Hotel ratings by criteria:
We rested in July 2012. Basically, I liked everything. I would rate it 4 out of 5. I found only three shortcomings: 1.95% English, so everything is in English. You know it's very annoying when animation, contests, evening show are all in English all day long. In bars, ordering cognac or explaining that you want a full glass of wine is quite problematic. Again, some Englishmen behave worse than the characters of "our rush" - but there are few of them. 2. It is very hot in the main restaurant - they came out sweaty like after a student canteen. Out of 10 days, the air conditioner was turned on for only three dinners. At this time, the cooling in the rooms was noticeably reduced. 3. There is no beach. And in Paphos, all the beaches are polluted: garbage, algae, muddy water and a musty smell. The locals say that the beaches are washed out in winter. But the paradox is to go beyond the city limits - the purest blue water, pebbly empty beaches. Tips: 1. Buy vouchers on the territory of the hotel on the shore of the girl Tatyana-Ukrainian, a good person. The prices are half the price of a bablioglubus, so I also gave 10 minutes of a jet ski and a catamaran for the whole day as a gift. 2. There are a lot of mosquitoes, I bought a raptor, the prices in the store at the hotel were pleasantly surprised. 3. If you want to take a good sunbed by the pool or on the grass under an umbrella, you will have to get up at 7 am)4. Alcohol in the hotel bars is disgusting. On the menu and Hennessy and Courvoisier and Scotch whiskey, there is nothing of this. There were local wines, keo beer, one brandy and many liquors. After the local kamandaria, heartburn was constantly tormented, judging by the bottles of wine they bought cheaper. The restaurant serves dry wine with a touch of yeast - a typical cheap brew. The beer is good, like Czech. 5. In the dining room, it is worth moving away from the table for an additive - you come to an empty table - the waiters, like meteors, take the dishes at a run. When yes, they also snatch out empty glasses, plates, it annoyed me. 6. The kitchen has a lot of dishes. Three types of meat, two fish, many vegetarian dishes. There were few fruits, watermelons, melons, bananas and apples, as I understand it is not the season. 7. The rooms are very small. On promotional photos you can see them being stretched in length in Photoshop. A room for four in size is the same as for two, despite the fact that children go at full price. 8. I was surprised that in many photos in front of the hotel there is a beach with sand - it does not exist and never has been - there is a spit with a stone-rocky shore - you can’t even approach the water. 9. A lot of planes, flying very low, usually every 30-40 minutes - a few kilometers from the airport. 10. The staff is all friendly, polite, attentive, but I repeat, everyone speaks broken English. 11. In the pools there are workers with whistles everywhere, three people help the children on the slides. To sum it up: the hotel is good value for money. A huge drawback is the lack of the sea. I took vouchers in the biblioglobus, everything here is 5+. I didn't like Paphos itself - the village is a village with gloomy locals. All vaunted sights are beautiful only in photographs - in reality, ordinary piles of stones or a rock in the sea. No nature. Cypriot cuisine is also far from my ideal - all these fatty sausages in stuffed cabbage and white nasty sauce got tired on the second day. There are no sensible stores, prices are higher than in Moscow.
