We arrived at Colonial B&B after climbing the Pico do Fogo. We were still dusty and used to the cold and dark nights inside the crater. Colonial B&B was just what we needed: bathrobes, pool, a huge bathroom, hot shower, impeccably clean rooms and good staff, all in a tastefully refurbished colonial mansion. Before staying at B&B Colonial we also... More

if you want a cheap room with noisy neighbors just to kill the time between going up to the volcano or down to the port or over to the airport - don't come. if you want fast food and disco music - don't come. if you want shop until you drop - guess what ?, don't come.... but if you... More

My wife and I have traveled extensively in Cape Verde and this is, by far, the nicest place we have stayed. It beats the pensaos in Sao Vicente and the "five-star" resorts on Boa Vista. The owners, Vincent and Luisa, are absolutely wonderful people and went out of their way to try and accommodate our wishes. The room we had... More

Having lived in Cape Verde for several years, this was our 1st visit to Fogo, and it was not disappointing. Thanks to the Trip advisor and the positive reviews, we booked to stay at the Colonial House, and were treated as part of the family, the owner and all the staff were friendly and customer service second to none. The... More

We have just visited the lovely island of Fogo with friends and stayed in the Colonial for 2 nights. It is a beautiful friendly hotel with loads of charm, terrific staff and an enthusiastic and most helpful owner in Luisa - who simply could not do enough. We would definitely return and have no hesitation in recommending this venue to... More

We were treated so well even though we weren't staying overnight. The Colonial is the perfect base for those with a few hours in San Filipe or a few days. Glorious building full of polished floorboards and tranquility and a fabulous rooftop pool. As they also own Zebra travel they can arrange anything too. Strongly recommended.

We stayed in this guest house in Sao Fillipe and found it utterly charming. We received a very warm welcome from Marie Grace on our arrival and she was very helpful and friendly throughout our stay. The Guest House is beautiful and our room was lovely and cool. We made great use of the pool and were happy with both... More

We stayed for 4 nights and we really enjoyed it. The old building is beautifull and very tastefully restored. Everything is very well thought of. The terrace with lots of couches, sunbeds, view over the town and sea and even a small pool is fantastic. The manager, madame Luisa was very welcoming. When we had a flight cancelled she went...

The hotel is ideally situated in the heart of Sao Filipe in an old restored sobrado-style willa. Has an air of getting back in time, but at the same time all the things you need (maybe accept for constant internet access, but this is rare in Cape Verde). The rooms are bright, with colonial style interiors, but not "too much"... More
