Hotel berhampiran Caoba Farms Restaurant, Antigua Guatemala

The place is very dated. I understand it is supposed to be an antique place, but the rooms are very run down. The curtains are very old, ragged, and dirty; the carpets appear very dirty, things were falling apart including the lamps next to the beds, the soap holder in the shower, and various other things. The common areas appear nice, but I did not partake on them. The property is very small and it very much feels like an old house. I hated the fact that I had to be knocking on the front door to let me in and out whenever we went out of the property. Guests are not given keys to the front door. The wifi is very slow and it stopped working at 9:30 PM. Also the there is no cable tv. Only streaming of your own subscriptions. (i.e. Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc.). Again, this is your own subscription. Definitely the place is very over priced for what you get. At best, it should cost half of the current rates. There are much better options to stay in Antigua than this property. The staff was attentive, but it does not make for the shortfalls of the place. Never again for me.

I was very disappointed with one of the bay staff. I was a paying guest at the hotel and wanted to watch a Euros football game in the restaurant area and have a few drinks - the dining area was very quiet with only three other people who were having a drink and watching the game. I sat down and was told I couldn’t watch the game if I was only going to drink and not order food. I had to take my child and sit in the bar area and I couldn’t see the screen. What upset me was the three other guests didn’t order food and were allowed to sit at a table and two additional visitors who were not paying guests walked in and were allowed to watch the game and not order food. The dining area was empty throughout the game with many empty tables. All of these people sitting at tables (not ordering food) were male and I felt discriminated against and bullied because I was female with a child. The cleaners and hotel staff were nice but the one bar staff member (the one who spoke good English) ruined my experience at this hotel.

We stayed there for 2 nights and had the amazing chance of being upgraded to a suite for one night at no extra cost. Amazing comfort, warm shower, devoted employees, clean rooms. Well equiped kitchen.

This place is lovely and tranquil around a lush tropical garden. The rooms are high ceilinged and stone. It was spotlessly clean and very quiet. The hot water was great, and the room had a good fan. The free breakfast was made to order, and excellent. The location is maybe 2 blocks from the main plaza. There is a roof top deck which is good for views, but closed after 7 PM. There also isn't really any place to sit or hang out up there. We were here on a weekend, and noticed no noise from the outside.

Beautiful colonial hotel in a fantastic location in Antigua, it has a beautiful rooftop with a great view of the city with the added feature of the “I love Antigua” sign. In the rooftop you can go for drinks, a romantic date or simply grab a bite. The room was big, comfortable and kudos to the renovated bathrooms with a great shower. Everyone was very nice, overall great experience

Stepping into Hotel Posada de Don Rodrigo was like taking a journey back to the early days of the Spanish colonial city in Guatemala. The doors, ceilings, courtyard, floors, and decor capture that time to make staying at the hotel like living in a museum. The hotel is lovingly restored and maintained. My favorite room was the restaurant with a spectacular intricate carved wood ceiling painted green and other colors. There's a wonderful old fountain on one wall. In the mornings and evenings, a band plays Spanish music. At night, dancers in costumes perform as well. The room, performers and excellent food and drinks make a visit to the restaurant a don't miss event. When we came back to Antigua a second time before our flight out, we decided to go back to the restaurant for dinner again because we loved it so much. We especially enjoyed the beef tenderloin and sangria. The courtyard is lush and green, with a series of colorful paintings set on easels capturing various sites, and flora and fauna of Guatemala. Flowering plants and the chirping of birds add to the ambiance making for a romantic and charming setting. The rooms line the courtyard with eclectic sitting areas with furniture consistent with the colonial era. There are large pottery urns sprinkled throughout providing water for drinking. The contrast between the hectic street right outside of the hotel, smack in the middle of all of the action, and the serene open hallways and courtyard is striking. We were a bit disappointed our room was very small with just a standard double bed. My husband is 6 foot 6 and it was snug. The only window was a hinged opening in the heavy dark wood antique door out to the courtyard. There was no safe in the room which concerned us because we didn't want to carry all of our cash with us. We ended up hiding money in the room. I suspect we didn't need to work so hard to hide it because when we left money out to tip the people who made up our room, they didn't take it. This happened in other hotels in Guatemala as well. There's security at the front door and the staff members were all warm, friendly, eager to assist, and competent. We didn't expect air-conditioning, and there wasn't any. During the day, the room did get a bit warm and stuffy, but by evening, it cooled off enough to be comfortable. Despite the hotel's age, it was spotless and well-maintained. We ended up staying in three different hotels in Antigua during our trip. This one was my favorite, despite the small room, because the attention to every detail was so thorough. It is an unforgettable place and among the highlights of our trip.

This hotel has so much potential but so badly managed and poorly maintained. We had booked three nights and only stayed one; Here are some of the reasons: 1. The pool doesn’t work (they never informed us of this nor published it on any of the sites) 2. When we arrived to our room, we noticed the AC was making some really weird noises and not cooling (thank goodness it wasn’t summer otherwise it would have been a sauna in there) . We called reception at night but it wasn’t fixed and we had to spend the night hearing the equivalent to an engine inside our room. 3. If you are brave enough to stay here MAKE SURE YOUR ROOM DOESNT FACE THE STREET, otherwise be ready to be awake at 4:00 am by drunk people and passing cars. 4. In the morning I was taking a shower and noticed the water wasn’t draining properly, then I noticed the mold (caused by the lack of proper drainage) My husband asked the hotel manager (Marco Vinicio) for a room change. It took him 5 hours to give us an answer (even though we checked with him 3 times during the morning). At the end, the change couldn’t happen. We then proceeded to book at Casa Santo Domingo (which is AMAZING by the way) and the manager told us we needed to contact Booking directly if we wanted to get reimbursed. I showed him Booking’s policies online, which clearly stated that it is up to the hotel to give the reimbursement, he said that’s not how they do it. I then proceeded to call Booking so they could request the reimbursement (like he had asked me to do) and after getting an email from Booking, he then proceeded to say they could not do it. This whole ordeal was now on its 6th hour. During this time other guests complained about BUGS on their beds. I asked the to talk to Jessica Lopez (who is the sales manager) and she refused to talk to me - in person or over the phone. By this time, Marco Vinicio was literally hiding on the second floor where I had to go get them. Even the guy from Booking (who stayed on the phone with me for about an hour) was in shock about how badly they were handling the situation. This was such an anticipated vacation, my husband and I had been planning it for a year and they managed to ruin it.
