About Azul Hotel & Restaurante

Azul Hotel & Restaurante is a small hotel in a colonial house in central León, two and a half blocks north of the cathedral. It has 10 rooms around a courtyard with a swimming pool, plus a restaurant and a bar. Managua's airport is about 1 hour 30 minutes away by car.

Azul occupies a colonial house in central León, on Avenida Central, two and a half blocks north of the cathedral. Its 10 rooms are arranged around an inner courtyard, and the swimming pool sits in the middle of it. Each room has air conditioning, a ceiling fan, a flat-screen TV, Wi-Fi and a private bathroom with a warm shower.

The restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The menu leans toward lighter dishes and flavors from several countries. In the evening there is a bar, so a drink by the pool needs no walk at all.

Because the cathedral and the central park are so close, León's churches, museums and cafés are a short walk away. Farther out, the Isla Juan Venado Natural Reserve is about 25 minutes by car, and the Pilas El Hoyo Volcano Natural Reserve about 40. Managua's airport is roughly 1 hour 30 minutes away by car.
