Leonardo Hotels introduces The Grand Resort Limassol, a lavish fivestar destination in Cyprus with 255 rooms, exquisite dining options, expansive pools, spa facilities, and entertainment offerings. Situated by the Mediterranean Sea, the resort boasts a modern design and familyfriendly amenities, promising an unforgettable stay for all guests.
Cyprus restaurants faced a 50% decline in customers during Easter due to a mismatch in Catholic and Orthodox holiday dates, as well as a preference for private family gatherings. However, a slight increase in business was seen with the return of university students, offering a glimmer of hope for the struggling dining scene.
During recent holidays like Green Monday and March 25, Cyprus’ restaurants and bars, especially in coastal areas, saw a surge in patronage, reaching 8090% capacity, with some areas at full occupancy. This increased activity signals a hopeful economic revival preceding the tourist season.
Cyprus’ hospitality sector is a cornerstone of its economy, contributing 6% to the island’s added value and employing 13.5% of the workforce. With a diverse range of offerings from traditional beach resorts to agrotourism, Cyprus not only promotes culture but also sustains communities through this vital sector.
The Cyprus Hospitality Awards event in Limassol celebrated excellence in tourism and hospitality, highlighting the island’s commitment to gastronomic excellence and the rich tradition of “kopiaste.” The Deputy Ministry of Tourism, along with the Cyprus Hospitality Association, honored individuals and businesses dedicated to upholding the values of hospitality and showcasing the best of Cypriot culture.
The Hotel Summit & Exhibition in Cyprus is a crucial event for hospitality industry leaders to discuss trends and strategies amidst challenges like ‘bleisure’ travel, digital nomadism, sustainability, and disruptive technologies. Scheduled for its 45th edition at the City of Dreams Mediterranean hotel in Limassol, the event serves as a strategic hub for insights and adaptation in the dynamic hospitality sector.
