On the one hand I enjoyed the hotel, and yet if I returned to Paphos I probably would try someplace else.
The good: the bedrooms are big and well equipped with kitchen stuff. Nice sea view, nice little porch. Bathroom ok (so much mould in the shower head, actually made me feel sick). Air con worked well. The pool seemed way too small and crowded and the beach was pebbly, but ok to swim. Nice views. Liked the little shop outside the hotel. Didn’t try any of the food or drinks, so can’t comment. They arranged a taxi for airport pick up, that was good, and good communications before arrival.
The not so good: we were in a room near the restaurant and bar, so the evening entertainment, which goes until midnight, kept us up. Irritating! Either put party animals near the bar or get better insulation. Reception staff were a bit odd - they’d ring your room with a relatively unfriendly attitude. The games room was ok, but there was no chalk for the cues for pool.
The really bad: The health club was only open 11am to 6pm, a ridiculous window, really not at all suitable as it implies that guests are staying put at the hotel instead of out and about (should be open at least 6am to 9 or 10pm). Add to this, the towel swap time was only 10 to 12, and 2-4, again completely unsuitable. As I tool tours out every day I never managed to use a towel and had to use bath ones and the ones I brought with me for tours instead. Again, careless consideration for guests needs.
