We stayed here for one week at the end of April and it was perfect. It was a great jumping off point for all the sights in the area. The staff was excellent. They were friendly and helpful, and got everything ready for us each day. The food was excellent. Always cooked when we were hungry despite our hectic schedule.... More

Went over in November to stay at the resort. The place has great view. Other than the traffic passing by on the highway about 75 yards away (you don't really hear that), the place is really quiet. There is wifi you can use in your rooms, which are very comfortable, air conditioning, clean beds, nice baths, and a little closet... More

San Ignacio and the surrounding area is HOT. You'll likely be spending a lot of time outdoors checking out caves and ruins. You'll be incredibly happy to have a room with A/C when you get back to Rumors each day. The location is just west of San Ignacio on the Western Highway. Any bus heading west to Benque can drop...

Rumors sits right on top of a hill just west of San Ignatio Belize. Mayan ruins, river tours, caves exploration, Guatemala, Tikal. All are within easy reach of this place and many others in the San Ignatio area. The thing that makes this one special is it's quiet! Air conditioning is included. Francisco and Rosy are as nice and helpful... More

I agree with what has been said. The hotel is a great value. We were 3 and found the room to be lovely and very clean, with tiled bathroom and spacious shower. Francisco offered to put out a 3rd bed in the room so we could all sleep comfortably and it was set up when we arrived. It was great... More

We have spent 2 nights at Rumors and were well taken care of by very attentive staff. We were upgraded from a premium single to a premium double in the new section of the hotel. It was beautifully decorated and very clean. It had a coffeemaker and refrigerator and they even provided the coffee for the pot. The view is... More

On my last trip to Belize in August 2012, we went straight to San Ignacio. After spending the first week in three different hotels, a local recommended Rumors. Since I was traveling with my daughter and a friend who was confined to a wheelchair, we drove out to see the hotel. As soon as I met Frankie and Rosie, I... More

I stayed at Rumors hotel with my father in late January. I made reservations directly through the hotel instead of the other websites. Francisco was very prompt with his replies to my e-mails, offered great rates and made reliable room recommendations. Upon our arrival at the hotel, Francisco checked us into one of their new rooms. The room was CLEAN,... More

Rumours Hotel is a fantastic, friendly and quiet place to stay just outside San Ignacio - a great place to crash out and relax after your Sightseeing/tubing/caving/hiking/jungle bashing tour in the surrounding area! If you're arriving in San Ignacio by local bus - DON'T get off at in the town centre - Rumours is about 2 miles out of town... More

This place is a hidden gem! I stumbled upon Rumors through a link on one of the tour operator websites in town. I knew I found the right place when the hotel manager, Frankie, replied to my initial email inquiry so quickly, answered all my questions, and added so much additional helpful information and tips about San Ignacio and the...
