Grecian Park Hotel

We had an excellent stay at Grecian park. We got married there and everything ran smoothly. As soon as we got there we had a meeting with the hotel manager who sorted everything out for us...meals, venues etc.
I would definitely recommend it if anybody is thinking of getting wed abroad. It was completely stress free for me! The cleaning staff were fantastic and so efficient.
The food around the pool was lovely too. Wasn’t the cheapest but the portions were huge so were enough for 2 anyway. This is the first 5 star property we have stayed in and was everything we expected and more. They even brought freezing towels round as we were sunbathing!
It was my birthday whilst we were away too and I came in one morning to find a huge chocolate cake as a gift from the hotel!
The hotel is quite out of the way, being young ones we liked to go to Ayia Napa, but the bus service during the day was very regular and only 80cents.on a night I would recommend taxi though as sometimes it was a very long wait.
Taxis were about 7to8 pounds. Overall it was very brilliant and we will definitely be returning maybe for our first anniversary!

This was the first time we had been back to Cyprus in over 10 years and we were not disappointed. The Grecian Park is excellent value for money for a 5 Star hotel.
You would pay a lot more in other resorts for this first class standard of accommodation.
The rooms were clean & bright and the electric blind was great at keeping the sun out. We paid extra for a sea view which was well worth it as we spent many happy moments watching beautiful yachts sail in and out of Kinnos Bay. We had wanted champagne & strawberries on the balcony watching the sun set but three days in a row the kitchen had run out of strawberries so book early to avoid disappointment.
We often took lunch by the pool (remember to share as the portions were huge) and were impressed by the frozen face towels they bring round at 2.15pm to cool you down. The walk to the beach is very steep but well worth it and excellent if you like to snorkel. The beach and hotel does get busier at the weekends as a lot of locals visit the health & nightclub.
There was a wedding every day of our stay but this does not interfere with your holiday, if anything it’s great to see which bride looks the best!
The cliff top bar was a lovely way to end the evening with a cocktail.
The only criticism of the hotel was that the entertainment was rather poor and the main restaurant was a bit over the top for my liking. As soon as you put your glass or cutlery down a waiter was hovering at your side. Some people love this but I prefer a slightly more relaxed environment, notwithstanding the food was excellent.
We tried several restaurants outside the hotel; the Italian opposite was good as was Spartiartis next door to the hotel. This was frequented by lots of locals and the variety of fish was great. We also tried the steak house at the bottom of the hill which was very cheap (ideal if you’re on a budget) with lots of 3 course set meals for CYP7.
We used the hotel shuttle bus (always on time) into Ayia Napa and had a great meal at Castello opposite Napa Plaza. Sage also had a great menu.
Over all this was a great holiday and I would definitely recommend this hotel to people of all ages.

We arrived at the hotel in the early hours of the morning, that’s myself my daughter and my mum.
The hotel was stunning from the outside even in the dark, and the lobby was just as breathtaking, we were all quite tired so we checked in and went to our room which was very nice and the beds were very comfortable even the bed my daughter slept on (she slept very well). The rooms were cleaned very well every day, with clean towels and bed linen.
We all woke quite early, so on went the kettle for a nice cup of tea which was kept well stocked for our stay, then we opened the blind for a look and is was lovely we had a side view room which had a sea view, but if you paid a bit more you could have a room which overlooked the pool and the beach which had a fantastic view.
We got ready and went for breakfast the choice you had was great, you could have a three course breakfast if you could eat that much! After we collected our towels and headed for the pool which was very clean and VERY COLD but after my daughter begging me to go in for a swim I did, and it was lovely a very nice way to cool down.
We had lunch at the pool bar most days and it was great the salads are definitely a must and the toasted sandwiches were a hit with my daughter (they came with chips)
They were about 350cy and the salads were about 4cy-6cy.
The service at the pool bar was fantastic the staff could not do enough for you, and they were very entertaining.
We walked down to the beach a few times which is lovely, you need to be quite fit to get down there and back up but my mum did it and she’s 66!! (Well-done mum).
In the evenings we would go out sometimes into Protaras or to the Italian opposite the hotel which was really nice, there is a Greek taverna which does a bbq on a Friday with Greek dancing which is great fun and great food!
It was our first time in Cyprus and we have already booked to go back for a week in September we can't wait!

We stayed at the Grecian Park Hotel May 2007 for 7 nights; I would highly recommend this hotel. The staff are excellent, and nothing/nothing was too much trouble. The holiday was very relaxing, not much to do around the hotel, but Protaras and Ayia Napa only a short bus ride away.
We found that the hotel food (especially the Japanese Restaurant) excellent and therefore we did not need to go out at night, as we wanted to totally relax.
We did read many reviews before we went and I can only say I should not have worried, as this was and will remain one of our best holidays ever. We have been to Cyprus many times and love the island, Paphos is still my favourite area, but we will return to this hotel again as the experience was second to none.

My Husband and I booked this holiday for our fifteenth Wedding Anniversary. When we arrived at the hotel we were suitably impressed, and were not disappointed throughout the holiday.
The rooms were kept clean and were of a very high standard of decor. I was very impressed with the electric blind and blackout curtains in the room, this coupled with the aircon would keep the room suitably cool in the high season.
The lifts were tiny as previously mentioned but this was not a problem. We spent several evenings listening to the Piano being played in the foyer area, while enjoying Mocha.
The Charisma Cafe served very reasonably priced lunches and the portions were huge.
Breakfast was the same everyday but there was a choice of cooked breakfast, cold meats/cheeses, toast, croissants, cereals and tinned fruit. You could also make yourself a Bucks Fizz, obviously aimed at those getting married that day.
There were quite a few weddings while we were there, but they did not get in the way of us using the facilities. The pools were cleaned every day and everything outside was always kept clean, including the cushions on the sofas, which we saw being changed one morning.
A new poolside bar was being built while we were there and opened on our last day. They were serving cocktails, smoothies and a small menu of snacks. We loved the idea of being given clean towels for the sunbeds every day; you could even get fresh ones during the day, if yours was wet. The beds were never completely full; we still got a bed at lunchtime one day, having been out in the morning.
Getting to the beach was definitely not for the unfit, elderly or buggies as it was winding and in places steep and loose/ or hard baked and shiny. Once at the beach there were umbrellas and plastic scoop shaped beds, watersports, toilets, and a restaurant a short walk away.
A trip to Cyclops cave is worth a look, allow 44-50 mins round trip and wear your trainers as it was definitely more adventurous that getting to the beach!
We ate out every night, favouring the steakhouse at the bottom of the hill, a 5 minute stroll down hill and a slightly longer one coming back, once dark and full of lovely home cooked food and local wine. We also enjoyed a pizza at the restaurant opposite the hotel.
We visited Protaras by bus (£1STERLING) but unless you like endless gift shops and restaurants, McDonalds and Pizza Hut included, it was not for us.
Overall, a superb Hotel and would recommend it to any age group, as we saw families with babies up to early teens, and couples of all age groups.

Great holiday, wonderful hotel. It was actually my birthday when we were away and they made it really splendid.
Very nice peaceful holiday, wonderful pool and staff, the views were amazing because it is right on the edge of a cliff over looking the beach.
The only thing was, it was out of the main resort so there was nothing near by and too far to walk, the hotel has it's own vehicle leaving the hotel and driving into Ayia Napa at many times throughout the day so it wasn't a problem for us and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone!

Had the best 2 weeks of my life, the hotel was fab the staff were friendly and helpful. Our wedding day was out of this world, my wife and I watch the DVD constantly have so many happy memories. Any couple planning to get married abroad should consider this hotel, the manager was a bit pushy but what a day, and my hat is off to him he certainly knows how to organise the big day. The Olympic wedding rep was so helpful she brought it all together brilliantly on the day, worth her weight in gold. The surrounding bars and restaurants were also brilliant we ate almost every night in the steak house at the bottom of the hill towards Protaras, then ending our evening every night in the Greco bar next to hotel, my ribs still hurt after all the laughter in there. What a blast, would not go anywhere else on holiday. The Grecian Park will always be my happiest holiday moment cannot wait for next year and our return.

We stayed at Grecian Park for 10 days for our honeymoon. Everything about the hotel was first class and we didn't experience anything negative unlike some of the previous comments on this web page.
Our room had lovely decor and was always kept clean by the brilliant domestic staff. In the daytime we mainly sat around the lovely pool and drank cocktails which the girls served us at our sun loungers. The sofas situated around the pool with overhead canopies were also great for a bit of shade and comfort away from the sun. The staff couldn’t be faltered for their efficiency and politeness.
In the evenings we tended to get a taxi into Protaras or Ayia Napa for dinner to have a bit of a venture out of the hotel. Waiting for the taxi, we were serenaded by a man playing the grand piano in the foyer which seemed to set the scene for the evening nicely. A superb restaurant we found in Ayia Napa was called Sage which served fantastic food with brilliant service. We would definitely recommend this place for a romantic evening. Afterwards on most nights, we would head back to the hotel and relax at the cliff bar in its super setting under the trees with hanging tarpaulins and lanterns, overlooking the sea where they serve cocktails to you, 100% relaxation found here!!
The food and drinks were more expensive than England but no different to the whole of Cyprus where all is marginally more costly. We would definitely return to Grecian park for future holidays.

The evening that we arrived at the hotel, we were stunned at how amazing it was. The view from our balcony was the sea to the left and the pool which was outstanding. Our room was spotless and was cleaned every day including new bedding and towels. We got married in the hotel and everything couldn't have gone smoother, the wedding organiser was brilliant and we didn't have to lift a finger. There were a lot of weddings held in the hotel which we were able to see before our big day and we were very happy. Our wedding day was amazing and the staff were excellent.
The only faults I could find with the hotel were that the lifts were a bit small and the beach was a bit of a trek but gorgeous when you got there! Also, the pool snack bar was a bit expensive but you would expect this from a 5 star hotel.
The town of Protaras was about £5 taxi ride away but we liked the privacy of the hotel location which was ideal for couples and honeymooners.
There is loads and loads of bars and restaurants in Protaras and entertainment on in nearly every bar and was a good night out.
We are hoping to visit the Grecian Park Hotel next year for our 1st anniversary, we could not visit Cyprus and stay anywhere else!

We have stayed at the Grecian Park on 2 occasions and will be going back for a third in September. We also had our wedding there last year and it was amazing. Staff in all areas were excellent nothing was too much trouble. Food lovely, a little overpriced but it is a five star hotel but the food was good. Brilliant pool service you don't even have to leave your sun lounger for a drink or a snack it will be brought to you! What can I say EXCELLENT! And we have been sent vouchers from the hotel 2 years running to use on our next visit.
