We said after our first visit to Paphos that wewould return. The overall consensus of this destination was excellent. The hotel is wellplaced on the front with a nice walk into town. In the hotel the staff were friendly and helpful,catering very reasonable plus a good number of restaurants nearby if you want a change.The playing area was good. Paphos of course has the famous Roman mosaics plus otherareas of interest.
