It was in August 2019. Overall, it's not bad.... It's clean, the room is cleaned every day. The food is good, breakfast (buffet, as everywhere and always, there is everything for any meal, coffee is really great, but you won't go hungry) lunch, if not included, you can buy, they will bring a small menu, very small, the food is not very good, it's better to go somewhere nearby, tablecloths are laid for dinner candles, drinks for a fee, something new from food every day, (there is no translation into Russian on the signs, it was not very convenient for me, who did not speak) Everything is delicious and satisfying... Wine in Cyprus is not very good, we drank tea, payment either at the exit of the hall or at the reception afterwards)
The room is small, very small, uncomfortable pillows, small (thin) air conditioning did not work, I had to throw the mattress on the floor and sleep on the floor.... There is no sea view! Well, you can see him...but not that....
the hotel is located so that the windows either face the courtyard (there are huge disadvantages), or the road.. . at 6 a.m., the staff starts arriving... well, it's such a pleasure..
About the courtyard, a huge swimming pool, an animator works there (speaks only English), the music is screaming (and the same) annoying, you get tired very quickly. You know yourself that you want to relax, well, where to go.... the pool is not washed, it is warm, and then it began to stink rotten and there is dirt on the walls (fu and be) .... there are few sun beds and there are not enough of them, not everyone has umbrellas. There was a lot of white with the sun beds, especially gifted foreigners (this was not observed for Russians, but then we realized that if you want to lie down, do the same), got up early in the morning and threw a towel, and it doesn't matter whether they lie down or not, 40% of the sun beds are just occupied with towels and no one is there all day. It's not nice, others could come and rest... Well, it's doubtful about the music... The staff is polite, almost everyone speaks Russian, but not willingly.
foreigners behave very badly, and 90% of them, especially children, but no one will make remarks to them, because there is a cult of children in Cyprus.
Then there is a pool between the houses, small, but the problems are the same, dirty, warm. It's a long way to the sea!!! it's not close, but you can't swim in it, because of the rocks, and it takes 20 minutes to walk to the beach!!!! and there are no toilets, showers, footwashers.... in the other direction, too, 20 minutes, supposedly urban, there is a toilet, shower, washbasin, cafe... but the beach is full of rocks, or go along the pier and go down, well, what if you can't swim. And go to the beaches through other people's hotels! The bar is not delicious either...
The hotel confidently claims to be a 3+ category. Large territory, two pools for adults and one for children. Spacious rooms with balconies, high-quality cleaning. The breakfasts are quite varied for three stars. Friendly staff at the reception. I was pleasantly pleased with the compliment from the hotel: a bottle of Italian wine and a plate of fruit.
What you need to know, I book this hotel. The sea and the nearest beach are 450 meters away. But this beach, as well as the neighboring one, to put it mildly, are not very suitable for swimming. The entrance is rocky and unpleasant due to the abundance of algae (like seaweed). To swim enough and with pleasure, you will have to walk a kilometer beyond the museum territory of Kings' Tombs (graves of the kings). There's a beautiful sea beyond them!
So decide:-)
We went with Biblio Globus. Good location of the hotel. The best in the price-quality ratio. 108 thousand for two people for 10 days in October. The room stock is average, but if you do not sit in the room and do not find fault, the interior will not spoil the rest)
Decent, albeit monotonous, buffet breakfasts. But delicious dinners on the menu. The staff is helpful, cleaning is daily.
There is a bus stop nearby to the sandy beach of Coral Bay. Although we searched for new swimming spots on our own every day, we were interested in trying different beaches along the coast and outside of Paphos.
The hotel is suitable for outdoor enthusiasts, for those who do not sit still and like to look for adventures)
They returned on September 1 , 2021 .
We arrived at the hotel at 4 a.m., the reception quickly clarified all the questions and gave out the keys. The room stock is clean, the furniture is a bit not modern , but the main thing is the whole thing , everything works , the air conditioner is common, there are three modes of operation, it works very well. Breakfast - fresh fruits, always 3 types of something from the brackets ( grapefruit yellow, red, oranges, apples, melon, watermelon, nectarine , grapes), +canned peaches and grapes. Two types of yogurt, thoughts, two types of cereals , 4 types of sausage, 4 types of cheese , vegetables, olives, boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs , sausages , fried eggplant , beans in gravy , pancakes, toasts fried in butter, croissants without filling, dough bread - you can run it through the toaster yourself , 3 types jams , honey , two kinds of cupcakes . Tea, coffee, grapefruit juices, orange.
Everything is delicious , you can try everything on different days , or you can do everything in one day and already decide on your daily morning diet
The hotel is quiet , calm , the staff always tries to help , many speak Russian , but if anything , sign language helps 👍 the territory is quite large , figs and olives grow on it . There are three pools, two adults , but the depth is not great , 1.5 m apart and a small children's paddling pool. Tue , Fri, Sat evening program - a man sings on the guitar and an aunt sings very cool, with a huge repertoire of songs, you can order a song to your taste completely free of charge.
The hotel is very well located, the Windows overlook either the pool or a small driveway, there are few cars, quiet enough, close to the sea, about three minutes to the small lagoon of Elysium beach, not so much swimming, sometimes the water is in algae near the shore, but they are cleaned, you can either sit on your mats, or rent from They have sun beds .
In the other direction, you can walk to the city beach about 6 minutes on foot , it's also quite okay, there are stone approaches, there are sandy ones with coarse sand, there is a tiny approach with white fine sand. It took about 15 minutes to walk to Venus beach , but there were a lot of people , they went to their beach . There are a number of restaurants near the hotel, there is Italian cuisine, Chinese, Japanese, American local taverns, fish restaurants.
It 's very tasty , I especially liked the Farmhouse near King Road . Nearby, 15 minutes from the King Avenue shopping center, there is a grocery store there , much better than the Lidl store - there is more choice, there is a good tavern on the second floor, very tasty meat.
The embankment and the port are 20 minutes from the hotel , there are many cafes , prices are almost the same as in the city. Try meze in different restaurants! They differ in composition and quality everywhere !
The clearest meze in king Fisher is not far from the hotel, their homemade wine looks like Georgian, and the meze is gigantic and very tasty. There is a very tasty ice cream on the embankment, we tried many kinds, cool souvenir products are in the secrets of Aphrodite on the embankment.
Taking a buggy is a clear and fun thing , we recommend it . Boat trips are also good.
We do not recommend going to Aphrodite's bath separately, there is nothing interesting.
For a walk along Akamas, it is better to take a buggy, there is no road at all, clean rocks and bumps, we watched people crawl on rented tiny sedans, we ourselves felt sorry for their car, do not try, it is better to take a buggy for one day, and go without steaming, than to crawl an imaginary road, and worry about the bottom.
You can ride around the city and between the city by bus, but the schedule is inconvenient, time is often lost, a ticket for a day unlimited costs 5 euros, but you can walk around the city while waiting for a flight, but it's hard in the heat, frappe saves.
Conclusion : to go to Cyprus unequivocally, the photos of the hotel correspond to reality, take a car for a couple of days , buggy for off-road , well , meze for refueling , preferably in different places 🥰
The hotel is close to the sea, but it is dangerous to swim in it, there are rocks and a lot of algae. A medium-sized hotel, for a week of rest, 2 pieces of soap were put on for three, the gel in the dispenser is so thick that it is impossible to use, the linen was changed only in an additional place, the bed was not changed once, the towels were changed. The food at the hotel is good, breakfast is muesli, porridge, omelette, pastries, cheese, sausage, bacon, vegetables, fruits.for dinner, a hot menu is brought to order. Fish, meat, chicken kebab, pork, chop, portions are large, you definitely won't leave hungry, everything is delicious.Water and drinks are included in the breakfast, extra charge for dinner. A good beach is a 15-minute walk away, sand, the bottom is clean, fenced with breakwaters, you can sunbathe on the sand or sunbeds with an umbrella (for 2 sunbeds with an umbrella) 7.5 euros.
I was satisfied with both the hotel and the country in general. Beautiful scenery, good sea. Impressions for the year ahead. I advise everyone to visit Cyprus.
For your money, a great hotel. The only disadvantages are for any little thing (for example, a refrigerator), they ask for money, it's boring in the evenings, and you can't swim in the sea. To summarize: a hotel for a relaxing holiday by the pool.
A good three, decent food, 95% of the British vacationers, mostly pensioners, animation in English.language, for a relaxing holiday, that's the thing. There is no children's animation. It is better to take rooms-bungalows, in separate houses with access to the pool path. The staff is very friendly and friendly, many speak Russian.
A great hotel for a relaxing holiday! It's quiet, cozy, comfortable, and the food is great. Nearby are the catacombs of Solomea and the royal tombs. However, it is necessary to walk to a good beach.
A very old hotel. A small selection of dishes. Very small. There is practically no sea, there is some kind of dirty bulk beach. If you are going to Cyprus, then not to this hotel and not to this place.
The hotel is not bad! But the beach is far away, about 15 minutes on foot, and it is rocky and bad. You need to take a taxi or bus to a good beach. It is paid to use a refrigerator, a safe and very expensive
