The Accor Group, a major French hotel chain, recently made an official announcement about the opening of its first unit in Cyprus. The Mercure brand will debut in April 2023 at the former Michael's hotel in the Oroklini beach area. The five-star Radisson Beach Resort hotel, which debuted in October, is just a short distance away. This is yet another branded hotel that has been added to Larnaca's hotel inventory. Larnaca appears to be quietly but steadily developing into a desirable investment location, particularly in the tourism and hospitality industries. NCH Capital and the Quality group of companies are leading these multi-million dollar investments in the area, which are taking place in Oroklini and Pyla as well as the center of Larnaca.
In addition, Holiday Inn Express
The Quality group of companies, which includes an InterContinental Hotels Group brand, is expected to add four hotels to Larnaca's hotel map. According to an update from the Larnaca Tourism Development and Promotion Company, the group is planning to begin construction of a luxury hotel unit of a large foreign chain in the Oroklini area around mid-2023. The new unit, which will have around 200 rooms, will be built on 15,000 square meters of land next to the "Golden Fish." The Holiday Inn Express on Makarios Avenue will be added to the city's brand palette. This is a city hotel with 53 rooms that will provide services using robots, reducing the need for staff. It will, in fact, be Cyprus's first robotic hotel. The Quality Group has upgraded two abandoned hotels in Pyla, including the former Stavros Hotel, which will now carry the Best Western brand and the former Aris Hotel. The two hotels will be upgraded with the goal of opening as licensed category A apartments in summer 2023.

Troy and Beau Rivage
The Environmental Authority approved the Troy Resort & Spa development in the Pyla area of "SYNIGA PROPERTIES LTD," a subsidiary of NCH Capital Cyprus, in July. It is a €40 million tourist resort investment that includes three building complexes and 280 condo-style apartments. The project is scheduled to begin operations in 2023. The Beau Rivage Hotel & Residences, a €35 million investment, is also undergoing renovations. According to the company's plans, it will be a mixed tourism development with 111 rooms and 66 apartments. Floating Scapes, an 85 million euro project, will also proceed. It is also a mixed tourism development that, according to plans, will include the construction of a five-star resort with a 220 room hotel, 88 apartments, and 10 villas (to be operated under the umbrella of the hotel). The residential units will be for sale and will be suitable for both residential and tourist purposes. The development will take up a 33 thousand square meter plot on Pyla's coastal front. The resort will be branded by a major international hotel chain, with NCH considering specific proposals for chains that do not currently operate in the province of Larnaca. At the same time, the company is working on the construction of a boutique hotel called St. Lazarus Hotel. This is a 10 million euro investment with a capacity of 60 rooms in the St. Lazarus area. 
The Beau Rivage Hotel & Residences is also undergoing a facelift, an investment of 35 million euros.
In the town center
In addition to the previously mentioned Holiday Inn Express on Makarios Avenue, the new Pallas Hotel is set to open soon. The hotel has 43 luxurious rooms, including 6 suites equipped with smart technology. The site will also include a restaurant, a swimming pool, a gym, and a roof garden with a sky bar that can accommodate 40 people. The Indigo Hotel, an international brand of the Intercontinental Hotels Group, is already open near the city center, near St. Lazarus Church.
Radisson and Mercure
The new Solaar Hospitality hotel, now known as the Mercure Beach Hotel Larnaca, is set to open in April 2023. This is Cyprus's first Mercure hotel, paving the way for more to open on the island. The new five-story building has 60 rooms, including a few suites and three villas in the same space, and the majority of the rooms, like the villas, will have a sea view. On the ground floor, there will also be spa services (jacuzzi and sauna) and a gym. There will also be a restaurant serving Mediterranean fusion cuisine. An open-air bar, as well as a beach bar and pool bar, will be located on the hotel's roof.
Another branded hotel that has been added to the Larnaca hotel portfolio is the five-star Radisson Beach Resort, which opened in October.
After a three-year delay due to the pandemic's effects on the investment sector, the second Radisson hotel in Larnaca finally opened in October. The Radisson Beach Resort Larnaca is a five-star hotel. The facility can accommodate 202 people. There are also suites, three restaurants and a lounge bar, conference and event rooms, and a spa and wellness center.
