At Herbal Boutique Hotel & Spa

Clean and smells very nice but not a 5 star hotel

Its an amazing place, very friedly

We went to this hotel back in June this year with friends & family , we had a great holiday and decided to go back in October for my birthday. We were having a fabulous time there and as we only do B&B were able to meet up with friends & family (who live & stay in the area) for our dinners in the evening, take walks along the coast and have our catch ups with them. BUT !!!! all that started to change when the hotel started to erect some sort of construction around the pool - moved all the loungers and were busy chopping palm trees for their palms. We asked a member of staff what’s was happening only to be told there was to be over 250 guests coming who had hired the complete hotel for their religious festival holidays and then asked us when we were leaving like other guests had been asked to leave !!! We said we weren’t leaving as we had another week to go , but we then found out and spoke to others who were being evicted from the hotel in favour of these other people arriving!! So we asked the manager would we be affected by what was happening, he categorically stood there and assured us no. !! But when these people started arriving it was chaos, there were so many . We continued with our holiday, but were made to feel VERY uncomfortable by these other guests as we were “outsiders “ and that was made very apparent. So there were still other guests of our ilk there and they were being asked to go to other hotels ! This being arranged by “said manager”, but, we still were clinging on , then finally last week on the Wednesday morning, we had heard some banging of sorts on the landing , we get up to find the water had been turned off to our rooms, thus forcing us down to reception to be told by the manager that we had to move out and that he’d booked us in another hotel (which then ended up a 15 min drive away in the middle of no where ) and ruined our second week away from our holiday with friends and family he didn’t care and he knew that there weren’t problems with pipes etc as he lied to us about the water , we know that each room can be accessed to turn off certain pipes in case of emergency He stood there barefaced lying to us and then there were other of “these guests” arriving and we heard the reception telling them that they were just waiting for us to check out and their rooms would be ready !!!!! We were treated disgustingly and lied to and our tour operator was agog at what Herbal hotel had done . It cost us heavily to stay in the new hotel as we had our holiday plans in Pernera and we were sent to the edge of Asia Nappa, it cost us travelling back to meet friends & family and lost time Happy Sukkot to the Jewish community who took over the hotel at our expense, the hotel knew they were coming and SHOULD NOT HAVE ACCEPTED THE BOOKING FOR US AND-OTHER PEOPLE FROM THE UK VIA JET2 , but they did and then evicted us to suit their own greed for money from the other party of guests - disgusting

We booked this hotel months ago arrived at larnaca airport on 14th oct. jet2 rep greeted us and said are booking had been changed as there was a problem with the room At herbal hotel jet2 was amazing and we was placed at aqua blue hotel. we meet others who had been moved out of the At herbal. And new guests where arriving at same time I did hear that the hotel was supporting people escaping the war.

We arrived after having booked months ago. Told there was a sewage problem but interestingly other guests were happily booking in. They looked like part of a large booking so suspect we just got cancelled to accommodate a private party. This correlates with another reviewer 6 days ago which is when we arrived. Thanks to booking with Jet2 they moved us to another hotel but we had chosen this hotel to be close to others as we are here for a wedding. We were a bit further out of town but the hotel was fabulous. Leonardo Crystal Cove. I’d book that instead if you are reading this review! At least you won’t get bumped for higher paying customers.

We had a great stay. The hotel is pretty clean, finished to a high spec and offers good value for money. The food and drinks were tasty but they could have been more varied. The beach is only 5 minutes away, and there are restaurants within a 15 minute walk. The staff were very good and the rooms are nice. If you're wondering what the catch is, the pool doesn't get any sun for most of the afternoon. This was fine for us in October as it was still 30°.
