Travelogue: Hostal Monte Cristi - Managua, Nicaragua


Going to different places is always fun. It's not just a hobby that you look forward to sometimes. Doing it will gain us a priceless experience that no one could ever take it away from you. It's something that helps us become a better person by learning different cultures from different countries. Seeing the way of life of other people will make us realize that life is really precious. It is short that we should live it to the fullest. It's not something we take for granted. It is valuable that we are entitled to make it meaningful in any way possible; and traveling is just one of the many possible ways.

I'm so excited to share with you guys today a simple but unique hotel that is owned by two of my friends. Come and take a look!

Hostal Monte Cristi is located at the heart of Nicaragua (Managua). It is a brand new hostal owned by my friends Calvin Wong and Marnelli Hernandez, and is less than 1 km away from the Augusto C. Sandino International Airport. The location is so ideal that it is equipped with a 24-hour security and you can find a lot of things you need in the neighborhood alone like food through restaurants, a pharmacy, and drinks through bars. Yet, they offer a free airport shuttle service for all their guests that will make your arrival at ease.

I took some photos around the place during my stay there so you can see a lot of things that this unique hostal has. Here they are:

They have a landscaped mini garden where you can sit down and chat for a while.

The color of the hostal is so cool that it actually matches the colors of the flag of Nicaragua. They put a touch of red to it to make it stand out more.

The cleanliness of this place alone is a standout. I cannot even tell you how organized things are during my stay. 

A glimpse of their Menu board.

They also sell locally-made products great for souvenirs or as gifts to your loved ones.

In this photo is their latest ranking on Booking.com website and a handy map posted exclusively for guests to see where they can go in Nicaragua for tours, sightseeing, and gain experiences through different travel activities offered by many tourist spots. You can also ask them to tour you for a fee depending on where you want to go.

A spot for doing your exercise whenever you want. So cool!

The van they use for their airport shuttle service- spacious enough to carry many guests.

They also have a public bathroom.

This ATV can be used by guests whenever they want.

Stairs specifically made for guests staying in the rooms at the left side of the hostal.

Also, stairs specifically made for guests staying in the rooms at the right side of the hostal.

It's so nice to see they also have stair signs.

Look what we have here- Monti! He is the dog of the owners that you can play with around the hotel. He is huge but friendly.

One more great thing is that this hostal has a free Wi-fi!

Another area that you can sit and chat.

View from the second floor.

First floor dining area. Also, they have an open kitchen where you can cook freely whatever you want. They also have a microwave and refrigerator available for use. Yet, they also offer free distilled drinking water. How nice is that!


Maybe you're wondering why I didn't share any photos of the rooms. They are fully-booked the time I went there so I wasn't able to do that. But don't worry! Good thing is, they have a website that is available 24/7 where you can see other amenities and services they offer! You can visit them at www.hostalmontecristi.com and you can also follow them on Instagram @hostalmontecristi


And that's it for now! If you ever visit Nicaragua, I definitely recommend this place! Not only that they are my friends and for the lovely services they offer, but also the kindness alone that they show you is priceless. If you have any questions, feel free to ask it below this blog post or send me an email and I'll be happy to help. Go and have no regrets!
