Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers nice, comfy rooms equipped with necessary amenities, but they are showing signs of age. The service is top-notch with friendly staff and excellent assistance. The location is convenient, though not in a touristy area. The dining experience is satisfactory but could have more variety. The facilities are well-maintained and functional.
The hotel is situated right in the heart of the old town, making it convenient for exploring Paphos. The rooms, while a bit outdated with worn-out bedspreads, still offer a comfortable stay. The service, although not initially accepting credit cards as advertised, turned out to be kind and hospitable. The dining experience, featuring traditional and tasty food, provided a glimpse into the past. The location is fantastic, with easy access to key tourist sites and a vibrant night scene.
The hotel is situated in the heart of the old town with views of a beautiful old church, offering a basic yet functional stay. The rooms had issues like small bedding not fitting the large bed, exposing the mattress edges, and an almost unusable shower with tepid water. A longer shower curtain would have been preferable for keeping the bathroom floor dry.
