Golden Palms Guest House is a guest house in Surlariçi, the walled old town of Gazimağusa (Famagusta) in Northern Cyprus. The Lala Mustafa Paşa Mosque is just a few steps away, and Othello Castle is a short walk through the old town lanes. Santa Napa Guest House is practically next door, with Royal Goddess also within easy walking distance; the ancient city of Salamis is a short drive north.
Inside the walls, some lanes are narrow and not every street can be reached by car. Your driver will take you to the nearest accessible point to the guest house and help with your bags for the last stretch, so luggage that is easy to wheel or carry over a short distance makes the arrival simpler.
Distances as the crow flies; walking times are estimates.
| Place | Distance | On foot |
|---|---|---|
| Lala Mustafa Paşa Mosque | 90 m | 2 min walk |
| Othello Castle | 360 m | 5 min walk |
| Salamis Ancient City | 7.1 km | by car |
Expect about 55 min from the hotel to the terminal. Leave at least 3 h before a domestic flight and 4 h before an international one, and a little earlier in high season.
