Paphian Bay, Paphos

Advantages: Everything!!
Disadvantages: nothing

...I stayed at this hotel for one week in July 2005. It was brilliant. The hotel looked classy from the inside and out, and was only a short way from the shops and restaurants in Paphos. Check In: I arrived at this hotel with 2 other family members, it was night time and we were all feeling tired and stressed. The check in to the hotel was quick, even though there was only one receptionist there. We quickly found our room on the bottom floor of the hotel, just a little way down the corridor. What we thought was the bottom floor was actually not though, as we found out, you had to go downstairs to get to the pool and the other facilities. Room: The rooms were lovely and spacious, with two big beds and large bathroom. In the bedroom there was a kettle, and everything else for making tea. The milk, coffee, sugar and teabags were refilled... Read review

Advantages: sunny, lots to see, reasonabley priced
Disadvantages: not many beaches

...is quite black. The best bet beach wise is Coral Bay which is a short bus ride out of Paphos , it isn’t a huge beach but there is sand coloured sand. Generally speaking Cyprus enjoys a sunny climate for most of the year. In April the average temperature is about 23/24 OC (sorry don’t know how to do the proper o) rising throughout the year and then dropping to 23/24 in November. Paphos has a number of archaeological sites which are interesting to see. The Tomb of the Kings is just outside Paphos and is easily reached by bus. The entry charge is very reasonable. Despite it’s name no one royal was buried just prominent local sorts. The tombs date from about the 3rd century BC. They are a series of bizarre underground holes edged into the ground along with impressive underground pillars, You can be all Indianna Jones exploring the different tombs... Read review

Advantages: Beautiful setting, helpful staff
Disadvantages: Quite a way from Paphos town centre

...We stayed at this Hotel in June and had originally booked two studio apartments but on arrival we were upgraded to a two bedroom villa this may have affected my opinion of this hotel. The only complaint we could possibly have made about this Hotel is it is not actually in Paphos, it is the last hotel on the 'Tomb of the Kings' road running out of Paphos, having said that we had a hire car so the distance wasn't a problem for us but if you were expecting to stay here and walk into Paphos you'd have a long walk. Right that is the complaint out of the way now for the good points. Firstly you must go to at least one of the Monday night BBQ's, not so much for the quality of the food but to watch the Greek dancing, the main male dancer was supported by one of the other dancers every time he did a kick, it was hilarious. We were advised... Read review
