The Mill Hotel

The Mill Hotel & restaurant is situated in the heart of Kakopetria. We were greeted by a charming man called Aris who showed us to our table where we had a panoramic view of the whole village. He recommended various Cypriot dishes which were absolutely sensational. Cypriot salad with Halloumi and home made marmalade. Filleted trout is their specialty and it was cooked to perfection. The Pork chop and chicken were lovely. The hand cut cyprus potato chips were the best I have had in cyprus. We finished our meal with cyprus coffee and the amazing walnut preserved in syrup, once again home made. An excellent lunch with great service. This is well worth the visit.

We had a lovely suite on the third floor. However what is not written anywhere is that to get to these rooms you have to walk up a steep, open stepped staircase, there must be people who have booked these rooms who could not walk up these stairs. We asked for assistance with our case which we readily got. The suite was very spacious with fantastic views. The choice at breakfast could have been better and you had to ask for toast (from a not very friendly lady). Our dinner experience was excellent and we couldn’t fault the food or service. The hotel is very traditional with lots of character.

The Mill Hotel seemed promising based on reviews I saw before booking. However it fell short of my expectations. For the price, I expected excellent service. Instead, I found the staff to be unhelpful. This was a drastic contrast to the warm welcome I found at every other stop in Cyprus. I would not stay again, obviously, and I wouldn't recommend the hotel to anyone else.

Dirty place, old disgusting furniture, aggressive personnel, the worst experience we ever had. The owner of the hotel aggressive, not following the law, saying that Cyprus is not Europe, that he is the god here and asking people he doesn’t like to leave.

the worst hospitality I ever experienced. we came to eat at the restaurant and we didn't have a reservation, they barely talked to us - that we should make a reservation in a very mean way, no welcoming no complement.. even they have many empty tables but said they can't take more customers! and left us standing there and go!!

We spent 3 nights here as part of a two week holiday in Cyprus. I'm so glad we took time away from the coast to visit the mountains and see a different side to the island. The hotel is a family run business and both the food and the accommodation were great. Don't be put off by the sombre outside of the hotel - it is a very welcoming and comfortable place. We had a family room with two extra beds added to accommodate all four of us - and it still felt spacious. After walking in the mountains (lots of great trails - ask at reception for a map), the jacuzzi bath was a bit of welcome relaxation. The breakfast buffet was delightful and varied each day. We ate dinner in the hotel on two nights. It was busy on the Sat night - with live music too - so definitely worth booking. I got the impression that people travelled to come here for a treat. The food was a mixture of traditional dishes and wider cuisine (I had a wonderful mushroom risotto one night then a spiced feta dish the next). They were very accommodating when I told them I was vegetarian and offered several options that weren't on the main menu. If I ever return to Cyprus, I would come here again.
