The Iguana Azul hostel was a great find. After being swarmed by people citing the best hotel in town, we followed another traveller's recommendation and went to the Iguana Azul on the far side of Copan Ruinas, Honduras (a pretty small town). The private room ($11/night) we got was clean and comfortable, they have hot showers and a nice yard,... more

This hostel is the best value for the money we have found in Europe or the Americas. We always stay the in private rooms. We have stayed here for years, when we take guests to see the ruins. It is far enough away from the park so that the noise from the bars does not disturb your sleep. The hot... more

This hostel is likely one of the best deals I've encountered. Beautiful rooms at an extraordinarily cheap price. FREE WATER!!! - alone this will save you money to buying numerous bottles each day In the LP guide, this place is described as a bit of a trek from and it looks reasonably far on a map. However, the walk into... more

I went with a friend and we booked 2 beds in the dorm room (5$ each). For the price we expected a dump but we were very impressed. We were surprised to find: comfortable beds; Hot showers; clean toilets/beds; all the signs/information were in english (good for me, bad for the spain-ian that stayed there); everyone was INCREDIBLY friendly (guests... more

Iguana Azul is superb value for money, spotlessly clean, full of local info, real hot showers, friendly staff, great place to meet other travellers, great location just out of town center by a couple of blocks so quiet but only a few minutes by foot from the action. Would recommend to anyone travelling to Copan Ruinas!! Many thanks! more

We stayed at a number of hostels whilst travelling around Honduras, and this was one of the best. We stayed in a dorm room (3 bunk beds) which was $5 a night and excellent value. There were also private rooms for a few dollars more. The facilities were spotlessly clean, the shared toilet and shower facilities were situated outside, and... more

The Blue Iguana is the place to stay when in Copan Ruinas. In fact it is the best place to stay in Honduras in my opinon. You get a decent bed for only $5.00 a night in a very clean and quiet neighbourhood or you can get a private room for $11.00. Lets not forget that there is lots of... more

We just spent 3 nights at the Iguana Azul and were delighted! It is clean, has hot water and plenty of bathrooms. They also offer clean water for free to drink and 2 areas for sitting. All for $18 a night for 3 people. The only down side is that it is a bit on the edge of town and... more

We stayed in a few Hostels in Honduras and this was by far and away the best of them. The rooms are clean and airy. The staff are very nice and just add to the unique atmosphere. The hostel is located just far enough away from the downtown area that there is very little noise, but within easy walking distance... more
