We actually stayed here in July, 2003 - I'm adding reviews of places I've loved but failed to review in a timely manner. The rooms were smallish and simple but comfortable - loved having hammocks outside the doors and such easy access to the park, where you can enjoy the ruins during the cooler evening and early morning hours when... more

We loved staying at Jaguar Inn. Originally had 3 nights but changed to 2. Purely as we had done everything we had planned to do. The staff were wonderful, very attentive, food was great. Room was really nice - King room near restaurant. The power went off heaps but it didnt matter. THe whole ambience of the Mayan ruins and... more

Yes the rooms are pretty basic and the electricity did go off for us at about 11pm but that was the beauty of it, simple lodging similar to the country you are in. If you want the Ritz go elsehwere but it was great for us. As others mentioned the best way to see the part is to arrive late... more

I just got back from our trip to Belize and Guatemala. We only stayed at the Jaguar Inn for one night. We slept in the quadruple room; there were four of us. There was one double bed and three triple beds. So looking back on it, we could have slept at least 5 people in the room and more if... more

Stayed here 2 nights in August 2009. It was the only bad hotel of the four I stayed in during my trip to Guatemala and Belize. As with the other reviewers, I found service pretty surly, I didn't even use the shower in the bathroom as it was quite unpleasant and the beds weren't comfortable. It's only US$40 a night... more

I stayed here for one night, because I wanted to stay in the park and couldn't afford the other hotels. Our room was large and clean, with a fairly comfy king-sized bed. While it wasn't luxurious, I was very happy with my choice to stay in the park itself--that way, you can come home and shower and nap over lunch,... more

Staff was average, did not go out of their way to help at all. We tried to speak to the manager several times but he was only around at sporadic hours. Exchange rate at the hotel is a total rip-off. They charged us USD 60 for an airport pickup from Flores, when you can get a private taxi for USD... more

Management response from

We take all complaints seriously, and monitor Tripadvisor for feedback. We would like to clarify two points in this review: 1. Our electricity hours changed in mid May 2009, we have 24 hours electricity in our rooms, for fans and lights. 2. The going rate for private taxis from Flores to Tikal is from $50 to $70 US, depending on...

I can't say much about the rooms, as I stayed in one of the Jaguar Inn hammocks for about 5 USD. The experience was definitely worth the price, but I would never do it again, as it turned out to be terribly uncomfortable. What I do want to is acknowledge how great the staff was. They were friendly while I... more

We were pleasantly surprised by the room and the Inn after a hard day of travel from Belize to Tikal. The room was really nice and big with a beautiful bathroom. It is located in the jungle and there is a hemmock next each room. The restaurant is really good and reasonably priced. After we checked in and pull out... more

I would recommend getting money exchanged in Flores prior to arriving in Tikal. There's only a few lodgings in Tikal National Park. These places have horrible exchange rates and a monopoly on your money if you run out of Quezales. The rooms were pretty standard, don't expect a 5-star experience; the beds were more like cots and we stuffed our... more
