Firstly let me say that The room that we stayed in was lovely. Bed was comfortable also.
Tv wasn’t working properly which I reported to reception but it still wasn’t fixed after our 3 night stay. Also no tea bags were available in the room until I chased this up with reception. Easy mistake!
The breakfast was average and certainly not something to shout about. The pool was dirty with cigarette ends in it as well as bits of tissue and other debris. I have the video to prove it. It was also very dirty with dirt/dust etc. This was reported to the receptionist on day one but still not rectified by the end of my 3 night stay. They'res also a lot of redevelopment work ongoing outside of the hotel which really I feel we should have been informed about at the time of booking.
I really hope that this hotel reflects on these points raised as I can see that it has a lot of potential…. Please just act upon things when they’re highlighted to you. It’s this sort of thing that take you from
Being an amazing hotel to an average hotel.

The main disappointment was that there was extensive construction in this area of the city. You could not get close to the hotel or pull up in front to unload. The roadworks were very loud and started very early.
Otherwise, the room was excellent and the location is good.

Good hotel - clean and comfortable room. Central location in Larnaca for beach, restaurants and shops. Helpful reception staff except for one who assured me I had a quiet room when I asked, but in fact lied as I overlooked road works that woke me at 6am and the main thoroughfare that was the route for noisy motorbikes at all hours.

We checked into The Josephine Boutique Hotel in Larnaca as a family of four with two young children and left almost immediately.

The hotel was rundown, poorly maintained and very different from how it appears online. Cleanliness was below an acceptable standard and it did not feel safe or suitable for children.

The overall condition made us uncomfortable from the moment we arrived. This is not what we would expect from accommodation described as a “boutique hotel”.

Families or anyone expecting basic cleanliness, safety and upkeep should look elsewhere - we did, quickly.

The room was fine. The problem was the parking. The area surrounding the hotel is under major construction so it was difficult to get there. But worst was parking. Several blocks away and theoretically free to guests with a card but our card did not work to exit. We had to drive to the airport for a very early flight but could not exit with card, or with 10 euro fee inserted via credit card. No way to get out. It was very bad.

Spent only one night at this hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was a nice size, clean and with a big balcony. We had a fridge and kettle. The best part was the A/C it was excellent and we slept well. Had to leave early in the morning for a flight and the staff offered to send us with a boxed breakfast which was perfect for our needs. Hotel located near all the shops and restaurants and is a 5 minute walk to the beach. Only wish they had a coffee machine in the room. Would stay here again.

Not a good experience

We stayed at Josephine Hotel in Larnaca with our two children and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. We had booked a family room, but a day after checking into room 203, our bathroom started filling with cigarette smoke, which quickly spread into the room.

This was very disturbing and potentially harmful, especially for our children. We reported the issue immediately, but the hotel maintenance team was unable to fix the problem. Instead of resolving the situation properly, we were moved to a much smaller double room that was clearly not suitable for four people because the hotel was fully booked.

At one point, the hotel also offered to move us to another hotel, but it was far from the one we originally booked, which would have created even more trouble for us with the kids.

To make things worse, the reception staff was very disappointing and unapologetic throughout the experience. We didn’t feel supported or cared for as guests, especially in such a stressful situation. It was a total mess.

Having to move rooms mid-stay with two kids and all our luggage was a major inconvenience. We expected better from the hotel. Especially after we stayed there several times in the past.

Would not recommend this hotel to families, especially if you’re expecting a comfortable and safe environment for children.

Just a few suggestion - 1 please provide water bottles on a daily basis.
2) Also you can check with the guest if they need a towel change everyday. This will be an sustainable option.

Older property that needs another rejuvenation. Acceptable value. We were in 305 for 6 nights. Vinyl laminate floor is beat. Furniture was in good condition. Bed was great. Room attendants were very good. Floor could have been swept a bit better. Bathroom was spotless clean daily. Maintenance needs to do some grout clean up properly re grout shower and not slop another coat of caulking on the obvious leak that has damaged the door frame inside the bathroom. Shower is very good! I liked the \"do not disturb\" and \"clean room\" electronic system they have. Balcony was great. However current city view of this room is a re-construction area. Breakfast on 6th floor was great and the gentleman in the actual kitchen makes a good omelette! Very nice attendant in the breakfast room is very efficient and effective. Great smile and personality for the morning. One suggestion... don't put the business end of the cereal spoons up in the container! Always put the handle end up for people to select a spoon. Choices for breakfast were excellent. We mainly dealt with the very nice Ukrainian receptionist. Very helpful getting taxi etc. Hope she gets to London!!! Pool... I went in the water for less that a minute....brrrrr! Nice quiet place to catch the sun. We would stay here again. Larnaca is a good city to enjoy and walk to discover!

Great hotel overall - minor problems with noise outside the hotel as well as pool not being cleaned (partly to be expected out of season but still disappointing).

If you arrive by car you will have to find parking as there is car parking opposite but the entrance is rough and you may damage your car. Hotel is good clean and modern- I did not like being woken by construction works at 7am near the hotel- if your looking for a hotel really close to Finankoudes beach then it’s good

We have stayed at the Josephine Hotel many times but this stay was a little disappointing.
The room clean but the bed was not remade when the room was serviced. The air conditioning and T.V hardly worked properly during our stay.
Mini was empty except for 2 bottles of water even though there was a price list. We will try another hotel next time.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Josephine Boutique Hotel in Larnaka, and I can confidently say it’s an exceptional experience from start to finish.

Cleanliness & Comfort
The hotel’s immaculate cleanliness is immediately noticeable upon arrival, and every corner of the property reflects meticulous care. The rooms are airy and spacious, allowing natural light to fill the space and create a calming, comfortable atmosphere. It’s clear that great attention is paid to every detail, ensuring that guests feel pampered and relaxed throughout their stay.

Unmatched Convenience & Location
Situated just steps away from the pristine Finikoudes beach and surrounded by vibrant shopping areas, this hotel offers unbeatable convenience. Whether you’re planning a day at the beach or a shopping spree, everything is within easy reach. The central location makes it an ideal base for exploring the city’s many attractions.

Lovely Staff & Amenities
The staff at The Josephine Boutique Hotel are truly the heart of the experience. Their warm, friendly service and willingness to go the extra mile create a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. Adding to the appeal is the lovely roof pool, which provides breathtaking views over the sea—perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing.

Additionally, I discovered the nearby Smart Market, which I highly recommend for its very reasonable prices and convenience.

Hope this helps.

Отдых удался

В целом хороший отель в своей ценовой категории. Вид из номера на крыши соседних домов. Уборка ежедневно с утра. Море буквально за углом. Рядом много магазинов и ресторанов. Завтрак однообразный, но вполне себе для Европы. Несмотря на то, что отель находится в оживленном месте, в номере сравнительно тихо. Хотя, балконные двери лишены замков. Менеджеры на рецепшене дружелюбные
, однако, за два дня мы заказали ланч бокс, напомнив об этом за день до выезда. К нашему удивлению и разочарованию, при чек ауте нам было сказано, что мы ничего не заказывали. В целом, отель можно рекомендовать людям без особых претензий.

I unfortunately was moved to another hotel which was further than where I had booked, which made it very inconvenient for the time I had stayed. I am very not happy with the fact I was upgraded to a hotel that was further out from the town centre and was actually worth less but I paid a premium price. This would have to be the most disappointing stay I have ever had through Expedia

Too loud

I stayed in room 204 which faces the city centre. The amount of noise of cars, motorbikes and people was very disturbing. I couldnt sleep at nights and woke up early due to this. It felt like there werent any windows at all and all that noise was directly traveling inside the room. The windows should be sealed better to stop the noise coming in.
When inasked if I can get the room changed I was rudely denied with the excuse that the hotel was full, this was a lie because it was the end of November and the breakfast canteen was fairly empty.
I had booked it for 3 nights but left after 2 nights and checked into a different hotel because my short vacation was becoming more exhausting.

First floor room was large, comfortable, clean and convenient to attractions on the water front. The street which fronted the room’s nice balcony, was moderately busy until late at night, with the accompanying noise. Breakfast was great and the front desk staff was knowledgeable and helpful in pointing local attractions and in arranging transportation to the airport. It was was a wonderful stay with the noise being a mild bother.
