Established beachfront hotel at Punta Cancun in the centre of the nightlife strip.
Krystal Cancun is an established beachfront hotel at Boulevard Kukulcan Km 9 on Punta Cancun, in the centre of the Hotel Zone's nightlife strip in Quintana Roo, Mexico. The hotel is one of the older names in the area and sits within easy reach of Forum by the Sea, Playa Caracol, the Convention Center and the Mayan Museum, with the airport about 15 to 20 minutes away by road. The hotel-zone bus stops on the boulevard outside, so guests can reach downtown Cancun cheaply, and the busiest clubs and bars of the strip are practically at the door. The property has a straightforward, mid-range character, with a pool facing the sea and a beach frontage on the busy Punta Cancun stretch. Accommodation includes Standard Rooms, Superior Rooms and Suites, and prices are among the lower ones for a beachfront address on the Hotel Zone. Listed amenities include a beachfront setting, a pool, restaurants, a bar and wifi, with no spa, kids club or fitness center listed. Dining is provided by on-site restaurants and a bar, and the large number of restaurants nearby gives plenty of alternatives for lunch and dinner. The pool and beach are the main leisure features. Nightly rates run from about MXN 1,925 to 4,550 (approx. USD 110 to 260), which makes it a good-value choice for travellers who want to be in the centre of the action, and the rating of around 4.0 reflects a basic but well-placed hotel. Service is practical and informal, appealing to groups of friends, couples and budget-minded families. Visitors should be aware that the area is noisy at night, that facilities are simpler than at the large resorts, and that beach conditions, including currents and seasonal seaweed, should be checked on arrival.
