..... the tourist numbers are down! We went to the wedding of two friends yesterday in an hotel on Dhekelia Road, Larnaca. Before the ceremony we had a drink at the bar, and I was staggered to discover that they charged €3.50 for a pint of Keo! The most I've paid anywhere else in the vicinity is €2.25, and usually less. Hardly the way to attract the much sought after and needed tourist pound!

Doesn't all hotels everywhere in the world charge way above than the normal prices for drinks and food than local bars and restaurant, Skyvet.?

Tourist numbers are down because of the crisis.

Yes they do - but that doesn't make it right!

Relax people, the tourist industry must make way for the oil & gas industry!

Besides, once we start pumping out the black gold you think anyone will want to visit our beaches? :lol:

Maybe it's the contradiction with Cyprus being a communist country ... they should be sharing more :lol:
