enjoyable holiday
Positives - Well maintained, lovely hotel. The hotels best attribute is its pleasent and helpful staff, mostly young Polish kids (although there did appear to be a lot dismissed whilst we were there, even half way through our evening meal). The hotel is spotlessly clean and the reception staff knowledgeable. On a negative side. 1) We went with a 15 year old who was given a put me up bed to sleep on. Much too small and much too low! - but it was what was advertised in the broucher. 2) The hotel menu (although beautiful) works on a one week rotation so if you are there for two weeks you will have seen it all before. The Thomas Cook entertainment staff tried their hardest against definate appathy from guests, but were a little bit disorganised - the same numbers being called in bingo twice and then just laughed off (what number was missing girls?). As in 2) above the entertainment is on a weekly rotation and you will be forced either to watch it again or seek pastures new during the second week. The hotel will best serve those who like a hotel based holiday. It is a fair walk to the main area of Protoras (best get a taxi - £4). dont bother with a sea veiw (its in the distance anyway). Book a view of the church - this will mean you are overlooking the pool and entertainment area, with great views. Although there are some gripes above, dont let that put you off. We had a lovely holiday in a lovely hotel being looked after be lovely people, whilst enjoying the blistering hot Cyprus sun. Enjoy
Good Standards
A hotel maintains good standards:- Very clean , well decorated, and has a great pool side area, the Tsokkos Gardens Hotel sports typical Mediterranean buffet style food of good quality. The Hotels best attributes are the staff who are all very polite and efficient and try hard to please the hotels customers The Thomas Cook entertainment team work very hard in the area around the pool if guests wish to join in games or quizzes. In the evening the team turn there talents to producing family shows & childrens entertainment A good quality hotel
Enormous balcony, close to waterpark
This hotel is advertised as a 4star and if you compare it to its sister hotel CONSTANTINOS the GREAT which is supposedly a 5***** hotel you would think they had the ratings mixed up? Although it is not on the beach like the constantinos it has far better rooms and the balcony in the family rooms was bigger than the room itself. The pool was so relaxing, as i find a hotel that is directly on the beach can attract people who do not stay at the hotel to use the pool and bar which can be very annoying. In the pernera end of PROTARAS it is quieter than being in the middle and can feel as if you are a million miles away, ideal for chilling out. I would recommend this hotel for couples and families alike and will come back again one day?
Good appartments but not 4 star
Stayed at the hotel's appartments for a week over Easter having been moved a few days before travelling by Thomas Cook Holidays because the booked appartment wasn't open. We had two one bed appartments and they were OK for size and furnishing. Cooking facilities and utensils basic (e.g. no bottle opener). TV reception poor and only english channel went off air during our stay. Balcony small, over car park & hardly ever saw the sun. The appartments were cleaned every day and towels (on the worn side) were changed every day. Two decent pools and a small indoor pool. The poolside area was surprisingly empty and the pool nearest the appartments was normally empty (it was a pool for swimming in not playing in). We had wanted a relaxing holiday which was what we got. The appartments are not 4 star as claimed, probably just making 3 star but we would consider going back. The location is poor being a mile away from the main centre and beach but we had a car and there seemed to be no shortage of taxis. Easter was mid April but the resort was only half open with many bars having only one or two customers. Most of the restaurant food was fairly indifferent though the Chinese near the hotel was good and the staff very nice.
A really good break
We stayed at the Tsokkos Gardens Hotel over Easter in April, 2006 and overall had a really enjoyable and relaxing stay there. The location was good for us in that it is situated in a quiet area with no main road nearby and two minutes walking distance from the sea. Overall the hotel is modern, clean and everything you would expect form a 4 star. The room was average sized with a balcony (make sure you get a pool view room if possible) but the bathroom was just about satisfactory, not great - although this was not a major issue. Food was fair - good, all self-service which was fine for us. The pool and pool area is the best part of the hotel, always plenty of recliners and space and the pool itself was attractive and clean. Activities included pool, table tennis, a daily quiz and various others run by the tour guides. Close by are pubs and restaurants with English TV, including Sky Sports. On this note, the TV in the room was useless. Staff were generally friendly, in particular the maitre'd and receptionists. The waiters worked hard but sometimes cleared the table too quickly. In all a comfortable and relaxing break and a recommended hotel.
Great Hotel
My friend and i stayed for 9 nights in April 2006. We had a wonderful stay. The staff are all so hospitable and cannot do enough for you. THE SERVICE IS DEFINATELY 4 STAR PLUS. Previous reports of waiting for drinks may have come from a busier time of year. We stayed all inclusive and found the food to be very acceptable. There isnt the wide wide spread of choice that the spanish hotels lay on but that didnt deter from our enjoyment of it. they even have a cheese board for after dinner. As an all inclusive guest you have to have house wine or pay for a bottle. At the bar you have to give your room number and sign for your drinks each time. You can eat freely during meal times from the buffet and also choose from a menu (frreshly cooked to order) for snacks in between. I you want to have a meal out for a change go the the blue spice. (out of the hotel turn left then right and it's just about 50 mtrs down on the left. It is very popular so book in advance. The rooms are comfortable and carpeted with the option of tv and fridge (for a small charge). the air conditioning wasnt terribly efficient but then again in april it wasnt a problem for us. I struggled to see why paying for rooms with different views would be necessary as none of the views are open to the sea anyway. They over look the main pool or the pool at the tsokkos gdns apartents. Dont bother to pack towels for the pool as the hotel provide them for a returnable deposit. the pool area is large and well maintained. There were loads of sun loungers but then again it was early in the season. The entertainment was very family orientated and at times repetitive. It was all run by a team of young enthusiastic reps from thomas cook. If you like a quiz or two you wont be disappointed. Giant Jenga in the afternoon is a real noisy affair so if you like an after lunch snooze on your sun lounger take your ear plugs. All in all a wonderful stay and i wouldn t hesitate to return there.
Great hotel
I stayed at this Hotel with my partner in early May 05 We both had a wonderful time. We had a room with a pool view and even though it was next to the lift this did not distub us. The staff worked very hard, the food was great so much choice if you didn't like the main course there was plenty of salads, fruit etc. You are shown to your table and order your drinks which arrive promptly. We even asked not to sit at a table behind a pillar and it was no trouble to find another one. We stayed half board as we then have the freedom to go out during the day and go else where for an evening drink if you don't like the Hotel entertainment. The Hotel is in a very quiet area, but with enough to do in the evening. All the bars have tribute acts or karokee. I loved it the people were so friendly, taxi's and drinks are cheap. We also took to trip brought through the rep - Jeep safari and a boat trip to Famagusta, both great fun but cheaper to buy locally. We really enjoy this holiday, I will return to Cyprus but to a different area as we don't like going to the same places very year
good location
we stayed at the tsokkos gardens hotel last week in aug first week in sept 2005 a group of 11 went over for a wedding 9 stayed at the apartments and 2 at the hotel all are part of the same complex the hotel is what you would expect from a 4 star nice rooms. clean . 24 hr recption ect . the apartments are similar with microwave fridge cooking rings ect . if you are thinking of going fully inc dont do it through your booking agent it is a lot cheaper up grading on arrival it cost us 60 cyp pounds per week per person to upgrade from half board. the problems we encounterd was with the food the entertainment the health and safety the food was on a hit and miss we found items on the lunch time was a choice on the evening entertainment very poor you would do better by going to your local pub on a karaoke night entertainment for children also very poor pool safety not good no life gaurds also broken tiles grids round pool cracked or broken the hotel is about 5-10 mins walk from local beach and a 5 min drive to protaras town center with bars and clubs restaurants ect taxi cost 4cyp pounds
still sober
when i arrived at the hotel it looked very nice at the reception area and also the seating area around the indoor bar, the brochure said it was a 4* plus rating, however i beg to differ. the room was very small but clean, i stay in hotels in the uk quite frequently some 3* some 4* and they are of a higher std. than this. as the deal was all inclusive i expected to take full advantage of the free bar, if you ask a waitress for a drink expect to wait at least 30 mins. for her to return with your drink. another gripe is that why do the spirit bottles have optics on them after all its all local spirits you are served and a bottle of the local stuff retails at £3 per bottle considerably less wholesale. there was also a very uncomfortable language barrier, all of the waiting and bar staff are eastern european and often convientlly claim not to understand you. when you bring this up with the management they give the impression that they are quite happy to have things operate this way. the food was bland, and as for the entertainmemt, it was on a par with arthur askey i got freindly with some people from the NE and liverpool and they were cringing with embarassment along with me. to sum up forget the tssokkos gardens for a holiday go to fawlty towers
Plain food but nice hotel
We stayed late last summer for two weeks on a half board trip. The hotel is very clean with nice rooms. The staff are very friendly and helpful (when my girlfriends bag was lost at the airport). There is a large swimming pool but the chairs do go quick, you find yourself putting towels out before breakfast. The hotel food was the main problem, the breakfast is standard. The lunch is poor and lacks choice. This is continued to the evening meal where the food was plain in taste and often repeated itself every few days. If I was to stay here again I would go B&B as there are some very nice restaurants just a short walk away.
