alexandra.familyNov 12, 2024 We stayed at the Leonardo Plaza Cypria Maris for my wedding with a number of our party also staying there. Some of the guests had refurbished rooms on floors 5 & 6 with proper air conditioning which were much nicer (the room I booked for my parents through Expedia). But other rooms did not have sufficient air conditioning and the rooms were too hot because the curtains were not lined and didn't reflect the heat; this Included our Honeymoon Suite which cost a lot of money - you could feel the heat coming through the curtains if you stood a meter away from them. This made it an uncomfortable stay and my bridesmaids and I were uncomfortably hot getting ready the morning of my wedding, we had to get the hotel to bring fans to the room. It also meant we couldn't use the balcony or enjoy the gorgeous view as we had to keep the curtains closed all the time.
The speciality restaurants are excellent, our favourites being the Greek and the Asian. The ladies on floors 3 (Ilina/Irina?) and 6 cleaning our rooms were fantastic too, with beautiful towel art, and helping in any way they could.
The pool shop had everything you could need and at reasonable prices. We loved the chilled prosecco and lemonade that were always available in reception, this was very welcome after a day in the heat. Guest services were very helpful too.
Lovely hotel and great value
Gorgeous location at the sea, lovely food on offer, nice pool area.
kelis.partnerMay 16, 2024 My client really loved this hotel
Hotel lovely but food a joke
The hotel itself is a 4* resort but unfortunately the food can only be classed as 3* at best.
We stayed in the seaview room which had amazing views of the resort and the sea. The room itself was lovely with a large comfortable king bed. The waredrobe needs looking into as the clothes rail is so high i couldn't reach it unless i stood on the bottom of the wardrobe which is not great for safety.
The pool was great if a little cold but what can you expect in April? Lifeguards are on duty from 9.30 - 6pm which is great. Also loved the swim up bar with jacuzzi.
Now onto the food. I have stayed in many all inclusive resorts and i can honestly say the food here was the worst i have had. Breakfast was OK if you like the full english experience. The only fruit they had at any time were cut up oranges and banana which were turning brown at the ends. At other resorts we always have things like melon, berries etc.
The snack bar at lunch was a joke. The burgers and hot dogs were awful. Pizza was inedible with just some conjealed cheese and no flavour. So off to the main restaurant which was not much better. The salads were covered in dressing and the main food was mainly the leftovers from the night before.
Evening was just as bad even the themed nights were just as monotonous with poorly seasoned meats that were so dry they could have been anything.
If they can get the food right this would be such a great resort but such a shame this let it down
Excellent hotel and very friendly staff. Lots todo for kids. Grand children loved the resort. Loved walking along the beach each morning. The food option was great.
petros.familyOct 12, 2023 A wonderful resort that gets it right for inclusive
Amazing food and drink and really good ambience
Plenty of zones to relax or be more active
jason.family_with_childrenOct 02, 2023 Great value for money. Food was excellent. Would definitely stay again.
tunay.partnerSep 17, 2023 All of the staff were tremendously helpful and friendly. The personnel kept the hotel totally dpotless. Sadly the hotel is not eco-friendly and i felt conscious about the overuse of single use plastics, lack of recycling bins etc. The poolside music was a bit too upbeat and loud at times, but overall we had a great stay...
Amazing chilled and relaxing the hotel was clean and everything you would need for a nice holiday. Staff was so friendly polite and helpful food was good and a good choice of different items to eat so could not go hungry. Enjoyed everything about the holiday.
Had a really nice and relaxing mini break at the Leonardo Cypria Bay. The all inclusive is generous, amazing range of foods in the buffet restaurant and freshly prepared snacks in the snack bar. Local drinks are fine, very drinkable and you can upgrade for a small-ish fee if you want more choice. Bedroom was massive! Beds comfortable, good Wi-Fi and air con. Staff are helpful and relaxed - not in your face, but also lots of them around keeping things clean and checking in on you if you need them. Other guests were mainly young families or chilled groups of adults - I found it friendly and welcoming and we weren’t bothered at night with any noise. Would definitely come again and thank you for a lovely break :)
Nice location, close to the airport (20 mins). Food really good, drinks selection less so but it's an all-inclusive, to be expected. Staff really nice and accommodating to any questions
Lovely hotel, but it can get noisy when there are large groups of people staying there ( eg wedding party )
The sound travels up from the lobby bar area up through to the rooms on the galleries.
Great location,food and rooms
We enjoyed staying in this hotel. The food was really nice, drinks too.
The bed is very large and comfy. Nice sea views.
The stuff is super friendly and they made a birthday celebration very special. Thank you.
The pool area was busy and loud as there are speaker for the music everywhere (and different areas play different tunes).
We had a room next to a lift so it was very loud in the evening as guests party in the lobby (also life music) until late.
The kids club is a bit disappointing as it’s indoors only, dark and smelly room. My child was looking forward to it but didn’t like staying in it at all. There could be some program and activities for kids, but they just hang out there without doing anything-Boring.
The hotel Ing wneraly could be more eco friendly as I don’t need my towel changed every day. Also there was a lot of single use plastic cups, paper plates which could be avoided these days.
Overall great place, location and food.
nikolay.family_with_childrenMay 09, 2023 The staff is unique, they are always smiling and always ready to help.
We travel often, but we have never come across such nice staff and so well-intentioned.
Definitely will visit this wonderful place again. By the end, our little daughter was crying and didn't want to leave.
I highly recommend them !
Not up to a 4 star standard!
The room was Ok, but the level of service was poor in the restaurants, which had no character, and resembled canteens.
maxim.partnerMay 07, 2023 Leonardo brand in Cyprus is a guarantee of quality . The hotel is good both couples and for couples with children . The only downsize for summer months is that a beach is not opposite the hotel. But since is the beginning of May it was still cold this was not and an issue
Hotel is located straight on seafront. Grounds are beautiful kept very tidy with plenty sunloungers. All staff members are very attentive and service is great. The only thing that could be improved is dining. Selection for hot food is limited and most of the evenings it gets very busy and noisy in the restaurant.
Overall good hotel, Paphos harbour is about 30-40 min walk using promenade by the sea or 15min by bus.
Good hotel shame about initial glitches
The Leonardo Cypria Bay was a nice hotel but let down when we first arrived. Hotel room was 'as described' as sea view room but the room had the following faults. Shower head rail had broken, wardrobe door off its sliding rails, mini fridge switched off so water dripping out all over drawers below, drawers off their runners so not easy to open without putting them back in. This would have been such an easy thing to fix as always first impressions stay with you. I reported the issues (turned the fridge/freezer back on) and the shower was fixed quite quickly . wardrobe door we put back on runners and the drawers were never really looked at. That being said the hotel was very clean, staff on the whole were very nice, food was good and plenty of drinks to choose from. One thing I wasn't aware of was there are 2 tiers of all inclusive, standard and 'gold', the standard is just local drinks where the gold is all top brands, just worth looking at. Hotel is in a good position with free parking, lovely walk along to Paphos harbour and beyond .
angelica.partnerOct 14, 2022 My only complaint is they do not offer any air port transfer service. You have to book it on your own or hire a taxi. It would be convenient to have an airport shuttle.
3 star hotel , good service/food and clean overall . You get what you pay for ,nothing more nothing less . It is not adults only so book accordingly!
