Must-see hotels in Cyprus

  • Europa Plaza Hotel

    Nicosia (Lefkosia)

    This salmon-coloured block does a roaring trade with local visitors, and reception goes out of its way to please. Rooms are a good size and decently…

  • Napa Prince

    Agia Napa

    Although a little dated (the sloped facade is retro-tastic), this family-run hotel has squeaky-clean, well-kitted-out apartments that are only a hop, skip…

  • Limanaki Beach

    Agia Napa

    Apart from the weird coloured lighting in the foyer, this hotel smack on the harbour is a decent choice if you want to be in central Agia Napa and have…

  • Green Bungalows

    Agia Napa

    This reveller hang-out has basic studios and apartments with tiled floors, balconies and small kitchenettes. You don’t get much included in the price (air…

    This tidy option has good-sized rooms as well as slightly squashy studios with kitchenettes. It’s very homely and could definitely do with some updating,…

  • Castelli Hotel

    Nicosia (Lefkosia)

    What the Castelli lacks in character, it makes up for with convenience. Good-sized rooms are bland and old-fashioned, with zero style points, but its…

  • Florence Hotel Apartments

    Agia Napa

    Just out of the town centre, Florence has cosy and quiet studios and one-bedroom apartments, with old-fashioned furniture, set around a well-maintained…

  • Altius

    Nicosia (Lefkosia)

    If you like purple you're in luck. This modern hotel goes for minimalism in the rooms but plenty of purple accents add pops of colour. Service is friendly…

  • Lefkara Hotel & Restaurant

    Cyprus

    Right in the centre of Lefkara village, this stone-built hotel is loaded with old-world charm. Rooms are on the spartan side for the price, but service is…

    A solid family-friendly winner. The Okeanos has a great location, within walking distance to everything, and its clean, bright rooms are decked out in a…

    Larnaka

    Right on the seafront, this plush hotel is a favourite with visiting businesspeople. Service is slick, and its contemporary-style rooms all come with…

    Cyprus

    Across the road from Kaplıca Beach, the standard chalets have massive sparsely furnished rooms while, slightly inland, there are pricier options set…

  • Crown Inn

    Nicosia (Lefkosia)

    The tired, dated furniture and furnishings are seriously in need of an update but the Crown's quiet yet central location (a 20-minute stroll from the Old…

  • Club Malibu

    Cyprus

    The simple, bright rooms at this low-rise hotel all come with balconies facing the sea. Although it's painfully overpriced for what's on offer and…

  • Livadhiotis City

    Larnaka

    A stone’s throw from both the Agios Lazaros and the beach, this well-run hotel offers slightly snug rooms with late-retro decor and good amenities. There…

  • Aksaray Pansiyon

    North Nicosia (Lefkoşa)

    The best of North Nicosia's cheapies, the Aksaray has very basic rooms with teensy bathrooms, and a pretty courtyard out the back, shaded by trees…

  • Rimi Hotel

    Nicosia (Lefkosia)

    The small rooms here are on the gloomy side and the furniture is showing a fair slice of wear and tear, but if you're not bothered by style, it's a safe,…

  • Saray Hotel

    North Nicosia (Lefkoşa)

    Fancy a trip back to the early '80s, when swirling patterned carpets, gold braid-trimmed lobby sofas and black lacquered bathroom sinks were all the rage…

    West of Morfou (Güzelyurt) at Gemikonağı (Karavostasi), this midrange hotel is right by the sea and caters mostly for tourists from mainland Turkey. It…

  • Portofino

    Cyprus

    Just outside of the Old Town walls, near the port, Portofino's large, dated rooms may not be the cleanest – and could do with a serious refurbishment –…

  • Güzelyurt Otel

    Cyprus

    If you should find yourself stuck in Morfou for the night, this drab hotel on the edge of town is the only decent accommodation around. Rooms are clean…

  • Petrou Bros

    Larnaka

    The overload of beige is a bit drab but these central apartments offer a good-value deal. Sizeable kitchenettes are well equipped, and the larger…
