brilliant location but it is under staffed and they are just not bothered about it at all. There is no food available after 9.30am, the kids club is non existent. We (myself, wife and 6 year old son) went for the last 2 weeks of july 2011. There are 2 elderly cleaners that... more

We booked this holiday through First Choice and found that for the location, rooms and pool it was exceptional value. The rooms were large but basic, although for the price we couldnt have expected more. The air con was a life savour though, very cold which is needed in... more

At first I thought the Basilica was great, just right for my two friends and me. The apartments were basic but clean just right for what we had paid. The pool was lovely but there could have been a few more sun loungers. The staffs weren’t the friendliest of people and... more

My holiday was brilliant. Stayed in the apartments for only one week but wish it could have been longer. The location was brilliant! Food wasn't fab but you are surrounded by other restaurants and things to do so who cares! The staff were helpful and my room was always... more

The only good thing about these apartments was the location, very close to the harbour and restaurants. I really cannot say anything good about the apartments. They were scruffy, and smelly, the rooms had been given a lick of paint , but the sheets were dirty, and we were... more

This was our tenth year in Paphos, and our first time in the Bascilica. The two bed roomed apartment was the best accommodation we’ve had in Cyprus, it was immaculate, the beds were comfortable, the room was cleaned daily as was the bar area, pool, and communal areas, it... more

We’ve just returned after a week at the basilica apartments. Although our tour operator Olympic tried their best to ruin our holiday, the staff at the Basilica did the opposite! After a delay on the way meaning we did not reach our destination until 2 o’clock in the... more

We have just returned from a two week holiday at the Basilica Apartments and have had a great time. We had a two bed roomed apartment, which was a good size, clean, well decorated and well equipped. The apartment was in a block further away from the pool etc. and on the... more

Paphos Revisited With The Kids
Okay so it wasn't bad but equally it didn't look like any of the photos in the official literature nor in some of the 2008 travel brochures, they're either using artistic licence or an airbrush! So what of the accomodation, well all the rooms appear to be air conditioned which is a blessing when the heat never drops below 40 during the day and not much below 30 at night, they're clean and fairly well appointed, that said the hotel is spilt into two distinct parts one of the which, the Harbour Suites, are much newer and far better kitted out... more
CYPRUS FUN - thru first choice-
hi we have just spent a week here 2 adults and 3 teenager girls (16 yrs), they did try to put us in a grotty room right at the back of the complex, this would have been very dark for our teenage girls, and we had asked for a pool view. after digging our heels in we were placed in a 3 bedded room in the penelope suites ( not with pool view), but did have 3 loos 2 bathrooms and 3 bedrooms dishwasher TV and was very modern, was not being used so didnt see why we were given the grotty one inthe first place. First... more
different apartment blocks mean different standards
when we arrived at our room (note- we had to take up our own cases.... snobbery you think? no, i mean we had to drag them up three flights of stairs, our block had no lift.) and we were then greeted by several cockroaches during our stay. the basilica gardens is v.old and we had paid quite a lot for the room as i went along with my parents for a fortnight, and needed my own room. therefore we had one of the better rooms in the block which looked out onto the pool but even our room wasnt amazing and wasnt cleaned very well or even very... more
basillica not brilliant
We stayed at the basillica apartments in june 2007. It certainly doesent live upto the the brochure! The decor was very tired and could be doing with a makeover. We booked a seaview and was told when we arrived that they were informed that the rooms have no seaviews!. They are mostly all inland views looking onto other balconys with not much privacy at all. The restraunt was a bit of a joke. we had no air conditioning for the first 5 days due to a faulty part, so as a good will gesture we had a free meal in the resturaunt. Iam so glad... more
Never thought I would be so glad to be home... dont believe the hype
Really cannot understand why some people have given this accommodation such glowing reviews! The Basilica is VERY basic, with delapidated interiors and exteriors, more like a 2 star than a 3 star... and that's pushing it... we were put in a room that I can only describe as the back of beyond, very depressing atmosphere and terrible view of, well nothing really! Oh apart from more delapidated buildings.. we complained to our surly rep and were begrudgingly moved to yet another depressing room, with, surprise surprise, a dreadful view! By now... more
A pleasant enough surprise
We have just returned from 12 nights staying at the Basilica Gardens Apartments. Only accom left when we booked with our agent was a studio so we were very pleasantly surprised when we reached our apartment to find it was a two bedroom instead. The apartment was clean and bright., 2 good sized bedrooms, nice living room and kitchen and a big enough bathroom. We had a corner view of the pool and the balcony over looked the restaurant/bar, which i have to say only opened for lunch and there never seemed to be anyone eating there. The reception... more
Looking At The Tin Roof
We all decided to go on holiday, myself my mum my dad ... partner and baby. We arrived the the basilica apartments and were given 2 rooms in the building "out the back". The view from the rooms was a tin roof full of bird poo couldnt see anything else. My first thought was what the hell am i doing here! The apartments were advertised as having a bath and shower and having SEA VIEW There was no bath and no sea view, i needed the bath for the baby she would be terrified of a shower. After 3 complaints to the reception... more
Long live the Basilica Gardens
We stayed for thirteen nights in August 2006, for our honeymoon and a first trip to Cyprus. The hotel was clean, neat and tidy, had a good restaurant and decent bar. The pool was big and well kept with a bar. Any problems we had were sorted out as soon as the staff heard about it. For example, the air conditioning unit dripped cold water inside our wardrobe on the first night - within minutes of our mentioning it, a maintenance man was in the room mending the unit.... One night we had trouble sleeping because of a smell coming... more
Brilliant Basillica apartments
We have just returned from a week's stay at the Basillica apartments in Paphos and it was fantastic. There were four of us travelling, all girls aged 24 so we wanted to stay somewhere in the centre and this was definetely the right place for that. We could walk to the harbour in less than five minutes and the main town was on our doorstep. There is a supermarket in Debenhams which is a two minute walk away. Bar Street is also close by which is great for nightlife, lots of bars (obviously) and restaurants so the apartments are in a... more
Paphos Revisited
We stayed at the Basilica Gardens from March 7th to 14th 2006. The Basilica suites in Paphos are located above the Debenhams Store close to the harbour. On arrival we were led across the pool area to our accommodation block. The entrance was through an unused office reception area. The one bedroom apartments were situated at the end of a dimly lit corridor where only half of the overhead lights seemed to work, this only added to the sad appearance of the carpeting. Our accommodation was stated as a one bedroom suite and... more
