The hotel is very clean, the area is nice, you have a bus station to Chania 3 mins away from the hotel. Did not try the nearby restaurants but you have a couple of options from what I’ve seen. The only complaint would be that you need mobile data since the Wi-Fi is very slow, but mobile data has good speed so I didn’t mind.

If you're booking through Expedia this will be your room. It's the worst room there; staff service room next door, there's an unbalanced washing machine in a niche and Everytime it goes through the spin cycle you'll hear it. Motor for fridge and AC labor loudly. An alarm goes off between 3:30-4:30 both am & pm. Housekeeping is aggressive and will bang (not knocking) on your door - cleaning in their schedule only. The beach toys are outside the door so high traffic area. WiFi out 2 days, 3 nights loud parties til 3am - rabid desk staff. Nauseous that I wasted 1000€ on this place. Transportation arranged by hotel unreliable. Was left at port to figure it out for myself then unreasonably berated by desk staff. When staff demonstrates irrational behavior, I'm not comfortable with staff entering my room bcuz you never know what passive aggressive things they might do to your stuff. Staff says only one bus, actually 4. None convienant for a busy schedule. Taxis unreliable & overcharge. Hotel is in bad location for tourism. If you're just going to let on beach, maybe okay but if you want to tour...not. much better hotel just next door.

Fantastic stay for us overall at Nirris hotel. Clean comfortable rooms at a very affordable price. Great location within walking distance of great food, beaches and shopping. We organized a shuttle with George and despite it being late in the evening he was able to collect us and provide a wealth of knowledge about the area and activities. The staff was friendly and attentive. Overall great value for our stay. Would stay here again if I am ever back in the area.

Friendly and helpful reception, very clean, good location, only a short walk to the beach. Unfortuntely, thin walls, not ideal for light sleepers. But for more space and privacy you have to pay more, for the rate I paid it was adequate. Definitely recommendable.

Fantastic location! It is 5 min walk from three really nice beaches. Close to two bus stops and two supermarkets. too many restaurants to count. Basic accommodation for North American standards but an unbelievable value for money. Globe-trotter dream! Only two hours drive from Knossos palace and a world class archeological museum.

Fantastic stay!

This place is amazing! The brothers at the front desk had so much useful information to provide about the area and everything. I really felt welcomed. The room was in perfect condition and looked like it was recently renovated. Best of all it was quiet! The location was perfect near the beaches, bus, awesome park for running and chilling and a lot of shops and restaurants. They sent an email right after I booked with super useful information on how to cheaply use public transport to get to the hotel from the airport or set up transfers as well. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely stay here again.

Just back from a 9 night stay at Niriis Hotel in Apostoloi, and I am pleased to say I, and my daughter, had a fabulous time there. The room was exactly as the photos depicted and the service from all staff members was top class. They gave us valuable info on where to go and what to do in the area and arranged our trip to the Samaria Gorge - just one of the highlights of our visit! The hotel is 2 minutes away from 3 beaches and there are several tavernas and mini markets close by. There is also a regular bus into Chania which is only 10/15 minutes away. I would definitely recommend Niriis Hotel for its location, standard of accommodation and service provided. Thank you for a great stay George. This was our first visit to Crete, but I know it won’t be our last !

Lovely, comfy rooms with everything you need

We stayed for 4 nights in early July. The location is great, in amongst low rise apartments and tavernas, leafy green and quiet, away from busier main road near the beaches. Balcony with pleasant view and well equipped kitchenette/dining area plus TV showing World Cup! Staff very helpful and informative. Did our laundry for €5 as we’re travelling for a while. Overall fantastic value for money.

Good experience for what we paid for

Nice spacious place! Kitchenette was good too. Noisy at night and we had to pay for air conditioning. 1 kilowatt is 1 euro. Location is decent, about a 15 minute bus ride (1.50 per person each way) to Chania. But also a 3 minute walk to a really nice beach with hiking paths to other beaches, lots of cool coves and cliffs and super warm water even in the end I September. Supermarket about 15 minute walk away. The stay was what you would expect for the price and we were happy!
