Joining the Ranks of SLH’s Finest
LUXURY BOUTIQUE ELEVATED
We’re thrilled to share some exciting news that marks a significant milestone in The Agora’s journey. It is with immense pride and gratitude that we announce The Agora has officially joined the prestigious Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) collection.
For those who are unfamiliar, SLH offers a curated selection of some of the finest boutique hotels worldwide, chosen for their ability to deliver exceptional, intimate experiences that redefine what luxury can be. To be included in this collection is a true recognition of our dedication to the finest yet simplest details, personalised service, and authentic experiences that make every stay at The Agora unique.
What sets SLH apart is its focus on individuality, authenticity, and intimate guest experiences. Unlike larger hotel chains, SLH curates a collection of over 500 independent boutique hotels, each with its own unique character, story, and connection to its local culture. The emphasis is on providing personalised, luxurious stays where attention to detail, exceptional service, and a sense of place are paramount. SLH hotels often offer distinctive experiences that blend luxury with local charm, making every stay a reflection of the destination’s essence rather than a cookie-cutter experience.
A NEW CHAPTER IN HOSPITALITY
Being part of the SLH collection means that The Agora is now recognised globally among the best boutique hotels in the world. SLH's commitment to quality, individuality, and character aligns perfectly with our ethos of offering a 'way of living away from home' experience, where every guest feels personally welcomed and immersed in the essence of Lefkara.
For us, luxury isn’t just about beautiful spaces—though we take pride in the design and comfort of our rooms and communal areas. True luxury is found in the subtle details, the warmth of personal connections, and the unforgettable moments guests experience throughout their stay. This philosophy has set The Agora apart, and we are humbled that SLH has recognised these values as essential to the boutique luxury experience.
INTRODUCING LEFKARA TO THE WORLD
One of the most exciting aspects of joining the SLH collection is the opportunity to shine a brighter light on Lefkara, a UNESCO World Heritage village, we call home.
Our charming village is a timeless blend of cobbled streets, hand-crafted lace, and local charm. Nestled in the heart of the island, it offers a peaceful retreat with a rich cultural heritage, where tradition and the warmth of the community blend seamlessly. At The Agora, this serene setting is not just a backdrop but a way of life, inviting you to explore its quiet beauty at your own pace.
With only two other hotels in Cyprus sharing this prestigious honour, The Agora is now uniquely positioned to introduce to travellers the beauty, culture, and history of this special place.
Lefkara has long been known for its intricate lace-making and silver-work, traditions passed down through generations. By being part of SLH, we hope to inspire more guests to explore the rich heritage, stunning landscapes, and authentic experiences that make our village a true hidden gem in Cyprus.
OUR SUCCESS IS YOUR STORY
We wouldn’t be celebrating this achievement without you—our incredible community of guests and friends who have supported us along the way. Your trust, your stories, and your shared experiences have all contributed to making The Agora what it is today. This recognition belongs to you just as much as it does to us.
From the heartfelt reviews you’ve shared to the personal connections you’ve made with our team, every interaction is part of the fabric that makes The Agora more than just a hotel. It’s a place where memories are created, stories are shared, and every stay feels like coming home.
LOOKING AHEAD
Our induction into the SLH family is a new beginning. We remain committed to delivering the same personalised, thoughtful service you’ve come to know and love. As we look to the future, we’re excited to continue evolving, finding new ways to enhance our offerings while staying true to our roots and the values that define us.
Whether you're a first-time visitor or a returning guest, we invite you to experience The Agora anew—a place where the beauty of Lefkara meets the warm embrace of our boutique luxury.
Thank you for being a part of our journey, and we can’t wait to welcome you to The Agora, now part of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World.
Here’s to creating even more moments together.
