Alexander the Great Beach Hotel

We just returned from this hotel. We loved it! You can always find something to criticise if you are looking for it, but the overall experience of this place was amazing. The service really attentive. The food was brilliant. We chose half board & you certainly couldn't accuse it of being the same each night. Both breakfast(with fresh orange juice and your own selection of pancake toppings/omelette fillings brought to your table) & dinner (different themes each night) was amazing. We enjoyed the desserts & especially enjoyed the fact that you were able to have a drink with dinner that was included. I didn't find the prices at the bars too bad. We were invited to a complimentary drinks reception the evening after our arrival & the manager of the hotel personally greeted us. I would certainly have no hesitation in returning here & wish our stay had been longer. Location also excellent for a stroll along the front. Well recommended. Love that you are assigned a sunbed, so are never without. They need to fix the jets in the pools/do some maintenance in some toilet cubicles, but the maintenance team always seemed to be doing something so I am sure they will get around to it.

The Hotel is situated in a good position near to the harbour. It has a large grass area overlooking the sea so a great choice of where to sit outside.We stayed at Christmas 23/24 and had a great time on this visit we were recognised by some of the staff. The staff in this hotel are great so friendly and helpful you feel as though you are part of it. It would be unfair to pick out any mention any names for praise as every body was great . The breakfast area has been refurbished to a very high standard no expense spared. The food and service was excellent plenty of choice. plates in the warmer were very often not hot. The hotel was clean and tidy . Several other areas had been improved the main seating area and other work was ongoing. We played tennis nearly everyday the gym is excellent one of the best i have used on holiday and the instructor very helpful. Sauna and steam room always hot used daily and the pools were always clean and tidy. It was good to see the manager out and about in the hotel very approachable keeping an eye on things. There seemed to be a lot of senior staff staff seeing you to your places at mealtimes but i will say they helped out when required. place. The entertainment team put their heart and soul into their activities especially the shows but in my opinion as a musician they need a better area to perform as the shape of the room distorts the sound but well done Matt and his team. So yes i would highly recommend this hotel for a great holiday we will in the future go back.

My family and I had a terrific winter break at the Alexander the Great Hotel. We booked a Superior Room Sea View and it had plenty of room for 2 adults and 2 kids. Our view was great and housekeeping did a very good job of cleaning the room while we were away on outings. The food at the hotel is outstanding and we had a lot of fun at the Christmas Gala Buffet. Furthermore, our daughter loved spending time at the Little Monsters Kids Club. There were activities to partake in and entertaining every day and we greatly enjoyed drinking our daily cocktail while relaxing in the hotel lobby/lounge in the evening. I would definitely recommend this resort to anyone!

The atmosphere is so relaxed in this hotel, it smells like a spa. The rooms are spotless and the staff can't do enough for you, the location is perfect, 10 minute stroll to paphos harbour, 2 minute walk to watersports and a supermarket across the road. We would definitely return here. Also the indoor pool, sauna and steam room is such a great extra to have. We have had an amazing stay and aren't ready to go home.

Very nice hotel for an older generation, not so much for younger folks. Great facilities such as indoor and outdoor pool, sauna and steam room, and very close to the beach and beach path walk. Not far from harbour too. Pleasant clean interiors and a selection of in-house cafe/restaurants. Rooms are a little basic and lack some flair, but very nice grounds and reasonable views from the balcony (depending on what room you book). Staff were always friendly, attentive and willing to please. My only complaint would be buffet meals should not be self-service, this is not hygienic considering the amount of colds/flu/covid people may have (there were quite a few sniffles and coughs I noticed). Also some people help themselves slower than others making it a bit of a pain. Some additional staff to serve at the counters would have made it more acceptable. In addition to this, food could be served hotter. Most of it was warm rather than hot. Not good for potential food poisoning. Would certainly visit here again but next time would avoid the buffet dinner completely.
