We stayed here at the end of January and loved it. Found the rooms nice and roomy and the staff very helpful AND the price was right! The location is perfect for exploring. Try the restaurant as well we had a very nice meal here.

Hotel Colonial is a quaint hotel one block off the zocolo in the heart of the Centro district of Puelba. This hotel has an amazingly friendly staff. The restaurant has good food and an excellent wait staff. The rooms are large and airy. Many of them open out onto a balcony overlooking the street below. The hotel sits across from... More

Interesting old building in the middle of everything, yet because of the site, not too noisy. Decor in the public areas somewhat stuffy, but in keeping with the colonial character. Staff not especially friendly, but functional. I question this hotel's selection as a good value; rooms are 810 pesos plus 100 extra per day for parking, almost $80. However, many... More

I stayed in this hotel for 2 nights as part of a tour trip of 44 persons, so did not choose it myself. Nothing fancy here, but very comfortable, clean, very nice staff. Location is excellent for sightseeing in Puebla; very near to all of the major churches, the zocalo. Opening the generous French doors was necessary for ventilation, but... More

I stayed 2 nights at the Hotel Colonial and enjoyed it immensely. It is centrally located a block from the Zocalo in Puebla. I found it very safe and very clean. The restaurant served wonderful food of several varieties, both local and international which for this American was a welcome break from the spices that I otherwise love so much.... More

Hotel Colonial de Puebla has excellent service all round. Our room was clean and comfortable. The location of the hotel is central and good for tourists. We'd stay here again should we return to Puebla. And there's a great view of Puebla and surrounds from the roof top.

We liked - the colonial styled corresponding to the name of the hotel is being very well maintained and polished creating, together with the service, hotel-specific ambience - central location - very good level of service - price / quality ratio that is more than fair - special parking place in a covered courtyard (good point if you are travelling...

This customer called first saying that the hotel was great but he had lost some jewelry during his visit to Puebla and perhaps he forgot it in the room. We searched the room and nothing was found. Next he sent a message saying that he was now sure that the jewelry had been stolen by someone in the hotel. We... More

The Colonial is something special, because of it history, but also because of where it is located in Puebla. It is absolutely perfect for the tourist and a great place to be in town. It is not flashy and some of the fittings are run down, the wifi is slow, but all of that is irrelevant in the face of... More

Many hotels in this price range can be a crapshoot, but the Colonial was above average for this price. The location was perfect, plus they have attached parking which is huge if you're driving as we were. We actually had 2 different rooms for our trip to and from Oaxaca. The first was above the kitchen, and there was some... More
