The best available hotels & places to stay near Guatemala City

August 11, 2022 Ying Subia

Guatemala City draws visitors whose interests range from Maya history to contemporary culture. Two museums house Maya artifacts, some of which were discovered on a nearby archaeological site. Other museums exhibit indigenous and modern art. In Mercado Central, an underground market, shoppers bargain with vendors selling local handicrafts. Additional attractions include a botanical garden and a scale replica of the Eiffel Tower. A night out in bustling Zona Viva caps off a day of sightseeing.

Poor service

Reviewed By VisitHonduras

Terrible service from front desk. Elias was exceptionally rude. I know it's a tough time, but really–there is no need to be as lazy and as rude as he was. I was very surprised. I can't recommend staying at this hotel. Consider other hotels on the same block.

Great place to stay

Reviewed By TravelerT1111

We travel to Guatemala City a few times a year, this was our first stay at the Hyatt. Rudy greeted us and walked us up the Lobby (note - you have to take the elevator UP to the "L" floor in order to check in, it's not the main level of the building). Rudy was so friendly and took great care taking our heavy suitcases right to the room for us. All the staff were friendly, the roof pool is heated and has great seating options. We did not take the breakfast as we had an early flight out (it says included here on Trip Advisor, but it was in fact, was not included). The rooms were very nice, with lots of personal touches. I liked the free unlimited bottled water, slippers and robes, and toiletries. There was even a scale in the room but I was not brave enough to step on it! Very modern and stylish rooms. The area is fantastic. Attached to a mall with a good dive British pub across the street, PF Changs in the building, Starbucks just a block away, and many good restaurants nearby. We walked around into the night and always felt safe. Side note - we tried to get an Uber to the airport and that took us 40 minutes. Most of the Ubers were too small to accommodate our luggage (just 2 suitcases), so plan accordingly. If I had known, we would have saved time and caught 2 Ubers, or spoken with the front desk in advance about our options. The drive itself to the airport was just over 10 minutes.

Great location, rooms and staff!

Reviewed By NicCincinnati

5th stay over the last 15 years and we continue to return! We love the location for shopping, dining, bowling, etc. A few covid things - the pool was easy to schedule with the spa desk and we were able to enjoy the pool and hot tub, ping pong supplies were still available at spa desk, executive lounge is closed which we were initially disappointed about - but buffet is included instead (which was wonderful!). The airport pickup was difficult to schedule due to the website not accepting USA credit cards, but the front desk was able to assist. Our scheduled ride to the airport was on time for our 4am departure and very pleasant! Housekeeping was perfect, as always! Our room was comfy and clean. Thank you for being so kind and consistent at the front desk over the years!

Not the best for business

Reviewed By allanaN2259NX

Not suitable for business travelers more for tourists. Unable to conduct meetings in the public areas (business , lounge, or patio). If you plan to relax or have a casual business discussion it will be very difficult. My clients (locals) and myself repeatedly asked for the music to be turned down, even slightly. We were told by the staff it was not possible as per management policy. It was to create an atmosphere to attract street business to the bar. The patio was impossible to sit out on as the large speakers are directly over your head. There are better hotels in the area which are more suitable. Best for tourists for a stop over.

Average hotel in zona 9…

Reviewed By Hauptstadteinwohner

I stayed here for four nights on points. Location to the airport is convenient, food and supermarket in walking distance. Zona 9 is considered as one of the more safe areas in Guatemala City. Also close is the metro bus service to Centro historico which I used several times. Just a credit card with tap functionality is all you need to get through the gate. Checkin was quick and efficient. I was told that my room got upgraded which didn’t show in the app. The room itself was more a small room with a connecting door letting the noise from the neighbors through. During cleaning I was able to see other rooms and I can tell, I got one of the smallest room. Just look at the picture for the room view. Internet was free, not sure if it was because I am Diamond or if it’s general. Speed was really slow with 4mbits in down and upload. Not recommended if you need to work. Breakfast was free as Diamond and the staff was very nice. Good selection on fruits, sliced meats and cheese, local foods, fresh juices and egg station. Although still no self service on buffet yet back.
