Annabelle

This was the fourth time we stayed at this hotel and it still doesn’t disappoint. Check in went very smoothly with very friendly approachable staff. Our room 210 was spotless and a decent size and fabulous views overlooking the sea.
We booked a few spa treatments, which were fabulous. If they don’t have availability they will book you in at the Almera next door their sister hotel. Which was just as fabulous.
There are 3 or 4 different swimming pools. But it’s a shame they don’t allow the children to play with any form of inflatables. Or if they seemed to play in the pools, the life guards would tell them off. Also would be nice if the pool with the bar was adult only. Was a bit frustrating to want a drink only to have children taking up all the chairs at the bar when there are plenty of other places for children.
But overall, every single member of staff we encountered were super friendly. Will definitely be returning.

Excellent hotel!!!
Hotel with a large area so that even when the occupancy is full you don't feel it.
Large and comfortable rooms, very good level of maintenance and cleanliness.
The hotel has several swimming pools. A good breakfast with a variety of dishes with an emphasis on sensitivities such as gluten, lactose and vegetarian.
The service and kindness of the workers at the hotel was excellent, especially I would like to mention the receptionist Katrina who gave us professional, kind and understanding service!!!
I will definitely recommend the hotel to my friends.

This is a great hotel well located with Paphos. Staff are very friendly and efficient. Food options are great and the pools are good. The bonus of being able to use the sister hotel next door gives a lot of options.

Kids club is very good.

Overall, you can't go wrong.

Beautiful hotel and a wonderful stay.
We had the terrace sea-view room, the room was modern and had lovely views of the sea and a quiet pool area. The terrace area was a great size and it was nice to have your own private area. I only wish you could get pool bar service to the terrace!

The Service was excellent, the staff are helpful and friendly throughout the hotel.

Breakfast buffet is vast and lovely.

All general areas and rooms are spotless. The large pool areas and bar are relaxing and in beautiful surroundings.

Love this hotel, we are back again in September!

Incredible hotel. Staff amazingly attentive and friendly. Food is amazing. Lovely views. Excellent pool. Brilliant facilities and locations. The pictures of food there and the views from the restaurants.

Luxurious Oasis in the Heart of Paphos: A Comprehensive Review

My recent stay at this luxurious hotel in a central location was a thoroughly relaxing experience. Boasting numerous pools and an abundance of sunbeds, it provides an idyllic setting for unwinding. Here’s a detailed account of my stay:

Accommodations and Service:
From the moment we arrived, we felt well cared for. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, contributing significantly to our enjoyable stay. Our side sea view room was spacious, impeccably clean, and well-equipped. It featured a large, comfortable bed, a separate seating area, and a convenient coffee machine. The balcony was also generously sized, perfect for enjoying the scenic views. The housekeeping staff maintained high standards of cleanliness throughout our stay.

Facilities:
The hotel’s pools are sizable and surrounded by ample sunbeds, allowing plenty of space for relaxation. However, like many resorts, the practice of guests reserving sunbeds with towels for hours can be a bit frustrating, so early risers may fare better in securing their spots.

Location:
The hotel's location is excellent, with a short minute-long walk to the right leading to a lively harbour area filled with numerous bars and restaurants. To the left, there are a few more hotels, but the area is quieter and less developed. This balance provides both convenience and tranquility, depending on your preference.

Amenities:
A standout feature for families is the Baby Go Light service, which allowed us to pre-order essential baby items directly to our room, significantly easing our travel burden.

Dining:
The hotel boast numerous onsite bars and restaurants. We dinned at the the Italian Mediterraneo which faces the sea and offers a subtle twist on a classic Italian menu. While the breakfast offered a good selection, it remained the same every day, which became repetitive over the course of our stay. Additionally, the food and drink prices within the hotel are about double those of nearby bars and restaurants. The hotel’s policy of not allowing outside food or drink to be consumed on the premises does add to the cost, which may be a consideration for budget-conscious travellers.

Customer Service:
While most of the staff were friendly, we did encounter an unfortunate exception at checkout. The lady at the reception was not as welcoming or helpful as the rest of the team, which slightly marred the end of our stay.

Events and Activities:
The hotel hosts numerous private functions, such as weddings. During our stay, one such event resulted in the closure of half of the pool area for most of the day, despite the event not starting until the evening. This could be an issue during peak season when the hotel is busier, as it limits the available space for other guests.

Conclusion:
Overall, this hotel is a strong option for both families and couples looking for a luxurious stay in Paphos. If you can accommodate the higher on-site food and drink costs and the occasional inconvenience of private events, it offers a fantastic blend of comfort, service, and location. I would certainly consider staying here again, given the overall positive experience.

This is a great hotel. The service and every staff member we encountered were pleasant and professional. Our check in experience was arguably up there as the best I’ve had in a long time. Breakfast is excellent, great variety and efficient tea & coffee service. The pool towels and pool service are brilliant.

What drops this review to a four out of five are that the rooms can be noisy and many overlook the breakfast area which can stifle opportunities for a quiet lie-in when you have crockery banging around at 0700. I’m sure there are many rooms which don’t succumb to this feature but ours did which dampened our mornings. Secondly, the hotel could do a lot more to improve its environmental impact. There’s no option to skip bedding changing when not needed, towels are replaced regardless of use and there is an abundance of single-use plastic in the bathrooms.

These concerns may not be the top of everyone’s contemplations but it’s 2024 and hotels need to at least offer and look to minimise their impact on the environment whilst still aiming to deliver a good service where possible. This is entirely within the managements capability. The Annabelle is a great property but could certainly do more to deliver in this area.

I loved everything about this hotel! I stayed for three nights! Wished I could stay longer! They had room cleaning every day! I used the sauna, the inside pool, and the pool outside, which was heated since it was April! All restaurants in the hotel are amazing! Friendly staff and so helpful! My room was side sea view with a balcony to watch the sunset! Wow!! Can't wait for my next visit!

Probably the best hotel in Paphos - it has amazing location right at the seaside and close to the port area bars & restaurants (but no noise!). The most amazing is the hotel pool area and mini park with pools - no other hotel has such and frankly the possibility of private pools and private seats in a small park is amazing. There is also a heated pool on the 5th floor with amazing view, and some nice restaurants and pools. Breakfast is exceptional and hotel restaurants worth a visit. Great views and nice service. Highly recommend!
