Hotel Description
Almyra Hotel Paphos is a member of Design Hotels and Charming Hotels.
Almyra, Thanos Hotels’ new contemporary Mediterranean resort in Pafos, is situated on the west coast of Cyprus minutes away from the archaeological sites of the old town with uninterrupted views across the bay towards the medieval castle and harbour of Pafos. Following extensive refurbishment, Thanos Hotels relaunched The Paphos Beach Hotel as Almyra in March 2004. The two phase renovation process took approximately two years at a total investment cost in excess of Euro 8 500 000 , bringing the property in line with the family-run group's other luxury properties - Anassa and The Annabelle.
All the rooms have been enlarged and redesigned and the signature suite, aptly named the Kyma Suite (wave in Greek) features a rooftop terrace that offers breathtaking views of the sea and the harbour. The two freshwater pools were rebuilt to include one especially for children and the two main restaurants have been relaunched to reflect the new look and feel of Almyra. Guests can look forward to creative cuisine, with menus that reflect the contemporary nature of the hotel. Almyra has the feel of a contemporary seaside resort and families play a key part at Almyra with a dedicated children's club with extra facilities and special children's menus.

Almyra is set in eight acres of landscaped gardens with unobstructed views of the harbour.
Recreational facilities include: A swimming pool which is heated during the winter months, sunbathing terraces - sunbeds and parasols free of charge, sauna, Jacuzzi, TV room, Mare Nostrum boutique selling designers ranges including Prada Sport and Etro.
