Friendly and Clean
To me, the most important thing about any hotel is that it appears clean, and the Ciao Stelio was absolutely spotless and fresh. The second most important is staff helpfulness, since they are the people you rely on as tourists. Everyone I spoke to went above and beyond to help us navigate the city (Anna was especially nice!) They helped with taxis when the half hour walk into town was too much due to the heat. They recommended excursions and seemed genuinely interested without being nosy. The beach across the street is quiet and shallow and the Larnaca natives I spoke to there said it was their favorite spot, away from the tourist crowds and right under the landing airplanes. Usually I like to try different hotels when I return to a place, but I think I would stick with the Ciao Stelio in Larnaca. No reason to mess with perfection.

A visit well worth repeating.
We visited for Sunday Brunch. The service was excellent. Mrs.Angela and her colleagues looked after us extremely well. They were professional, caring and extremely polite. The food was excellent plentiful well presented. The prices were reasonable too. Worth the visit and excellent value for money.

Ένα εξαιρετικό, μοντέρνο, ήσυχο με ωραία θέα ξενοδοχείο !!
Βρίσκομαι αρκετά συχνά στο ξενοδοχείο αυτό για επαγγελματικά ταξίδια. Βρίσκεται στα 10' από το αεροδρόμιο της Λάρνακας. Πολύ ωραία η θέα όλη η παραλία των Φοινικούδων, επάνω στην θάλασσα και το κύμα. Το προσωπικό ευγενεστατο και εξυπηρετικό σε ότι χρειαστείτε. Οι χώροι με ωραίο φωτισμό και άψογη αισθητική. Τα δωμάτια πεντακάθαρα, ήσυχα. Με όλες τις ανέσεις και ότι μπορεί να χρειαστεί κάποιος. Εκπληκτική ηχομόνωση και κρεβάτια στα οποία βουλιάζεις με τις ώρες για έναν άψογο ύπνο. Το πρωινό πλούσιο, με ότι τραβάει η όρεξη σας. Το εστιατόριο επίσης εξαιρετικό με καλές τιμές, μεγάλη ποικιλία και ωραίες γεύσεις να δοκιμάσετε. Το προτείνω ανεπιφύλακτα σε όλους όσους θέλουν ηρεμία σε έναν πανέμορφο χώρο επάνω στην θάλασσα.

Fantastic
This was a great hotel! I spent 5 nights there and did the nicer room with the full sea view (don't remember it's official name) but it was a corner room and the windows wrapped around the corner and the slider opened all the way (though it was too hot for me to do that). The balcony was large and nice for the evenings or very early morning (it was a tad hot to be out on it during the day as it is July). The hotel was the perfect distance from the noisy night life. If you want to partake it's an easy walk and if you don't want it then you are far enough away to not have to hear it. The hotel is close to the airport. Very quiet on the floors, which was an added bonus for successful sleeping. The breakfast was a bit disappointing. Thought they could've had some fresh-order egg dishes like omelets etc., but it was really the pre-made scrambled or fried (and maybe boiled), bread products and some veggies. But that was really the only shortcoming and that's not a big deal since the breakfast was included anyway. The AC worked great in the rooms and that IS a big deal. They provided bottled water daily with housekeeping. The front desk was always available and helpful. So helpful! The bed was comfortable and the views were amazing. There is a mini fridge in the room to chill the water I was guzzling. They have beach towels (the beach was literally right across the street) and the hotel is on a little block next to shops, other hotels/restaurants, kiosks to buy beach floatation things, sunblock, cold beverages to stay hydrated, etc. It's also a short walk to the center of town with the church, medieval castle, etc. I even walked it in the heat, so you know it's close. I did room service quite often both because the restaurant has a great menu with delicious, reasonably priced food, and because from the sea view room guests had the best views in Larnaca already. So ate dinner in my air conditioned room and enjoyed those amazing views from my desk or one of the two large chairs. Cyprus is a big island--getting around to other parts of it takes time so if you are just coming for under a week, I recommend staying in Larnaca because it's close to the airport, still has beautiful beaches and everything you need and further, I definitely recommend the Ciao Stelio. I thought it was going to be all honeymooners (and booked it in spite of that, based on the great reviews and pictures of that gorgeous room--all of which turned out to be completely accurate) but it was a wide mix of adult friends, people working (lot of airline crew at the hotel), solo travelers who just wanted a kid-free hotel, etc. Perfect mix. Lots of friendly people.

Superb from start to finish.
We were warmly welcomed by Dimitris at Reception and offered some refreshing homemade lemonade. Our room overlooked the sea and had a balcony. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and were impressed by the Molton Brown toiletries. Breakfast was varied with plenty of choice from cereals to cooked breakfast and freshly squeezed orange juice. I have nothing but praise for all the staff who were are working and very friendly. Special mention for Ellie and Angela in the restaurant and Dimitris at the front desk. Stella, the hotel manager was lovely and very helpful.

Wonderful hotel with exceptional employees
This was my third visit to the hotel. Every person who works there is welcoming and they even remembered me from my previous visits. You feel like a member of the extended family! This time I ate and drank in the Enigma restaurant and Gambino bar. The ambience is amazing and sitting under cover, overlooking the sea, is the best location. Thank you very much for your wonderful service. I recommend that everyone visits this hotel once in their lifetime. Every hotel should aspire to be as marvellous as this hotel. I will look forward to visit number four.

Perfect Beach Stay with Exceptional Service
My wife and I stayed here and it’s the perfect place to stay—we absolutely loved it! All the staff are super nice, and the person who stood out to us was Mr. Dimitri from reception. He went above and beyond to help us in every way. Our room had absolutely stunning views, with a relaxing sunrise and sunset over the beach. The beach vibes were perfect. Highly recommend for beach lovers!

If you’re thinking about coming to Larnaca, please book this hotel! It's absolutely amazing. The employees are the best, and the food at the ground floor Enigma Restobar is delightful. They offer a wide variety of dishes and have a fantastic brunch with a newly launched menu that has an amazing selection of food. The view is breathtaking. I loved my stay here so much!!!

Where Hospitality Meets Natural Beauty
The hotel's location is superb! You can enjoy direct views of both beach sunsets and sunrises. Plus, it's just a short two or three-minute stroll to the vibrant nightlife at the beachfront. The service is exceptional, with a clean and tidy lobby greeting you. The room size is just right, and what's more, the air conditioner operates quietly without any noise disturbances. Overall, this hotel offers fantastic value for your money!
