Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this hotel which had a beautiful location, perfect for those wanting to relax away from the busy center. The rooms were spacious and romantic with a nice four-poster bed. However, the service felt a bit inattentive at times. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, though not without its flaws.
My stay at this hotel was a mixed bag. The rooms were spacious and nice, with lovely views of the pool and gardens, but they could have used a bit more privacy since the walls weren't noise-proof and we also didn’t have housekeeping during our 3 nights. The service was fantastic, with friendly staff who made us feel welcome. However, the dining experience was hit or miss, as breakfast wasn't always fresh. The location was decent, about 15 minutes from midtown, which worked fine for us since we had a car.
This hotel is a perfect retreat if you're looking to unwind in a beautiful and quiet area, with spacious and comfy rooms that really make you feel at home. The staff is friendly and helpful, though I did find some of them a bit unwelcoming at times. The location is convenient if you have a car, letting you explore nearby attractions, but it might be a hassle without one. Dining was fresh and tasty, but could use a bit more variety. Overall, it’s a great value for money, especially considering the comfort offered.
I had a great stay at this hotel, with clean and spacious rooms and a good location not far from the city center. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made the experience more enjoyable. However, the dining options could use some improvement as the breakfast was quite limited. Overall, it provided good value for money despite a few downsides.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is located a short distance from Kyrenia. The rooms were clean and well-equipped, and the staff, especially Meryem, were exceptionally friendly and helpful. However, the dining options were somewhat repetitive after a week, and the hotel felt a bit cold upon arrival, which could be improved. Overall, it's a nice spot for a getaway, offering good value for money, but some minor adjustments would enhance the experience.
