petrol station with a small mini market and turn left and 500m are larger market and gift shops plus cocktail bar. All in all we had a very relaxing week. However, as I said this is the largest small and friendly Thomson complex we have stayed in and I would imagine that it would be very busy in July / August. .

This hotel is a nice place to stay. Rooms reasonably comfortable, our balcony had 2 soft chairs that was a first! Self catering facilities were a bit limited, could have been laid out so much better . We went early October so pretty quiet but it meant plenty of room at the bar inside the hotel or outside. No breakfast, lunch or dinner served inside whilst we were there, but the snack bar by the pool was open serving English breakfasts, burgers etc. The pool was lovely so much space but I expect at the hight of the season it might be a little different. The rooms were cleaned daily, towels changed after 3 days . Just a couple of minutes walk to the nearest supermarket, man made beach with sand and tavernas. The only drawback was the trek into Kos town,a good 30 minute walk if you wanted a better choice of tavernas or shops..Car rental is recommended or why not try hiring a bicycle as this area of Kos is pretty flat. Overall a pleasant place to stay.
