Limassol is the largest port city on the south coast of Cyprus, with a medieval castle in its Old Town, a modern marina and seafront promenade, and the ancient sites of Kourion, Kolossi and Amathus within a short drive.
Accommodation overview
Limassol stays cluster in four areas. The Amathus Avenue beach strip east of the centre (Agios Tychonas, Parekklisia, Pyrgos) holds most 4- and 5-star resorts, including Amathus Beach, Four Seasons, Parklane and Grand Resort. The Germasogeia tourist strip on Georgiou A' Avenue has mid-range and upscale hotels close to the sea and restaurants. Central Limassol and the Old Town around the castle, Old Port and marina suit travellers without a car who want restaurants and bars on foot. City of Dreams Mediterranean sits on the western edge of the city.

Hotels on Amathus Avenue are 6 to 12 km from the Old Town; check distances and use the local buses or taxis.
Check that the hotel is not closed for the winter if travelling between November and March.
A stay near Georgiou A' Avenue can be lively at night; ask for a room away from bars if sleeping early.
Larnaca airport is about 65 km away; airport buses and taxis are the usual transfers.
Rental cars are useful for Kourion, Kolossi and the Troodos wine villages, but not for an Old Town stay.
