A well decorated hotel which transmits an air of elegance.
Pros:

The hotel is in a walking distance to some central attractions. One can reach easily the more modern area of Nicosia, despite the hotel being located in an older quarter. We liked the elegant decoration of the social areas. The breakfast was good as well.

Cons:

The size of the room could be somewhat larger. Was difficult to move around.

Terrible value for money, staff don't know what they're doing, don't stay here.
Pros:

Do not stay here.

Cons:

My room was underground without a view, a cleaner walked in and dropped something at 8am whilst I was sleeping and I wasn’t told about the parking payment. Upon trying to ask for compensation afterwards because the place is TERRIBLE value for money, they admitted to their mistakes and still refused any refund.

Ideal gelegenes kleines Hotel für Sightseeing in Süd- und Nordnikosia
Pros:

Das Hotel liegt gerade noch in der Altstadt von Nikosia, ein großer Parkplatz ist gleich gegenüber. Alle Sehenswürdigkeiten und das Cyprus Museum sind schnell zu Fuß erreichbar. Mit dem Grenzübergang an der Ledrastraße sind auch die Sehenswürdigkeit im Nordteil der Stadt gut zu Fuß zu erreichen.

Cons:

Die städtische Feuerwache liegt gleich gegenüber. Zum Glück gab es aber in der Nacht, nur tagsüber, keinen Einsatz, als wir dort waren.
