Top choice in Pafos
This dusky pink hotel has been tastefully renovated. Carpets have been replaced with cool stone tiles and the colour scheme throughout is all soothing blue greys and soft greens. Enjoy a stand-out panoramic view from the elegant reception area and bar as well as many of the rooms. Those on the first floor have large private balconies.
Take a look at the artwork, much of it is by well-known Cypriot artist Christos Christou, a childhood friend of the owner.
