It was nearly impossible to sleep at this hotel! The hotel is located right along the main road, which is nice, but it is also so incredibly loud inside the hotel that it is nearly impossible to sleep here. The way the hotel is built, it has a sort of empty column that runs the length of the hotel-- all... More

We stayed at Hotel Kakchiquel for six nights during our visit to Guatemala. The location is great, just a couple of blocks from the lake. The hotel itself is very basic but met our needs. The rooms are plain and a bit dark but the beds fairly comfortable. Our bathroom was a bit run down - the shower door broken... More

First the positive: The rooms were very big and the people at the hotel were extremely friendly. BUT we were with 9 people and 5 of us got bed bugs after this hotel. Furthermore, we were in a room on the ground floor right next to the street, very noisy! Bath room was also not very clean. Unfortunate cause it... More

Thank you... More

Although this hotel may seem expensive in guatemalan standards, it is well worth it. We paid $61.00 USD for a double room with a spacious area with a couch, chair and a counter with a sink. It had windows(abiet could get a wee noisy) and the showre was hot, full breakfast was super and 2 computers with unlimited free access.... More

I am truly gobsmacked by some of the reviews I have read. It is clear that what is comfortable and good to a Backpacker in his 20s or 30s is not the same as defined by the more mature professional traveller looking to travel comfortably. I missed out on the backpacking when I was young. Now at the "ensuite" stage... More

This is the 2nd time we've stayed at the Hotel Kakchiquel in Panajachel, Guatemala. We stayed in a large room on the 2nd floor. The bedrooms were comfortable and the bathroom clean with plenty of hot water. There was a small refrigerator in the room that kept things cold but the noise of the compressor going off and on at...

I think this hotel was pretty good. Centrally located on the main street in Pana. Breakfast was not the greatest but it was ok. I thought the staff could have done a better job of helping ...like a car back to Guatemala city which they couldnt help arrange. 2 computers that are internet ready are available. The rooms have no... More
