For anyone who is particularly interested in photography and wanting to capture the atmosphere you cannot fault the derelict Berengaria Hotel in Prodromos - past Troodos Square then head down behind it towards Prodromos village (not up towards the ski club or golf ball on Mount Olympus).

I captured these on Friday 3rd May:

My full blog post and more photos here http://wp.me/p1uja5-1Tn which also contains a short photo video uploaded to youtube in 2011 with images of before and after.

There was an article in the Cyprus Mail a few months ago indicating the hotel was going to undergo renovation but given the current financial crisis I can't see it going ahead in a hurry now. Certainly there were no signs of any work being carried it during our time there.

I hope you enjoy them!
