"I cannot sing the praises of the River Suites enough! We had a fantastic week-long stay and everything was perfect. The breakfast was brilliant, bar food was just as good, cocktails were top tier and the pool areas were really quiet, clean and relaxing. Also excellent WiFi wherever you are! Our room led straight out to the smaller pool and it was idyllic.
The hotel is also walkable to Agios Nikolaos in under 30 mins if you take the route along the beach path, so you're close enough to so many...

"The main restaurant buffet had so many choices – Greek, Mediterranean, and even international options. Every meal was a treat, and the quality of the food was consistent throughout our stay."

"The overall comfort, quality and style of accommodation and stunning setting were wonderful. Cleanliness of the whole resort and friendliness of staff were excellent."
"Possibly the nicest hotel I have ever stayed in. The facilities and the grounds are exquisite and the staff are above and beyond. The restaurant serves some of the most delicious food I have ever eaten."
"This is such a brilliant hotel for young families. It’s a really beautiful place with some lovely restaurants, bars & some cute additions like the gelateria & the little on-site kafenio. The staff are brilliant with kids and they’ve thought of everything you need. Malia isn’t the prettiest area, but parts of the Old Town are charming with some lovely, great value restaurants. My only criticism of this hotel how expensive the restaurant are. We chose not to go half board or all-included but I wish we had – I think it would’ve been much better value overall!"
"Should have automatic access to sauna and spa given it’s a spa hotel only access is if you have a treatment for 30 mins and if over they charge you on top of having already paid for a premium treatment "
"Stayed at NIKO for a long weekend in mid October - we had the BEST weather (sunny and warm but not too hot) and really enjoyed our time there. The views are just stunning (definitely recommend sea-view rooms). Great service and attention to detail. Breakfast buffet is excellent and all hotel staff from reception to bar/restaurant are incredibly nice and helpful. Thanks in particular to Manos, the night receptionist for being so helpful and welcoming when I arrived so early in the morning!"
"Excellent place. Amazing food (actually too good). Nice staff.
Only downer is a 100 euro "climate crisis tax" slapped on your bill at the end.
If you're going to obligatorily add 100 euros to a bill. You should say this at the time of booking. When do we draw the line on this?
A "water crisis tax" of 20,000 euros slapped on a check out bill?
I realise it's not all their fault. But more could be done."
"Breakfast was more Holiday Inn express standard
Room faced a busy road and outside entrance so extremely noisy . Not shown on website or when booking.
Rooms were barely serviced
Pools have amazing view but be warned are not heated . Indoor pool is pretty cold also most people got out immediately . Nice sauna though"
"Let’s start with the many positives of this experience:
- location is excellent, a few steps from the beach and with bars and shops on your doorstep
- rooms are very big and have a balcony, good air-conditioning and a safe
- beds are long
- shower pressure is excellent, the olive oil toiletries too
- everything feels very clean and tidy
- the pool area has many sun-beds
- staff is polite and friendly and there is an app to request the time your room is made up
- breakfast and dinner buffet offer good variety, were different every night and included meat fish vegetables and local specialities. Items are constantly replenished and overall I think meals are excellent value
- overall, it’s a very good experience.
The following would require improvement, small adjustments would allow to step up from good to excellent:
- when you book a double, as a couple, you expect a double bed or at least not to have single sheets and single mattress toppers, that leave a gap between you and your partner during the night. We basically slept in separate twin beds for a week. The bed itself is ok but I didn’t enjoy the twin bed set-up or find it relaxing when on holiday with my partner!
- bathroom towels are small and rather thin
- the hotel’s beach has no sun-beds (but the nearby beach does at 7 euros a day)
- no private parking…we had no issues street parking in October but I wonder how busy this may get in peak season
- the coffee from the machine at breakfast could be better.
