Hotel Prices in North Cyprus: 2026 Nightly Rates by Region
A hotel night in North Cyprus starts at about 3,838 TL (~€72) in summer 2026 for a Famagusta city three-star and climbs past 19,000 TL (~€360) at the Long Beach casino resorts — and every number on this page is a published “from” floor price, not an average. North Cyprus hotels list in Turkish lira on the platforms that carry them, so each band below comes with euro and pound equivalents at the June 2026 rate.
What does a hotel night cost by region in 2026?
Summer 2026 floor prices run from 3,838 TL (~€72) for a Famagusta city hotel to 26,325 TL (~€495) at the top Bafra resort, with the İskele/Long Beach strip sitting in between. The table shows each region-and-tier combination’s cheapest published nightly rate per season:
| Region | Tier | Summer from (Jun–Sep) | Winter from (Nov–Mar) |

Lira converts at the KKTC Central Bank rate of 12 June 2026 (~53.2 TL/EUR, ~61.7 TL/GBP). Kyrenia and Nicosia appear as comparison data; the rest of this guide stays on the Famagusta–İskele coast, which is where an east-coast holiday actually books. Which sand sits behind each region’s price tag is its own question — answered beach by beach in the best beaches in North Cyprus, ranked honestly. The full dataset, with per-row source links, is published at /data/guides/hotel-prices-north-cyprus.csv.
How were these prices sampled?
Every figure is a property’s cheapest published nightly rate — a “from” price — per season on Etstur, a Turkish booking platform that lists most North Cyprus hotels in lira with taxes included, sampled in June 2026 with a live mid-June week as a spot check. Three honest caveats follow from that methodology. First, a floor is not a forecast: July–August peak weeks price well above the summer floor — the Famagusta-bay casino resort whose summer from-price is 14,818 TL was showing about 18,500 TL a night for a live mid-June week. Second, board basis varies by rate, from room-only to all-inclusive, so two “from” prices can buy very different days. Third, the big international booking sites block automated sampling, so this dataset deliberately uses one consistent platform rather than mixing methodologies — treat the bands as a like-for-like index, then compare your actual dates wherever you book.
How do seasons move hotel prices?
Resorts swing hard between seasons while city hotels barely move: the İskele casino-resort floor drops from 19,250 TL in summer to 13,600 TL in winter — roughly –29% — while Nicosia’s five-star city pricing sits flat at 9,775 TL year-round, as of 2026. The pattern in one paragraph: November to March is the cheap window everywhere; beach and casino properties discount deepest because their product is seasonal; city hotels price on steady business traffic and barely blink. The exception worth knowing before you plan a winter trip is Bafra — its large resort hotels are seasonal operations, mostly running April to October, so the cheapest months are also the months with the thinnest resort choice.
What do the hotel categories mean here?
Five labels cover almost the whole North Cyprus market, and they behave differently enough to matter more than star counts. As of 2026:
- City hotel — Famagusta’s walled-city and centre stock; the budget floor of the market at 3,052–3,838 TL by season. Walkable to the old town, no beach.
- Beach hotel — mid-range properties on the Famagusta coast from about 7,441–8,800 TL; the classic sea-holiday middle.
- Apart-resort — Long Beach’s signature product: apartment units inside resort complexes with pools and facilities, from about 5,804–6,332 TL by season. The İskele/Long Beach strip is mostly new-build — our Long Beach guide covers the area itself.
- Casino resort — the five-star segment is dominated by large casino-resort complexes; they carry the island’s highest floors (13,000–26,325 TL by region and season) and bundle entertainment, pools and multiple restaurants. Listed here as market data — whether the casino floor is a feature or a thing to walk past is your call.
- Karpaz guesthouse — the peninsula runs on small guesthouses and boutique places; published fixed nightly rates are rare. Tripadvisor lists about 21 B&Bs around Dipkarpaz, and the one hard boutique datapoint found prices from about $208 a night (low confidence). Treat Karpaz as enquiry-priced and book direct.
How do you pair the hotel with a car?
A Famagusta or Long Beach hotel pairs with a rental car at zero delivery cost: Kipra Rent A Car is a Famagusta-based local rental company that delivers cars free of charge across Famagusta and to Long Beach, with VAT and third-party insurance included in every displayed price. The handover-at-reception mechanics are in the hotel delivery guide, and if you land at Ercan the airport pickup page covers the arrival end. Budget-wise the car is the line that turns a beach-resort stay into an island trip — the trip budget guide puts hotel, food and fuel lines together so you can see the whole week’s number in one place.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the cheapest months for hotels in North Cyprus?
November to March. Resort floors drop hardest — the İskele casino-resort from-price falls from 19,250 TL in summer to 13,600 TL in winter — while city hotels barely move. Note that some Bafra resorts close entirely outside April–October.
Is Long Beach or Famagusta city better value?
Different products at different floors, as of 2026: a Famagusta city three-star starts around 3,838 TL a night in summer, a Long Beach apart-resort around 6,332 TL. The city buys location and budget; Long Beach buys the beach, pools and new-build stock.
Do hotels take euros or pounds?
Very often, yes — many hotels quote rates in EUR or GBP and accept both, with change given in lira. Everyday spending around the hotel still runs in Turkish lira, so carry some TRY regardless.
Is breakfast usually included?
It varies by rate, not by hotel: the same property can list room-only, bed and breakfast, half board and all-inclusive rates. Check the board note on the rate you compare — it moves the real nightly cost more than the star count does.
