Hotel Makarios

Great breakfast location next to the pool, great variety and fresh. Fabulous bartender, Pontos! Helpful front desk, very good location. Transport on public bus not reliable. Hotel had a homey feel to it. Pool is beautiful and well maintained.

I arrived later than expected, but the hotel was still able to accommodate a ride from the airport for me, that was very very nice. The property was very clean and very quiet. Some things were unusual to me like having no shower door! But it makes sense when you see the drain in the floor haha I originally booked the hotel because I liked the use of lime green in the photos, it stood out from the blues and greys and whites of the other hotels. But my bed accents were more of an aqua or teal. It's not a big deal, still pretty. But that is what I liked about it from the photos. It was still a wonderful stay, even though it was short. The staff was very kind and helpful.

I would recommend it to everyone. Very nice stay

Where to start… my honest and comprehensive review of Hotel Makarios where I stayed for a week a few weeks ago. The Good: The rooms are clean, well-equipped, and tidily maintained. The housekeeping team really does an excellent job – everything felt fresh, and the beds were especially comfortable. The location is fairly quiet, though it is directly under the flight path with planes landing nearby. Iys around 10 minutes from the airport in a taxi that will set you back between €30 and €40. That said, it's only about 10–15 minutes on foot away from the lively Kamari beachfront, which is convenient. The Not-So-Good: Unfortunately, there were several areas that needed improvement. The pools were okay – the water appeared green and murky, and the surrounding tiles looked neglected and in need of a deep clean. The poolside toilets, although plentiful, are located underground behind a damaged door. The lighting is so poor that you can barely see anything inside, and there are no signs for gender designation or locks on the stalls, which is a concern. Breakfast was underwhelming. It’s quite limited – occasionally, some bacon and beans, overcooked scrambled eggs, a few pastries, and some scattered continental items. The dining room itself is stiflingly hot, which may be intentional to avoid overcrowding, as none of the windows are opened. The staff do work incredibly hard under these conditions, but it doesn’t make for a pleasant experience. Breakfast is only available from 8–10
