My stay at the Merit Nicosia was a mixed bag. While the breakfast served was impressive and the service, especially from staff like Ezgi and Evrim, was top-notch, I faced significant issues with access to certain amenities and the overall atmosphere of the hotel. The dining options were severely lacking, particularly the kebab house, which was disappointing and not reflective of a five-star experience. The hotel's amenities were decent but could use some serious upgrades to be truly inviting.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. While the cleanliness and friendly demeanor of the staff stood out, the overwhelming smell of cigarette smoke in the rooms really detracted from my experience. Dining options were disappointing, especially the lunch and dinner menu, but the breakfast was quite good. The hotel's location near local attractions is a plus, yet the parking situation was frustrating. Overall, it’s not the five-star experience I expected.

My experience at the Merit Hotel in Nicosia was a mix of highs and lows. While the cleanliness of the hotel and the friendliness of some staff members were standout features, the overall customer service experience left much to be desired. The dining options, particularly if you're a non-smoker, were quite disappointing. Also, parking was a challenge, making my stay more frustrating than relaxing.

My stay at the Merit Lefkosa Hotel was a mixed bag. On one hand, the hotel boasts a lovely garden area, helpful staff, and clean rooms. On the other hand, I was overwhelmed by the strong smell of cigarettes throughout the property, and dining options left much to be desired, especially the lunch and dinner menus. While the breakfast was decent, it could definitely improve. Overall, the hotel could use some upgrades and better ventilation.
