Villa Colonial

It is right on the edge of antigua but not too far of a walk and pretty quiet. I enjoyed the pool and the beautiful surroundings. The staff are wonderful and are very helpful.

You feel at home immediately you enter reception and meet the welcoming staff. The grounds are lovely with a beutiful views of the Volcanoes from restaurant and garden. The rooms have been quirkily set out as streets of houses with a cobbled road (not great for wheeling a suitcase especially when you are right at the back!). Our room was in a small courtyard containing several others on two storeys, it comprised two double beds with ample space adn a large shower/loo area. A hairdryer was provided and water stations were plentiful outside. This unfortunately is where the cons kick in, our room was situated right at the far left of the complex and a busy noisy road ran alongside so during it was very noisy both day and night! Maybe ask for a room on the garden side of the complex which should be quieter! There is a nice pool and the open fronted restaurant has stunning views of Volcano Fuego - which was kindly puffing smoke during our visit! Breakfast was served to order, only 3 choices - We had Omlette - ham/cheese or cheese/spinach - served with mashed beans, tortilla and hot plantain - juice - tea -coffee. It was reasonable but service was very slow especially for tea refils. Overall a nice hotel, with pleasant staff but situated a good 25 minutes walk from the town centre which given the traffic noise is not much of a plus. Would we stay again ? - yes but we would request rooms next to the garden which I suspect were much quieter. Also meaning we didn't have to negotiate the cobbled street with our wheelie bags.

Nice cozy hotel for spending a weekend and escaping from the daily rush. Super clean and very friendly staff. Indoor parking which is a plus. They have a nice patio inside which resembles a classic Antigua Park. Rooms are cozy, clean and they have a nice shower. Overall a nice place to stay with the family or that significant other.

I have just returned to the U.S. after leading a team of 31 people who served in an around Chimaltenango. We stayed for 7 nights at the Villa Colonial hotel. This is an excellent place to stay, all across the board. The staff team did a wonderful job of accommodating us (with all of our needs, too!). The breakfast served each morning was great. The rooms clean, comfortable, and spacious. The area surrounding the hotel was safe, quiet, and beautiful. I would absolutely recommend Hotel Villa Colonial and have every intention of returning with another team next year.

Our group of ten people stayed here for 2 nights at the end of a mission trip. The hotel was very nice and comfortable, with beautiful grounds and a relaxing feel. Our kids appreciated the small pool and we enjoyed both breakfast options (pancakes or traditional breakfast of eggs, beans, plantains, and fruit). The staff was very helpful, as one in our group was sick and confined to the room and they brought him food, even customizing their available menu to try to get him something he could eat. That was very much appreciated! The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of outlets to recharge phones. The only negative thing was that the shower didn't drain well, but that was a minor inconvenience. We felt the city was very walkable and felt safe even at night. I would stay here again.
