Historic building in the heart of old-town!

Great experience in the heart of old-town! Friendly place, and quiet location on a small side street. Shower was a bit cramped but worked fine.

El Beaterio is my Go-To hotel whenever i stay in Zona colonial. Centrally located, walk to all the main attractions in the Old town: upscale restaurant literally in the same block! Tons of other dining options, bars, nice park where locals gather in the evening right across the street. Receptionist Pierre is super friendly and nice! Shows you everything, makes sure you know where everything is, what hours breakfast is etc. Hotel itself is such a historical jewel! You feel like you enter the Time Machine: lobby, breakfast area, staircase and room itself! I’m a history buff, so i also love how they have pictures everywhere and a little history written about the old times! The only thing I’d mention is to be careful when walking up to the second floor, it’s a bit slipper on top when it rains. Maybe owners will see this review and put a rubber mat or something else there as i almost slipped and fall, especially in the evening coming back after a few drinks :) Otherwise, don’t think twice and book this hotel because you won’t find better value in the area for your money!

Beautiful building but disappointed with stay.

Beautiful colonial property in the city center. Quiet location, good for a couple of nights. We like staying at these small boutique style hotels, as the staff tends to interact with the guests. They ask they typical questions, where we are from, what are our plans for the day, make recommendations, etc... That never happened here. Staff did their job, but they were cold. They did their best to answer any questions we may have had, but did not engage otherwise.

El Beaterio is charming property and the staff are very friendly. The location is safe and walkable to many restaurants, which is good because on-site dining is not available beyond breakfast. As other reviewers have said, the breakfast is really lacking. I have never been to a hotel that has so few options at breakfast. Unfortunately during my stay they ran out of pineapple several times because two guests took the entirety of that day's pineapple allowance for themselves. I did see another guest complain and the kitchen staff couldn't do anything about it. This is something management should review, as the lack of options at breakfast is a trend among feedback. The only beverage options at breakfast are juice (if they have it) and coffee. The kitchen staff are perfectly lovely and making the best of the limited options management has given them. The rooms are comfortable, though not ideal if you're keen on having a lot of natural light. I did like that I didn't have to use the AC in the 30C heat as the rooms keep cool. The shower had good water pressure and enough hot water for me to use. The hotel is very safe and you have to buzz to be let on the property, which added an extra layer of security. I appreciated that. Communication in arranging an airport transfer prior to my stay was excellent. Overall, I would recommend this to someone who doesn't need a pool or many options at breakfast and appreciates having security and a good location while in SD.
