The 10 best Specialty lodgings in Western Highlands, Guatemala

May 19, 2023 Elouise Mccaul

Guatemala’s spectacular Western Highlands run from Antigua to the Mexican border. Pines blanket misty hillsides, rivers cascade through sliver-thin ravines, volcanoes rumble overhead. Catch market day or witness offerings to drinking, smoking St. Maximon, in Chichicastenango. See traditional life in the Ixil Triangle. Clamber the Cuchumatanes Mountains. Mayan dialects and ceremonies are still part of everyday life for the majority of Guatemala’s indigenous population, living where their ancestors trod.

Lerri Colonial

Affordable yet hard to recommend

Reviewed By ogol17

There aren't many hotel options in Xela, and this one is definitely central. However the area did not feel safe to walk in at night. The place is very affordable but the room was small, lacked basic amenities and the shower was bad.

Anzan has beautiful rooms surrounded by lush gardens. Spectacular view of Lake Atitlan and the volcanoes surrounding it. Breakfast is served lakeside and it is delicious! Conveniently located on the lake to access other villages by boat

Discreto ma può migliorare

Reviewed By mrGresys

Camere fredde. Impossibilità di pagare con carta di credito o bancomat. Wifi lento. Docce spartane. Gestione familiare, molto accoglienti e gentili. Camere piccole ma complete di tutto. Colazione tradizionale abbondante. Buona posizione a 5 minuti a piedi dal centro.

Una Noche Con Mical

Great hostel!

Reviewed By 119auroret

Me and my friends spent a couple of nights in this cosy hostel. I was very happy with what it offers! The owner was very caring and warm, the whole place, bathroom and bedrooms were very clean. I liked the fact that there is a tranquil roof overlooking buildings' roofs as well as the magical lake Atitlán. Very close to the market and in the heart of San Pedro, though very peaceful!

PanaHouse

Safe, quiet & calm place for travellers both landing and departing the Lake

Reviewed By magijedi

Beauiful terrace on the rooftop for evening drinks. Found out the creators of the local 'HoneyBee' honey wine owned the place and offered a discounted price on their brews! Clean room for the night before departing Lake Atitlan. Safe gated entry point with many cameras, and an extremely well equipped communal kitchen offered for the use of guests. Highly recommend the location of this place.. kind of a hidden gem that felt quiet and perfect for our needs. Also listed on Airbnb.

Hotel Paraiso

Отель с названием соответствующим содержанию

Reviewed By Наталья С

Это недорогой отель немного в стороне от центра, на тихой улице, рядом есть небольшой магазин, немного дальше уже начинается оживленная улица, где множество кафешек, магазинчиков, турагентств и сувенирных лавочек. Вид на озеро есть, но для этого надо подняться на крышу, а вот вид на вулкан Сан-Педро доступен из любого места в отеле. Территория отеля - ухоженный внутренний дворик с пальмами и другими деревьями, есть гамаки и качели. Сначала нас поселили на первом этаже, но потом хозяин предложил нам переселиться на третий в номер с душем в номере, и без доплаты. Мы согласились, и очень благодарны ха это хозяину, он вообще очень радушный и вежливый человек, готов помочь по любому вопросу. Номер чистый, широкие кровати, легкие теплые одеяла, чтобы ночью не мерзнуть. Горячая вода всегда доступна. Вай-фай хороший. Недостаток - у нас в номере не было ни одной розетки, они были только на общей кухне, но по мне так и лучше, чем сидеть в номере, удобнее было на свежем воздухе, готовишь себе ужин и тут же в фильм смотришь. Посуды на кухне достаточно.

Good price quality - would recommend

Reviewed By Jouke P

Stayed here for one night. Super friendly check-in, they spoke a bit of English which is great. Super close to the main street and the Lancha. Very quiet (i was here during a weekday) The bed was comfortable, the shower was Nice and warm (not much water coming out) and all was very clean. A Nice hammock in front and decent WiFi in the room. Would Def recommend especially for the price.
