Vrissiana Beach Hotel Protaras Cyprus

Can anyone tell me if you can upgrade from half board to all inclusive at the hotel on arrival and if so, what is the price?

Many thanks

    You could always e-mail them and ask or ask your travel agent if you used one.

    What Ganga says.
    My casual observations on hotels that offer AI on arrival is that it is a bit more expensive than if you had done so at the time of reservation. Not much in it I reckon.
    I believe some hotels may let you add on a certain number of days after arrival - it's not written in tablets of stone that you can only buy in 7 or 14 nights.
    I'm not an AI person, except when son (once) and grandkids (once) were with us.

    I have emailed the hotel but not getting a response ... thought forumites might have some experience.  We booked online not via a travel agent and thought maybe it would be cheaper to upgrade at hotel rather than through package holiday site.

    There's also a phone number on here, maybe worth a try ....

    Failing that, you could perhaps try asking on http://www.easterncyprus.com/index.php but it's mainly full of ex-pat residents.

    I wouldn't think it would be cheaper, but that's just a gut feeling.
    Maybe you could get a mate to email the hotel and ask the same question in a more genral roundabout manner ?
    Something like " we were thinking about making a half board booking but might want to upgrade to All Inclusive when we arrive, can you please advise details ? ".
    Good luck.
    Does this help ?
