Hotel berhampiran My Lovely Accessories & Shoes, Nicosia

Very nice boutique hotel in the old town of Nicosia, close to Ledra Street and shops, restaurants and bars. Parking at D’Avila Bastion is 1 min walk and the hotel is very easy to get to. Bed was very comfortable and the bathroom/shower was spacious and had everything needed. Towels were lovely and fluffy. The room was very nicely decorated and although the lighting was modern and added to the ambiance of the room, it was a bit too dark for us. Coffee machine was also a nice touch. Staff were friendly and welcoming. As this is an old building which has been renovated beautifully, there is no lift. Rooms are on the first floor.

We stayed in this hotel and we really liked that it was modern and the rooms were spacious and clean with a kitchenette, but unfortunately we can’t recommend it and wouldn’t stay there again because the so called “breakfast” is nothing but a mockery, which is put in a carrier bag and hanged on your door knob in the morning. The location is ok, about 30 minutes walking distance from the main tourist attractions of Nicosia.

We stayed here in jan after a busy day shopping the apartment was lovely very well finished there are a few things missing receptionist was really helpful and so friendly we didn’t make to see the pool or gym!! Just a heads up tho we tried to cook while there and not a lot utensils to cook so found it quite hard to Evan cook breakfast!! Parking is very tight especially as there was a portable loo taking up most of the space there was only our car and another so and that was it full try reverse in so it’s easy to get!

The hotel is modern and has stylish rooms! Amazing view from the balcony, nice breakfast and very friendly staff. The rooftop bar has an even better view of the city and nice atmosphere. It's a short walk from the center of Nicosia, so you are close to everything. We totally recommend it, you won't regret it!!

A few challenges with this hotel ie aircon, bugs, slow drainage in bath, slow lifts, parking etc - but this is all the Cyprus experience. Special mention to Alexi, Sylvia and Michalis who were the cheeriest and most helpful souls. Thank you. If you want a Cyprus experience, stay there - if you want no challenges or character, stay at the Hilton. It is a bit away from shops, bars etc so get organised with water, snacks and any other liquid refreshments you may like. Enjoyed the stay and based on the expectations as above, would recommend for price. Thank you x

Pros - Location - Spa - Roof top pool - Food Hotel within easy distance to harbour, bars,shops, and local transport. Rooms spacious and very clean. Cons - busy road opposite two petrol stations and traffic heavy all day. Staff on reception not helpful or accommodating. There is no air conditioning and our room on arrival at midnight was 26.5°. We couldn't believe it and had to insist on two fans that we left on permanently all night and the day when we were in the room. Some of the electric sockets and plugs had loose wiring so we had to keep reporting faults. Our main complaint was the heavy smell of petrol that we assumed came from the petrol station. When we phoned reception to request a move to another room we were told there were no more twin bedded rooms available but for what is classified as a five star hotel, I'm sure they could have accommodated us. The stench was overwhelming. Finally after calling in one of the cleaners she indicated it wasn't the petrol stations but the drain in the shower that she would clean out. That evening on returning to the room, the smell had gone. However next morning it started to seep in again. We called in another cleaner and pointed out the stench and showed her the sockets that didn't work. She said leave it to me and that night everything was fixed but we only had two nights left of our holiday. The cleaner's name was Hava and I would like to commend her to the hotel management. Our conversation was done though my translation app and sign language. In spite of everything we enjoyed our stay as the pros outweighed the cons. Would not stay at this hotel again until it is modernised. The summer months must be unbearable.
