Hotel Guatemala City dengan Spa

Considering the rating of the hotel, I expected better service. It wasn’t bad service but not on par with other 4/5 star hotels I’ve been to throughout the world. Room was clean and comfortable although the interior is a bit outdated. I would probably choose to stay elsewhere next time for the price.

I arrived on September 17th 1:12 pm to check in to this hotel. The receptionist guy said check in was not until 3:00pm. I could have sworn I saw something on the hotels.com website that said there was a 2 hour early check in option. Pretty sure I chose it. Not sure how it didn't register. So I decided to check out the restaurant. I sat down and was greeted but a waiter. He said, we have great buffet with bla bla bla bla” I can't remember but he was REALLY trying to sell it. So I took a look at the buffet. It looked alright. There was no price visible anywhere so I didn't know how much it was. I asked the waiter and he told me to wait. He went to some room to get a scratch piece of paper. He wrote the price on the paper. It was kinda vague and his hand writing was strange. I had to ask him 3 times to clarify the price. He finally said “$34 for the lunch buffet”..... I immediately grabbed my bags and walked out. I've been all over the world and can't remember paying anywhere near that much for a lunch buffet. Not even in Europe. Around 3:00pm I was given my room key and room number. Took the elevator to room 802. It was a pretty nice room overall. The refrigerator didn't work though. Later on that night I asked some receptionist guy if I could get my refrigerator replaced. He said he would make a note of it and first thing in the morning it would be replaced. It wasn't. Around noon time the next day I went down the reception and asked a lady if she had any notes about someone needing a refrigerator replaced. Instead of answering my question she asked what my room number was. I again asked her if the receptionist guy from last night passed on the information. She again wouldn't answer and kept asking for my room number. This went on about 3 minutes or so. She then asked my name. I told her. She used this to find my room number. Still no answers about why I still had no replacement refrigerator and if any info was passed on from last night. She said I would get a replacement refrigerator soon. I didn't. Around 4:00pm I heard some cleaning ladies in the hall. I told her my refrigerator didn't work and asked them if I could get one from a near by room. She said, “OK sure”. She even carried it to my room as I grabbed the broke one and placed it in the hall. So in short... The receptionists suck at this hotel. Bathroom: Its pretty nice. The ventilation fan didn't work though. Gym: It's pretty darn good. Only thing missing was a flat bench press. There is a 45lbs bar laying on the floor though. So I am guessing this gym did have one at some point in time. The gym closes at 9:00pm. Which is still better than the Grand Tikal Futura which closes at 7:30pm. WiFi: It was good overall. It has that quirky log in system though. So after a minute of so of no activity on your smart phone it will disconnect. And you have the repeat the process over again. Breakfast: Overall it's pretty good. No buffet. Just

El servicio pésimo no atendieron a mi familia y el desayuno ni lo pasaron cuando estaba pagado se salieron y no dijeron nada como fue como la primera vez que fue bien. Atendido buen servicio tal vez sea el personal de este día 26 de junio

環境整潔 交通方便

Good, small boutique hotel in a quiet, safe neighborhood (Zona 10, where most of the embassies and 5* chain hotels are, just down the road from the Intercontinental, for example). 3 blocks away from the Oakland mall, and the supermarket next to it, so plenty of dining options or you can purchase your own snacks, wine etc. Room service sandwich was good, and the daily (included on my ********* purchase) breakfast in a nice sunny space on the roof was excellent. Good clean rooms, excellent water pressure, solid wifi, several power points in proper working desk. No fridge, no mini bar or snacks, which is a missed opportunity I think. 10usd for a ride to the airport nearby (about 15mins) , though I'm sure the website said it was included, but whatever. Friendly staff, v organized reception speaking good English. Recommended for a couple of nights.

We booked 2 nights here via AmX travel desk. We (kids) were disappointed to discover that the pool was closed down. We assume AmX were not informed. They had an agreement with a pool near by, but it looked pretty bad. We tried to leave after one night to WestIn down the road, which had much better amenities (at a slightly higher price point). We were told this was not possible without paying a penalty. The room was also dated; bathroom was very old and a/c in the room was ineffective. On a positive note, Markets restaurant was excellent (see separate review). Staff were also helpful.

The Good-- LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION.. Fontabella Hotel is located in the middle of zone 10, on top of a great shopping area, with multiple restaurants, and near everything!! The BAD-- We stayed twice during our trip. Both times we were given room 306 and both times we complained and were told the hotel was full and they could not change it. The room smelled AWFUL. Our bedroom faced towards the shopping center and we had what was probably a karaoke bar making noise every night until 1 am. The hotel did not have maid service during holidays (November 1st) and Sundays!!! The UGLY-- checking out.. basically they harass you to leave your room early. We will not stay there again.
