Our stay at Saint Nicolas was fantastic. Every staff member was thoughtful, helpful, and pleasant. Rooms are lovely, location was ideal, and the beach is only steps away from the hotel. Himare was of course wonderful, and Saint Nicolas only enhanced our enjoyment.

This is a new hotel. It was a great two night stay. Since the hotel is around a year old, there are some fit and finish issues that need to still be addressed. For example, several floors had small lips or height changes when transitioning from one section to another, and the roof top area is still under construction, but staff let us know and supplied other value add services to make up for it. The gym was good as well. Breakie was included. We would recommend this hotel.

Although previous reviews have talked about the pool and rooftop bar, the hotel seems to be undergoing a total renovation. There is no more pool or bar, and they are literally still building the rooms on the top floor. Breakfast was only available at the hotel on my second day; the first day I was sent to a restaurant about five minutes away. Although I left a do not disturb sign on my door, someone knocked repeatedly and demanded to come in and check that I had not taken anything from the mini bar. No one came to clean my room, or even to replace the bottle of water that I was given when I checked in. This place is not ready for primetime.

Muito a falar desse hotel, se está em dúvida se vai ficar aqui ou não, como eu estava, não fique! O hotel é maravilhoso, tem tudo que você pode precisar. O quarto é confortável, roupa de cama incrivelmente cheirosa, chuveiro maravilhoso e ar condicionado potente. Deixam água e café (tem cafeteira e cápsulas no quarto) bem como roupão e chinelo. Amenities cheirosos. O rapaz da recepção estacionou nosso carro e nos ajudou com as malas. Assim que chegamos já me senti maravilhada com um cheiro incrível no hotel. Conta com uma piscina que apesar de pequena é muito boa e tem uma vista incrível e no rooftop tem DJ ou música todas as noites. O hotel fica no calçadão da cidade em uma localização privilegiada, na praia em frente tem cadeiras e guarda sol gratuitos, além disso pode pedir pratos e bebidas na praia que será atendido. O café da manhã é o melhor que comi na albânia e todos os atendentes são muito atenciosos e atentos. Pedi ovos fritos bem passados e prontamente me atenderam. A única coisa que me arrependo é de não ter pego um quarto com vista pro mar, seria perfeito!

The St Nicholas is hands down one of the best hotels/resorts I have ever stayed in. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay in Himare was delightful. The front desk staff were wonderful, booking excursions, recommending restaurants, and anticipating every need. The buffet breakfast was absolutely delicious with a huge variety of hot items, local delicacies, baked goods, fresh fruit and high end coffees. The rooftop pool and restaurant provided an exquisite view. The room was large with two balconies and a dreamy bed. The bathroom was huge with a large tub, separate shower and double vanity. We were sad to leave but look forward to returning again soon.

Hotellet var väldigt nytt och det var fortfarande en del småfix som var kvar, exempelvis hade vi ett stort hål i taket inne i badrummet. Det var också många smågrejer som strulade så som nyckelkortet som slutade funka efter varje användning, det luktade väldigt starkt av färg i rummet från ventilationen, vår bil var inparkerad när vi skulle iväg osv. Vi förväntade oss mer av ett 5-stjärnigt hotell.

Nous avons eu une magnifique expérience au Saint Nicolas Hotel, le personnel est très avenant et aimable. Dès notre arrivée, nous avons pu profiter du rooftop avec le coucher de soleil. Les chambres sont magnifiques, nous avons pris une suite vue sur la mer. Malgré un temps maussade le lendemain, nous avons pu profiter de la baignoire vue mer. Le petit déjeuner est très complet. Les massages ont également été très agréable. Merci à toute l'équipe pour ce merveilleux séjour.

Sehr schönes und gepflegtes Hotel. Einzig der Pool hätte etwas sauberer sein können (sehr viele Insekten an einem Tag im Wasser). Trotz Aufforderung des Barpersonals am Pool kam man dem Wunsch nicht nach. Ansonsten waren aber alle Mitarbeiter sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Lage des Hotels ein Traum.
