Absolutely beautiful boutique hotel. I loved everything about it. Very conveniently located to everything. Very Walkable to all major restaurants cafes and landmarks.
The only thing I would suggest is a coffee machine in the rooms for those who love there coffee early in the morning like me.
Rooms were clean and bed was comfortable. The dining was amazing. I have to say I miss the meals that were on the menu. The staff was super friendly and always attentive. We will definitely stay there again.
We had a wonderful Time - hotel is very stylish and comfortable and the staff are fantastic - friendly and charming. The food in the restaurant was extremely good too for breakfast and dinner with local ingredients and all with the chefs little twist on things. I look forward to returning
Super cute hotel, excellent location and fantastic service. The food was also amazing. I will keep very good memories of this place and when I come back to San Cristobal I will definitely stay here.
This hotel is beautiful. It has a rustic look with plants everywhere. One of our favorite breakfast was located on site Tarumba. Best location to all tourist sites.
The team at Sombra del Agua went above and beyond to make our recent trip a truly unforgettable experience. Not only did they provide exceptional accommodations and service at their beautiful hotel, but they also facilitated a fabulous dinner for our large group. The beds were very comfortable and the location is perfect. The hotel used to be an old home, so there isn’t the best insulation. They have a sister hotel that has more updated rooms and a spa & gym. Both restaurants are amazing.
Great stay in one of the suites, which was huge and had a fabulous terrace. Staff amazingly helpful and friendly. Short walk to the pedestrian street going through town, but not too noisy. Great restaurant in the hotel.

Very good hotel!
This is a really good hotel. The staff is lovely and very helpful. Rooms are comfortable and very clean. We had a challenge working the tv and the safe in the room didn’t work, but in spite of that we would stay here again. The restaurant in the hotel is excellent!
We just got back from our trip this hotel has very friendly staff everyone greets you. The rooms are clean and hot water 👍 for showers. Walking distance to many places. The food was amazing.
Beautiful hotel with excellent food. The courtyard is a lovely place to have breakfast in the morning or dinner at night, when they light a fire creating a great ambience. Staff were great. Very good central location but the hotel itself is really calm and tranquil. Really nice toiletries provided. Excellent value for money.
