"We had a wonderful stay here for 3 nights. We stayed in a junior Sonesta suite. It was very large with a nice small balcony overlooking the pool. The staff from check-in to cleaning to breakfast, were all wonderful - pleasant, interesting and helpful. Breakfast was very generous and individualized. The location is superb, just a block from the Mediterranean promenade. Would absolutely return."

"Very unique property, with very friendly, helpful and professional staff. We will certainly return."

"One of the best European hotels I’ve stayed at. Large property and they have done an excellent job to maintain it. Staff very friendly and attentive. Took advantage of transport to town (walked back) exercise classes and spa. Would recommend to anyone staying in paphos. Great breakfast too!"

"Very clean room, nice and modern , friendly staff and allowed us to check in a bit early too, comfortable bed "

" Arrived at around midnight to a friendly welcome from the staff including a cool lemonade and a hot towel. On arriving in our room we had been left a bottle of fizz and some sandwiches which was so nice. The room was spacious and clean, we had a sea view room. each day we were provided with water and a chocolate. Breakfast was good, a buffet with plenty of choice. All the staff were courteous and friendly. There was plenty of space outside to either chill on a really comfy sunbed or chairs, there were even some sunbeds by the beach. We had gone for our wedding anniversary, not that we had told them but they must have seen the cards on the side and we came back one evening to another bottle of fizz and truffles. It is about a 30 minute walk to the harbour along the coastal path but you can get the bus from outside of the hotel. We would definitely stay again "

"Lovely staff and great facilities"

"The Thalassa is a great place to stay, steps down to the beach are nearby. Also a supermarket close by and a restaurant Legends which does good food. The service was exemplary at the hotel. All the staff are super friendly. Would definitely stay here again."

"Property is well located, the building itself is huge. It took a bit of time to really enjoy the the hotel, a lot of details caught our attention away, such as no plastering done after minor ceiling repairs, carpets were stained at places, one star knocked off at hotel entrance sign (literally). A bit of ants in the room corner. Tiny children play area. After a day or two, we have experienced friendly staff, mostly great tasting food/drinks, very warm indoor swimming pool and knowing the great value that we are getting, most negatives were out of our sight. Good gym, new equipment Free sauna and expensive massage therapists La carte rooftop restaurant is spectacular Food pretty good, same as drinks Great location Easy parking Good sized rooms Friendly staff Free waterpark 1min away on foot. Super value. Mostly boring evening entertainment, not engaging most quests. 1/3 are actual entertainment. Overal I would come again if I get a good deal on it. It feels like a cashcow for Tsokkos hotel group which it is, but they do provide good value for quests. So all is good here. "

"We loved everything about this hotel! Fantastic family connected rooms (family of x4 with young children), lovely heated pools inside and out, the best breakfast we ever had in Cyprus and beyond. Lovely approachable staff that will accomodate every aspect you could ever wish for. Yes its more exoensive than alot of the competition but it is definitively worth it and certainly worthy of its x5 star status. If we ever return to Pafos, then we will stay here!"
