We stayed 3 nights at Melas Hotel. We had a seaview room that has a spectacular view of the sunrise directly in front of our balcony (see pic). The rooms... read more are very clean, air conditioned, large balcony, and have all the amenities needed. But the best part of this great place was the family that run it. They are extremely helpful, and make sure you have anything you need. They ask if there was anything we need and when we
had any questions about places to visit, George and Melas were extremely helpful. Unlike other bigger hotels, this one had a warm and welcoming feel to it from start to end of our stay. If or when I come back to Agios Nikolaos, I will definitely be staying at Melas, and if I am not able to get a room because of availability, I will definitely be dropping past to say hello to this beautiful family!!!

  We stayed at these family run apartments for two weeks in August and highly recommend the place.

The apartments are just a few minutes out of the... read more main town of Agios Nikolaos on the main road, which means rooms at the front have a spectacular unhindered view across the whole bay. Our room was large, bright and cheerful, and the double-glazing keeps noise from outside to a minimum. Some improvements could be made (larger shower area, more storage space), but these modernisations are being done bit by bit.

There's a small beach opposite, and the apartments are very close to plenty of good bars and cafes - Toedeleokie cafe is great, and To Pareaki restaurant is one of the best. The location also makes it easy to take a stroll down to some of the other great restaurants at the other end of the bay, away from Agios Nikolaos main town.

The best thing of all though are the owners - George and his mother are extremely hospitable and accommodating, and they'll do anything for you to ensure your utmost comfort.

  The apartment was beautiful and clean with a balcony overlooking the sea. Warm welcome and you find everything you need, or might need. Nothing is too much trouble. Lifts to... read more the road so no trailing heavy cases up the stairs. I would highly recommend the apartments as a home from home whilst on holiday.

  Very nice place with a great sea view. Friendly staff, very clean rooms. 3 minutes walk from the nearest beach. Highly recommended for a 1-2 weeks vacation. City center is... read more just 10 minutes walk, all nice restaurants, shopping places and discoes are there.

We really enjoyed it and will, definitely, come back!

  We spent 7 nights at Melas Apartments from 17-24 June this year. Our room (5) was on the second floor with a sea view...and what a view! With the French... read more windows wide open you could see the whole bay and the wonderful blue of the Aegean was quite mesmerising from dawn to the early hours of the night. The room was relatively simple but very clean. Not much provision for hanging or storing clothes,although the room itself was spacious so we left a few stacks of clothes on chairs. No great hardship on what was basically a beach holiday. The daily rate was very reasonable so we weren't expecting luxury. Ionna,the owner,was very helpful and changed the sheets and towels a couple of times during the week. The location is just a few minutes walk from the town centre and a 5 minute bus or car ride from our favourite Havania Beach which is mainly frequented by charming Greek couples and families of all ages.We will definitely return to Melas when in Ag Nik again. The only disadvantage we found was the noise from the road between the apartments and the sea if the windows were left open at night. However,the double glazing cuts out this noise and the rooms do have air conditioning. We found that we did get used to the sound of the traffic below and thought that the view alone made Melas a very good choice for us.
