The Colony is a beautiful hotel and if you can keep in mind that this is a town centre establishment, where the main priorities are businessmen, high spending, high rolling gamblers and impressing the local glitterati, then you'll be fine here. Tourism is a sideline for the Colony with the contentment of their tourist guests not exactly their number one... more

The hotel is very good and was vastly superior to a (supposedly) four star hotel we had stayed at in Kyrenia two days previously. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Food was very good: we had a dinner in the main restaurant, lunch on the roof top terrace, and breakfast. The roof top pool was great and there were... more

I selected The Colony because it was recommended by the friends I was travelling to Northern Cyprus to visit. They, despite owning a flat in Kyrenia, have stayed here many times and they also booked in for the duration of our stay! The reception is a vast, elegant, beautifully presented space. To the side of this is the bar area... more

Difficult to fault this high quality, centrally located hotel in Kyrenia. We were worried beforehand that the Casino would be obtrusive but other than the handy looking blokes out front we were hardly aware of it. That said, we were there in late October and the place was far from full, so we could just have been lucky. The staff... more

Our main priority was to stay in a quality hotel in the centre of town (no car) and this delivered; close to post office, dolmus stops, town proper and old town. The service was excellent, the rooms spacious, well appointed ,serviced twice a day but don't expect views or balconies. Breakfast amazing choice from American pancakes to fresh figs and... more

I stayed there for two nights. It was advertised as a 5 star hotel and the prices certainly were but i was disappointed with the rooms and the decor. i was asked if i would like a sea view but i got a car park view. the breakfast was good and the staff were good also. prices very expensive in... more

This was our second visit to Northern Cyprus and to The Colony Hotel. Our first visit blew our minds away, great service, good location, good food and lovely rooms (this was 2006). We couldn't decide where to go this year as we never go back to the same place!! but as we had such a good time we thought we... more

Return visit to the Colony after 3 years previous, still a nice small 5 star hotel with excellent service and food was good especially the breakfast. Roof pool is superb and location close to town centre is good. Is best suited to older couples and no children, ideal for a nice romantic break. Just do not go in August it... more
