Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had its ups and downs during my stay. The room was a reasonable size for the two of us, but the bathroom and bedroom conditions were not the best. The leaky toilet and rock-hard beds were major drawbacks. On the bright side, the service from all members of staff was friendly and very helpful, and the hotel had clean facilities and a decent-sized pool. The location was decent, close to the harbor, but some aspects could be improved. The dining experience had its moments, with room for enhancement in the breakfast options.
The hotel offered spacious and well-furnished rooms with aircon/heating, but the lack of nearby shops or beach was a downside. The service was friendly and receptive, though some staff members appeared moody at times. The location was great for exploring the center of Paphos, but the behavior of certain bar staff made me feel uneasy. The dining experience provided limited and often stale food, yet a barbecue option was available. The facilities were average, with some issues like water pressure in the showers.
Despite some comfort issues with the rooms like overlooking a busy highway and a leaky toilet, the hotel offers a cozy and nicely decorated stay akin to a good three-star place. On the downside, the loud noise from the main road can be unsettling, impacting the overall experience negatively.
The hotel offers comfortable and nicely decorated rooms but also has some serious damp issues. The service is predominantly friendly and efficient, although some negative interactions were reported. The location is convenient, with great facilities and a mixed dining experience.
The hotel is conveniently located, about 15 minutes away from the harbor and restaurants, making it a decent spot to relax. The rooms were old and dingy, with dirty towels and a gross floor, but being in a wheelchair, I appreciated the placement in the annex for accessibility. The lack of cleanliness with unchanged sheets and towels all week was disappointing, reflecting the lower cost you pay for the stay.
The hotel had some positive aspects, like the convenient location within walking distance to the beach, city center, and harbor. However, some negative points included the loud main road nearby and unprofessional behavior from certain staff members. Overall, it was a mixed experience.
The hotel was in a very dated place with serious damp issues in both the bedroom and bathroom. The rooms are pretty basic and worn, needing a deep clean. The service was mixed, with some staff being nice, while others were rude and loud. The location had both positive and negative aspects, from a nice bar area to grubby surroundings. The dining experience varied from poor choices to good options like juicy steaks. The facilities are decent but could use improvements.
The hotel rooms were comfortable and nicely decorated, matching the standard for a very good three-star establishment. Despite some issues like dampness and lack of nearby shops or beach access, the stay was overall comfortable.
The hotel location in Paphos is quite nice, overseeing an impressive swimming pool area. The rooms are dingy and old, lacking clean sheets and towels, and in need of a refurbishment. The service, including the chef and restaurant staff, is very polite and helpful, maintaining a clean environment around the pool. The dining experience was subpar with limited and poor-quality breakfast choices. However, the hotel staff ensure a fantastic time with their friendliness and helpfulness.
The hotel offers basic rooms with a small bathroom that lacks proper ventilation, but they are always clean. While the stay was far from perfect due to some issues like cockroaches and extra charges for amenities, the friendly service from staff members like Jamie and Victoria helped improve the experience. The location, overlooking a swimming pool area, can be a relaxing setting despite some maintenance issues. The dining experience was subpar with limited and repetitive choices, making it a challenging aspect of the stay.
