Find cheap hotels in Paphos

With its location on the coast and its wide range of seaside attractions, Paphos is a popular tourist spot in Cyprus. Ebookers gives you the best pricing on hotels in Paphos, allowing you to search for luxury resorts or budget-friendly hotels.

Visit the Ancient Ruins

Many people know Paphos because legend says that it was the spot where Aphrodite was born. In Greek mythology, Aphrodite was the goddess of love. You can visit the actual spot where the locals claim that her miraculous birth occurred. When you search the ebookers site, you might find that you cannot search for hotels near this birthplace. You can look for hotels near Petra tou Romiou, which is the area associated with her birth. You can also find hotels a short distance from the former governor's palace. During the Greco-Roman era, the Roman governor lived in this building. Though the building no longer stands, the ruins are on display. In addition to the building, you can also see some of the antique textiles and mosaics on display.

Top Resort Communities

Locals divide Paphos into four communities:

• Kato Paphos
• Coral Bay
• Aphrodite Hills
• Latchi

Kato Paphos is the biggest neighbourhood, but there are few tourist attractions here. Those who seek accommodation in Kato Paphos are often those who want to unwind and relax in a comfortable environment, without worrying about the hustle and bustle of the city. Coral Bay is most popular during the warmer months because it boasts miles of beaches and a luxurious beach-side resort. Latchi sits directly on the water and has its own harbour for those interested in boats or sailing. If you want a more traditional holiday, you might opt for Aphrodite Hills, which is a resort area. Though many of the buildings are newer, the designers created the buildings to mimic the traditional architecture in Paphos. This area has its own golf course, theatre, art gallery, and chapels. When you look for rooms on the ebookers site, make sure that you pay attention to the location of each hotel since each community offers a different feel and experience.

Tourism and the Port

One of the biggest tourist spots in Paphos is the port, which can see 300 boats docked along the water on a busy day. The small shops sitting near the port give you a place to sip a drink and look at the surroundings, share a meal with your family, or rent your own boat and head to the water. Near the port is an area that locals call the castle square. The castle square is the centre of the Aphrodite Festival, an annual festival dedicated to the myths and legends behind the Greek goddess. When you use ebookers for your Paphos holiday, you can stay as close to the port as you want. Each hotel has its own map, which shows you its proximity to the port and other tourist attractions. Frequent travellers know to use ebookers when they want to find the best hotels in Paphos.
