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

The hotel is in a great location right next to the central park and close to the restaurants and the lake. The staff was very welcoming, especially the doormen. The only problem we encountered was that there was a significant hole in the ceiling above my bed and when it rained the two nights we stayed there, the water would... more

Attractive hotel just off the main square with lots of cafes and restaurants nearby. We had a large, beautifully decorated room and also enjoyed the pool area. Reception staff were helpful and although there was only one computer available for internet use, it was never a problem getting to use it. We'd definitely stay here again. more

Stayed 3 nights in April 2008. Very nice hotel with about 35 rooms. Well maintained, quiet, and two small but nice pools. Rooms are good with large bed - ask to see the rooms as some have windows and allow more light during the day (I had room # 8 on second floor towards the rear). Really like the property... more

We are a family of five and we really enjoyed the Hotel Colonial. The atmosphere is fabulous, and our kids (ages 7,10 and 12) loved both pools. One pool is by the bar, and we could easily get cocktails while the kids swam. We were hungry one afternoon, and the restaurant was closed-they ordered a pizza for us from down... more

This is just a phenomenal hotel in an amazing town. Colonial is a peaceful respite from the bustle of Granada. We loved sitting by the pool, and the rooms, pool, breakfast room and lobby all have intense character and charm that is distinctly Nicaraguan. We were traveling as a group of grad students on spring break, about 11 of us... more

My husband and I came back to visit Granada after 17 years. Many things have changed for the better,a bigger choice of restaurants, cafes, hotel and hostels, and Granada is now an up and coming city attracting tourists from all over the worldl. This time we travelled with our three daughters, couldn't stay in the cheap hostels, but had to... more

we stayed at the Colonial from Nov. 21 to Nov. 24, 2006 GRANADA: I am really glad you booked us into the "Hotel Colonial" and not the Hotel La Grand Francia. We checked it out and saw, that the Pool is not in an open area, it has a cover and no sunshine would come in. The Pool at the... more
