Annabelle

Purports to be a top level hotel, however compared to some we have visited it rates about a 3/5 . Breakfast buffet chaotic, service patchy. Rooms OK but late evenings spoilt by the daily “disco” boat crossing the bay in front of the hotel around 10.30 every night with very loud intrusive music, it docks in the marina and this continues to around midnight….. OK I guess if that’s your scene but definitely not if you have youngsters to get to sleep! Very expensive extras on top of the B&B price so all adds up to a pretty expensive 10 day break.

Hotel not far from airport. Excellent welcome from first rate staff/reception (Fatima was so friendly and professional) - spacious hotel doesn’t feel crowded. Well designed pool area and large main pool. Great location near to town and on sea front. Small beach in Front of hotel and further along coastal path. No problems with getting sunbed although the towel brigade are out early. Good service from sunbeds! There didnt seem to be any showers for the pool that we could find. Main pool is quite warm too. Room was the land view ( as hotel fully booked) but no problems at all other than smoking (for a short time) on balcony next door and some adjacent hotel/ road noise. Any issues dealt with my the hotel very effectively. Room was great though, we did not need to upgrade. Oddly, there was no make up mirror in bathroom. Housekeeping good. Note smoking is not everywhere all the time but is allowed in public areas inc around pool and on balconies. We are not a fan of Paphos, it felt downmarket generally with not many good restaurants around apart from at hotel Best food at Aphrodite grill! Cafe nearby for breakfast which is good called Alea if you’d rather miss the scramble at the hotel. Some nationalities frequent Cyprus that you wouldn’t find in other EU countries Bear in mind it can be VERY hot even at night -air con in Hotel is good though but we were limited in activity. This was in September. Would definitely recommend hotel if you like Cyprus

We have just returned from a 5 night break and were fortunate to share a wonderful family wedding during our stay. Lovely, well managed hotel that more than met our expectations. The ceremony was conducted in a beautiful sea-facing setting delivering a real wow factor experience. Food, staff and facilities were excellent and this is a hotel worthy of recommendation.

Stayed at The Annabel hotel, all the staff were so welcoming , polite and helpful from the moment we stepped through the door. The hotel was immaculately clean, we had a turn down every night with a small token note on the bed , which was such a lovely touch. The toiletries were of a high standard and the room was of a good size. Plenty of beds by the many pool areas , breakfast was a pleasure , and the head chef would pop out from time to time checking guests were ok ! We ate in the roof top restaurant and the food was amazing, we were expecting to be able to just have a drink at the roof top bar on one evening , but we were advised it was just for food and drinks, not drinks only so that was a bit disappointing ! ☹️ The hotel has a Colombian feel , very close to the harbour about a 10min walk Special shout out to Sauarv and Sandeep who looked after us at the swim up pool. 🍸🍹 I would defiantly return to the hotel and recommend to friends and family !!

Ideal location , close to everything. Very pleasant outdoor areas with choice of pool. The main pool is a warm temperature however we preferred the other which although colder felt more peaceful. That said the whole ambience of the hotel is relaxed. No problem getting a sun bed and loungers were comfortable. There’s a swim up bar and buzzer to order drinks although we didn’t use these. Staff helpful and friendly. Welcome drink on arrival. Standard room which was a generous size and clean. Good air con system.. The balcony was tiny and squashed , it overlooked the breakfast area. Due to its low level it didn’t feel private which we disliked but it was fine at night because there was nobody sitting there. We stayed B&B, found the breakfast to be average. Eating out suited us however when we ate poolside it was very nice. After checking out we went to the spa which we enjoyed. Comments about the hotel being dated can only relate to the corridors , the hotel is lovely , clean with lots of comfortable seating areas. If returning to Pathos we’d stay at Annabelle.
