The experience of touring the United Kingdom to update old and new friends about “all things new” in the Cyprus MICE market can be summarised in one simple phrase “It’s been a pleasure!”.
This time however was even more pleasurable as it was clear that in the last five years Cyprus has developed the right products and the optimal capacity to satisfy the demanding and seasoned British MICE market.
The soon-to-come launching of the City of Dreams Mediterranean will add 500 5-star bedrooms in the city of Limassol. Most importantly it will add a state-of-the-art convention center, with a thousand-people capacity plenary room, a thousand-people capacity white-canvas room, and eleven break-out rooms. These additions will enable Cyprus to host larger conferences and meeting projects. The addition of a new hotel and conference center comes in perfect timing with the maturing of newly launched hotels in the city. The Parklane, A Luxury Collection Resort and Spa, and the Amara Hotel, which both opened their gates in 2019 feature some of the best restaurants on the island, with the likes of Le Petite Maison (London and Paris), Nammos (Mykonos) and Matsuhisa (Beverly Hills and Paris) dominate the culinary scene in the island!
On the other side of the island, overlooking the dramatic scenery of the western coast of Cyprus, the five-star Cap. St. Georges launched in June, upgrading with a brand new product of the highest quality one of the most beautiful areas of the island! With 185 luxurious rooms and unparalleled wellness and culinary offerings, the Cap. St. Georges is the best option for those who want to combine a 5-star stay with an adventurous and active program. The reason is that the resort is neighboring the Akamas National Forest, which is the best base to organize land and sea-based activities but to also explore the wine-making areas of Paphos!
Another great addition is the Radisson Beach in Larnaca and just a 10-minute drive from the Larnaca International Airport. The Radisson Beach is a five-star beachside property with spacious and high-end conference facilities. Just a few months old, the management and the staff of the hotels create one of the most MICE-oriented operating teams on the island. The close proximity to the Larnaca International Airport makes the Radisson Beach a great choice for a short, efficient, and professional international meeting project!
