Annabelle

A lovely holiday hotel, right on the sea front, but elevated, above the passing sea-front strollers. The staff in all parts of the hotel were friendly, helpful and professional, nothing was ever too much trouble. We stayed half-board. The buffet breakfast selection was varied and good quality. Food in both of the lovely la carte restaurants we used was delicious and beautifully presented and was matched by the restaurant in their sister hotel, Almera, next door, which was offered as an option, at no extra cost, as part of the Jet2 package. We did try the buffet restaurant one evening when our usual restaurant was closed, but it was noisy and choice was limited, possibly due to the low occupancy. The weather was generally fine but too cool for us to use the pools and extensive sun bed area. We would be happy to stay again should we return to Cyprus.

We stayed in a room in the new wing that is described as having a panoramic sea view. Though not fully panoramic, the view was still fantastic. The room was new, spotlessly clean and service was great. Location bang by the sea and right next to the harbour was so convenient. Almost everything was working easy walking distance. Staff in the restaurants were friendly and they made a special effort for our wedding anniversary which was very nice. It was too cold for us to use the outdoor pools but the indoor pool was perfect. There was some concern about safety due to the drone strike in early March but we felt absolutely safe throughout our time there in Paphos. Overall we had a wonderful trip and would happily go back.

So pleased we made the selection of Cyprus Paphos and the Annabelle Hotel for our winter break from the UK - a pretty good choice. We had an excellent week the hotel together with a sea view room was excellent. Couldn’t fault the service of any of the staff they were so welcoming and helpful. Even though we were B&B only we always felt treated as special guests. The pool and garden area is superb as a place to relax and enjoy the overall special ambience. Even the weekend storm was spectacular from out sea view room and balcony !! :-) Great location for walking out and about or catching a local bus to explore. Will certainly recommend both the hotel and Cyprus to friends. Finally hope Donald Bloody Trump and the ridiculous Press clickbait stories don’t stop people coming.

I travel extensively & rarely leave reviews unless the Hotel has been exceptional.For me, this includes customer service, ambience and high standards of cleanliness. The Annabelle Paphos has this in abundance which is why this is my 3rd long stay winter visit in 10 years. Most of the team at the Annabelle have been together for many years. This continuity is wonderful & rather rare in other establishments. David the head chef, always making sure my experience is perfect. George, the head waiter, charming and smiling. A pleasure to be greeted by him. Demetrius, also smiling and charming. The housekeeping ladies. I usually travel solo, but this time came with my daughter and 8 month old grandson. We had 2 rooms together and the halfboard option room service was a blessing with our little one, delivered promptly, kindly and often in a hush by Nikos as our baby slept. The spa, pool and sauna a lovely addition. The grounds a beautiful oasis of calm with views to the sea, past the pools and lush palm and bougainvillea filled gardens. It has a rare old world charm, with all the modern facilities. Wonderful walks along the coastline in both directions. The shops and restaurants of the harbour a moments stroll away. Great location. My thanks goes to all the Guest Relations Team. Particularly Chrytalla Socratous. She is an elegant presence and seems to know exactly what I need before I do. Nothing is too much trouble. Seeing Chrystalla again, is like meeting up with an old friend. Exactly what returning to a wonderful hotel should feel like. A second home.I look forward to my next visit.

A very welcoming hotel. Excellent food and service. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. Great swimming and spa facilities.
