Hotel Plaza Colon is surrounded by the city's oldest churches, monasteries, and museums

Hotel Plaza Colon overlooks the picturesque Parque Central and is a majestic historic hotel.

Situated opposite the cathedral, this boutique gem exudes elegance and charm and was formerly the residence of local aristocratic families. The building has been lovingly transformed into a four-star hotel, preserving its classic 19th-century façade. The 27 spacious rooms, once part of a colonial-era mansion, boast grand proportions and elegant décor, featuring sleek modern touches while honouring the local colonial style. Dark-wood furnishings, vaulted ceilings, and biodegradable amenities create a luxurious yet eco-conscious atmosphere.

Guests can unwind in the central courtyard oasis, complete with a refreshing outdoor pool surrounded by rooms on both levels. An onsite bar, breakfast area, and gym cater to every need, while the hotel's central location offers easy access to Granada's finest dining options along Calle La Calzada.

Surrounded by the city's oldest churches, monasteries, and museums, and just a stroll away from the shores of Lake Nicaragua, guests can immerse themselves in Granada's rich history and natural beauty. Two lush interior courtyards provide a serene escape from the hustle and bustle, with vibrant contemporary touches adding flair to the bar and coffee shop.

January

This month offers sunny days and warm temperatures, making it perfect for exploring beaches like San Juan del Sur and Corn Islands.

February

Similar to January, February boasts excellent weather for outdoor activities such as hiking in the lush rainforests or enjoying water sports on the Pacific coast.

March

As the dry season continues, March is ideal for visiting colonial cities like Granada and León, with comfortable temperatures and clear skies.

April

Easter celebrations in Nicaragua are vibrant and colourful, particularly in cities like Masaya and Managua, offering cultural experiences for visitors.

May

May marks the start of the rainy season, but it's still possible to enjoy the country's natural beauty while avoiding crowds at popular tourist spots.

June

Rainfall increases in June, so travelers can take advantage of lower prices and fewer tourists while exploring attractions like Ometepe Island and the Masaya Volcano.

July

Despite occasional showers, July offers opportunities for eco-tourism adventures, including birdwatching in the cloud forests of the Mombacho Volcano Nature Reserve.

August

The rainy season continues in August, but visitors can still enjoy the country's diverse wildlife by exploring national parks like Indio-Maíz Biological Reserve.

September

September is a particularly wet month throughout the country and we do not recommend visiting at this time.

October

October is similar to September and the height of the wet season.

November

As the wet season eases off and drier days commence, November offers pleasant weather for outdoor activities such as zip-lining in the canopy forests and volcano trekking.

December

The holiday season brings festive atmosphere to Nicaragua, with lively street markets and celebrations in cities like Managua and Estelí. Christmas & New Year holidays are popular times for travel throughout the region.

Far and Wild went above and beyond to make sure my trip to Zambia was special. I would definitely recommend them and their services to anyone wanting to travel to Africa.

Lovely holiday at the amazing Almanara on Galu beach, a beach like no other. Far and Wild excelled themselves from beginning to end of our holiday in beautiful Kenya.... What a country!,

Wow! These guys are amazing. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Friendly AND efficient! Sorted out our trip (last minute and lots of different family member needs, sorry!) in record time and everything worked like clockwork. Trip of a lifetime to the Masai Mara. Will be back (and use F&W again!)!
