    Thecair conditioning took a bit long to cool the upper rooms!

    The host was very kind and very accomodating to our needs! The location is perfect, close to every turistic attraction granada has to offer!

    A bit of walk in to town A bit noisy at night from a next door bar but not overly so

    Location close to Lake Nicaragua meant there was a cooling breeze The Family Room was very spacious Aircon was fantastic Breakfast was a treat Staff were very kind, attentive and helpful. The manager stayed up late in to the night to wlecome us when our fight was delayed

    The rooms are a good size & well equipped with mini bar, safe box, a/c , hair dryer, tv with Netflix, & lots of storage areas. The hammocks upstairs are super comfy. The included breakfast was excellent, safe parking for rental car. I liked that we were right across from the lake, it was only a 10 minute walk to the centre of Granada. The day staff are super friendly & helpful.

    Be prepared for the authentic and rustic nature of the property. There are no blankets, just sheets, and the beds are very firm. Due to the humidity, there can be musky smells. The club next door does play music but can be mitigated with white noise or ear plugs easily. Deep sleepers won’t even notice.

    Property is clean, authentic and charming. They have bikes available to use which were awesome to use. The staff is incredible and do everything possible to help you. WiFi worked perfectly and the air conditioning did too! Hammocks to lounge upstairs were so fun and nice to use. Location is amazing. Right along the boardwalk and the main tourist street. You can easily find food and parks and quite a lively night life! We were here during Christmastime and Granada had a festival happening with lights and live music. So charming!

    I think it is in need of renovation- replastering and painting. Our room had grubby walls, and dimmer lighting than we are used to. Otherwise a very pleasant and comfortable stay.

    Very well equipped, friendly trustworthy staff and good breakfast. They provided a mosquito net on request. Bikes included in the price. Had a tv and aircon.

    I feel like Granada is so beautiful and there’s so many unique and beautiful stays that this hotel by comparison is nothing special. The hotel staff were accommodating, but it was pretty vacant when we were there and staffs presence wasn’t really felt.

    The rooms were very spacious and I like that air conditioning was included at no additional cost. The bed was comfortable and the place is located right next to the boardwalk. There is private gated parking if you have a car.

    Super host who is excited to attend to his guests. This hotel is good value for money with aircon, small gym, free bicycles, and a full breakfast. The breakfast included coffee, juice, fruit, and típico Nicaraguan breakfast. It's right by the lake with restaurants nearby. Taxis to the center square cost 30 córdobas or it's an easy 15-minute evening walk. There are restaurants close to the hotel. I would recommend this hotel.

    The room was older and little hot water. In Nicaraguan climate.It didn't affect us

    The room was clean. The staff went out of their way to help. The hotel offered a good breakfast. Bikes to borrow. Although It was out of the centre of town. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and walking to see the highlights. The boat cruise on sunset to the islets was enjoyable.

    The hotel is great and the staff is wonderful. The hotel is a little way from the city center so if you want to stay where the "action" is you will be about a 15-20 minutes walk from the city center. But the walk was pleasant and the hotel is right in front of the boardwalk which is great for a morning/afternoon walk.

    Charming Stay by the Lake

    • Solo traveller
    • Small Double Room

    My room had a water leak from the rain that got my things wet. But I was moved to a different room immediately.

    I liked this hotel and the staff so much, I stayed a couple extra nights. Eric is an incredibly hard working, kind, helpful person. I asked for a recommendation for a LAST MINUTE tour to Ometepe Island, and within half an hour on a Sunday, he made it happen. The location is near the water, nice to walk around even at night. On the 2nd floor there is a nice view and hammocks to rest. Peaceful, except for some drum practice in the evenings, which was great. The breakfasts were wonderful and gigantic: eggs, ham/bacon, fruit, beans & rice, bread, juice and coffee/tea, sometimes pancakes. A sweet kitty a part of the family. Good Wi-Fi and AC. Not a far walk to restaurants and the main square of the Cathedral. Also not far from beach area where they do the islet tours.
