In the village of Prodromos, in the Troodos area, the maintenance and renovation of Cyprus' most famous hotel - the 'Berengaria' - is in full swing.
This was announced recently by project manager Andronikos Spirou.
According to him, the historic hotel should be operational by the end of 2027. The first two phases of the project have already been completed. They ran from October 2021 to June 2022 and from April to December 2023. During this time, the developer was able to carry out emergency repairs and preventive maintenance on the site. Specifically,
workers carried out a thorough cleaning and maintenance of the building's stone façade, repaired all damaged joints in the concrete structures both inside and outside the building. They also carried out additional reinforcements. The period from the beginning of 2024 to the end of May was used by the developer to complete all the architectural and structural studies.
We are currently in the third phase of the restoration, which started in June this year and is expected to be completed by May 2025. This will be followed by the final fourth phase, which is scheduled to run from June 2025 to the end of 2027. I would like to point out that all the relevant procedures and works for the complete renovation, which will maintain the protected status of the Berengaria Hotel property, are progressing according to this schedule," said Spirou.
The developer is currently dismantling the existing roof, which covers an area of around 1.5 thousand m2. The plan is to replace it with French-style tiles. This will maintain the general style of the hotel. The third phase also includes the completion of all concrete work inside the building.
Let us remind you that the luxury hotel complex will open its doors under the new name of Berengaria Luxury Boutique Hotel.
After the renovation, the hotel will have 40 rooms, 4 of which will be luxury class. In addition, the hotel complex will include 14 apartments and 12 detached villas, which can be purchased by interested investors and then rented out by the hotel management.
The hotel will be accessed via an upgraded road flanked by magnificent cypress trees. Upon entering the building, the first thing guests will see is the famous central staircase. New lifts will be installed next to the reception area. From the stylish entrance area, guests will be able to access the restaurant, dining room, billiards room and lounge with fireplace and reading room. The old swimming pool will be replaced by a large lounge area overlooking the forest. For the comfort of the guests, the hotel complex will have a luxurious spa area with a large heated swimming pool, gym, yoga room, massage rooms, sauna and Jacuzzi.
