Colonial charm meets elegance in the heart of Trinidad

In the heart of Trinidad’s UNESCO-listed old town, Mansion Alameda quietly anchors a corner of the city’s colonial soul. A 19th-century grande dame turned boutique retreat, it balances elegance and ease: hand-painted tiles, carved woodwork, soaring ceilings — all gently updated with rain showers and plush mattresses.

Just ten keys unlock the place: cool Deluxe Rooms with shuttered windows, airy Junior Suites edged by Juliette balconies, and the show-stopping Sunset Suite, whose private terrace catches the last gold glow over terracotta rooftops. Everywhere you look, period antiques share space with sleek linen, polished hardwood and a touch of Cuban colour — enough charm to slow your pulse on sight.
