When I checked into Pension Bonifaz, the immediate impression I had was, "I am not quite sure what all the fuss is about." I had heard goods things, but quickly learned there are many trade-offs here, and at a significant price (nearly $100/night-ridiculously overpriced for Xela). The first question you should ask yourself when you arrive is, do you want... More

One of the better hotels in Xela but way overpriced. We stayed here for 1 night and moved to the opposite side of parque central to another hotel for half the cost with similar great location. This has almost a European feel with a pool on the 3rd level (which can be noisy if you have adjacent rooms). Breakfast service... More

The hotel was rated as one of the finer hotels in this beautiful city, but our stay was very unsatisfactory. The worst part was the quality of the beds, especially the mattress. My wife and I woke up with back pain. The second night there was no hot water, without any announcement. When I called in they laconically said this... More

When I first stepped into the hotel, I thought it was amazing. We parked on what appears to be the fourth floor. Then, we got to our rooms on the fifth floor. I had a room with 2 queen beds, 1 rollaway twin bed, a TV, a tiny balcony, and a bathroom with complimentary mineral water. I never swam in... More

The Pension Bonifaz hotel is located right across the central park of Quetzaltenango. The room is acceptable, the bathroom is pretty old and the windows are small. Anyway the hotel is an old facility well manteined, and a very nice place to stay if you want to be close to everything in Xela. I stayed there twice and for me... More

I always stay at Hotel Modelo, and felt like a traitor to H. Modelo, but decided to try out Bonifaz. Maybe because I got a good rate, it seems like a great deal. The beds are firm, nice big pillows, flat screen TV (why is remote chained to bedside table?), and bathrooms are updated with nice tiles (maybe this is... More

The Bonifaz is located in the center of the city with very easy access to stores and restaurants and also ample parking. But for the price the hotel charges you can get a lot more, the bathroom should be more spacious and desperately needs renovation. It feels about 50 years old. The high price still does not include breakfast and... More

There is good parking available at the back of hotel. The location of the park is right at the Central park so its great. The hotel is very expensive for Guatemala standards. Its old and historic building, but quarky as it has different levels added at different times. No updating much of facilities or furniture over the years. Security and... More

I had previously stayed at Hotel Modelo which has fantastic service but very tiny rooms and I froze to death there. I was much more comfortable at Bonifaz. I selected a honeymoon suite because I was afraid the rooms would be small here as well. While I would never opt to stay here on any sort of a honeymoon, the... More
