Overall I enjoyed my stay here. The room was clean but a bit small. Not bad though. The restaurant next door is very good. The WiFi is the only thing I had an issue with. It was sketchy at best. It was a bit noisy at night but quieted down after midnight. I definitely recommend this hotel.

Hotel Colonial is not a luxury resort, but it is more than adequate. Nice pool. Clean room. Safe and good location in Playa del Carmen. Programable room safe. Friendly staff. Restaurants and entertainment close . Beach is only a short walk away. Not far from ADO bus station.

We had a lovely time staying at Hotel Colonial in PDC! The staff was friendly and helpful, always willing to suggest activities or call a taxi when we needed it. They also speak English and Spanish for those who may not be as familiar with Spanish. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and clean, exactly what we needed to come back to after long days of activities. We also spent a good amount of time by the pool which was just perfect! The area around the hotel felt very safe and was only a short walk from the beach and Quinta Avenida so we walked pretty much everywhere! If you are looking for a good local restaurant to try, we frequently stopped by Muelle de Chema right next door - the food is delicious and the staff are very kind and friendly. Overall, a fantastic experience!! I would recommend this Hotel Colonial to anyone!!!

My stay was for only 2 days. You have to go to the front desk to ask for shampoo because they don’t put it in the room. The staff is very friendly but have very limited English, but they try to help.

People don't respect others at bedtime, are talking so loud by the pool at late hours. also, you need to mention that the parking is around the corner and the administration desk is open late.

Just left Hotel Colonial after a 7 night stay. Everyone at the hotel from the people that worked behind the desk, to the Security Guard (Abraham), to the maids, all were so friendly and helpful and all treated me like a VIP (which I'm not!) Basic room, but a king sized bed, refrigerator, a/c, great water pressure, room safe, and tv. I couldn't find any English speaking channels, but I wasn't there to watch tv, so really not an issue. Food carts right around the corner on Calle 2. Fifth Avenue 3 blocks away. El Fogon, on Avenida 30 a 5 minute walk. Walmart & Mega app a 10-12 walk (max). I didn't use the pool, but it was very big and right behind the lobby, looked great. No elevators, but I was only 1 floor up so no issues for me. I would stay at Hotel Colonisl again without hesitation.

We were a little nervous booking a hotel for 2 weeks without seeing it...but it turned out great. We stayed in a room with a patio door that opened into a courtyard surrounded by 7 other rooms. That meant natural light and fresh air, two really improtant things for me in a hotel room! The room had a good closet, a safe (we didn't use it) and a mini fridge. It was leaking the first day we plugged it in, maintenance came by and put a towel behind it... problem solved LOL. We had a king bed, a table for 2 with 2 chairs. Just what we needed for the in room meals when were were taking a break from eating out. The bed had a bottom, sheet, a top sheet and a light blanket. In September we didn't need it! The air conditioner worked well (even though I only turned it on sporadically to cool down the room). The bathroom had a tub, not very often do I see that! The "rain shower head" was in the middle of the tub so lots of room for hubby and I to shower together :) NOTE- as a woman with long hair I HATE these showers. There is never enough pressure. We had a problem the first day with a bit of a water leadk out of the pipe coming out of the roof to the shower, maintenace came and "patched" it. By the end of our 2 weeks there, the slow leak peeled the paint away on the roof around the shower head. A water cooler to fill our own bottles WIN! Really nice front desk staff WIN! Restaurant right next door with GREAT prices and variety WIN! Tienda across the street selling ICE WIN WIN!
