Top hotels in Old Town Paphos

Axiothea Hotel
Hotel is near the central square area not the seafront but still convenient if you have a car. For a few euros extra its worth booking a room with balcony with seaview. Lovely traditional stone floor lobby with lounge overlooking the bay.

King Evelthon Beach Hotel & Resort
Overall it was a good hotel. Room was clean, staff were friendly, food was good, evening entertainment could have been a bit better but might have been that time of year. No fighting for sunbeds.
