We needed a hotel room for one night in San Juan Del Sur on our way up north. Hotel Colonial worked out great. Rooms are small and simple but great for the price. The hotel is a block off the beach but very quiet. It has a nice little garden area where we sat and had drinks (we bought our... More

This was a nice stay for 2 days. Breakfast was free, the room was clean but relatively small. Nothing to complain for the price, particularly during the Easter holiday. It was walking distance from the beach and also close to the sort of touristic centre. I would go back for sure. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Hotel Colonial is located in the heart of San Juan del Sur. From the hotel it is only a short walk to the beach or to the most popular restaurants in town. The staff was very friendly and helpful.The rooms are small but perfect for the traveler who doesn't want to spend lots of money and is only using the... More

Our room was small. The flimsy curtains do not block outside light. This is no problem at night because ambient light is low. Noise was no problem for us. We slept until around 8 am each day. The room was clean and cleaned daily. The hot water was produced by a contraption on the shower head. Your choice of water... More

Stayed here our last two nights after dealing w rain every day of our trip and wanted to "treat" ourselves to hot showers. Staff was very friendly when we got there. Maids were extremely nice and did everything to make us comfortable. Clean rooms, great hot shower, safe, quiet, fair value for what you pay.

The location of this hotel in fantastic, you are literally a few skips from the beach. That said, you end up paying for the location. The room itself was pretty stuffy and not the best value for that price. I stayed there two nights and bothe mornings at around 6 am it beccomes incredibly noisy- sound travels heavily here, so...

Went to San Juan de sur for 3 nights and stayed at this hotel. We went with our 3 year old, 10 and 13 year old boys. They upgraded us to a triple room with three beds which was great. Cozy room with AC, ceiling fan and TV. Staff were very friendly and made us feel welcome. The cleaning staff... More

The Colonial is a solid (brick!) place in the center of town. It's sort of inbetween a nicer place you might find for a bit more and some lower priced places. But in that regard, if you can spring for more its probably worth it. I would have paid more for a nearby place that has "Blue" in its name.... More

San Juan is not a big town - if you're a tourist, it's little more than a large beach curving around a bay, and a few blocks of shops and restaurants. The hotel is just far enough from the main bars and restaurants to be quiet late in the evening. The hotel is a couple of blocks away from the... More
