An inexpensive option. The rooms are basic but clean, have AC, and private bathroom. The complimentary breakfast each day was very good and served in a beautiful garden. The staff are lovely and will help you with whatever you need. The location was a perfect starting point for our self-guided walking tours of this excellent city. León is a gem,... More

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights. Hospitality and service were outstanding. The room was simple but stunningly clean. So quiet one would never know you were so close to the center. Staff helped us with directions and recommended some best place to visit in Leon A good opcion.

Hotel Real was a wonderful find for my stay in Leon. For an unbeatable price, I had a room with AC, private bathroom, breakfast each morning, etc. The rooms were mostly kept up and the ambiance of the courtyard and the overlook of the city from the roof made for a memorable experience in Leon. Don't get caught up in... More

Hotels in Febuary are difficult to get a number days in a row. Breakfast came with the room and was adaquate for the day. Rooms are not large but for one person all is good. For two people it would be easy to walk into each other. The hotel staff was good. I was even able to purchase a box... More

I selected this hotel for our stay in Leon based off of Trip Advisor reviews. The location was great - a few blocks from the main square. We were put off by a few issues: we had cockroaches and mouse feces in our room. Cockroaches happen, I get it, I lived in Honduras for years. Mouse poop should be easier... More

Great breakfast included...scrambled egg, pancakes and syrup, tea, juice, jam, toast etc....surrounded by the jungle ferns etc in the lovely courtyard. From the rooftop lookout we are ringed by old churches and further afield by volcanoes - especially San Cristobal sending even bigger billowing clouds of ash into the sky and blotting out the early morning sun. Rooms are bright... More

We had a wonderful stay here. Friendly staff, clean rooms, relaxed setting, nice AC, decent hot water, good breakfast, wonderful courtyard, and great rooftop terrace. We liked that there were Nicaraguans staying there, not just all westerners.

Stayed here for 3 nights towards the end of my trip in Nicaragua & really liked the place. Small cosy but comfortable room with good A/C & plenty hot water. Good breakfast (esp if you get pancakes!). Fab view from the rooftop terrace to admire the distant volcanoes or sunset. In a quiet street but a short walk from the... More

Once we’d worked out where this place was (once you’ve found it you wonder why you couldn’t find it first time!) you get transported into a really nice, friendly and relaxed little place with a nice courtyard where you get a nice simple breakfast. The room was very adequate, not amazing but certainly nothing wrong with it.
