Cons:

El olor a desagüe por las mañanas, la ventana de la habitación no se puede cerrar sola y no tienen adaptador para enchufar. Cama con insecto muerto, no vale los 132USD que me cobraron por dormir aquí.

i really wanted to love this place
Pros:

Very beautiful property and gardens, breakfast was good

Cons:

the bed was so bad, very hard and unforgiving. The wifi only worked in the reception/dining area. Room was noisy could here the next door guest using the bathroom. For the price I expected a bit more. The staff was wonderful. If they just put a memory foam topper on the mattress it would be decent.

Hermoso Hotel en Panajachel
Pros:

Excelente hotel para disfrutar de las orillas del lago. Todo el personal muy amable y siempre dispuesto a colaborar. Me gustó que tuviera incluído el servicio de kayak para hacer algo distinto. Las opciones de desayuno eran pocas, pero sustanciosas y muy rico.

Cons:

El hotel está un poco alejado del centro de Panajachel, por ende para cualquier cosa se debe de tomar un servicio de trasnporte o en definitiva alquilar un vehículo, pero tampo fue problema eso sí, se debe de tener presupuestado cada viaje que se desea. Las camas un poco duras para lo que estamos acostumbrados y algo que realmente nos complicó un poco fue la cantidad de tomacorrientes en la habitación, teníamos solo 2 y se debía desconectar el repetidor de internet para poder cargar los dispositivos electrónicos.

Bonito y tranquilo Hotel pero un poco aislado.
Pros:

El jardín y todo esta muy bonito y muy tranquilo para tener un día relajante. El cuarto estaba limpio y el personal atento.

Cons:

En mi cuarto no tenía señal ni WiFi y como estaba hacías atrás me sentía muy aislada. Para un hotel con este pecio siento que por lo menos el WiFi debe funcionar si no hay cobertura de señal.
Por la localizacion siento que es un lugar que es más para estar por ahí todo el día y no para descubrir la ciudad

Stunning location
Pros:

Lovely hotel in a stunning location overlooking the volcanoes on Lake Atitlan. Beautiful well maintained extensive gardens and lovely swimming pool with lake view. Spacious rooms with great views. Delicious food particularly the buffet breakfast at the weekend, so much choice you don’t know where to start. Dining staff very friendly and great choice of food.

Poor communication from front desk on arrival
Pros:

On arrival I was given a piece of paper and told that it was my WIFI. I spent about an hour that afternoon trying to get Winfield in my room but was unable to do so. I went to the front desk for help and was told “ here is your WIFi” Back in the room it wouldn’t work again. So back to the front desk where I was finally told that the WiFi only works in the lobby .i think I should have been told this at checkin.
After my first lunch I signed it to my room as I always do when dining at the hotel. Within five minutes there was a knock on my door saying that the front desk needed my credit card number. They should have asked for this at checkin.
Also service in the restaurant is very slow At dinner last night I waited 25 minutes before anyone came to take my order. The menus are grubby and the drinks folder needed rebinding

Beautiful setting but shockingly expensive for Guatemala
Pros:

Beautiful grounds and stylish hotel. The regular rooms are a bit on the small side for a luxury hotel. This was by far the most expensive place we stayed at in Guatemala, at least double the price of other nice hotels we stayed at.

Annoyances:
- very poor and unreliable wifi in the room.
-having to pay each and every time we ordered something rather than at the end of our stay.
- All other hotels we stayed at had breakfast included, but not here and it was expensive, typically more than dinner at a restaurant in town. Weekends are buffet only (no other option) and the Sunday buffet is elaborate but was 500 QTZ for 2 (about $100 CDN).
- pillows were cheap and uncomfortable.

Lake Atitlan is beautiful and we might come back but would look for a more reasonably priced hotel.

Mala experiencia de hotel
Pros:

El lugar es tranquilo y la piscina bonita.

Cons:

1. Nos apareció un alacrán a las 11 de la noche.
2. No era la habitación que reserve.
3. La habitación tenía malos olores.
4. Eramos 4 personas y solo tenía una habitación, lo demas era como un descan.
5. La cama del cuarto principal muy pequeña, y las demas eran sofá cama y no se pueden unir o juntar.
6. Demasiado caro para lo que ofrecen.
7. Desayuno todos los dias es igual.
8. Jacuzzi lo cierran a las 4pm
9. Desayuno lo sirven a las 8am, si haces tours debes salir tarde.
10. No se puede pagar con otra tarjeta que no sea la registrada en booking.
11. Todo el lugar muy antiguo.

Highly Recommend for Wedding! Amazing Food!
Pros:

We hosted an 80 person wedding at Hotel Atitlan and everything was spectacular! The guests enjoyed beautiful views of the lake and gardens, explored neighboring towns by boat, and raved about the hotel brunch and dinners. It is very hard to simultaneously plate 80 dishes of shrimp, steak, and veggies but they executed masterfully. The welcome party had tricolored tortillas, cheese, beans, two kinds of chorizo, and fresh guacamole and salsa. Between these amazing bites and the exceptional service and friendly staff everyone left impressed!

Pros:

The property is very nicely kept. Has lovely trees and different kinds of birds. The view of the volcanoes is also wonderful.

Cons:

The road to the main town is not paved so traveling for even 10 mins is cumbersome. Their restaurant does not serve dinner and breakfast is served only from 8:00 am onwards. There was no in-room facility to make tea or coffee so my husband had to walk to the nearby hotel to get his coffee.
