What they say

Michelin
Suites use local wood and stone, each one different in layout and detail, from hand-carved headboards to private verandas enclosed by herb gardens.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
In the Analiontas countryside outside Nicosia, surrounded by gardens and horse riding trails.
The rooms
Suites look out toward the river or mountains, pairing organic timber and stone with wide verandas opening into garden greenery.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene

Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.

Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
