DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME

Each year on the last weekend of March, Daylight Saving Time comes into effect in Cyprus and all clocks are advanced by one hour.
On the last weekend in September, Cyprus reverts to Standard Time.

DRY CLEANING / LAUNDRY

Dry cleaning takes usually two days. Fast dry-cleaning and quick-wash-and-dry services are also available on the island. Dry cleaners are located in the central part of each town, and they can be traced through the yellow pages of the Cyprus Telephone Directory.

Most dry-cleaners have pick-up and home delivery services.

Most hotels have laundry service for hotel residents. In case laundry service is not provided by certain hotels, arrangements can be made through the hotel Reception. 

The same arrangements also apply for Dry cleaning service.
