Great hotel, very clean and well...
5 / 10
Jul 2007, Mrs Cw Watson

Great hotel, very clean and well looked after. Entertainment very poor, lucky that there is lots to do in Coral Bay and Paphos or we would of been bored to tears.
We booked this as an all inclusive holiday and was told this would include all food and locally produced alcohol. When we arrived we were told by hotel staff that we were all inclusive light. Which after ten years of doing all inclusive holidays i have never heard of, this means that they would only serve us with beer , water and soft drinks.
The food was for the best part very poor, serving luke warm and dried up food with very little selection, serving the same thing night after night. We ended up eating in the Coral king and the Hippopotamus restaurant most nights. The food and the service at these places were excellent.
Service in the hotel was good depending on who was serving, but once they saw your all inclusive bracelet and they knew you weren't half board you were made to wait a lot longer for drinks as the half board people have to pay for everything.
I would definitely go back to Cyprus but not this hotel unless they change the chef and decide if they are half board or all inclusive because they obviously cant do both !

We spent Christmas & New Year at this Hotel. Great hotel, very clean and all the staff helpful at all times, however.
When we arrived at about 10pm we found no porters. We don't have any I was told. And after an exchange of words, a waiter from the bar showed us to our room. I also asked about leaving our passports so we could be registered and was given the form to fill in myself before going to our room. After a nights sleep we went to breakfast. The food was cold Bacon was covered in half cold fat, eggs looked like plastic toys and I am sure you could have skimmed them across the swimming pool. The cold food seemed to be the order of the day as apart from a couple of days after a delegation of visitors to the Manager things got a bit better though the food seemed to be a combination of four meals on a rotation basis.
We also found that the making facility was only for the first day and after that you had to pay £2 per day, the safe in the room was £10 per week and there was a £10 charge to use the bar in the room. Food and drink was not aloud to be brought in from outside though Al Capone would have made a pile out of the booze runs. Our stay was spoilt by the local who came in over the period to eat etc and although they had to pay for the food the guests (tourists) who in some cases had paid over a £1000 each had to Q up to get in to the dining room while the local were shown through.
Again when we sat down we found the local children running about while we went to get our food which again we found very bland and as always not very hot. Our two weeks seemed to go on forever unlike most holidays that you don't want to end. And for the last few days we found eating out was the best way to stave off hunger.

Average decoration in public areas, rooms in need of updating. The air condition in the rooms was poor and non-existent in public areas. The manager simply refused to turn it on with the excuse that is was not that hot. It was at least 40 degrees.
The buffet food was of terribly poor quality. We had to eat out on several occasions.
Entertainment was a complete joke. Some of the guests mocked the singers and they thought that it was because they enjoyed it. Service was very slow.
Not worth the four star rating in my opinion.

The rooms were lovely and clean and there was plenty of space around the pool. There was not much around the hotel but the bus into Pathos was very cheap and just 30 mins away.
Most of the staff were friendly however we found the restaurant staff not so friendly. The day time entertainment was full of fun sports but the evening entertainment was very poor.
Depending on were your room is there is a chance you can hear music until the earlier hours in the morning. Not the best holiday but not the worst!!

Feb 2005, Miss A Matkin

We had a lovely holiday at the Crown Resort Horizon. The facilities were excellent; the heated indoor pool was fab. Unfortunately the weather was not brilliant. But apart from that the hotel was immaculate, and our room was cleaned every day (including bedding). The rooms were surprisingly spacious as well.
The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. The Thomson rep (Natalie) was very helpful, and was around quite a lot.
The food was very nice, apart from one night, which was the Cypriot night, unfortunately the meat was tough and overcooked, and appeared to have been prepared very early in the evening.
The other nights that we ate in the restaurant for dinner, the food was lovely and lots of choice was available. The salads and soups were lovely, and the main courses were very nice and tasty. There was also a varied choice of deserts. Breakfast was nice, with a choice of healthy bread, fruit and cereal, and the traditional full English, which was also very nice.
Although we were half board, we did venture out a couple of times for something different, and were not disappointed. The choice of restaurant was very good considering the time of year.
The fish and chip restaurant in Coral Bay was superb, as was the Village Meze at the Coral King restaurant (not sure if correct name) just at the back of the restaurant on the main road in Coral Bay. Don’t eat for at least 12hours beforehand as the portions for the Meze are large, but delicious!
The bus service into Paphos was very good and regular. About 25mins max. To the Harbour which is lovely.
We went on a couple of trips which were good, although I would recommend booking these direct and not via the tour operator as they are much more expensive. As we found out after speaking with people on the trips.
Overall I would definitely recommend this hotel.
