How to Choose the Best Hotels in Kyrenia, North Cyprus
North Cyprus is an ideal holiday location for those seeking a true taste of this lovely Mediterranean island, free from the overdevelopment and overcrowding of the south coast resorts. The top holiday destination in North Cyprus is Kyrenia, a charming town on the north coast of the island, with possibly the prettiest Venetian harbour in the Mediterranean.
Kyrenia (or Girne, as the Turkish Cypriots call it) may be easy to reach from North Cyprus Ercan International Airport, but choosing the right hotel for your holiday is not so easy. The lack of direct booking websites for Kyrenia accommodation means that many tourists have to rely on brochure descriptions designed to sell package holidays, a less than ideal situation.
So, here is a mini-guide to the best hotels in Kyrenia, and why you might book them for your next holiday. We have given suggestions for the right type of Kyrenia hotel for your types of holiday in North Cyprus, with details on each of the hotels suggested at the end of this article.
Kyrenia Hotels for Culture VulturesIf you love cultural sites and historic towns, you’ll want to stay right in the heart of Kyrenia itself. The narrow alleys and streets of the old town wind down the hill to the Venetian harbour itself, lined with excellent restaurants that occupy the old carob storage warehouses. The harbour is still guarded by the impressive Kyrenia Castle, which houses one of the world’s oldest shipwrecks, dating from Phoenician times.
