We stayed at this hotel for 2 weeks at the beginning of April. We were very pleased with our room which was bigger than most as it was designed to sleep 4 but had had one bed removed. Might have been a bit small for 4. The cleanliness was excellent, maid service and clean towels every day. Location of the hotel not good, there is a bus stop outside where you can get a bus to the harbour or Coral Bay but it cost 1.20 euro each way with no half fares for children. We hired a car for our second week (much cheaper along the road than through the hotel) The beach at the hotel is awful. The hotel staff were very helpful. My son has a food allergy (coeliac). I e-mailed the hotel prior to our visit and made sure they could cater for his diet.He was supplied with gluten free bread and the chef went round the buffet every evening to tell him what he could eat. The animation team worked very hard, entertainment was not wonderful, but it probably depends on what you want. There were a lot of older people at the hotel who had been back several times.

We couldn't fault this hotel - excellent from start to finish, will definitely be going back next year

Just arrived back from this hotel.

The rooms and the hotel were spotless.

The food was excellent plenty of choice even for fussy eaters like my daughter.

The location was a little out of the way from the town and shops but it wasn't really a problem because the bus stop is right outside the hotel and they run every 15 minutes.

The staff were excellent, nothing was too much trouble for them, the daytime activities and evening entertainment was also very good.

I would recommend this hotel and would definitely go again, hoping to go in September.

We had an absolutely fantastic time at this hotel. Its a 3 star hotel, but feels far grander and far more relaxed. The main points we loved were:

The food, was exceptional. One member of our party is a fussy eater and took great delight in enjoying the roast beef and yorkshires, whilst the rest of us were a little more daring with the local cuisine. But of course the full english breakfast went down a treat with all of us!

The hotel staff were amazing and we received an extremely attentive service from several of the wairesses and the cocktails were delicious although beware of the ticket to bed!

The entertainments team seemed to be around 24/7 and there was always something going on for you to join in with!

We have just returned from an all inclusive holiday/wedding, my son got married at the town hall last Wednesday.

The hotel staff were absolutely fantastic couldn't do enough for you, as soon as glasses were empty the hard working waiters were there refilling.

We asked for room on low floor with pool view, our room was b24 which was quiet and central for every area of hotel, did not have to use lift and pool just outside room.

The reception was at the hotel, as bride and groom arrived back from town hall red carpet was out and wedding march was played, the area the atrium bar was roped off for the afternoon, hotel staff really looked after all of us.

Table was set up in corner of dining room nicely decorated, wedding cake supplied by hotel was delicious.
Pool was cleaned every day and area around pool was clean although rather slippery.

Food was plentiful and always hot and plenty of choice.
Room was on small side but did not stay in there much during day.

Would definately return to this hotel.

Booked with Thomson - have to admit, no problems.

Hotel, immaculate, cleaning all the time. We changed room on day of arrival due to noisy disco close to front of hotel. Then allocated room B24, on ground level, close to pool. Can recommend this room to families and 2 persons. It was really quiet there with no noise of floors, lifts, doors, etc etc.

Food - 5 out of 5. Inclusive can be repetative. This was fine with themed nights(greek, Indian, Chinese, Italian) as well. We ate well and drank moderately.

Location - we gave it 4 as it is a bit out of the way. But for us at our age it was great. Simply no noise, very relaxing holiday. However, bus stop right outside hotel, running every 20 or so minutes, for short journey to Paphos Harbour.

Hotel staff - first class. Very helpful at reception and especially so in restaurant.

Entertainment - for children, Mmmmm? For adults, something everynight if you wanted it.

Definately yes. The price was right. We got what we paid for. There may be better I have no doubt, but this was fine for us.

Just arrived back from getting married in Cyprus and this has to be the best hotel we have ever stayed in so far.

From the moment we arrived we were treated like royallty we couldnt believe how genuinley the staff were to help.
On the day of the wedding we had 34 gueast that were not staying in our hotel and it only cost 30 cypriot pounds for a day pass, and believe me, it was well worth it.

The amount of cocktails that were available was great and the staff were on hand to fill you a drink when your glass was empty.

We had a red carpet and a champagne toast followed by our dinner located outside of the resturant for a bit of privacy. The flowers were fab and the set out was out of this world it was very stress free.

The food was the best part about this hotel as it was always fresh and plenty of it too. More than enough for those fussy eaters such as the kids.

Just arrived back from two weeks all inclusive at the Phaethon.

We also got married whilst we were out there.

Cleanliness- The hotel was immaculate and the cleaning staff worked tirelessly. Very friendly and could be seen working from 6am to midnight. Nothing was too much trouble for them if you wanted extra towels they were availabel from cleaning staff or reception.

Food and Drink- Although the food was very nice the choice was often not that great. Not alot of veg available. The yoghurt was amazing though as was the roast beef from the carvery. Breakfast was a dissapointment and the scrambled egg was nothing short of vile. Drinks were also a let down only had lager local Keo or Carlsberg no bitters guiness etc available. Also spirits were either strong enought to get you drunk one one drink or so watered down you couldnt taste the alcohol.

Entertainment- Daytime entertainment there was plenty to do and the team worked very hard at keeping you busy but they werent pushy. Evening entertainment was ok the uv show was great also the hypnotist show was a right laugh. Other than that though it was very poor like butlins abroad. And the nightclub was two song after the entertainment.

Staff- Reception staff were very friendly nothing was too much trouble.

Food and beverage manager- Was absolutely lovely great help with our wedding plans.

Waiters and waitresses- did a grand job service was sometimes slow but the hotel was very busy whilst we were there so to be expected. Abbas and Imran were lovely and nothing was too much trouble.

Rooms and decor- The rooms had ample space but do take extra coathangers, decor was a bit tired, and beware the showers run VERY hot or cold at times we got burned three times from the showers. BE VERY CAREFUL if you have kids.

This hotel is quite far out of the resort and to get to the main area was a taxi or bus ride away taxi about 5 cyp pound or buses every 15 mins at about 60 cents.

If you want a holiday were you want to see paphos cyprus then hire a car as it is quite spread out.

All in all hotel was good I would say low 3 star hotel though. I wouldnt go back to this hotel again due to food and drink variety and location.

Returned 2 days ago from this hotel - would rate it as a 3 star. Had two adjoining rooms on the third floor with a sea view which was lovely and we had the added bonus of interconnecting doors which we hadn't asked for and were a great benefit as our 4 children slept in the adjoining room with the interconnecting door open.

The rooms were spotlessly clean with towel changes every second day and bed linen changed twice a week. However the bathrooms are very small and need updating - the showers were awful and the shower head kept moving around when you stood underneath it! My husband had to wrap a piece of string around the shower head and hose to stop it moving - not what you expect at a hotel which charged us nearly

I have just returned from the Phaethon Hotel with my husband and 14 year old daughter.

We stayed all inclusive for 2 weeks and the hotel more than met our expectations. The cleaners were constantly at work and our room and en suite were spotless throughout our stay.

On arrival, 11.30 p.m. Cyprus time, there was sandwiches and fresh orange juice in our room, most welcome! The food was fantastic, with plenty of choice throughout the day; both the restaurant and the pool bar maintaining an exceptionally high standard.

The location of the hotel was a little inconvenient if one wanted to go into Paphos, as a taxi or bus was required, however, the bus stop was just outside the hotel and buses were frequent.

The famous Paphos Aphrodites Water Park was a 5 minute walk from the hotel. The location was more than compensated by the fact that the hotel provided everything we wanted, being situated on the beach with watersports such as canoeing, pedalos, jet skies, waterski-ing, banana boat, etc. The watersports centre also provided car hire and various excursions such as jeep safari and water safari, etc.

The hotel staff could not be faulted. The waiters were friendly and helpful, constantly on the lookout for the needs of residents. Receptionists ever ready to help and all staff were rigourously supervised.

Entertainment was adequate, with bingo, kids club, kareoke, etc.

The pool was cleaned every morning. However, the pool did get very busy during the day and we preferred to stay in the beach area, where there was sunbeds with protection from the sun provided by palm trees. Life guards were on duty during the busy periods.

We would certainly visit this hotel again.
