a house full of beauty and historical charm
Pros: An incredible house full of history and beauty, we can't believe anyone would dare to rent it. We enjoyed every minute of our stay, trying to imagine the people and their lives in that house throughout history. The location of the house is excellent, within the old walls and close to the old part of the city, Ledra Street and the border crossing into the Turkish part of the city. Unfortunately, we only spent 1 night in the house, but preparing breakfast, making coffee and enjoying the garden gave us, at least for a short while, the feeling that it was our house and that we were part of the rich history. We infinitely appreciate the experience of being able to stay in such a place.
Cons: Everything is perfect.

Highly recommend if you want as close to traditional
Pros: It was an exceptional experience of a bygone era that made me appreciate my heritage even more.
Cons: Parking was difficult and often had to wait or park illegally. Property was rather noisy however that’s to be expected. Downstairs suffered from heat especially as it does not have air conditioning

Pros: stunning authentic historical house in the old centre of the ancient city, the best equipped place I have ever stayed in, a privelege to appreciate. Fine linen, lovely beds, perfect bathroom and wonderful kitchen, they've thought of everything! Lovely books to browse too - a proper time travelling experience, with all the comforts of today. Daughter was transfixed. Peaceful neighborhood, with the fascinating walk close to the border zone, to Ledra street, and surrounded by the unique local history and architecture Can't wait to bring my husband next time, he will love it. Host is lovely, so welcoming and informative.
Cons: wish I had booked for a longer stay! Will have to return instead

Enchanting, serene and highly recommended
Pros: The hosts were super communicative and made check in very easy. The home itself is pure magic. Exceptionally beautiful and well maintained. It is a fully funcitioning home, making it very easy to cook meals and feel instantly comfortable. I travelled with my dog, who loved the courtyard and it was safe and easy to walk him to a little park very nearby. Lastly, the location can't be beat in terms of experiencing the Walled Old City.

Immersion dans Nicosie
Pros: Une maison très bien situé pour une visite à pied de Nicosie. Une bonne manière de s'imprégner de l'atmosphère de la vielle ville, de comprendre un peu la situation actuelle , d'aller au delà des circuits imposés au touriste. Hébergement qui convient très bien aux visiteurs souhaitant sortir des standards classiques.
