Condé Nast Traveler travel magazine has named the 5 best hotels in Cyprus

It is always interesting to know which hotels are in demand among tourists, and even more so among foreigners. The reputable American travel magazine Condé Nast Traveler, which is also called "The Traveler's Bible", has been polling its multi-million audience for 35 years about the best hotels. As a result: travelers share their experiences and hotels win awards.

But, this time the editors of the publication decided to express their opinion on which Cypriot hotels are worthy of the title of the best on the island of Aphrodite. After a long debate, five hotels were included in the list. According to Condé Nast Traveler staff, these are hotels that you will definitely want to return to. Prices for accommodation in them, of course, are not the cheapest, but the level of service and professionalism of the staff at the top. Everything about these hotels is perfect - from the napkins in the restaurant and the scenery from the window to the absolute safety and privacy of the guests.

So, the top 5 best hotels in Cyprus are as follows:
