City hotel guide

Paphos City

Paphos serves as Cyprus’s primary tourist gateway, renowned for its well-preserved historical sites and pleasant Mediterranean climate. The city is distinctly divided into two main areas: the Old Town (Kato Paphos), characterized by Byzantine architecture and UNESCO-listed Roman mosaics, offers a deep cultural immersion; while the New Town features a modern seafront promenade, contemporary dining, and a high concentration of hotels, providing convenience and leisure. With a relaxed pace and easy access to both archaeological wonders and coastal beauty, Paphos is an ideal base for travelers seeking a balance between history and relaxation.

Before choosing where to stay

Where to Base

Choose based on preference: the Old Town is ideal for travelers who enjoy walking to archaeological sites and historic ambiance. The New Town waterfront area offers better access to modern hotel amenities, nightlife, and dining, making it convenient for those prioritizing comfort and connectivity.

Airport Connection

Paphos International Airport (PFO) is located very close to the city center. Taxis to the main hotel districts or the old town typically take only 10-15 minutes. This proximity makes arrival and departure seamless for frequent flyers without the need for complex transfers.

Best Season

Spring (April-May) and Autumn (September-October) offer the most comfortable weather, avoiding the peak summer heat and crowds. These seasons are ideal for exploring outdoor archaeological sites and enjoying a more relaxed hotel experience with better availability and value.
