Lake Atitlán's volcanos show themselves best in the am (about 6:00 when we were there). The view from the patio as night turns to dawn is excellent; later in the morning and day we couldn't see the volcanos at all for mist and cloud. Standard rooms just fine though dark because of vine covered walkways. Supposed to be eco-conscious in... More

Though not a fan of larger 'posher' hotels when we travel we chose this place for its location - and so glad we did! Panajachel is noisy, busy and just a location to stay for all the amazing and wondeful trips around the lake. We had a Lake View Room and every morning got up early to enjoy the sun... More

After being taken to Chichicastenango, where many of the stalls were full of rubbish for sale to tourists and which was rather boring in comparison to many rural markets we have visited in other parts of the world, it was a pleasure for my wife and I to arrive at Posada de Don Rodrigo in Panajachel.

The people who work here are across the board just plain NICE. That said, I simply cannot recommend this room at $100 per night and this is why: in the lakeside rooms - the nicest ones, in theory...the room is so dark, I cannot fully pack tonight. There is one weak light and I can't see my things to pack.... More

We had already stayed 3 nights at their sister hotel in Antigua so we had gotten a 10% discount on our stay at this hotel too. I had read that the lake view rooms were worth the difference in price and it is really true. The other rooms seemed dark and smaller. I am sure they are ok and if... More

We booked this hotel a long time in advance through a booking agency online. We had booked all our rooms with lake view and received a confirmation.

There's not much to do in Panajachel so it helps to stay at a nice hotel and just enjoy the stunning views across the lake. The hammocks provided a relaxing rainy afternoon and the veranda is perfect for breakfast with full views of the volcanoes.

We stayed at La Posada with our kids in a room in the newer wing that faces the lake. The room and bathroom were outdated and dark, which made it seem a bit dirty.

Our guide book said this hotel was 'away from the action' so I expected it to be off the beaten path, which it isn't. In fact, it's right in the lake shore and quite in 'the action.'
