Hotel Doma

Hania


One could imagine Hercule Poirot peering down the curving stairway at Doma, a quiet, century-old classic overlooking the sea in the Halepa district. Decorated with period furnishings and scattered antiquities, this former Austro-Hungarian and British consulate features classy rooms and suites (the top-floor suite comes with incredible views), a relaxing garden, extraordinarily kind service and a tasty buffet breakfast.
