Hotel Casa Colonial

Hotel Casa Colonial is a good boutique hotel in the central section of Managua. If you’re spending some time there and need a centrally located place from which to go on a daylong tour of the city and up to Masaya Volcano or Laguna de Apoyo, it’s really good. The decor is very interesting and they serve a traditional Nicaraguan breakfast each morning. The only drawback I would say is the language barrier was a little difficult to navigate as an American. I asked to have my towels changed and the concierge staffer didn’t really understand what I meant. That miscommunication aside, it’s very charming and more than amenable for a stay in the Capital City

The moment I walked into the room, I was greeted by a swarm of mosquitoes flying around like they owned the place. On the bed, I counted at least a hundred dead little flies—yes, on the bed! The sheets clearly hadn’t been changed or washed recently. The smell of sweat from previous guests was overwhelming and absolutely revolting. The shower? A complete joke. The showerhead looked like it hadn’t been replaced in decades. Note to the owner: It doesn’t take much to make a place decent. If you know guests are coming, spray the room for bugs ahead of time. Change the sheets after every guest—yours reek. Fix the shower. It takes minimal effort to show a little care, and guests might actually enjoy staying here. As it stands, this was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had.

Good location, breakfast, hot shower, everything.

Nothing bad.

Friendliness of the Staff. From beginning to end.

Not able to stay longer!

As other guests mentioned, bed was very comfortable. And breakfast was good enough. Staff were very friendly.

Inside the room was too dark. A lot of mosquitoes were flying always. Bed sheet and pillow covered were never changed during my stay for 8 nights.

Staff very helpful in arranging an early airport taxi. Delightful ambiance.
