    great location
    noisy room
    limited breakfast

    Here’s what works – and what doesn’t

    Fantastic location close to Getsemani and the historical center! ! The staff were incredibly friendly, and the security of the premises ensured we felt safe during our stay.

    While the breakfast was decent, the room needed improvement regarding noise and lighting. it felt a bit cramped.

    delicious breakfast
    dated facilities

    Had a pleasant time at Villa Colonial. The location is fantastic, right near Getsemani and the historic center. It made walking to nearby attractions super easy. The staff were incredibly friendly, always ready to help. Enjoyed the delicious breakfast, which was freshly prepared daily. Our first room was a bit dark and noisy, but they quickly switched us to a more comfortable one on request. However, the facilities seemed a bit dated and could use some upgrades. Room service could be more prompt. Overall, a good stay that balanced comfort and budget.

    comfortable beds
    daily cleaning
    poor noise

    The beds provide a solid level of comfort, crucial for a good night's rest. Daily cleaning ensures the spaces remain tidy throughout your stay.

    Internet access proved very spotty, especially for rooms facing certain directions. The electrical socket in my room was loose, complicating the process of charging devices. Noise travels easily, making it difficult to sleep. I heard conversations from the reception area and clattering from the breakfast preparation early in the morning.

    rooftop breakfast
    shared rooms
    small room

    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The rooftop breakfast view was incredible, and I loved the shared rooms for more social vibes. However, the room was on the smaller side, and I would have preferred more space overall.

    internet access

    We truly enjoyed the great location of the hotel, which made walking to various attractions super easy. The breakfast was quite satisfying for our large family, with enough options to please everyone. The staff was incredibly warm and made us feel at home.

    In my wife's opinion, the internet access could be improved for families with children.

    great location
    limited breakfast options

    Had a great time with friends exploring nearby attractions. The staff was fantastic, helpful with tips for visiting the Fortress and Plaza Santo Domingo. The rooms were clean and the location was perfect—one street away from the buzzing main street yet still quiet. Daily breakfast was decent too. Definitely a solid choice for a fun group vacation!

    One downside was the breakfast. it could use some variety and improvement. Not everyone enjoyed the selections available during our stay.

    Great Location and Friendly Staff!

    Our 4-night stay in a cozy double room exceeded expectations! The breakfast was fresher and tastier than I anticipated—definitely start your day with it. While the bathroom needed some attention, the staff's friendliness made our experience memorable. Be sure to explore nearby attractions on foot!
