Some furnishings need updating, and I found the bed too hard for my comfort

The hotel is well-located to reach all the main sites of Williamstrad, and through its promotion, sits within a colourful neighbourhood of painted properties and well-constructed street art. The hotel exactly matches the vibes of the town - bright, cheerful, lively and yet remains an ideal place for couples to stay. The attached street court offers an easy restaurant option and features live music on select nights. Although some of the facilities need a refurbishment, the staff were universally friendly and helpful. I enjoyed my stay as a 60-year-old blind independent traveller.

Nothing.

Lovely and colorful boutique hotel with spacious and comfortable rooms. It has a nice outside area to enjoy with shade and a pool and lots of art. We really liked the location very near by the Hullanda Village (highly recommended) and the Koningin Emmabrug. The personnel was very friendly and super helpful. We only had breakfast at the restaurant which was very good, but it also offered lunch and dinner. Otrobanda is a very nice area with a lot of street art (just around the corner of the hotel).

Nothing!

Great location in a charming area in Otrobanda in the centre of Willemstad. Boutique hotel with large rooms and bathroom! Outside garden with swimming pool and lovely people working for Hotel Bario. The hotel organised a BBQ evening with music and delicious food and salsa lessons. Free big parking space and good beds. Feels like coming home! We will come back for sure!

There were some issues on arrival. We were accommodated in two separate rooms for the first night of our four-day stay. On the third night there was water dripping from the apartment above. Despite the hiccups we enjoyed our stay. Akeisha and Sanchez were helpful in making our stay a comfortable one. We were afforded a breakfast on the house on the second day.

The location was good. It was within walking distance to downtown.

We booked a room with 2 single beds but they gave us a double and we could not change. Thye tried to remedy the situation by adding a bed but it didnt work out as it was quite small.

The people, area, and the ease of walking to most places in the town. The food and drinks were also great.

The room was smelling a bit odd (mold). Expensive room for quality. But the location was great, ambiance amazing, and host super!

The location is amazing. Bario hotel is a super nice bubbly space with good food and perfect ambiance!

Unfortunately, the band only played 1 night at the hotel. Mostly DJ. Also if you like quiet, it may not be for you. I knew before hand so it was fine and music ended at 11 pm. However there was, unfortunately a man who was mentally challenged who did yell out during the night. It's not the the hotel fault he lives next door but I was awaken a few times by him.

The location. Close to the major bus stations, 7 minutes walk to Otrabanda station and 20 minutes to Punda station. Did not rent a car due to solo traveller. Alot of historical sites close by.

Very quaint hotel. Reminds me of a European pensione. 5 minute walk to the center of town. Very clean. Nice little pool. Lots of little nooks where you can sit. The music from the bar is a tad loud, but shuts down around 10pm.

my room was not to the expectations I saw online. bed was hard and no duvett to cover with the cold of the airconditioner. At night it was difficult to relax because of some gentleman continuously screaming right outside my bedroom window. I woukd stay here again because of the location and staff but maybe another room.

Loved the location and the staff was amazing. Nice entertainment at night.

Being a renovated historic (well mantained) building, the rooms are not soundproof. Staying on the groundfloor apptm, you could hear the above guests & kid(s) walking & running

Beautiful, colorful & well mantained place with a wonderful & relaxing ambiance. The apptm. was nicely put together & had everything one could need. The pool area was cozy, the staff was friendly & helpfull. The live music on the weekend evenings made it even greater. The surroundings were covered in beautiful art and the hotel is centrally located. Had a gr8 stay! I surely would like to come back :)

Not really a big issue but some of the furniture need to be replace or at least better maintained.

The way the staff treat us I went for my birthday celebration and received a very warm welcome and they surprised me by decorating the entrance and bedroom of our apartment with balloons.

Rooms need to be renovated. Problem with electricity. We had no air, tv, frig on our last night. Unable to contact anyone because there is no security or staff that stay on property.

The property was close to downtown and the bridge.
