Hotel Casa Colonial
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
An easy recommendation for travellers who want a quiet, well-rated base in El Prado at well under the city median. The main caution is the modest review count of 197, so check recent reviews before you commit.

Hotel Casa Colonial is our Best Value pick for Barranquilla. It holds 3 official stars and lists free parking, family rooms, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a garden and a terrace. Couples, families and drivers who want a calm residential street and friendly staff are the natural fit.
It is less suited to anyone who wants a full-service hotel. A restaurant, pool or gym is not listed, so if those matter, our Luxury pick is the better choice.
Location and getting around
The address is Carrera 59 # 72 - 129, Barrio el Prado. Guests describe a quiet residential setting in the historic Prado district, near restaurants and the Malecón. The location score is 9.4 out of 10.
Sinagoga Shaare Sedek is about 0.5 km away, roughly 6 minutes on foot. Queen Mary Cathedral is about 2 km, around 25 minutes. Laureano Gómez bridge is about 7.8 km, around 98 minutes, which is far, so use public transport or a taxi for that one. All times are straight-line estimates that have not been verified.
What guests say
The score is 9.0 out of 10 from 197 reviews, joint first of 9 eligible properties in our sample. Guests praise the quiet location and a friendly, attentive team that gives a warm welcome and helpful assistance.
Our data lists no recurring guest complaint. That is encouraging, but 197 reviews is a smaller base than many hotels have, so a few recent reviews can shift the picture. Read the latest comments before booking.
Price compared with our other two Barranquilla picks
The reference price seen for a 2-night stay in November 2026 (10 to 12 November, 2 adults, one room) was €43.77 a night, about €88 in total. That is 36% below the sample median of €68.18. These are reference prices, not live quotes, so check today's price for your dates.

Casa Colonial costs about €10 a night more than the Budget pick, and in return has the highest guest score of the three.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 9 eligible properties in Barranquilla. The Best Value slot balances guest score, number of reviews and reference price, and is not simply the cheapest option. Casa Colonial shares the top score in the sample, has a 9.4 location score and sits well below the median price.
