This small family hotel (run by a nice Dutch lady) is very conveniently located close to downtown Willemsstad, which you can easily explore on foot. The rooms are quite ok. However you have to climb very steep stairs. Also the rooms have no (glass) windows, only shutter. Which gives everything a very tropical look and feel. Luckily the noise of... More

If you want to stay in the center of Willemstad, here's a very good option. The hotel is located just 2 minutes walking from the floating market but it's still in quiet area. The hotel has two buildings, the main building has also sitting room with TV and PC to be used by guests. I stayed in the other building... More

Thank you very much for your nice words. Too bad you didn't ask our nightguard for the earplugs during the party at Villa Maria . We have them for our guests. And you are so right ; normally we know when there is a party going on and we tell our guests, but this time we didn't know about it.... More

Our room was always clean, comfortable, and had plenty of sunlight pouring in. The staff was always available, though sometimes you would have to search the grounds for them. The 'grounds' were always very clean and well kept. Very attractive to walk around on. There is a small, jacuzzi size pool, free parking, and free computer/wifi access. We never felt... More

after 2 weeks in Curacao, we stayed there for our last night as the other hotel was fully booked. The hotel's location is in a so so area, looks a bit dodgy. the first room which was given to us was not cleaned. But the nice staff gave us another room. The room was very spacious with high ceiling. However,... More

I’m so sorry that you had this terrible and frightening experience . The security guard had to tell you more details about what has happened. We called the police for this man that was out of control, and while we were waiting he was really screaming and shouting. Again My deepest apologize for this scary experience More

This hotel is adorable. It's clean, quiet, spacious, centrally located, and has a beautiful little courtyard. The staff is friendly and helpful. The building itself is an old historic mansion with tons of character and a lovely common area with a television and lending library. We were given a free upgrade to a deluxe room with a kitchenette, living area,... More

I stayed at Hotel Scharloo the last week of November. It is a wonderful place to stay -- the staff is super helpful. The rooms are spacious -- I was even given the Queen deluxe room at the same prize as the normal rooms ($80) -- a great value. Unfortunately, it rained both days I was there so I did... More

Quaint and charming, this renovated hotel is tucked away by the waterfront on a backstreet, but is close to the bridge that links to the shopping area. Small parlor with TV, fridge, sink and hotplate. Our room faced a lovely courtyard with lounging pool...steep staircase to upstairs rooms. Staff (Nelson, Nora, Everon) were friendly and helpful with directions, calling taxi... More

I stayed with my sister in Hotel Scharloo for 3 or 4 nights. When we booked the room, we happened to get the King Suite to the price of a normal room, as part of a special first-come-first-serve promotion. The room was clean and spacious with a nice balcony overlooking the floating market. Air conditioned bed room, fan in living... More

Hotel Scharloo is situated in a beautiful colonial building only minutes from the center of Willemstad. Our room was spacious and very tastefully renovated with the colonial feel still there. The airco worked fine but we prefer the fan, the beds were fine, the shower worked fine, although one should not expect a heat festival...but hey, these are the Tropics,... More
