This shortlist covers 15 3-star hotels in Paphos, from seafront villages to hillside inns.

Staying in Paphos

Paphos sits on the west coast of Cyprus, split between Ktima, the everyday town on the hill, and Kato Paphos, the tourist quarter by the sea with the harbour, the castle and the archaeological park. These 3-star hotels are spread right across that map. Several stand in Kato Paphos around Tombs of the Kings Avenue and Agiou Lambrianou, a few sit in the town centre near Makarios Avenue and Dionysou, and others lie further out at Coral Bay, Aphrodite Hills, Nea Dimmata, Droushia and the village of Nikoklia. The choice is really a choice of setting: walkable resort streets versus a quiet base for driving out to the Akamas and the Troodos foothills.

Couples tend to do well in the small places with the highest guest scores, while families are better served by the apartment and village complexes with pools, babysitting and family rooms. Business travellers are best placed in the town-centre hotels. Because the range is wide, check the address against what you plan to do each day before booking.

Where to stay in Paphos

Kato Paphos

Roman Ii on Agiou Lambrianou and Princessa Vera Hotel Apartments on Tombs of the Kings Avenue are both in Kato Paphos, the coastal quarter where the harbour, castle and archaeological park sit. It is the most walkable part of Paphos for visitors, with the beach nearby and the resort's bars and restaurants on the doorstep.

Our picks here: Roman Ii

Coral Bay

Kings Paradise Vil 2 is addressed in Coral Bay, the sandy-bay resort area north of Kato Paphos. It is a quieter, villa-style setting with parking and a laundry service, better suited to travellers with a car who want the beach without the town around them.
