Hotels near Platres Springs, Pano Platres

The Troodos Mountains and the villages in them are among the most beautiful parts of Cyprus. Unfortunately many of these villages are losing their populations as the younger people flock to the cities or go to Greece. The one exception is Kalopanagiotis and the primary reason is the Casale Panayiotis. The owner is a local boy made good who returned to Kalopanagiotis with a determination to save his village. He purchased a number of older buildings in the village and totally upgraded them. He put in a funicular specifically so hotel guests could get to the heart of the village where the hotel is located. Add in some restaurants, bars, swimming pool and spa and you've got a place to stay unlike any other in Cyprus. The views are stupendous and there are many local attractions within walking distance. What really impressed is how modern the interiors are without destroying their architectural integrity. There are also many types of rooms spead over a wide part of the old village centre. The food and wine are exceptional and in line with the quality of this place. Cyprus has many great beach resorts, but for something completely different and relaxing the Casal Panayiotis has them beat in my opinion.

Generally we have enjoyed our stay! Wonderful location, view, many available amenities, deco of the hotel, family atmosphere, friendly staff and food -especially buffet. But the first cold night the heating, that we paid for, was out of service air condition and central. The people that were available to talk to at night in the reception weren't able to help. The next morning they manage to send a technician- that we demanded -and the problem was fixed but nobody came us to discuss any payback to us in any way as it was a lost paid service. Plus, despite that I have booked a room for two adults and two kids, 9-year-old and less than two years,they told me that they could not see that at their system. They said that, they will arrange it. Finally they charged us without any prior notice, despite I have paid online our stay.

Excellent Boutique hotel. Highlights Very warm check in at reception, included a refreshing drink Staff we so nice, very polite and always asking how my stay was and everything was ok. I would say they were an excellent asset to the hotel Food amazing, great value, did not have anything that i did not like All areas are very clean and well maintained For a small establishment there are many spots you can sit, relax and enjoy. Cleaning ladies do a great job, daily cleaning with turn down service in the evenings. They set up a wide screen TV for football lover Breakfast buffet could not fault it, caters for everyone. Finally i have to mention the Potato fries, home made and best i have tasted. Low lights None. Would highly recommend this hotel for couples and families, little gem of a place and i will try and bring my family next time i visit.

The woman at check out wasn't particularly friendly. The bathroom was very very old. Otherwise you have to say the hotel showed itself from a good side. The beds were modern and the fridge worked very well! Outside area and breakfast room seemed very modern. The hotel also had air conditioning. According to the booking information, there shouldn't be air conditioning.

Apart from the absence of parking space everything was fine inside the hotel : cleanliness, customer service, great breakfast... The only negative was a bad experience my wife had at the hotel's Hair salon: very bad treatment from the salon guy! Unacceptable!

We stayed here recently. This is quite a stunning hotel very near to beach & harbour. Splendid location & the hotel is modern whilst still retaining its historical charm. The rooms as beautifully furnished & luckily enough we had a rear side room that was away from a late night club oposite. We had one super interaction with Aggis who served our breakfast on 2 of our days. He was polite, friendly & efficient although on his own with quite a few tables to cover. So thank you Aggis for your kindness. However 2 things that disappointed & unfortunately stops me marking 5/5 Our room had a toilet beyond the shower cubical & you needed to transit the shower area to get to the toilet. Now if someone has had a shower you need to transit a wet area to get to the toilet. Also the screen for the toilet / shower area did not go up to the ceiling so very limited privacy. Not good in my eyes. We were on a b/b package & was told that we could order anything from the menu that had individually priced items for those either on a room only basis or non residents. My wife ordered a second Americano that the receptionist who was doubling as a server deemed we should pay €4 Euros for. My point is is that l could of had anything from the menu & not paid more but have 2 coffees & the hotel wants to squeeze another €4 from you. We paid about €450 for our stay so felt it was penny pinching I paid but was not happy

A great and very stylish new Hotel !!! The receprionist Staff was very friendly and absolutely profesional, treat their customers always with a smile and respect. Guest relation manager (Jamie) will do always his best to assist you !!! As for the location great, no car needed at all, close to all great places to visit by foot !!! Well done to all NYX limassol staff.

The staff are fantastic, all very efficient and friendly; they all do a great job. The swimming pools are very nice, both indoor and outdoor. It is a large resort and it was not full when we visited so it felt peaceful, I am not sure how that would compare to peak season. The main reason for my low rating is that I booked a junior suite months in advance and specifically asked for a quiet room. We were assigned a room above the kitchen (noisy and smelly), next to the tavern restaurant and to the noisy generator/pool engine (or whatever it is, but very noisy all day and night). The window also faced the busy stairs that lead to the restaurant and beach....so not my idea of quiet at all. The decor is dated but that could be acceptable. The bed (king bed made up as two singles pushed together with 2 sets of duvets) had a very uncomfortable mattress and the pillows were lumpy. This is not acceptable in a high starred hotel, in my opinion. When I mentioned this at check out, the lady suggested that next time I book a more expensive suite.... We had one dinner at the restaurant and while the food was good, it was extremely expensive for what if was. Breakfast was good, nothing special. On a bright note they seem to have adopted a large number of cats and they seem to take good care of them.

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.

This is a great hotel! We stayed as a family of 3 and have found it to be very pleasant! Rooms are a fair size and cleaned every day, with fresh linen and towels (apart from Sunday) Good selection of drinks! And the ice creams were nice! Pool area is clean and has everything you need, and we never struggled to find sun loungers (may be a struggle in peak season though) The snack bar was fantastic and the staff were lovely! Infact the majority of staff were very nice and all spoke very good English; Food was OK, not the worst and not the best, the oriental food was beautiful though! Breakfast, not bad, lunch, great (we just used the snack bar which made nice toasties and sandwiches), evening meal, my partner is fussy but I did find it ok, especially the oriental food! Greek night was probably the worst for food, BBQ was ok (bit smoky, bring an inhaler if you’re asthmatic) and we are yet to try the Italian restaurant. Balcony is a little small, nowhere to hang towels/ clothes to dry (definitely bring a travel clothes line with you) We weren’t huge fans of the night time entertainment, some of what we did see was great but some was not so great (however there are plenty of things going on through the day, I think it depends on your personal preference), we just prefer to go and explore the area. We did play bingo a couple of times (top prize money too!) One other thing to note (could be a pro/ con depending) but Limassol itself is absolutely huge, I completely underestimated the size of the place, however there is a regular 10 minute bus service (number 30) but it does get very very busy. (Tip: download the “Moovit” app and it has live bus times/ journey planner) Limassol itself is very spread out (it’s not like some places where everything is on one *****) and it takes around 20 mins by bus to get to the marina and old town. The people here all speak very good English though (even the locals speak to eachother in English) and I found it to be a relatively safe area even at night time. The water park was a great trip out as well, definitely worth going! (Only open Fri-Sun when we went) I wouldn’t return, but again that’s a personal preference and we aren’t people to go to the same place twice. But if you’ve booked this hotel, fear not as it is a decent place and I would rate it 4 stars! If you want a nice 4 star then this is the place!
