L'hotel est très chic, les chambres sont spacieuses et bien équipées. Il faut savoir que le sèche cheveux est dans un tiroir et non pas dans la salle de bain. Le buffet est très bien garni. Le parking sous l'hotel est très limité, mais il y en a un autre un peu plus loin.

Das Personal war sehr freundlich, die Zimmer wirkte luxuriös, für unseren Geschmack waren die Betten zu warm, die Matratze sehr weich. Das Frühstück war umfangreich, aber von einfacher Qualität vor allem die Qualität des Kaffees müsste verbessert werden, alles nur Instant Produkte. Leider war es während unseres Aufenthaltes sehr laut wegen einer gegenüberliegenden Baustelle. Der Weg zur Innenstadt war fußläufig in weniger als 30 Minuten zu erreichen. Parkplätze auf der Straße waren ausreichend vorhanden.

If I could give a higher score , I would. The minute I walked in service came to me. Never had to ask for anything as the staff were pro active, courteous and always willing to assist. The room was clean and had all the necessities. There was parking in the hotel.Breakfast was also great. I highly recommend this hotel and I would book there again if in Nicosia.

We found the Semeli hotel perfect for our visit to Cyprus. We had a warm welcome from the staff. We were initially put in a room with a double bed but at our request were quickly moved to a twin bed room with a lovely balcony. We found the 20 minute walk into the historic centre very easy. The room was clean and warm with a fantastic shower and bath. Breakfast was plentiful and varied, although the toaster was not easy to use. One evening we shared a cheese and charcuterie platter in the bar, which was absolutely delicious.

Poor condition. Old and smelly hotel. Shower was horrible. So cramped we couldn’t move around the room. Bed was dingey so I slept on top of the sheets as didn’t want to risk it. Was like a hotel stuck in the1970s. Probably worst hotel I’ve stayed in ever. Certainly not a 170 euros per night hotel. Checked out early at 7am next morning at earliest opportunity and went to a much nicer hotel. Would definitely not recommend

One of the highest levels of cleanliness I experienced at a hotel - deserves 10 stars. Service also should get a 10 star rating. Nice and convenient for everything in Nicosia and close to the highway to get quick access to the other cities. Alexia on reception is particularly polite and super helpful. The place is a gem.

The suites are in a separate building but only a couple of mins walk and the staff will transfer all your luggage if you require. The suites are very spacious and everything you could require has been though of. A big thank you for the suprise birthday cake!
