I was very satisfied with the room but the bathroom could do with an upgrade.
The staff were friendly, efficient, and helpful.
I would certainly return, the hotel is suitable for single travellers as it is not too large.
The Artia restuarant, Rigas , and Kassandras in Armou village are worth a mention.
We have stayed in this hotel for the last 4 years. It suits us (being over55!) We stay B & B wich we enjoy, its a typical cereal, fruit, european/english full breakfast. The pool is really good. It's not to far away from the harbour (20-30 minutes walk) or there is a bus stop about 20 yards from the hotel.
The breakfast was quite good but could have been better if there were a couple of microwaves available as by the time you got your food to your table it was only luke warm instead of hot. The variety of food available was good just not very hot. Also there was either next doors air conditioner or the bathroom extractor was noisy enough to keep breaking my sleep.
From our balcony you could see the sea and the Tombs of the kings
We book our hotels through travel republic 2 or 3 times a year and this is the first time we have been disappointed. We were a group of 19 in Cyprus for a family wedding. The hotel was basic but adequate, the pools especially the lagoon pool were nice, always plenty of sunbeds. We are not picky eaters, nor are we the Brits abroad brigade who want chips with everything but after the first couple of days we felt that the food went downhill like a bobsleigh, dishes were very random and it made it difficult to 'make' a meal that didn't look like you were emptying the freezer! Choc ice and chips anyone?!! If you take anything electrical (kettle, hairdryer etc) they threaten to confiscate them. On the whole the staff a very pleasant, however beware of the night porter, especially if you have teenage Daughters the attention he shows is above and beyond the call of duty...will leave that one with you, don't want to be done for libel!! We did have to talk to the manager about him
Tea for two just up the road, great for tea, snacks and meals also Fat Mammas
We were well received by staff at reception. As we had been before we knew where the room allocated to us was. Room clean and tidy - was cleaned every morning . Towels were replace very regularly - linen changed also once during our weeks stay. Staff were very frinedly even the Manager would stop and talk to you.
As we were on bed and breakfast only we cannot tell what the evening mals were like. However the buffet breakfast is OK - have as much or as little as you require. Altogether a good week. Well done Travel Republic.
Good restuarants to eat at , Karlina, Sisyfos [restaurant on the roof] along the Tomb of the Kings Road, and the Moorings down along the front at Kato Pahos.
The Municipal Beach 15 minutes walk - OK but watch the rocks.
The pool was fantastic and the rooms were very clean with housekeeping each day. the foot was average.
Big mammas was a great restaurant, just around the corner. Hire a car and go to Coral Bay beech and have a drive up in the mountains, beautiful.
The Kissos was clean and the superior rooms large. Recommend booking this type of room. If 4 people slept there 2 would have to share a rather small fold up bed. Lovely pools, one of which follows a 'river' style you can swim along. Food type quite limited to about 5 hot dishes a night but always soup, salad and the most delicious desserts available. Location is great - right next to many restaurants and bars along a strip. Can walk into Paphos itself to the harbour in about 20-25mins. For younger couples 'bar street' can also be found near to Paphos harbour. Lots to see and do near to the hotel. Beach was a bit disappointing as the sand was dark yellow and seemed to leave a strange film on your hands. Saw people swimming in the sea but we weren't brave enough to. The small metal pier seemed a bit old and rusty and we saw a girl hurt her foot on it.
Tombs of the Kings is so close - just 5 mins walk down the main road and it's fantastic if you enjoy exploring caves, old Roman columns and hideyholes. Take your own water as they do not sell it there and it's a long and hot, dusty visit. Also the Outback karaoke bar was great for a drink and hospitality ( turn right on the main road and walk for about 5-10 mins on right hand side). Cocktails just 2.50 euros and the manager makes sure everyone is well looked after. He was also a chef so I'm sure the food will be good too although we didn't eat there.
Enjoyed stay. Hotel very quiet and very clean. Maid service daily. Only a few guests stayed in the complex at night. Meals sometimes bland and repetitive.
Fat Mama's restaurant was hugely popular every night. Kings Road karaoke bar was good and for sports we went to the Yiamas bar, which was popular for families with younger children.
hotel clean staff friendly,food good but very limited choice,not good for kids,good location.
It was okay - bit drab though. The photographs look much better than the actual hotel. However, the staff were extremely helpful (except for the night staff - he was a bit rude and had an attitude). 1st day the air conditioning in the room did not work - we mentioned this and then it got a bit better - we had to move the beds to get some sleep. Overall it was okay but would only give it a two star and not a three.
The location was exceptional - every amenity and close to the beach (about two minute walk) and near to the Tombs of the Kings as well (about 5-10 minutes).
We have just returned from a weeks holiday, and can only say we were delighted with the Kissos Hotel.
The staff were friendly, helpful and the hotel itself was clean and very well run. We would not hesitate to recommend this hotel and would happily return.
Its is perfectly situated to access all parts of Paphos. The harbour, beach and eating places were all within walking distance.A walk down the Tomb of the Kings Road in the evenings provided free entertainment in most of the bars, which was suitable for all age groups and families.
The Kings Head kariokee bar was run by a lovely family and was great fun and entertaining.
Found the staff to be very friendly and helpfull.When we were there the hotl was very quite so unable to coment on ease of getting sunbeds as there was only about 1/2doz people at the pool which i must say was a large pool area.Asfporthe hotel itself although rooms were large enough and towels changed every day the hotl is in need of a spuce up as things are beginning to look dated.Food wasokay but nothing to get excited about but this was probibly down to the fact the hotel was empty.
Just go bed and breakfast as great variaty of restuarants in area that are inexpensive
The hotel is clean and pleasant but a little dated. And whilst it appears to be custom and practice in Cyprus, you have to pay surcharges for every extra - which many people wouldn't consider to be an extra - such as fridge which has a daily charge and late check out is charged.
Breakfast is very average do not expect too much.
Tramps is a decent bar, the food is OK as is the Beer. There is a roodtop resturant just by Raffles which was very good quality. The harbour area is good as well. If you rent a car shop around as theres many deals to be had, we paid only 25 E per day for rental car
Hotel acceptable for 3 star rating. Breakfast exactly the same every day was a bit boring after 3 weeks( we only stayed b/b) Hotel room basic, balcony very very small, barely room for a table and two chairs. Outside space very good - pools attractive and clean and because quiet in April plenty of sunbeds. The position of the hotel, however made up for a lot as it was ideal. Not too far from the beach and just off the Tomb of Kings strip.
Although not close to hotel as it was in paphos itself the Adelaide restaurant is exceptional - good value at these expensive times. Three course varied menu with wine included for 14.50 euros. For a good night out with karoake if you like that and a subtantial amount of food then Thomas' Jungle on the strip is excellent and very friendly if you are a couple on your own and want a bit of life.
good hotel nice and quite
having stayed at this hotel in the past i found that this last visit contained less brits and more diverse nationalities. the staff i think found it a little difficult dealing with so many languages.The food was repeated weekly and needs more variation i know it is more diffficult to deal with so many national dishes.but non the less we always found something to satify our selves.plenty of sun beds around the pool areas, but the towels are still out before dawn.The owner and manager are always on patrol checking to see if every thing is ok, both are very approachable and helpful
many restraunts with in afew minutes walk.car hire is easy ,but check around prices vary quite a lot
Had a lovely holiday staying at the Kissos Hotel in Pathos in October 2008. A good breakfast was served every morning - something for everyone. The pool areas were in good condition and lovely and clean as was all the public areas in the hotel. We were disappointed with our bedroom as that was in need of updating, infact a complete refurbishment especially the bathroom, but having said that the room was adequate for our needs. You do need to pay extra for use of the fridge and for tea/coffee facilities which are usually standard in this type of hotel but the tea/coffee was generously refilled every day of our stay. Staff were all very helpful and very friendly in fact they went out of their way on the reception to help us with a lost bag which we left in a taxi - which was returned to us within the half hour. The Kissos is definately worth a visit.
We loved eating at "Fat Mammas" just around the corner as they provide entertainment as well - it was packed every night. Also some lovely restaurants further along the road especially "Raffles". The bus service is very good and will take you to a lovely beach called Coral Bay - definately worth the bus ride.
Hotel good with helpfull staff, The eastern european staff could be more cheerfull.
Good selection of bars and restaurants near hotel. The main reoad near by can be very busy.
Cyprus has got expensive, Use to be cheap to eat out, not now, but quality of food still good. Taxi`s have got expensive, use to not think about using them, not now walk if you can.Pahos is now very built up with more building going on, they are going to spoil the small town holiday resort feelling, some cheap and cheerful shops and bars opening up now, loosing its Greek look and feeling.
Basic 3 star, but the staff are lovely and the owner is super, we have been for the last three years. Brilliant swimming pools.
In the centre of loads of restaurants, Tea 4 Two, Moulia, and Raffles are excellent. Tramps for a great breakfast.
We thought that the Hotel was excellent. The rooms were cleaned every day and we had clean towels every day.The breakfast was good because you had a wide choice.
The Raffles Restaurant
