    The building has plenty of charm with its old fireplaces and spacious rooms. We booked the large double room, as it was the same price as a regular double, and really enjoyed the extra space. The mattress felt a little lumpy and could probably do with being replaced. The WiFi was not good in the room. There’s no AC, but a fan is provided, along with drinking water in the room. The bathroom was a great size, modern, and had excellent hot water and strong water pressure. Breakfast was a typical local style, served with both coffee and juice. There was some traffic noise, but much less than expected. The location is just a few blocks from the main walking street, lined with beautiful buildings and interesting shops.

    Only drawback was street noise - but this is what you get in city centre!

    Beautiful historic house with lovely breakfast area and living room - centrally located in Zona 1. Clean, well appointed, very helpful staff. A great place to relax and exhale. We very much enjoyed our stay here. Good breakfast prepared by our hostess Fernanda. General Manager Sophie was also very helpful with booking of cars to our next destination.

    The vintage beds were squeaky and the mattresses worn out - the quality of sleep would improve a lot if they changed the old mattresses for new ones!

    Beautiful hotel in a historic building - especially nice ambiente from the inside, including a little patio to relax in after exploring Guatemala. A small but delicious breakfast is served in the morning. The center of zona 1 is within walking distance and during the day we felt safe. (Can't say anything about the safety at night as we didn't go out after dark.) The host was friendly and helpful and organized a taxi to an from the airport for us.

    Every thing was more than we imagined.

    Everything was more than expected. The room was super comfy and clean. The property which is a colonial mansion was old world meets modern expectations. The bathroom was great. with nice modern tile and shower. The staff was nice - always had a smile for us. Fernandina was very helpful. She cooks a great breakfast.

A huge thank you to Sophie, Raul and Ana. So kind, welcoming and caring.Do not be foolish enough to consider staying anywhere else if you are ever staying in the capital! You will find a home from home here in this blessed haven.

    Nothing. It’s located in zone 1 so be prepared for a city setting. Which is what we wanted.

    Love the contrast between the city street and the serenity within the large front doors. The green garden courtyard, the beautifully buffed floors and the period furniture of this beautifully maintained large home took us back in time. Our room was comfortable and spacious and the shower was nice and hot. We able to walk out the door and be part of the early Easter (Samara Santa) parade. Magical.

    This is a minor one; The school nearby was a bit loud but not in a bothersome way. Just a normal day in Guatemala City

    It's a lovely authentic house. Very clean, very neat. The staff is amazing (once again thank you for the late night pick up from the airport after delay)

    I spent only one night. If I had more time I would like to stay longer. It's an old house changed to a hotel with a lot of Charme. History furniture but very comfortable. The ladies who are working there are very friendly and helpful. I loved it!
