The Colosseum

Quick access to shopping and beach. People were friendly, hospitable and helpful.

It’s an inexpensive little hotel right near the cruise ship dock downtown, I was pleasantly surprised with this little Roman gem

Very convenient for what we needed

That’s not a hotel

Lots of pros and some cons...This guesthouse is downtown Basseterre and is above an Asian grocery with no elevator. It is on the waterfront so prepare for beautiful seaviews &sounds of the open bay. Its footsteps away from ferry terminal which can get you to Nevis easily and other affordable local transportation. The rooms are nicely furnished and clean. Showers have very hot water. While its true that the surounding neigbourhood IS a bit rough/shady, the property is very walkable to the market, supermaket and main parts of town as well as the cruise ship terminal for more restaurant options. The host is very responsive and willing to assist..just a phone call away. As a solo female traveller i highly recommend a door jam to improve your feeling of safety/privacy. Similar to other reviews I had a mix up with my room booking but the host tried his best to resolve which i truly appreciated. I would suggest to the host to have a community kitchen stovetop which allows persons to make light meals where smaller rooms dont have kitchettes. Overall I would say it's budget friendly and you cant beat the location for basseterre.

NO ROOM SERVICE FOR A 3 NIGHT STAY. NO STAFF PRESENT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT ANYTHING.On arrival they first told us we have no booking there until I saw the manager. I will never recommend this place for anyone. We heard confrontational arguments between the manager and guests who were turned away because of overbooking.

Nice clean rooms in a location very close to city centre. Handy for bus and ferry terminals and Port Zante shops and restaurants. Good views over the bay towards Nevis. Friendly and attentive staff.

I wouldn't know how the inside was since it was overbooked and I was left stranded I actually had to spend three times the money to go stay at a good hotel.... My money also wasn't refunded be very careful when dealing with these type of properties where the owners are small time and not reliable

Nice place

Upon entering the property, I was greeted by Homer, he is the owner. The steps, porch, passage, and room were all clear and clean. The bed was well made up with white sheets. He gave me my keys along with the wifi password and a contact number, he was very professional. I checked the bathroom, standard amenities, no tub thou, but that's fine as it is a guest house. I went on the porch, there were 3 cruise ships in that day, Absolutely stunning! A magnificent view of the town Basseterre as well, oh you can see the ferry terminal, which takes you to the beautiful small island of Nevis, just 2 minutes walking distance to the felly and bus terminal. The Colosseum is located in the town of Basseterre so it's quite easy to access restaurants, banks, and other businesses. I did enjoy my stay and I look forward to returning. Cheers, Homer.
