The hotel is very charming and is very safe to stay at. The rooftop restaurant was very nice and the food choices were very good. My only criticism is that most of the waiters and waitresses did not speak English or understood very little English. They were all very pleasant and helpful but I wish I could have spoken Spanish to them.

This property was such a let-down. The photos on line looked so cute, but upon arrival, everything was kind of old, weathred, in need of repair. Not as nice and cute as we had hoped.

I actually loved this hotel! It was beautiful on the inside. The room are charming and they are one of the only hotels with AC. The hotel is near everything and is walking distant from everywhere. I loved our stay! Would definitely come back! :)

Excelent place to stay at in Antigua Guatemala. The rooftop has a beatiful view to the mountains and volcanoes and since I went in Rainy season it was a spectacle to see the clouds covering the mountains. Just as a feedback, the Hotel offered me to pick me up at the airport when I arrived to Guatemala City, which they did and the driver Esteban was very friendly and attentive, the only thing that bothered me just a little bit is that they picked me up an hour later than the agreed time which I understand due to traffic and some other issues but the issue was that they didnt have communication with me while I waited the extra hour, until they finally showed up, but GENERALLY SPEAKING EL CARMEN IS AN EXCELLENT CHOICE TO STAY AT.
