Budget Hotels in Guatemala

"First and foremost, the staff at El Carmen are wonderful, especially Arnold who took care of us from arrival to departure and the staff at breakfast. Our room was lovely, well-appointed and had a fantastic hot shower. We loved having lunch in the courtyard and breakfast on the terrace. The food was really good and well-priced. After 6 weeks in Guatemala, we can say this was our favorite hotel experience."

"Love the hotel "

"Great Breakfast Buffet. The hotel is in the entrance of Antigua, so it´s about 4,000 steps from the Cathedral and the park (where restaurants and coffe shops are). Nice rooms (clean, TV, bathtub, etc). The Hotel has abot 3 museums inside. This hotel was build on a ancient catholic convent where monks and priests lived their religious life. There are catacombs with the remains of the people that lived there. Trully, the only real 5 star hotel in Central America."

"Beautiful hotel with very comfortable rooms. About 4 blocks from the main square in Antigua. On site restaurant was excellent with very attentive service."

"Excellent place and great breakfast! "

"Muy buena atención la comida 10 de 10"

"Hands down one of the most beautiful hotels I have every stayed at. The grounds are exceptionally well kept, the staff are super helpful and friendly, and the views are one of a kind. The steps to climb are steep but there are many staff available to help you carry your luggage. The room was small but it didn't matter because we much preferred to spend our time exploring the property. The dinner was delicious and we also loved swimming in the lake. I cannot preface enough that this hotel is a MUST stay when visiting Lake Atitlan, even if just for one night. "

"The hotel is top-notch, the staff are attentive, only the front desk staff lack a bit of empathy upon arrival"

"Be careful what you book here. The hotel is currently undergoing renovations and our room was directly across from an active construction site with hammering and sawing noises coming through the walls all afternoon. We also had no exterior windows, only a window into the interior hallway / courtyard so we had to keep the blinds closed the whole time. It is very conveniently located for the airport but because of this you also hear planes landing overhead all night, so definitely pack ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. "
