Centrum

Nicosia (Lefkosia)


Well run and organised, the Centrum has spacious rooms in a brisk business style. All rooms are kitted out with kettles and satellite TVs, and are decorated in beige and blush tones. Rooms at the front have balconies but get street noise. Those at the back are quiet but lack the balcony. State your preference when booking.

Three rooms in the 'traditional wing' sport tall, old-fashioned beds and are more Cypriot in character but are small and slightly dark. The business facilities are excellent, and the restaurant is known for its Cypriot cuisine.
