Come to Ride, Relax and Recharge
May 28, 2025... With its sun-drenched roads, coastal breezes, and challenging mountain climbs, Cyprus is fast becoming a must-visit destination for cyclists from around the world. And at the heart of it all lies The Agora Hotel, a boutique, cyclist-friendly haven nestled in the picturesque village of Lefkara—offering the perfect blend of performance, luxury, and local charm.
Located between the mountains and the Mediterranean Sea, The Agora Hotel caters to cycling enthusiasts looking for an unforgettable ride-and-relax experience. With Cyprus recently named one of the “Best Cycling Destinations in Europe” by Epic Road Rides and recognized for its year-round training conditions and diverse terrain, Cyprus offers a fresh alternative to more saturated spots like Mallorca. Owned and run by Aleksander Eng, a passionate cyclist himself, the hotel was designed from the ground up with riders in mind.
Why Cyprus?
Cyprus offers a year-round cycling season with over 300 days of sunshine, quiet roads, and diverse natural landscape. Riders can take on epic mountain ascents, cruise along stunning coastal stretches, or explore sleepy stone villages and ancient ruins along the way. With low traffic, friendly locals, and routes for all levels, it’s a destination that’s as rewarding as it is beautiful. With its rich cultural heritage, well-preserved traditions, and expanding cycling infrastructure, Cyprus is quickly emerging as one of Europe’s most sought-after cycling destinations.
Why The Agora Hotel?
Custom Cycling Programs: Guided rides, curated route maps, and personalized training support are available for all skill levels.
Premium Road Bike Rentals:The hotel has built their very own fleet of Factor O2 Disc Carbon road bikes with custom Agora colours, Shimano Ultegra Di2 and Black Inc Wheels. Exclusively for Agora residents to rent during their stay.

Set in a restored heritage building that marries modern design with traditional Cypriot architecture, The Agora is more than just a place to stay—it’s a hub for exploration, community, and connection. Agora translates to “a place to gather,” and as a former marketplace the owners have created a new gathering spot in this adult only luxury boutique hotel of 18 rooms and suites. The hotel remains anchored to the community while welcoming travelers who wish to explore Cyprus and delve into the magic of this corner of the island.
The public spaces and the pool patio expand seating for guests for lounging and for dining. Restaurant Novél, the beloved all-day bistro embraces a fresh take on French bistronomy, rooted in Mediterranean ingredients and designed for sharing. You can start your engine in the morning with the freshest eggs from Ygea Farm. For many, coffee is equally as important as a night's rest. For coffee aficionados, the Agora imports a single estate Brazilian bean that is delivered super fresh. It is then roasted to an exact preference by a local master roaster ensuring deep satisfaction in every sip.
The Bar is a casual, welcoming yet sophisticated living room for guests and has been adopted by locals as one of their own. Enjoy snacks and platters throughout the day or dive into our signature cocktails - choose from carefully curated Classics or a seasonal like Agora's Enzoni with Gin, local Green grapes, Campari, and lemon - served in a mid century, fluted low ball glass. The wine list is handpicked including some of the best regions in the world as well as Greek and local Cypriot indigenous varieties.
