Nicosia es la capital de Chipre y la única capital dividida del mundo — la Línea Verde administrada por la ONU ha partido el corazón de la ciudad desde 1974, separando el sur chipriota-griego del norte ocupado por Turquía. Se encuentra tierra adentro en el centro de la isla, así que no vengas esperando playas (esas están en Lárnaca y Limasol). Lo que obtienes en cambio son 4.000 años de historia en capas envueltos dentro de una fortaleza estelar veneciana del siglo XVI con once bastiones perfectamente conservados. Los mejores lugares para hospedarse son dentro de las murallas del Casco Antiguo (a pie de la calle Ledra, los cafés y el punto de cruce), Engomi cerca del Museo de Chipre y el distrito de negocios, o el más tranquilo Strovolos para mejor relación calidad-precio. No te pierdas cruzar el checkpoint de Ledra para ver la Mezquita de Selimiye — una catedral gótica reconvertida en mezquita — en el lado norte; solo lleva tu pasaporte. Elegimos diez hoteles reales en la ciudad, desde The Landmark Autograph y Hilton Nicosia en el extremo superior hasta MAP Boutique y Castelli Old Town para tarifas más asequibles. El aeropuerto más cercano es Lárnaca (LCA), a 50 km al sureste, con un shuttle Kapnos por €8 o un coche privado en unos 45 minutos de puerta a puerta.

No. 1 #1 city icon · central Nicosia ★8.9 The Landmark Nicosia, Autograph Collection
📍 On Archbishop Makarios III Avenue in central Nicosia's business district — about a 10-minute walk to Eleftheria Square, and roughly a 45-minute drive to Larnaca Airport (LCA) on the A1 highway.
The Landmark Nicosia, Autograph Collection is the capital's reborn icon — the building opened as the Hilton Cyprus back in 1968, went through a top-to-bottom rebuild, and reopened under the Marriott Autograph Collection brand in late 2025. All 313 rooms and suites have been fully renovated, done in a modern, understated luxury that keeps a Cypriot accent. The feature everyone talks about is the large outdoor pool set in the hotel garden, backed by a sharp fitness and wellness floor and 4 restaurants running from an international breakfast buffet through contemporary Mediterranean food to a cocktail bar. It sits on Archbishop Makarios III Avenue in the central business district, about a 10-minute walk from Eleftheria Square and roughly 45 minutes from Larnaca Airport (LCA) on the A1. Tripadvisor ranked it #2 in Nicosia during its reopening, with an 8.9 on Agoda and 8.8 on Booking — guests single out the spotless new rooms and the warm Cypriot staff. We score it 8.9/10: a strong fit for business travelers, couples and families who want a fresh luxury base in the heart of the capital.
- Rooms and public spaces are brand new — rebuild finished late 2025
- Outdoor pool, big gym and 4 restaurants all on site
- Downtown spot on Makarios Avenue, 10-minute walk to Eleftheria Square
- Newly reopened, so a few small details are still being ironed out
- Nicosia has no metro — you need taxis or a rental car for longer trips

No. 2 #2 luxury · Tripadvisor #1 in the city ★8.8 Hilton Nicosia
📍 Engomi business and embassy district on the western side of Nicosia, about 2 miles from the walled Old Town inside the Venetian Walls (an 8 to 10-minute drive), close to the A1 highway toward Limassol and Larnaca Airport (LCA), around 50 minutes away by car.
Hilton Nicosia is the 5-star that locals widely call the best in town, and Tripadvisor has ranked it #1 in Nicosia for several years running. It sits in Engomi, the business and embassy quarter on the western side of the city, wrapped in wide green gardens that are genuinely rare this close to a capital's centre. The feature every review agrees on is the lagoon-shaped outdoor pool ringed by tall trees, backed by a full spa with treatment rooms and a sauna, a well-equipped gym, and 4 restaurants under one roof, from fine dining down to a poolside café. The roughly 294 rooms are modern and more spacious than the city average, some with balconies facing the garden or pool. The breakfast buffet draws heavy praise too. It's about 2 miles from the Old Town inside the Venetian Walls, an 8 to 10-minute drive, and around 50 minutes by car from Larnaca Airport (LCA). Rooms start near $166 a night.
- Tripadvisor #1 in Nicosia for years running
- Lagoon pool set in gardens plus a full spa
- 4 restaurants and a standout breakfast buffet
- 2 miles from the Old Town, so every trip in needs a car or taxi
- Nicosia has no train, so you lean on cars and taxis

No. 3 #3 design boutique · central Nicosia ★9.2 MAP Boutique Hotel
📍 On Stasinou Avenue in central Nicosia, Cyprus, roughly a 5-minute walk to Eleftheria Square and about 8 minutes to pedestrian Ledra Street. Larnaca Airport (LCA) is about a 45-minute drive.
MAP Boutique Hotel is a 4-star, 31-room boutique that made the MICHELIN Guide list, sitting on Stasinou Avenue in central Nicosia, the capital of Cyprus. The design blends classic Art Deco with restrained contemporary lines, warmed up with brass, marble and dense wood. Rooms run earth-toned and a touch roomier than boutiques in other cities, from Deluxe up to a Junior Suite with a daybed sofa and a generous marble bathroom. The two highlights reviewers keep naming are Scale, a chef's Mediterranean restaurant working with seasonal Cypriot ingredients, and Legend Spa, with local olive-oil treatments and a Levantine hammam. Staff draw near-unanimous praise for being warm and remembering guests by name. It's a 5-minute walk to Eleftheria Square and about 8 minutes to pedestrianised Ledra Street, the crossing point into North Nicosia. With Agoda at 9.2 and Booking at 9.1 for an overall 9.2/10, it suits couples and design lovers who want a capital that hasn't yet gone mainstream. Rooms start around $185 a night.
- MICHELIN Guide-listed Art Deco design boutique
- Chef-led Scale Mediterranean restaurant plus a well-known Legend Spa
- Easy 5-minute walk to Eleftheria Square, 8 to Ledra Street
- Rooms aren't large the way newer chain hotels are
- Priced above the average hotel in the city

No. 4 #4 Value · 4-star suburban stay ★8.5 Hilton Park Nicosia
📍 Strovolos, a suburb south of Nicosia, on Griva Dighenis Avenue · about 4 km from the Old Town, roughly a 10-minute drive · about 45 minutes from Larnaca Airport (LCA) via the A1 motorway.
Hilton Park Nicosia is the smaller, more affordable sibling of the big Hilton downtown, sitting in Strovolos, a quiet suburb south of the city about 4 km from the Old Town. This 4-star hotel runs 138 rooms across a low-rise building wrapped in shady gardens, and it sells the calm you can't get downtown: an outdoor pool with a pool bar and 2 tennis courts. Rooms are warm and contemporary, and nearly every one has a private balcony looking onto the garden or pool. Rates start around $120 a night — roughly half what the big Hilton charges — and guest scores of 8.4 on Booking and 8.5 on Agoda back up its claim as the best-value 4-star in town. It suits families who want room for kids to run, business travelers with meetings nearby, and anyone driving who wants easy parking — the trade-off is a taxi or car ride to reach the Old Town. Overall score 8.5/10.
- Best value in the 4-star tier, close to the big Hilton's quality at roughly half the price
- Shady gardens, a pool and tennis courts you won't find downtown
- Quiet and safe, with easy free parking — good for families and business
- About 4 km from the Old Town — you'll need a taxi or your own car
- Building and decor are showing their age; ask for a refurbished room

No. 5 #5 all-suite hotel · best value in the capital ★9.2 Almond Business Hotel
📍 In the Ayioi Omologites neighborhood of central Nicosia — about 3 km from the government ministries and the old-town walls (a 5-to-8-minute drive into the center), with local restaurants and cafes a 5-to-10-minute walk away. Larnaca airport is about a 45-minute drive.
Almond Business Hotel is a 4-star all-suite stay in central Nicosia built for both business travelers and families settling in for several nights. It sits in the Ayioi Omologites neighborhood — quiet, but only about 3 km from the government ministries and the old-town walls, a 5-to-8-minute drive into the center. The selling point is clear: every unit is an executive suite of more than 35 sq m, with a sitting area set apart from the bed plus a kitchenette, fridge and microwave, so it feels more like renting an apartment than booking a hotel. There is free parking inside the building, and the homemade breakfast that reviewers single out as a highlight. Staff are warm enough to remember guests by name, and average guest scores run 9.1-9.2/10 on Booking and Agoda — among the highest in Nicosia. Rooms start around $130 a night, excellent value for a suite this size in the capital.
- Every room is a large suite with a kitchenette and a separate sitting area
- Free parking plus an excellent homemade breakfast
- Warm staff and a 9.1-9.2 guest score
- No pool and no spa
- You drive or take a taxi to reach the old town

No. 6 #6 Boutique · Heart of the Old Town ★8.6 📍 Dead center of the Old Town inside the Venetian Walls — about a 10-minute walk to the Ledra Street pedestrian strip and the UN Green Line crossing, and roughly 45 km from Larnaca airport (LCA), about a 45-minute drive.
The Classic Hotel Nicosia - Handwritten Collection is a 4-star boutique under Accor's Handwritten Collection, tucked into a carefully restored historic building in the heart of Nicosia's Old Town, inside Venetian Walls that are over 400 years old. There are 57 rooms and no two are decorated the same, set across a multi-level layout full of staircases and odd corners you can wander through like a living old house. It's about a 10-minute walk to the Ledra Street pedestrian strip and the UN Green Line crossing into the north of the island, and roughly 45 km (a 45-minute drive) from Larnaca airport (LCA). Rooms start around $110 a night and top out near $205 in high season — strong value for an Accor property at this level in Europe. Reviews land at 8.6 on Agoda and 8.5 on Booking, with consistent praise for the staff and the building's character. It suits couples and culture travelers who want to actually soak up Nicosia rather than just pass through.
- Beautifully restored historic building in the heart of the Old Town
- 57 rooms, every one designed differently
- Five-star staff service that reviews agree on
- Multi-level layout with lots of stairs — hard going if you don't walk easily
- No large pool or full spa

No. 7 #7 value pick · central Nicosia near the old-town walls ★7.9 Cleopatra Hotel
📍 On Florinis Street in central Nicosia — about a 6-minute walk to the old-town Venetian Walls and Eleftheria Square, 8 minutes to the Solomos bus station, and roughly a 45-minute drive to Larnaca Airport (LCA) via the A2 motorway.
Cleopatra Hotel is one of Nicosia's long-established 4-star addresses, sitting on Florinis Street in the city centre — a 6-minute walk from the old town's Venetian Walls and Eleftheria Square. There are 89 rooms in a classic, understated building, and the detail guests keep mentioning is that every room gets a wide balcony framing the city skyline and the Pentadaktylos mountains to the north. Service is the other repeat compliment: front desk and room service are warm enough that people say it feels like staying at a friend's place. Facilities cover what a 4-star should — 2 restaurants, a ballroom for conferences and weddings, a gym, and an outdoor pool open in summer. Rooms start around $100 a night, which is strong value for the location. We score it 7.9/10 — a fit for culture-first travelers, mid-budget couples, and business visitors who want a central base without paying boutique-luxury rates.
- Central location — a 6-minute walk to the old-town Venetian Walls
- A wide balcony in every one of the 89 rooms, facing the city skyline
- Warm, easygoing staff that reviews consistently praise
- Decor is traditional and dark-toned, not modern or minimalist
- Some bathrooms, showers and the Wi-Fi show the building's age

No. 8 #8 Boutique in the heart of the old town ★8.6 Centrum Hotel
📍 Right on Eleftheria Square in the heart of Nicosia's old town — a 2-minute walk to the Ledra Street pedestrian strip, 3 minutes to Onasagorou, and about 45 minutes by car to Larnaca Airport (LCA).
Centrum Hotel is a 3-star boutique with 47 rooms, sitting right on Eleftheria Square — the central plaza that the late architect Zaha Hadid redesigned, and arguably the best base in Nicosia if you came to walk the old town. Step out of the lobby and you hit the Ledra Street pedestrian strip in under 2 minutes, with Onasagorou and its cafes another minute on. It's run by a Cypriot family, so the mood is closer to staying at a friend's place than a chain. Rooms are warm-toned and modern, sized for an old town, and a few have a small balcony over the square. Breakfast is served on the semi-open rooftop terrace in the cool morning air. Rates start around $90 a night, and the combined guest score is 8.6/10 — built for couples, solo travelers and small families who'd rather pay for location and warmth than a full sweep of facilities.
- Sits on Eleftheria Square, 2 minutes from Ledra Street
- Warm family-run service — staff remember your name
- Fresh rooftop-terrace breakfast with grilled halloumi
- Rooms run small, old town boutique style
- No pool, gym or spa

No. 9 #9 Trusted chain · great value ★7.7 Holiday Inn Nicosia City Centre
📍 Central Nicosia on Regaena Street — about a 5-minute walk to Ledra Street and the Old Town gate, roughly 7 minutes to Eleftheria Square, and around 50 minutes by car from Larnaca Airport (LCA).
Holiday Inn Nicosia City Centre is a 140-room, 4-star IHG chain hotel on Regaena Street in the middle of Nicosia, the capital of Cyprus, a few minutes on foot from the Ledra Street Old Town gate and Eleftheria Square. The pitch here isn't grand luxury — it's the everything-under-one-roof reliability that business travelers and families actually want. You get an indoor pool, a sauna, a Roman bath, a gym, a spa and five restaurants including a rooftop bar. Rates start around $106 a night, which is genuinely good value by international-chain standards in a European capital. Real reviews on Agoda (7.7) and Booking.com (7.6) line up on the generous breakfast and the friendly staff. It suits anyone who wants a brand they can trust, an easy walking base and amenities that are simply there when you need them. Overall score: 7.7/10.
- Dependable IHG chain with predictable, international-standard service
- 5-minute walk to the Old Town and Ledra Street
- Indoor pool, Roman bath and five restaurants on site
- Generic chain interiors with no local Cypriot character
- Some rooms get street noise and a slightly musty smell

No. 10 #10 budget boutique · heart of the old town ★7.6 Castelli Hotel Nicosia
📍 In the heart of the walled old town on Ouzounian Street — about a 3-minute walk to Ledra Street, 2 minutes to Faneromeni Church, and roughly a 45-minute drive from Larnaca Airport (LCA).
Castelli Hotel Nicosia is a 3-star boutique of around 50 rooms tucked into a 19th-century mansion on Ouzounian Street, smack in the old town of Nicosia. It opened after a careful restoration of a historic building that still carries Cyprus's Ottoman and colonial character. Step out the door and you are on Ledra Street, the main pedestrian shopping drag; a few more steps and you reach Faneromeni Church, the largest Orthodox church in the old town, and the Archbishop's Palace. Rates start at about $80 a night with breakfast included, which makes it one of the best-value ways to sleep inside the Venetian walls without paying a premium. Real guests give it 7.6 on Agoda and 7.5 on Booking, with consistent praise for the location and the staff. It suits history-minded travelers, budget-conscious couples, and anyone who wants to walk the old town on foot. Overall 7.6/10.
- Heart of the old town — 3-minute walk to Ledra Street
- 19th-century mansion with real historic character
- Friendly rates with breakfast included
- Historic building, so some rooms run smaller than newer-hotel standard
- No pool, spa, or gym on site

Cuál elegir — por estilo de viaje
#1 The Landmark Nicosia is the Cypriot capital's icon reborn after a full rebuild — brand-new rooms, an outdoor pool, a big gym, 4 restaurants and genuinely warm Cypriot service.
#2 Hilton Nicosia is a 5-star in green gardens that has held Tripadvisor's #1 spot in the city for years, strong on its lagoon-shaped outdoor pool, full spa and 4 restaurants, traded against a location that needs a short ride into the Old Town.
#3 MAP Boutique Hotel is an Art Deco design boutique the MICHELIN Guide picked out in the heart of the Cypriot capital, with a chef-led Mediterranean restaurant and a well-known spa; the taste and warm service carry it further than the room size does.
#4 Hilton Park Nicosia is the big Hilton's affordable sibling, selling the calm of a leafy suburb — shady gardens, an outdoor pool and tennis courts — better suited to families and business travelers than to anyone who wants to walk the Old Town.
#5 Almond Business Hotel is an all-suite stay in central Nicosia that feels like a private apartment — a kitchenette, free parking, and staff who remember your name at a price that surprises for a 4-star in the capital.
#6 The Classic takes an old building in the middle of the Old Town and retells it in Accor's Handwritten style — the draw is the one-of-a-kind rooms, an all-day walkable location, and service reviewers keep calling five-star.
