Casa Colonial Mindelo

Mindelo

Small hotel with a nice colonial ambiance.
Location is perfect nearby restaurants and the city centre. 
Breakfast is oké and served at the cosy inside pool yard. Lots of plants, the  small pool itself had better days.
When we stayed here there weren't much other guests. But I think it will be quite noisy because it is not possible to walk quietly on the old, creaking wooden floors and stairs.
Room has enough space, no airco but a fan. Room is a bit dark because of the shutters. Bathroom and the door to go inside is really tiny, good that they try to safe water. 
There is no safe and hair dryer. Lightning is low and not good for reading. Bed is too hard for our liking. Outside our room we had a kind of living room where you could sit.
At night there is a lot of noise from dogs in the neighbourhood.
Laginha beach is at about 20 minutes walking distance.

Colonial ambiance 

Nice colonial era house that has been converted to a B&B.  Rooms are all on inner courtyard with a pool.  Hotel is in a good location.  Very convenient to all attractions.  Rooms don't have air conditioning, only fans.   Had to pay in cash when checking out.

Colonial House B&B in good location.

I booked this hotel for 3 nights for more than 2 months in advance. A couple of days before we were due to arrive I received an email from the hotel stating that we could no longer stay due to some booking system mix-up. I guess something like this can happen occasionally, but the short notice and lack of customer service was a terrible experience (e.g. they didn't offer to help find alternative accommodation until I expressed my displeasure at the situation). Good luck if you book here.

The hotel cancelled our booking and followed up with terrible service

Nice place. A sort of boutique hotel.Good decor, high ceilings, good breakfast, nice staff.Could hear neighbours' house through a ventilation window, but not a big prob

The room was quite basic. The water rose quite quickly on the shower floor. So be prepared! Otherwise no issues. The hotel has strong ecological views. They also collect some waste water. The location was good! Quite steep staircase. A couple of corners away from good restaurants and bars. The staff is multilingual and very helpful. Tours and tickets are available. Also drinks and travel guidebooks are offered to purchase in the reception. Wifi is only available at public spaces. The breakfast was really good! Some 15 mins from the airport!

OK place, good location

Great place. Wonderful staff, good location and nice breakfasts.

We stayed for two nights in this little hotel with it's precious little rooms. We really liked the ambience. The staff was totally nice, charming and helpfull. The location in a small side street was central and everything in Mindelo could be reached by a short walking distance.

Nice little hotel!

Nice hostal, simple with friendly people. Staff could be a little better informed on what to do, attractions, dining/going out and rooms have no A/C (which is fine), but the fan could be stronger as well as the shower could be better designed to keep water only around the shower and not the whole bath - anyway, it is a 2.5 star classified; so you get what you pay - still, clean and great location!

Nice simple hostal with local people

Lovely little hotel located in the center of Mindelo. Close to restaurants/ cafes, shops and market, also to the port and the beach. Everything is within the walking distance. 
The rooms are quite small, courtyard rooms have no windows other than french doors into the courtyard. Court yard has a small pool and few sun loungers plus the tables. The breakfast is served in the courtyard in the morning - lovely selection of fresh yogurt, some cereals, cheese and ham, fresh bread and home made papaya jam (totally delicious). Beds are comfy and big. Generally rooms are a good size for a short stay. Staff is very friendly and helpful. There is a wifi available at the reception. 
I would definitely recommend Casa Colonial for your stay in Mindelo and would stay here again if I'll come back to Mindelo.

Perfect small base in Mindelo

Wonderful classic guest house in central Mindelo. Walking distance to everything, including the Ferry which is about 15 minutes away. Quiet location and wonderful central pool to cool off after a hot walk. Rooftop sitting area if you want to see the views.
