The much-anticipated Amyth of Nicosia hotel is expected to welcome its first guests today, offering a different hospitality experience within the walled city of Nicosia.

The Friday, 28 March launch of the new hotel, which is owned by Thanos Hotels & Resorts Group, is expected to showcase a different side of Cyprus and revive interest in the old town, encouraging visitors to discover the authentic Cypriot culture and rich heritage of the island and especially the capital.

Amyth of Nicosia

Located within the Medieval-era Venetian walls, at 29 Patriarch Gregoriou Street, near the Archbishopric and the Hadjigeorgakis Kornesios Mansion, Amyth of Nicosia harmoniously meshes with the area’s special character. This elegant and fully renovated mansion, which used to be a college, has been transformed into a gem of a boutique hotel. It will feature ten refined rooms and suites, a courtyard restaurant, and a bar. Nightly rates start from €350.

The hotel’s interiors date back to the early 1900s and still feature the traditional details of the era. The original flooring, the grand and imposing staircase and the meticulously curated décor enhance the hotel’s charm and aristocratic elegance. The architecture of the project was undertaken by Eraclis Papachristou, while the interior and exterior design was completed by Maria Neophytou.

The hotel’s Chef, Andrew Michael Smith, under the guidance of the Group’s Executive Chef, David Goodridge, draws inspiration from Mediterranean recipes, with retouched dishes made with the finest ingredients, while maintaining the Group’s high standards.

For the Thanos Hotels team, good food is made with love, through a unique and timeless collaboration with local producers, creating dishes that tell a story. From a hearty breakfast to seafood, crisp salads and carefully crafted vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options, the restaurant’s all-day menu is both fresh and bold.
