My wife and I stayed here in April 2012 during the Holy Week festivities. We initially weren't impressed by the value for money, even taking into consideration most hotels double their rates during this time. The hotel does not accept credit cards also which is quite unusual. The reception staff were very cheerful and helpful when we arrived very late... More

This hotel is ok. Nice internal courtyard and pleasant helpful staff, but... Can't say the same for the management methods. Two weeks in advance of Holy week, (during which the majority of hoteliers double their regular rates), I was shown a nice room and prepaid $210 in cash for three nights, When I arrived in Holy Week, I was shown...

We booked 5 nights at Posada Los Bucaros at $45 a night; however, we were told that the main hotel was full for the first 2 nights but they had rooms available for us in their Annex. We agreed to this arrangement and assumed that the rooms in the Annex would be comparable; however, the difference between Posada Los Bucaros... More

I spent three nights at Los Bucaros, and enjoyed the hotel. As a woman traveling alone, and with minimal Spanish, I felt very safe in the hotel and the surrounding neighborhood. My room was very clean. It was set in an interior courtyard with a window only on the courtyard, so it was a little dark. The first night, there... More

I arrived at the hotel and no one spoke English. Because of this language barrier, no one could explain to me that although I booked 4 months ago, the hotel was full and I was staying at an annix 2 blocks down. This hotel was absolutely awful. There was no organization and they had no idea I was staying with... More

Stayed with a tour three separate times in November, 2011. The staff were fantastic, and it was a great base to explore Antigua. Even getting into Antigua late at night and speaking minimal Spanish, the front desk staff were attentive, and easy to deal with. Rooms were large and well kept. Very easy walk to get to the attractions in... More

Good size rooms, hotel has plenty or character and has been very well restored. Stayed here for 3 nights after a group trip ended in this... More

The hotel is delightful, excellent accommodation. The service is probably the best I've had. The hotel owner is always making sure that you have everything you need. The hotel staff is excellent at making you feel comfortable. Breakfast was delicious every day. Reservation process was effortless. The transportation service from and to the airport is excellent. I have absolutely no... More
