Kasa Kiwi Hostel & Travel Agency

Kasa Kiwi is Quetzaltenango's newest hostel! Classic hostel in the historic center with 5 private rooms, 3 dorm rooms and No Bunk Beds! We are super central (2 blocks from Parque Central), super safe (lockers in all dorms), super friendly, and super clean (communal bathrooms cleaned 2x per day). We have a lovely patio surrounded by plants and flowers and a roof terrace with craft beer and wine bar with 360 views of the city and surrounding mountains.

Good for party, not so good for quiet early night!

Kasa Kiwi is a cool hostel with friendly staff and a great rooftop terrace, located only a few minutes’ walk from the central square of Xela. As the rooftop terrace is also a bar/ hangout spot, it got very noisy when we were there (on a Tuesday night), so it wasn’t ideal for us as we had to wake up early the next day for a hike. There are only 2 toilets for everyone to share and they’re on the ground floor, so not ideal if you need a wee in the middle of the night! Otherwise the room was comfortable.

I was there to reserve and pay 2 rooms for family that was attending a family party. I choose 2 rooms with king size bed , one of them with an xtra twin bed. The rooms were spacious, the bathroom too and well equipped. . The only downside was that it has 4 floors with no elevator. But the facilities are nice, this is a hotel to travel on a acceptable budget. It has a small restaurant, but is located just across La Pradera Mall with plenty of restaurants for all the wallets . The personnel were very nice and helpful with my last minute accomodations. They even waived and extra charge for the additional twin bed that I request last minute when I already paid for the 2 rooms. That was very nice of them. I highly recommend this hotel.

I stayed here for four nights whilst doing some hiking around Xela. The location is perfect, just a couple of minutes walk from the main square, bars and restaurants. It’s very quiet which is lovely and the rooms are comfortable and practical. Plenty of space for my things. There was a small TV in the room and excellent WiFi. Everything was spotlessly clean and the kitchen is very well equipped. Microwave, kettle, free drinking water, oven, fridge, etc. As I was making sandwiches to eat whilst hiking the lady placed name labels in the fridge to identify my things. Excellent and well recommended choice.

Loud, cramped, dirty

Reviewed By Lgbrick

This hotel has an excellent location and price which may sway you to select it for your visit to Xela. The hotel itself is terrible. The rooms are comically small (I had to turn sideways to get around the bed), there is near-constant noise that kept me up at night (and I am a very heavy sleeper), and the rooms were not kept clean.

Hotel Hamilton

Hotel Hamilton a place to stay and feel at home, located in the historical center of the city of Quetzaltenango. It has the following services: • Single and double rooms. • Private bathroom with hot water. • TV with cable service. • Wireless Internet. • Convenient parking. • Garden. • Centrally located and close to the main tourist attractions of Quetzaltenango.

Basic, clean hotel with secure parking

Reviewed By tsmada

The Hamilton's rooms are small and clean. Our room had a table with chair in the entry; that was the only chair in the room. There is no closet, only hooks on the wall. I understood it is a budget hotel so a comfortable bed, secure parking, hot water, and WiFi were the only requirements. LIght sleepers should be aware that barking dogs may be a problem. My complaint is this: I reserved a room for one person but my Guatemalan goddaughter accompanied me. I fully expected an increase in the rate, which was $24.40 for the night for one person. That is 170 Guatemalan Quetzales. When I checked in I asked what the increase would be but the young man couldn't tell me (this was all in Spanish). I asked later and got the same answer. When I checked out the next morning, the owner told me the additional charge would be 388 Quetzales--or $55.00--more than double the price for one person. I protested and she reduced the charge to Q308 or US$44.00. I should have done the math but we were running late and I needed to get on the road. Result: I will NEVER stay here again and I cannot recommend this hotel. As the Spanish expression goes, this was a "robo sin pistola"--a robbery without a gun. As a comparison, the next night I stayed at a hotel in Guatemala City for which I pre-paid $58. The additional person was $20.00, a perfectly reasonable additional charge.

AMAZING, best place to stay in Xela!!

Reviewed By R3346RTjasminew

This is the best hostel in Xela, everyone recommends it on the local pages and it deserves it! I have stayed many times during my travels in Guatemala (everyone seems to come back!) and its like coming home. The incredible staff go above and beyond, are super friendly, its very clean and with the hottest shower ive had in Guate! They help you with everything you need here. Its beautiful, tranquil and with the comfiest beds ever. Its also in a perfect location to reach all the tourist attractions and surrounded by restaurants, markets, bars etc. But inside the hostel is an oasis of calm as well. With great WiFi if you need to work.
