I booked the Colosseum Guesthouse because of the location and the good reviews. My already high expectations were exceeded. There was always easy parking for my rental car, and the area's vibe was friendly and safe. The shops, bars, and restaurants of Port Zantes are in easy walking distance. The Colosseum gave me a quality hotel experience. The room and bathroom were super clean and well-equipped. The hotel's owner Homer is available around the clock and takes care of every detail. There is no question that I will return to the Colosseum for my next travel to St. Kitts.

Room was clean on arrival. 5 min walk to Port Zante was a plus. Beds comfortable, no issues with hot water. Staff and owner are very welcoming. The room has a fridge, but there is microwave and electric kettle in the hall. If you have heavy luggage do remember you need to lift to get up the stairs as the guest house is on the first floor. Only issue was the direlect property next door which was an eyesore.

NO ROOM SERVICE FOR A 3 NIGHT STAY. NO STAFF PRESENT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT ANYTHING.On arrival they first told us we have no booking there until I saw the manager. I will never recommend this place for anyone. We heard confrontational arguments between the manager and guests who were turned away because of overbooking.

Clean, low cost hotel by the port.

The hotel was clean and comfortable. It is above a convenient store that the owner leases out. It is a five minute walk to all the shopping and restaurants where the cruise ships come in. There is a food court with a bar in the center of it and it had a DJ on Friday evening. The port is one block away if you want to get to another island. It was a bit hectic and dirty at the port but no hassles. Homer is the hotel manager and owner. Just ask him if you need anything. He was helpful and well connected. He gave me a low cost shuttle (prearranged)to the airport since it would have been hard to get a taxi that early in the morning. The price was low and well worth the stay. Currently they only had seven rooms but are adding on another twenty some rooms. I would stay there again.

Horrible- DO NOT STAY HERE, EVER! I booked via Expedia for 5 days/4 nights. Stayed here once before with no issue, but this time, on day 3, this small family run hotel owner said he had overbooked for my final night for a large party who was taking the entire hotel (small). In other words, I am making more money by a full rental than by you or the other room with American guests in it. Oddly enough, the Expedia site still showed 2 room available for that night. He said he booked me at a nearby hotel already. He never asked me. The hotel he booked me for was awful, terrible neighborhood with huge safety concerns and zero parking. I explained I’d book my own hotel and had to spend a portion of my vacation time researching for a new hotel for 1 night on a Friday night. Wasted my time. He gave me back cash for the last night, but no compensation for causing anxiety and disruptions to my plans or vacation. I called Expedia to report the situation. The other Americans were also contacting Expedia about the same issue. At no time during this stay did my room get cleaned, no new towels, no making of the bed other than by me, no trash emptied. Toilet paper ran out and was not refilled. I would NEVER recommend this site. Do not stay here. Zero stars, would never recommend. Just don’t do it.

This hotel is very centrally located in Basterre, a very walkable distance from the ferry terminal, shops, and downtown. There is a grocery store located downstairs (the property is a walk up stairs). I had a great stay and would recommend this property to friends.

OMG. so i would totally recommend you not stay here. Firstly, the stairs leading up to the second level are unsafe and kept dirty and fill with construction residue (i.e concrete chips and debris). front reception area, had no one there just a key laid out on the counter which i assumed was mine since i made my appointment the night before. my room was super small and when it rained i was slushing threw at least a 1/2” of water in the bathroom leaking from the light fixture. water was seeping in from the window sills and my early morning was spent mopping with a dingy mop found in the corner of the floor. frustrated and extremely tired from mopping for at least one hour. i was finally switched to the “dryer” side of the building at 11AM- flooding happened at 4AM. Then there’s the noise-yes, the noise- that starts it seems right at 7Am. it is unrelenting. the construction, i was told, will take 5-10 years. so you will have to deal with all this madness till then. i really have no idea why expedia would have such a work in progress on its site. the basis amenities was putrid at most. Ants marched to there own dump around the fridge and desk area in the room and ran single file on the make-shift scaffolding leading to the second floor. finally there’s the Odor, not sure if it’s from the wet wood, mountain or sewer runoff’s the line the street an curbs in the bay or a combination but don’t open your windows for the stench is unbearable.
