Hotels in Cyprus are used in their classificationstandard five-point system for determining the level of service for the "stars". Since the island is regarded solely as a holiday destination, it is difficult to find hostels and hotels with one star. All hotels in seaside resorts start from "two stars". And what is higher than five? There are also boutique and apart hotel. Of course, the "star" of a particular hotel depends not only and not so much on the level of service. Here, factors such as location, distance from the sea, availability and quality of the beach play a role. In this article we will consider the best hotels in Cyprus "4 stars". We made a selection using the reviews of Russian tourists. They rated hotels by such parameters as the territory and location, distance from the beach, service, food and animation.
General remarks
Those tourists who used to relax in Egyptor Turkey, it may seem strange that almost all the hotels in Cyprus "4 stars" do not practice the all-inclusive system. Most hotels include only breakfast in the room price. But when ordering a hotel or when settling in, you can arrange for a half-board or three meals a day for a fee. "All inclusive" is not called, but still ... Also Russian tourists noted that the Cypriots do not feel awe of the clients. In shorts can easily not be allowed for dinner, and friendly gatherings in the room can end with a call of the administrator, and even the arrival of the police. Room facilities in four-star hotels can be very different. The reviews speak of both chic apartments and old furniture. But the level of service in all hotels of the island remains at an altitude and meets European standards.
Resort choice
Going to go to Cyprus, does not interfere with the definition ofplace of rest. Many resorts of the island have their own "specialization". Golden youth usually chooses Ayia Napa and Limassol. The local 4-star Cyprus hotels invariably collect the most enthusiastic reviews about animation, entertainment and excellent service. But along with this, some tourists complain about the noise and din in the evenings. Lovers of languid languor settle in the outskirts of Limassol and in Paphos. The reviews mention a high level of comfort. The most budget hotels of the island are concentrated in Larnaca. And families with young children praise hotels in Protaras. There is the most developed infrastructure for children: there are special menus, animations, water parks and so on.
Selection of coasts
A characteristic feature of Cyprus is thatbeaches here are municipal. This means that access to them is absolutely free for everyone. This circumstance can be regarded as a minus (for sun loungers and umbrellas you may be required to pay), and plus (the opportunity to choose the shore to your liking). But some hotels in Cyprus "4 stars" conclude contracts with the municipality to provide their clients with beach accouterments. In this case, sunbeds and umbrellas at the pools on the territory of hotels are always free for guests. The best beaches in Cyprus are in Protoras and Ayia Napa. There is a white and soft sand, with minor impregnations of pebbles. This circumstance makes the resorts very popular. Hotels are advised to reserve rooms in advance. In Larnaca, the sand has a dark color. In Limassol, pebbles are increasingly found. But in Paphos sand is poured, and in the sea at the entrance there are stones.
