There were bedbugs we could immediately see when we checked in. Based on the language barrier I could not get a refund on 2 nights paid (240USD). Of course I reached out to expedia for a refund. Due to the language barrier, customer service could not get a n immediate answer.
The hotel is very pretty and the pictures show that. But it's several blocks away from the main square which means walking over the rocky streets which we did several times a day - or renting a taxi or tut tut.
The morning breakfast was nice with coffee so you don't have to travel.
The beds were not too comfortable and I would give it an overall 6 out of 10.
Basic hotel with pretty colonial flourishes. The central patio is exceptionally beautiful--too bad you can't sleep there in a hammock. Hotel breakfast is nothing to write home about--best part is the coffee, orange juice and Bundt cake. Be sure to take a shower very early in the morning as hot water is not dependable. No hotel restaurant or bar or pool. About 5 blocks from the main plaza.
The staff were very accommodating to our travel arrival restrictions. They helped us with arranging transportation to and from international airport.
Room was clean, property was beautiful, the breakfast on offer was filling and tasty.
The property is clean, beautiful and well kept. The staff are attentive, though communication was a slight challenge with my poor spanish speaking ability. Overall really nice people there though and we made it work. Its a little bit of a walk to the town center--about 15 minutes, but this made the property really quiet, which was nice. Having AC was a huge plus. And the garden was really gorgeous. Breakfast was included and was very good. It has a rooftop but no real hangout area up there. Still cool to be able to view the city though. The front desk arranged a safe ride to the airport for a reasonable price--about $35 USD. Would recommend
This hotel is amazing! It’s only a 10-15 minute walk from the main plaza. The area is nice and quiet. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and the price is a lot cheaper than staying closer to the plaza. The courtyard is stunningly beautiful with all the plants and flowers. I have never seen anything like it. The rooms are very spacious and clean. There is a rooftop where you get a beautiful view of the city and the volcanoes. Don’t think about it twice and book it!
Service from this property is top notch. Staff is so friendly and kind. Free breakfast is included. I was able to check in early and they held my luggage after check out and allowed me to stay on the property until my shuttle came later in the day. Internet was extremely slow in my room. The area can also be a little sketchy. I was ok leaving the hotel during the day when it was light out but I wouldn’t feel comfortable walking in that area at night. It’s about a 15-20 minute walk to the Central square park.
First off, the property is absolutely beautiful. However, there is nothing at this hotel. No restaurant or bar. Breakfast was ok but you only have the choice of one thing. It is about a half mile to the town, but on those streets it seems farther. There is nothing (but a sourdough baker which was good) around. This wasn't the only hotel I stayed at in Antigua so I can compare and there was no comparison. I had to ask to have my trash taken out (which is awful when you cannot flush toilet paper in the toilet). I also had to request for a clean towel and when I asked for a glass of ice the person acted really put out. The saving grace was Caesar, the front desk clerk, who helped us when needed. Sorry, I wanted to love this place.
