Beautiful hotel in a great location. The room was nicely decorated with a large washroom. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food for breakfast was excellent, both healthy and less healthy options available, both delicious. The only issue was that it’s in such a good location that it can get noisy late at night/early morning. The hotel provides ear buds with the room amenities to deal with all the honking!

Clean spacious room with gorgeous bathroom and balcony. Lovely restaurant and great breakfast. Very nice rooftop pool. The only drawback is it’s loud in the heart of the old city across the street from a very old restaurant bar. The staff were very accommodating.

My wife and I had the pleasure of staying at Casona del Colegio along with the rest of our wedding party. The hotel manager Mr. Rojas and the rest of the staff went above and beyond to coordinate our wedding party and make our stays memorable. Never had such a warm and welcoming experience at any other hotel quite like how Mr. Rojas and his staff treated us during our entire stay. The hotel is beautiful and conveniently located near all the best restaurants, nightlife, shopping and close to the docks for day trips to the islands. The hotel lobby, pool, and common areas were clean and chic. The hotel rooms were very nice and the beds were comfortable. The restaurant and bar were both great as well. The hotel was secure and had a doorman greet us every time we entered. I highly recommend this hotel to everyone. Thank you again Mr. Rojas!
