Best Hotels in Pano Platres

Went 30 December 2022 to spent the last couple of days of the year in what it supposed to be a cosy mountainous hotel set up. It was just that. A cosy refurbished old hotel in the middle of a forest, a short walking distance from Platres village. There is a huge history concerning the role the hotel played as the place for the rich and famous in the early 20th century until the end of the 80's. Royals, movie stars and wealthy individuals stayed at the hotel, photos of which are everywhere. The room was clean, the temperature was perfect and everything worked just fine. The a la cart menu offers few choices, but the food quality was above average to our satisfaction. Not expensive as well. The wine list was short and was focused to local wineries from which there was a handful of worth to try (if you are familiar with the local varieties or if you can get help from the head waiter). Excellent service at the restaurant, smiling faces everywhere and helpful staff in every corner. Taking under consideration the fact that is a facility deep in the forest, old and with a well established mountainous character, it is unfair to judge the simplicity of the design or the lack of 5 modern star building materials. You get what you pay and that is not a high end 21st century super luxury hotel. There is of course room for improvement starting from the unacceptable condition of the private road when you enter the gates heading upwards for the Hotel (about 4 hundred meters). It's totally destroyed and no maintenance have been taken place for decades. There is no lighting to help you avoid the holes so if you are not cautious your car might end up with some kind of damage. If this piece of road is part of the land that belongs to the hotel , then this is totally unacceptable. Generally though a good experience.

Great service from all the staff - reception/lobby, breakfast room, housekeeping, spa/hairdressing, bar/room service. Liked the location. Days off - two 'city bicycle' hire stands (Nextbike by Tier) nearby gave me the wheels to explore old town and surroundings. On remote working days - Walking distance to a great little vegan food van, organic supermarket and Bobo pops (ice cream), walks were welcome breaks from the laptop. Room impeccably clean and very comfortable, north facing room on 4th floor had a pleasant city/mountains view. Mini fridge was great for keeping snacks (and sundowners!) cool. WiFi worked well, I remote worked with it, without any problems, for over two weeks. The desk and chair were comfortable and there were enough well located plugs - and the blurred Zoom background looked professional (although it was the bed/headboard!). Breakfast was excellent, usual hot/cold stuff plus lots of fruit and 'Cypriot table' with interesting things to try out (sweet pickled walnuts, tahini cake, olives - yum). Miss the yoghurt already - with walnuts or almonds, goji berries, chia seeds etc. Free car parking on site was available, discovered a minor overnight scratch on my vehicle on the last morning but luckily had taken a zero excess insurance policy for falling rocks at Troodos mountains. Spa and hairdressing treatments were reasonably priced and available at short(ish) notice, at least now, during the 'off-season'. Had a haircut and four massage treatments, great way to relax after the remote work days when my time off was more limited. So all in all: a really pleasant stay - thank you Ajax!

Brand new and spacious 5-star hotel. Huge rooms equipped with all comforts, swimming pools as far as the eye can see, Spa & Fitness with gym, swimming pool, saunas and treatments. Infinite meeting spaces beyond imagination. Very kind staff with a special mention to Nermine, always friendly, professional and competent. Very high level services with restaurants where you can taste excellent local and international cuisine. Added to this is the internal shopping centre, the ****** and the Greek amphitheater with shows. A place to enjoy a comfortable and pampered holiday.

Stayed for 4 nights on a golf trip with 3 friends September 2023, also stayed here with friend September 2022. Let's talk value for money - 10/10 Staff - 10/10 Accommodation - basic but very, very clean, no TV but wireless worked fine in the room I had, 9/10 Food - we were B&B only but the choice was outstanding, loved the porridge. 9/10 (Buffet style trays needed replenishing a bit quicker, but very rarely) Bar - good choice but no Guinness, (not a lager drinker), so 9/10 Add a pool, pool table, free entertainment, pleasant & manicured gardens with s shop on-site this is a 3 star hotel than punched well above its weight. I have no hesitation of returning or recommending to other.

First time in Cyprus, I never wanted to come again. It's desolate, nothing fun, the seaside is okay, the commercial street is poor. Talk about the hotel, because it is close to the customer, so book this hotel, although not at the beach. But the distance is also very close, walking about 2 kilometers to the seaside tourist area. The hotel is ok, but it should be soon after the renovation, the room smells a little, I am sensitive to the smell, so I opened the window to sleep. No food around the hotel, only a supermarket. Ice cream shop. The hotel is nice and clean. The network is average, and the signal on the bed is very poor, even Ctrip cannot open it. Breakfast is good, everything, can meet nutritional needs. If you go to the airport, you can ask the hotel to call travel express for 13 euros. Pick up at the hotel and then take you to the airport. Otherwise, take a taxi for 10 euros to the station, and the bus costs 9 euros, which is very frustrating. Try to live in high floors and have a good view.

The hotel is located on the promenade in Limassol although not very close to the marina area near which all the activity centers in the evening are located. At the same time, there is a convenient bus line No. 30 that travels along the entire boardwalk and is easy to get to the marina and reaches the final stop at the mall in the port area a little outside the city. Back on the same route. There is no reality in this mall and in Cyprus in general. The hotel is located right on the waterfront, there is a pool for adults, a pool for children and a pool for toddlers and an indoor pool where the water is too cold and there is also an air conditioner. At the entrance to the sea there are small and large stones and for those who are not used to it, it hurts and you can get injured. Therefore, it is recommended to wear rubber shoes or enter the water on top of the plastic dock that reaches deep. Arriving at the hotel in Larnaca is possible by taxi which costs about 50 euros. The most economical way is to take the shuttle bus which costs 10 euros per person, less for a child. Buyer's card in the archway near the exit of the terminal on the left. Get off at its first stop in Limassol called St. Raphael and from there take bus line 30 with a journey of at least 10 stops. Costs 1.5 euros, pay the driver. Get off in front of the entrance to the restaurant called ”The Garden” in English, ask the driver. Continue walking about 40 meters and turn left in the alley leading to the hotel, there is a sign. The hotel looks nice mainly in the public areas, lobby. The rooms are smaller, simple and understated furniture, nothing fancy. The safe could not be opened, maybe for a fee. There is a kettle with coffee. small fridge. Wired internet computer connection, for a fee. The breakfast is fine, no changes. There is what is needed for the Israeli menu, I was missing white Greek cheeses and types of pastries. The hotel is suitable for adults, couples and those who want peace because there is not much to do in it and in the area, apart from relaxing and swimming in the sea or the pool. The hotel has breakfast and it is also possible to pay lunch for 23 euros and dinner for 28 euros, not including drinks. free water Returning to the field in Larnaca is possible by the same route, line 30 to St. Rafael and from there the shuttle to the airport. There is no reality in duty free there, the price is the same as abroad and in Israel.

The rooms already seem tired and ask for renovation. Construction has also begun right next to the hotel - noise and dust in the rooms overlooking the sea. Now it's a view of the construction site.

The hotel was built a long time ago, it doesn’t look very straight from the outside, but the rooms are reinvigorated, the carpet in the corridors is new and not worn, there are magnetic locks on the doors. But honestly, the hotel does not pull 5 *. What did you like: - welcome bottle of wine and apples - chocolates on the bed every night - change of towels throughout the day - good shampoos Did not like: - an outsider can calmly come in for breakfast and no one will ask where he is from, and they will politely take him to a table at (because our friend just came, had breakfast and went to the beach) - the construction site is near and it’s not said anywhere, but there is noise from it - the floor in the rooms must be requested to wash - the beach is dirty, full of cigarette butts - weak animation - if you do not live on all inclusive conditions, then in a cafe on the beach the average cost of a meal is 8 euros, coffee 4 euros, smoothies - 6 euros. But for all inclusive there are restrictions - 2 naptanv a day per person - modest territory, nowhere to walk - the hotel in the distance is both plus and minus, quiet and there are no engines, but because there are only 3 restaurants nearby, and a taxi is expensive, about 1 euro km, even more expensive in the evening, you have to go there - there is no supermarket nearby, only a minimarket where you can buy something on the little things
