“nice little hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 16, 2013

I stayed here two nights in December '12. The hotel is very nice and clean. The front staff is very helpful. The only complaint I have with this hotel is that the walls are very thin, and the showers are only seperated by a thin wall that is not even ceiling high. Its not terrible but anything done in the bathroom will be heard by someon in the other rooms bathroom. Great landing spot before experiencing places on the lake.

“Good location and great service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 30, 2013 via mobile

We stayed two nights at this posada. The service was excellent. The hotel is located on the main street, but the rooms are not affected by the street noise at night. The receptionist was very helpful. In addition, a long- term guest from Canada helped us with our luggage and provided recommendations for restaurants and places to visit. This is a small gem in a pleasant town by lake Atitlan,.

“Pretty hotel, good location, helpful staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed January 12, 2013

Stayed here a couple of nights.

The hotel itself is pretty - has an elegant style, there's a small well-kept garden, and a good view. The rooms are quite spacious and have clean and well furnished bathrooms.

Highlights for me were: 1) the guy on reception (Fransisco, I think) was very friendly and knowledgeable, he gave us advice on how to get to places and put up with me quizzing him relentlessly on his life in Guatemala, 2) the parrot at reception, Paco, who is a delight.

The tours/shuttles that you could organise from the hotel were reasonably priced at the going rate (think they were ATI TRANS).

The location is convenient for the boats (lanchas) and is right next to where my shuttle from Antigua arrived. On the other hand, its maybe a 10-15 minute walk from the busier part of Pana town (which seemed to us to be away from the waterfront). That didn't bother us.
Its a good hotel, and you pay a premium for the service and luxury. If I was staying in Pana again, I'd stay there again.

Room Tip: Top floor probably has the best view, but there's no lift. All rooms are away from the street.

“Great for the money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 30, 2012 via mobile

The owner is extremely nice and accommodating. The location is really nice, only a couple blocks from the lake. The rooms are cozy but really small, for the money it was perfect. Would stay here again. The only complaint I have was that in paying for the shuttle service they get over on the exchange rate so you end up paying a little more than other places. Finding private transportation in guatemala is so easy you need not use the shuttle at the hotel. But overall I was highly satisfied and truly enjoyed this hotel.

“A nice place to stay in Pana”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 23, 2012

This place is really pretty, and the staff are very polite and helpful. They speak good English and can set you up with pretty much anything you want to do in the area - from paragliding to trips to other cities. The location is great, as it's right on the "main" street and an easy walk to shops, restaurants, lanchas, etc. Highly recommended.
