Sweet Memories Hotel Apartments

Avoid Sweet Memories Standard Apartments. The AC is ancient, barely works, and sounds like a tractor. No remote control, no way to change the temperature, nothing. The staff didn’t care at all — just kept repeating that the place was fully booked and they had no remotes. They told me to come back at 17:00 to speak to the manager, and when I did, I was shouted at instead of helped. I’ve never been treated so poorly as a paying guest. Absolutely terrible experience.

Stayed here for a couple of nights and to be blunt, the room was awful. The room was so dated. The bath was filthy and also used a shower curtain rather than a screen (no amenities offered in the rooms such as shower gel). Water pressure of the shower was practically none existent. The air conditioning unit was so old it sounded like it was about to take off so you either had it on and couldn’t sleep due to the noise or kept it off and it was too humid (understand the heat can’t be helped but this needs updated). Couldn’t open the window in the room. The fridge made a constant racket throughout the night as well. If you didn’t lock the door immediately it would pretty much blow open. Only gave one extra pillow in the room and not 2 but the pillows were flat at best After speaking with who we was travelling with who was here last year, it looks like a case of these rooms not being updated as the room they had last year was much better and nicer. That’s the negatives but some positives below The actual hotel it’s self is quite small, family friendly. Nice pool area. Staff are really nice. Shop across the road to get everything you need or the hotel sells snacks etc. easy 20 minute walk to the strip.

This was booked just for the night as we are staying in Paphos and wanted to visit Protaras. The first impression was fine for what we had paid but as soon as we were eventually taken to our apartment it went down hill very fast the smell was awful and the fridge was disgusting some had used the toilet and not flushed it! Staff were ok not overly friendly. Location wise ok but a good walk to the bars etc. Yes I know it was cheap but at least it should have been clean! We decided to leave and return to our lovely apartment in Paphos.

this is our second visit and wont be our last, staff are all super friendly , the owner is lovely , and Costa is great , behind the bar, our superior apartment was immaculate , room was cleaned daily and nothing was any trouble if tou wanted extra towels etc , now to the nitty gritty , ive read all the negative reviews , and i totally disagree , ive stayed in many 5 star plus hotels all over the world , and paid 5 star plus prices , this is a 2 star plus hotel , so you get what you pay for !! so i find it unfair on this establishment when people slate it , ive met people here who come three times a year and have been for years , we cant wait to come back in September

Ok. My honest opinion. After reading the reviews I was apprehensive. However we had booked as it was a good price for self catering and was near the Strip. TUI only offered Superior Rooms. I was concerned to read about only one lift as I use a walking stick and we are 75 and 73 however I emailed the hotel and requested lift access or ground floor. On arrival at 9.30pm the manager came out to greet us , booked us in not unfriendly. The room on the first floor faced the road but noise not a problem. The room was clean, big and modern. The furniture was Home Bargains rather than John Lewis but nothing wrong with that ! Shower was walk in clean. 2 cooking rings and a toaster and kettle. Worked for us ! Plenty of sunbeds lots obviously new. The pool and area were fine. There are only two ladder type steps to access and unfortunately because of my back condition I couldn't use. I did get in on the first day but struggled to get out so didn't go in again. I have given a score of 4 because our experience was good. I would say it was a bit of a trek to the middle or bottom of the strip for me due to mobility. But there is a bus stop just a bit up from the hotel and taxis are reasonable. A walkway at the side of the Sfinx cuts off the corner which helps. However a nice pub, Diamonds Showbar, Red Indian , two Cypriot restaurants and an Indian restaurant all on the road between the hotel and the strip and a complete flat walk. Nameless Restaurant also a bit further but again flat. We found if we walked down to the top half of the strip it was manageable and if we ended up at Ghetto,Ripples or Jokers Square the walk back was fine. For what we paid this was good value. The staff were also friendly.
