Location

Alecander the Great Hotel Map

In front of the hotel a seafront promenade runs the length of the beach to the shops, bars and restaurants of Paphos harbour, just over one mile away. Here, you will also find the UNESCO-listed archaeological site of Nea Paphos, home to prehistoric monuments. Behind this ancient site is the House of Dionysus with its mosaic-tiled floor. The Tomb of the Kings, a necropolis of catacombs, is around two miles from the hotel. The nearest bus stop is 20 metres away. The drive to/from the airport takes approximately 30 minutes.

Out and about

On the island’s southern coast, the extensive ruins of Kourion feature a Greco-Roman theatre, numerous mosaics, a bathing complex and more. Entrance costs around €5 pp and you can reach the site by bus in approximately one hour. Continue a little further by bus and you will reach the city of Limassol.

Limassol

The lively city of Limassol has a vibrant marina and promenade lined with shops. Take a stroll around the narrow lanes of its quaint Old Town, where you will find plenty of shops, a cathedral, town hall and medieval castle.
