To most restaurants it's a bit far to walk. But I guess that's more to the way Paramaribo is constructed.

The apartment is very cozy and is a great place to rest from exploring Paramaribo in the warm weather. The hosts Sanja and Gordon are very friendly and helpful!

The only downsides we encountered were the lack of soap and shampoo in the rooms, which would have been a helpful basic amenity, and the surrounding area, which wasn’t the most scenic or inviting. However, these were relatively minor points compared to the overall quality of the stay.

Our stay at Couleur Suriname was a truly pleasant experience. From the moment we arrived—despite it being quite late—our host Gorden gave us a warm welcome and even provided us with delicious local banana and cassava chips, which was such a thoughtful touch. The rooms were absolutely stunning—beautifully furnished and well thought out. The entire property exceeded our expectations and had a stylish yet comfortable vibe. Everything felt well-maintained and tastefully decorated, making it easy to feel right at home.

Not their fault, but this part of Costerstraat really seems to accumulate water when it rains heavily. It recedes after a while. But getting there on foot when it's flooded might mean getting your feet wet. If you're on a ride though, the driver can pull over close enough so that you can hop into the premises safe and dry. Also, the staircases are no joke. It can be a challenge if carrying a lot of luggage (travel light!). But the 360 window view from the top makes the heavy climbing worth it. Plus it's good workout! The place is awesome, I'd definitely book again

- Clean and stylish; - amazingly located; - courtesy snacks and drinks upon check in; - flexible and responsive staff (shout out to Gordon for being so kind to store our luggage even before we checked in. He really went the extra mile to accommodate our ask. Also Sanja super kind and approachableim during all comms); - good kitchen facilities in the room we stayed. Portable stove top enables to cook decently; - super ultra clean, great facilities. Spacious enough for one to wander about indoors. I would move there!

Gordon, who welcomed us at check-in, is a very friendly and welcoming host, easy to reach by WhatsApp, and is always willing to help out. Prior to arrival we could reach the property easily through the booking app (thanks Sanja). The apartment was recently renovated in colonial style and decorated with an eye for detail (fresh flowers). It is surrounded by a lovely garden (a grietjebie was our alarm clock). When settling into our apartment we found locally squashed juices, banana crisps, and fresh buns and pastries in the kitchenette. The kitchenette is well equipped with a microwave, pots and pans, and enough crockery and cutlery. Saoenah market, Saturday market @ Tourtonnelaan and historic center are all on cycling distance (max 10 min). A hidden gem in the center of Paramaribo.

My 17 year old daughter and I stayed for 3 separate, individual nights between 3 tours we took. The room was clean and comfortable and in a location that is easy to explore from. I can’t say enough about how kind and helpful Gordon was. We count him as one of the primary reasons why our trip was as successful as it was. He really went above and beyond to take care of us.

When it rains, the road in front of the property floods. Of course this is not the fault of the property but of the government but still something to be considered by travelers.

A very nice property with lots of green plants growing around.

It rained a lot during our stay and the street where the hotel was got extremely flooded. We had a car but still crossing it to get to the room was scary when the water came up to my knees. It wasn't the hotel's fault obviously, but that was the only negative thing that happened during our stay.

I loved the plantation-style design and the small, intimate scale of the property. There was everything you'd need in the room, even snacks and pastries and juices that all came included in the room. Gordon who runs the place was very communicative and helpful. I also loved being able to look out of my room and see verdant greenery. The location was relatively good, as we could walk everywhere in Paramaribo from there.

Great location, the house is beautiful and the studio has all the amenities to cook, the room is very spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. The host was very helpful and easy to communicate with. The bikes are such a nice touch to be able to cycle around the old Town. I would definitely recommend staying in this unique location !

Surprisingly it is not yet marked on google maps

Beautiful space in Central Paramaribo, spacious, quiet, good wifi, good aircon, friendly host, well-equipped kitchen. Walking distance to good restaurants. Bikes provided to go round town were a great bonus and welcome snacks were excellent, too. The property also helped to arrange a transfer from the airport.

Gordon, Sanja and Kenneth made our trip to Suriname an incredible experience.. They are ver,y helpful, provide information before the trip as well as during the stay. The room is very clean, the bed is comfortable. There is a good supermarketl within a walking distance and a new Chinese snack bar just round the corner.serving excellent wonton. Couleur locale is the best accommodation in Paramaribo.
