Hotel Plaza Colon

A boutique gem exuding elegance and charm

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.
