Excellent hotel in a great central, safe location. The staff at the front desk spoke very good English and was very helpful. One word of caution, don’t use the ‘free’ phone at the front desk, it is not free – and your phone call (even local ones) will show up on your bill. The location is perfect, right off the... more

We only stayed here for a night but were very impressed and I highly recommend it. $75 plus tax for a double room on the second floor with breakfast. Very efficient reception (Lauren, who once lived in California) made a Leon hotel booking for us without a bother. She was pleasant. The breakfast was perhaps the best we had in... more

Best hotel in Nicaragua in my opinion. Clean, hot water, beautiful (I mean Beautiful!) hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. First class treatment all the way. The only problem we had was with the cafe. The woman who ran the cafe during the day was rude and ripped everyone off with exchange rates!! I saw another couple get on... more

My wife and I stayed in 4 hotels in Nicaragua, and this was our favorite. The room was huge and clean, and the bathroom had HOT water. (Seriously, you need to be careful you don't burn yourself.) The rooms overlook a quiet courtyard with a swimming pool. Breakfast was great--some of the best gallo pinto we had in Nicaragua. The... more

Both were clean, well decorated and sunny (request the second floor!). They only serve breakfast but it was great (don't believe they offer complimentary breakfast with the room anymore but if you do negotiate that... more

An amazing room, right opposite the bar, all very clean, and the perfect place to spend the last night. The whole place is a colonial gem, as is the town itself, the location could not have been better,... more

Have been staying at this Hotel for years, and in terms of charm and consistency it is the best. There are some newcomers - but this hotel delivers every time. more

We read the other reviews of this hotel before having our travel agent book it as part of our package. As you can imagine, we were surprised that our experience was vastly different from others who have stayed here, but we urge you to consider our experience. 1. First room choice had one tiny one window the size of an... more

We go to Nica every year on a mission trip. We work in several locations but we ALWAYS stay at Hotel Colonial. The staff is extremely accommodating to our needs and goes out of their way to assist us on every front. They are one of the most wonderful things about Nicaragua. Even the year that they were doing construction... more
