"A very nice and very new hotel located on a beautiful and lively beach. It has comfortable, clean and spacious rooms. In addition it has a restaurant about 100 meters away which serves a decent breakfast and very tasteful dishes at night. I had the delicious langostinos with the ajillo sauce, but the caribeños sauce which I also tasted was terrific as well. The very friendly and helpful owner Eduardo is a good host and he speaks English almost fluently."

Top Cristobal Hotel Reviews

La Cubana Colón

8/10 Good

"La atención del personal muy buena y amable desde el guarda de seguridad hasta el personal de limpieza y recepción lo único malo es que probablemente el detergente que usan para lavado no es muy bueno xq las toallas olían a sucio aún estando recién lavadas y habían algunas pequeñas cucarachas en el baño... pero por lo demás muy bien y recomendado como muy buena opción de hospedaje.."
