Yes, but I think most people would find the Paphiopedilum group the easiest to care for. There are a few tough species (faiirieanum, charlesworthii, tigrinum for example) but the vast majority are some of the easiest orchids of all to grow. Species like insigne, villosum, gratrixianum and spicerianum can be grown by just about anyone under a wide range of conditions. They can be grown quite cool, so can handle life outside in the back yard. They multiply very fast and can reach specimen size in a short period of time. No matter how much abuse and neglect they receive, they keep on keeping on.
Compare that to the sigmatopetalums which require warm temperatures and high humidity, conditions that most of us can only provide in specialised glasshouses. Most of these species do not clump well and rarely increase to more than a handful of growths. I think most of the general public would struggle to keep these species alive for any considerable time.
