The Ajax Hotel sits in the heart of Limassol, Cyprus’s second-largest city and the island’s most dynamic urban destination. Limassol is a city that blends genuine Cypriot character with modern resort amenities — a long seafront promenade backed by palm trees, a beautifully restored Old Town of narrow streets and medieval architecture, a busy working port and a marina district lined with upscale restaurants and waterfront bars. The Ajax Hotel places guests in the middle of all of this, giving easy walking access to the city’s main attractions, beach strips and restaurant scene without the need for a hire car to enjoy what the destination has to offer.
The Ajax Hotel offers comfortable rooms with air conditioning, private bathroom and all the standard amenities expected of a well-run city-centre hotel in Cyprus. Guests benefit from the hotel’s convenient location for accessing both the beach areas along the Limassol coastal strip and the restaurants, cafés and bars of the Old Town and the marina. Limassol’s central position on the island also makes it an excellent base for day trips: the Troodos Mountains and their painted Byzantine churches, the Kourion archaeological site (one of Cyprus’s most spectacular ancient ruins with its cliff-top theatre overlooking the sea), and the resort areas of Pissouri and Lady’s Mile Beach are all accessible within an hour’s drive.
Limassol is a year-round destination with a character that sets it apart from Cyprus’s purpose-built resort towns. The Limassol Old Town (Ypsonas Quarter) has been extensively restored in recent years into a vibrant district of boutique shops, craft beer bars, traditional mezze restaurants and art galleries centred on the Limassol Castle — a medieval fortress containing the Cyprus Medieval Museum. The Limassol Marina, a short distance from the Old Town, is one of the Mediterranean’s most attractive waterfront developments, with superyachts, waterfront dining and a promenade atmosphere that comes alive in the evenings. The city’s main municipal beach runs along the seafront for several kilometres, and the beach bars and tavernas behind it are among the best on the island. For shopping, My Mall Limassol — one of the largest malls in Cyprus — is easily reachable from the city centre.

The Ajax Hotel is located in central Limassol, Cyprus — close to the Old Town, the seafront promenade and the marina district. This central position makes it easy to walk to the city’s main attractions, beaches and restaurants. Limassol is roughly equidistant between Larnaca and Paphos airports, with both approximately 65–70 km away and around an hour’s drive.
Limassol offers an exceptional range of things to do. The restored Old Town with its medieval castle and Cyprus Medieval Museum, the vibrant Limassol Marina, the long municipal beach and seafront promenade are all within easy reach on foot. Day trips from the city cover the Kourion cliff-top ancient theatre, the Troodos Mountains’ painted Byzantine churches, Lady’s Mile Beach and Pissouri — one of Cyprus’s most picturesque coastal villages.
Limassol sits roughly in the middle of Cyprus’s southern coast, approximately 70 km from Larnaca International Airport (LCA) and 65 km from Paphos International Airport (PFO) — around 50–60 minutes by road from either. Many UK package holiday operators offer transfers from both airports; for accommodation-only stays, taxis and private transfer services are available at both terminals.
Yes — Limassol has a long municipal beach running along its seafront, backed by a palm-lined promenade with beach bars and tavernas. The beach is a Blue Flag standard strip of sand and shingle, and the sheltered coastal position means sea conditions are generally calm. Beyond the city, some of Cyprus’s finest beaches — including Governor’s Beach and the remote Lady’s Mile Beach — are within easy driving distance for guests wanting more secluded options.
