See you next year.
From start to finish this was just what the doctor ordered, relaxation, perfect location , wonderful food , and being spoilt. After coming to the hotel last year, we knew what to expect. This year we chose room 165 ,a corner deluxe dual aspect sea view. Last year we had 125 which had a walk in shower, but didn’t benefit from the glorious sunsets. The restaurants at Alexander are amongst the best anywhere on offer, the à la carte Garibaldi and 7 orchids which need to be booked are wonderful. The staff here are all perfect including Demetrius the General Manager, nothing is too much trouble, and obviously have really good training. Other hotels should take note. Around the pool you can order refreshments from your allocated sun beds, and take advantage of the fruit drinks and cold cloths offered. There are activities offered during the day by the all star team. Sadly this year there wasn’t the evening entertainment by the team performing outside in the Havana venue, though most nights there was entertainment of some nature. I wouldn’t hesitate on recommending the Alexander the Great hotel.

Phenomenal Customer Service
From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we were made to feel very, very special at Alexander the Great. The customer service at this hotel is phenomenal and this is why it really stands out from other hotels I have ever stayed in. My daughter (26) and myself (63) thoroughly enjoyed our week here, attending a wedding at the Ktima Alassos Wedding Venue. Loved the sun bed allocation for the week and enjoyed the company of our sun bed neighbours. Food first class every night, half board plus suited us really well. The specialty dining restaurants are a fantastic experience. I now understand why people return here year after year, when you look at previous reviews. I used the hairdressers in the hotel on the day of the wedding and booked before I came. Sue was absolutely lovely and I had so many compliments about my hair on the day. The age range in the hotel was from toddlers through to those still young at heart. Position is fabulous, a lovely short stroll to Paphos harbour. The size of the hotel was just right too. For those of you considering this hotel please ignore the negative comments, as the majority of guests just love it here. I will be returning with my husband next time, September seems such a lovely month to visit. Thank you again to all the staff that made our visit to Paphos so special.

Fantastic beach front hotel within walking distance to the harbour and all local restaurants.
Review by Bob T Northampton, United Kingdom
Visited here over 30 times on a virtually yearly basis!!!!
Location is fabulous. 30 minutes to and from the airport. Short walk into Paphos either by the sea, or inland. Allocation of sun beds is worth everything! Staff are amazing. Too many to mention. Theo, on reception.The other staff are great as well. Sea views and sunsets from sea view rooms are amazing. Supermarket across the road, along with a pharmacy and laundrette— all very handy.
Flawia and her whole guest relations team, who are amazing and are there for you to sort out any issues you might have with great efficiency. Xenia and her team are always there in the dining area to greet you with a warm smile. They are always there to greet you with a smile.
Kyriakos the singing waiter 😂😂😂Absolutely fabulous, so happy and funny. The bar staff and lifeguards. All the restaurant staff. Jordan and all in the Pan Asian restaurant. Just everyone is wonderful. Food is fabulous, with various restaurants to choose from. The Pan Asian was my favourite. The various buffets are really good. The Asian night, the Italian night and others just to mention a few.
Cypriot night was good as well.
We did have two nights which were not great, which is extremely unusual. However, all was sorted and they were back on track.Rooms are comfortable, but I think an update is needed.
The housekeeping staff. Katrina who did the evening shift and Sofia who cleaned our room are very good and obliging. The swimming pools are fantastic. Outdoor very large. Indoor is large enough for some reasonably decent lengths. Every area is extremely clean. Cleaning is being done consistently. Entertainment is good. From morning, during the day and evening there is something going on. Of course between 5-6pm it’s Happy Hour 😂😂😂 Lots of people come here, like us, year after year. .ALL THE STAFF DESERVE A PAY RISE!!!!

Great location, clean, food excellent. Needs improvement with front of house and management
We stayed here for 2 weeks September 2026 as a base for our wedding in Paphos.
Good points: Extremely clean Food is excellent Restaurant and entertainment staff excellent House keeping exceptional and very helpful Fabulous location walking distance to main harbour/bars/restaurant areas and beach a stone throw away
Bad points:
Asking reception/guest services/management for any help on your stay. Forget it. EXTREMELY unhelpful and don’t care. We had 35 guests in the hotel and we asked for simple things and it was like pulling teeth and just get shut down on a simple NO. No explanation or anything. Sunbed allocation service is a great idea so you haven’t got to get up early to fight for beds however the staff who deal with it clearly don’t know how to use the system we had constant agro action with being moved about, people on our allocated beds due to the staff keep messing the system up and most of them other than Stefanos are rude and arrogant. Lifeguards. Yes every hotel needs them but again very rude and after our autistic child have a lilo and a floaty dolphin for 12 days of our 14 day trip they decided to all of a sudden change the rules to no floats whatsoever and were so rude to us and our child about it. Drink prices. I get everyone needs a mark up and to make abit of money but when the shop literally I mean opposite the hotel sells the same drinks for a fraction of the price no wonder everyone and I mean everyone buys there own drink and brings it around the pool. Odd few who can’t be asked to go across the road and get it use the bar service but otherwise don’t bother. Also after 11 days we find out the hotel does “happy hour” 5pm-6pm where drinks are sold at half price. Thats when everyone buys there drinks at the hotel. Otherwise a beer in the hotel is €4.50 ( KEO ) shop opposite €1.95 same with any cider, spirit or soft drink. Hotel is predominantly an older crowd especially with the SAGA crowds so for families and younger adults I’d suggest elsewhere
