Irma (the lady owner) is so friendly & helpful. The hotel is pretty close to the Parque Central, but not too close to loud clubs, so it\'s very quiet at night.

The hotel is pretty close to the Parque Central, but not too close to loud clubs, so it\'s very quiet at night. Also, the street which this street is on is very well lit (as opposed to some of the streets in Antigua), so you\'d probably feel safe also.close

Antigua was a cool place to stay for a couple days, and I definitely could've stayed longer. It's beautful, with it's colonial architecture and ginormous volcanoes surrounding the city.

It's beautful, with it's colonial architecture and ginormous volcanoes surrounding the city. If you visit, you've got to do the escorted walk to the cross. They're at 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM from the tourist police office, and you've also got to do an excursion to Volcan Pacaya.close

A great place to stay, if flying to Guatemala, just get first bus out of town to Antigua, we only had 2 days there, could have stayed much longer. Visit to Pacayo Volcano is a must (about 90 mins away) Lake Atitlan can also be done in a day trip, but would only leave about 3-4 hours at lake....more A great place to stay, if flying to Guatemala, just get first bus out of town to Antigua, we only had 2 days there, could have stayed much longer.

Wish I was back there now and not in San Jose.close

    Irma is the best! She takes care of you; she is always lovely and helpful. I took the single room which was quite expensive but it had a TV in it (with few English channels).

Top Rated Antigua Attractions

  1. Vulcan Pacaya80%      

    Forget health and safety, you will be proding fresh lava with sticks on this tour! Organised with the tour agency in the Yellow House, and was a quality half day out with 2 good guides. Half day is enough though, and the walk up needs a proper pair of shoes! But worth seeing!
