The Cyprus Hotel Guide includes the Hotels and Tourist Establishments officially registered and classified by the Cyprus Tourism organisation in accordance with the provisions of the Hotels and Tourist Establishments Law and Regulations.

Under the existing legislation tourist establishments are distinguished between “Luxury”, “A”, “B”,  and “C” class as opposed to the 1 to 5 stars classification of hotels. As a result we have:

-Five denominations of Hotels (1 to 5 stars)

-Four denominations oh Hotel Apartments and Tourist Villas (Luxury, A,B,C class)

-Two  denominations of Tourist Villages and Camping Sites (A and B class)

-Traditional Houses (Classified into hotels or hotel apartments)

-Tourist Apartments (formerly unlicensed establishments)

-Hotels without star and Guest Houses (the so-called “dying classes” entry into which is no longer allowed for new establishments).

All the accommodation establishments  are listed by town/ area, type, category and class, and are in alphabetical order. Detailed information on facilities offered by  each hotel operation is included in the Guide, a copy of which can be obtained, free of charge, from all the Cyprus Tourism Organisation Offices in Cyprus and abroad.
