Blue Crane Hotel Apartments Review

Overall Rating

Great sized appartments, spotlessly clean

Some staff can be very rude, hotel is situated on busy dual carriageway.

A mixed review for the Blue Crane Hotel Apartments. We've just returned from two weeks at The Blue Crane from the end of February '06 to March '06 - we chose The Blue Crane on the strength of the super reviews we'd seen online. The good points first. The one room appartments are very spacious and extremely well equipped, they're immaculately clean and maid service is five times weekly which is more than you'd usually expect for a self catering complex of this rating. Reception is similarly spotless and a well stocked bar serves a good range of drinks at reasonable prices.

The hotel overall could use a lick of paint in places, but that's purely cosmetic. Staff vary from the very friendly and helpful, to a couple the less than welcoming and sometimes downright rude. The biggest drawback for me was that the brochure made no mention of the fact that the hotel is situated on a very busy and noisey dual carriageway. You have to cross that, and go down past the peeling tower blocks opposite to get to a small and somewhat uninspiring beach. The afforementionned tower blocks mean that you can't really get a sea view at The Blue Crane.

Overall a nice hotel for those on a budget - but not ideal if you're looking for the beautiful beaches and quiet meditteranean holiday that you'd expect from Cyprus.

  I disagree with this review because...I have stayed at blue crane and it is three star accommodation. Staff who are all from the same family that own it are very nice if treated in the same way and I know that every year most of their profits are spent on the hotel to make it better

  I stayed at the bluecrane in 2007 with my family and I found the service very good they made us really nice breakfast, and the two pools were great my little boy loved it there the rooms are really nice too, there are three bars situated at this hotel and near by there are very good restaurants by all means they are very friendly also 3mins down the road there is a beautiful beach were there are lots of water sports jet skis para gliding and much more. They are also friendly as well, going to take my family back to this hotel next year. The water park is near by and is great to spend the hole day. I also miss the family and every one else there because they were very nice people.
