Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Terrible! the property is outdated the staff not helpful, bed sheets are old, the breakfast is limited to three choices everyday with a choice of bad coffee or and orange drink (not juice), no help in carrying luggage to rooms even though there is no elevator, things such as television or a/c or doors do not work properly, we will never stay there again unless the property is destroyed and build new again

I read the reviews and was aware there were a lot of stairs. So I wasn't surprised, but we got a 4th floor room and that first walk up really highlighted that for us. They were so accommodating immediately changing it to a second floor room to make things easier for us. They were determined to make us happy in that regard. The rooms themselves are dated, but have a island charm and beautiful view.
We want to Thank Michael and Gerald at the front desk for always being so helpful and drivers Alexi and Cooper for safe and cool transportation to a dolphin excursion and dinner at Luna Muna!
The best part about this hotel is it's very short walk to West Bay Beach where you'll find lots of food and the most beautiful beach. You can also hop on a water taxi to go elsewhere. We took a water taxi to West End for more food and shopping almost every day we were there! West Bay Divers is a 5 min walk and there are a bunch of other dive shops in the area.
I would say West Bay Colonial is a great deal for those who like a budget friendly option. If you're extremely particular about updated furnishings or the "look" of things you should probably stay at one of the pricier options
We would stay here again.

Clean, Cheap and in a good area, friendly reception, delicious breakfast, low internet.
Proper, pas cher et dens un bon quartier, reception sympathique, delicieux petit dejeuner, mauvaise connexion internet.
Limpio, barato y buena area.
Desalluno delicioso, internet lento.
Four flights of stairs with full suitcases is really hard, even with all their help. They lost a star because they didn't provide bottles of water in the rooms. When the water is not safe to drink from the sink, it is critical to provide safe water. The area was beautiful. Limited options for breakfast.
The only good things about this property is the close proximity to the beach and the friendly staff. The owner has spent no money to update the facilities. There once was an elevator, but it no longer works. It’s 81 steps to the fourth floor. There is no drinking water in the rooms ( in a country where you can’t drink the water from the tap). We were in a suite (I use the term loosely). It was two rooms with a closet in one. No chairs or stools to sit on. Had a microwave but the turntable was broken. There were no towel bars in the bathroom, only broken hooks. The soap dish in the shower fell off the wall during the night because the bracket was rusted. Linens and bedspreads need to be replaced because of tears. A “continental breakfast” but it’s questionable. We have been coming to Honduras for many years including the mainland and Roatan and have never stayed in a place with so little consideration for its customers. The management and owners need some help in hospitality management.
Very outdated..the pool is decent and it’s walking distance to the beach. Otherwise if you’re not really in the hotel and are only in there to sleep then it’s ok I guess. Pretty quiet, would have sooooo much potential if it was ran better and remodeled.

The staff were very nice and helpful. There is no bottled water or mini fridges which surprised us a little. Rooms were quiet, spacious and the bed comfortable. AC worked well
Buena ubicación, excelentes precios y mucha amabilidad

The noise from
The speaker that the staff was playing was too loud, my husband ask them if they could turn it down because he was trying to sleep in they did for like 10 minutes and started it up again.
The hotel has no elevator. This was difficult for mom of 65 to climb 81 stairs, her hip still hurts after 2 weeks.
There are a lot of bats flying around messing up the walls and stairs.
There is no one to help with your bags.
The rooms are spacious but the furniture are old and needs to be replace.
The sheets on the bed are sooo thin they can easy rip to pieces.
The reception area always has trash right at the entrance and the barroom at the reception is nasty!
