Lock in a great price for Posada El Viajero - rated 8.8 by recent guests.

to get started.

Great location. Great staff. Chose premium room which appeared to include balcony, fridge, kettle, wine, water and chocolates but found on arrival that the wine, water and chocs were all chargeable extras. Very misleading and disappointing.

Great location short walk along sea front from the bus and boat stations and short walk to historical center of Colonia. Our room on the 3rd floor faced the sea and had a little balcony. Breakfast was very good. Staff helpful.

“Very mixed review”

If you are not a sound sleeper, and are looking for a quiet stay, this might not be your place. The building acts as an ampifier for every little sound inside, which made it difficult to get to sleep at night. If you are in room #5, you will likely hear the man who 'works' the night shift snoring all night. The location is on a dead end street, which we wrongly thought would make for a nice quiet stay. This was not the case. Tour buses use this street as a drop-off/pick-up point, and local highschool kids use it as their after hours party spot well into the morning on the weekends.
Beautiful building, wonderful staff, besides the man working the night shift. Amazing rooftop terrace. Excellent breakfast! Great proximity to old town Colonia.
