My husband and I stayed at Hotel Casa Naranja on the recommendation of a friend and arrived with an open mind as we were only staying one night. Good or bad, it would be a short stay. Walking thru the front gates, we wished right away that we were staying longer. The decor is so interesting with artifacts tucked in nooks and crannies. Fresh flowers floating in bowls and huge arrangements in the garden added to the charm. The breakfast was the best out of the 3 hotels we stayed at and service was exceptional. I'd recommend this hotel without a doubt and will certainly stay again when passing back thru Managua.

We certainly weren't prepared, after reading various travel guides about Managua, to find an oasis of beauty in the heart of Managua. But we certainly did with Hotel Case Naranja. The hotel is lovely, gardens galore! The common rooms and patios are very lovely, with nice seating overlooking the surrounding garden. We were greated by a glass of cold juice and a great member of the staff. Very tranquil. We were given restaurant recommendations, with the staff member even walking us out the front door and part way down the block to point out some nice places to eat (within easy walking distance). We recommend the Peruvian restaurant two doors down. The beds were clean and comfortable, the bathroom nice. All in all a great experience. We had made the mistake of making reservations at the Best Western at the airport but after reading multiple reviews against that idea, made the last minute decision to go here, and I'm so glad we did!

I stayed in Hotel Casa Naranja in Managua as part of my vacation to Nicaragua. No problems whatsoever making a reservation through the hotel's website. Great communication with the hotel staff through e-mail prior to arrival, too! The hotel arranged a taxi pickup ($17 USD) and the driver was waiting outside just past customs at the airport. The hotel was clean and comfortable, and was quite beautiful considering it was nestled in the heart of gritty and rugged Managua! Reception staff spoke both English and Spanish and was always friendly and smiling. Breakfast consisted of a menu with 10 choices, and was enough to get you started each morning. Beds were comfortable with clean linens in great condition. The bathroom had great towels, with hot water in the shower. Rooms were very clean and fresh smelling. Air conditioning was COLD in the hot and humid city. This hotel is a GREAT alternative to the pricier Hotel Intercontinental, and is located near great restaurants (Cocina de Dona Haydee, Tercer Ojo) in the neighborhood. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone considering staying in Managua for any length of time in the future.

Absolute Tranquility in the heart of the Huge city of Managua. What a treasure we found at the last minute, as a back up plan to stay in Managua the night before our flight back to the states. We were mesmerized with the Service from the front door and until we left. Ivan took unequealed care to provide us with, what we consider a 5 star room, meals, and information. We had internet "whew, it had been 5 days", cable, Ice cold water, AC, a view of lush tropical rain forest! This establishment is truely a Gem.
