The Classic Hotel Nicosia - Handwritten Collection’

位置很方便，就是不方便停車

Charaktervoll ist es schön, wenn es sich um ein älteres Gebäude handelt, das auf den neuesten Stand gebracht wurde ... Das Frühstück ist das Beste. Große Auswahl an warmen Speisen, Kuchen, Brot, Obst sowie Aufschnitt und Käse im kontinentalen Stil. Wirklich sehr zu empfehlen

Classic is a modest looking low-rise hotel near the center of this very large city. Within a few hundred meters away were the bus terminal, the shopping streets, a catholic church, an orthodox church, one of three ancient gates, and one of the pedestrian border gates to enter the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. One major problem with the hotel are the steps. You go up several steps from outside ground level. Some rooms are raised a few steps higher or lower than lobby level, the rooms are raised a few inches above the corridor level, and from the elevator, you have a slight incline up to get to corridor level. The room is quite small so very little space to open two luggages in the room. What was strange was that the bathroom was unusually large - and we kept thinking that some of the T&B space could have been given to the bedroom area. With all that T&B space, they could have put in a bidet. We didn't appreciate that the closeup mirror was so high - you had to be over six feet tall to use it! There is CNN on the TV, which we appreciated. But for some reason, the remote kept malfunctioning and when we called the technician, he thought it was the TV so we had to reset the switch every so often. The safe also didn't work - the technician couldn't find the solution either. We loved the full length mirror, even though it hand framing. The wall above the headboard was cleverly designed - there was a cute fabric with a photo of wild flowers and there was a light behind the photo so when you turned on the switch, the whole wall came alive with the lighted photo wall. The fightable lamps were very modern and we appreciated the clever design too. There was only one window, which looked into a very small courtyard, and one of the blackout curtains had its ends out from the curtain rack so that needed fixing too. They had a hot water kettle which we used regularly. There were enough outlets. The toiletries were via dispensers, which were classy and actually worked. Breakfast was decent - but no egg station for omelets. They had fish regularly, enough breads, enough veggies, and the usual coffee dispenser. As usual, the breakfast place was a few steps down from lobby level.

When we arrived the reception manager was wonderful and walked us to our room. The room was great, no issues there. Our issue is with the Blue Bar at the hotel. They flat out refused us service because we didn’t have a reservation nor did we want to order food. The reception manager invited us to the bar for an evening of 70’s-90’s music with a DJ. We thought that sounded great and when we arrived to the bar, the bar manager informed us that since we didn’t have the reservation nor did we want food right then, that we would have to sit in the lobby if we wanted rinks. The bar was completely empty while this was going on. I think the “Blue Bar” caters only to locals and could care less about hotel guests. That was strange and very uncomfortable. Or she just didn’t like us. I was even dressed up so it wasn’t our appearance.

Stayed one night. Well located within walking distance of the major sites. Minimal noise from outside. Thin walls - one can hear conversations from other rooms, but fortunately it died down after hours. Clean, reasonably spacious room. Comfortable bed and pillows. Amenities included electric kettle with coffee and tea, and mini fridge. Sufficient number of power outlets, although none by the bed. Tiny bathroom and shower cabin with no shelf space. Good water pressure in the shower. There is one step between bedroom and bathroom, which can be a hazard. Good wifi. Breakfast with good selection. Very helpful and friendly staff (they allowed me to check in at 10:00 without charging extra). Overall a very good value for the price.

I recommend this good hotel, nice service with nice people, nice breakfast, good food, nice rooms. This is a very simple and not pretentious place and affordable fees. I'll come back whithout hesitation.
