Last minute booking due to a flight cancellation. We were pleasantly surprised. Communal spaces and rooms very nicely decorated and spacious. Staff is very friendly and helped with our late check in. We didn’t get to arrange breakfast but would have been a nice touch. Only complaint is the area is a bit sketchy if checking in at night.

The property is beautiful in the historical area of Curacao. The host greeted us at the door with cold water. We were pleasantly upgraded to a larger room with a balcony. Each floor, including our room, had an espresso machine including coffee and tea. The fixtures and furniture were all new and the rooms were spotless; lots of interesting vintage decorations. The property is a short walk (10 mins) to Puna/swing bridge; there are plenty of restaurants on both sides of the water. Would highly recommend others to stay.

Super friendly staff! They reached out prior to check, greeted us upon our arrival and often went above and beyond to ensure our stay was pleasent right up until our departure. They gave us great advise for our stay with restaurant recommendations and information about what was happening in town during our stay. The property was spotless and beautiful. If i could give them 6 stars I would.

This place is immaculate.  Well maintained by the staff as well as the owner. Free street parking was not a problem on a November. Not sure though how things are during the peak summer season.  Location is excellent, there's a local grocery store close by and the hotel is less than 10-minute walk from the downtown tourist area. There are well equipped shared kitchens in every floor and coffee is always available. Highly recommend.

Our stay at the newly renovated Drift Hotel has been surprisingly pleasant. So glad we gave it a try instead of staying in a resort. Location is super convenient, with supermarket and a few restaurants nearby. It is very close to the Hulanda Village and about 15 minute walk to the Queen Emma Bridge. Each floor has a modern shared kitchen, fully equiped with dishwasher, induction cooktop, fridge and an oven. Cutlery, dishes, utensils all provided. Staff were all very friendly and meticulous. Our only challenge was reaching the hotel staff on our arrival, as the complex is completely gated. We were told a doorbell will be installed out front in due course. We used WhatsApp to communicate with the hotel. No problem parking on the street in front of the hotel

I absolutely loved my stay here. The building's renovation was done beautifully, managing to achieve a modern aesthetic without losing its old-world charm. Every corner of the interior was thoughtfully considered, showing a great eye for taste and detail. The shared spaces were a highlight, offering a communal kitchen, a dinner table, and a fridge, which made the stay feel incredibly comfortable and convenient. Having a dedicated desk in the room made working a breeze, and the ability to simply walk across the street for breakfast was a perfect start to the day. The small pool was also a welcome addition, providing the perfect spot to cool off and take a break from the August heat. Overall, it was a truly wonderful experience. I want to thank the crew for being so hospitable and friendly this truly made the stay extra great. Thank you. See you soon!

Nossa estadia no Drift Hotel foi simplesmente maravilhosa! Escolhemos o hotel para celebrar antecipadamente nossos 30 anos de casamento, e não poderíamos ter feito escolha melhor. Ficamos hospedados por sete dias em abril e fomos extremamente bem recebidos desde o início. A equipe é excepcional: todos muito atenciosos, prestativos e cuidadosos em cada detalhe. O hotel é muito limpo, organizado e acolhedor. O café da manhã é muito bom, e a localização é excelente — perto de Willemstad, com fácil acesso a pé. Em apenas 5 a 10 minutos chegávamos à ponte Emma e a vários pontos turísticos. Um gesto que nos marcou muito foi o carinho da equipe ao nos presentear com uma garrafa de champanhe para celebrar nossos 30 anos de casamento. Foi realmente especial e inesquecível. Foram dias incríveis, cheios de boas memórias. Estão todos de parabéns! Com certeza voltaríamos.

As instalações são novas, cada andar tem uma cozinha compartilhada completa, com máquina de lavar louça e geladeira grande. Eles também deixam à disposição a máquina de lavar roupa, o hóspede só precisa comprar sabão. Como o hotel é em uma casa antiga reformada, não tem elevador.

El hotel estaba muy bien en línea generales sólo que en realidad no se puede considerar hotel porque no tiene recepción. Sería más bien un guest house boutique en realidad ! El desayuno muy completo se sirve en una cafetería a treinta metros más o menos. No es recomendable para personas con deficiencia para subir escaleras ya que son muy empinadas y muchos escalones. No cuenta con ascensor. El baño está muy bien pero se escapa agua de la ducha y moja todo el piso del baño. El personal muy amable y atencioso. Cuenta con una kisinette bien equipada en cada piso.
