The staff was very nice and helpful however the hotel is old, dingy, and out of date for the price. (We also had ants.) For the price, there are newer (or remodeled nicely and up to date) hotels nearby.

we went on bookings.com to book this hotel but thought it best to leave a review here too, 5 pictures are used as their main profile pictures, one of them showing a buffet style breakfast, this is why we booked, do not be fooled by this, there will be no buffet breakfast, just the standard egg on a plate and a small dollup of refried beans with a nacho stuck in it

Old hotel, parking free but very tight which I can deal with; what I wont is BUGS in the room. We had 2 rooms on different floors and both room had them. They also claim they have a suttle to the airport but they told me not early in the morning so I guess office hours. Would I stay there again? Definitely not!!

Made a last minute reservation at the Santander and was informed that all they had available was a Master Suite. As expected this was quite a bit more expensive then other rooms we had previously stated in. We needed a room so we took it. The flight was delayed and the hotel driver had given up on us and returned to the hotel without us. After several phone calls we were informed that the van would pick us up within 30 minutes. We got out Suite which was a rather nice room on the top floor and let the desk know that there was no water pressure. When we opened the faucet we could hear air being sucked into the pipes. When we returned from dinner the water would flow but at low pressure. We figured the pump would increase pressure over night. WRONG.. The pressure dropped and air would suck into the pipes when we opened the faucets. There was no water in the sinks, shower or toilet. The problem was not remedied by the time we checked out. When checking out the desk clerk took notes about the problem and said he was sorry but made no offer to compensate us at all.

Hello everyone, We were invited to a wedding nearby and decided to stay in the city instead of driving a back home. We selected Plaza Santander. Unfortunately it seems we were welcome by a “I do not want to be here” host that was cold and unfriendly. When we went to bed, although our room was on the 5th floor, we could hear the street noises and parties and could not go to bed until 12:30 am! The complimentary breakfast was good, not great but good. Unfortunately for me, as I am T2 Diabetic, there was no juices without sugar nor whole wheat bread available. The parking lot is very small and when We went for our car, we were blocked by another car and we had to wait for the guest to come down and move his car. Although it is nice hotel, I do not consider I received the service I paid for. My recommendation would be: double check before selecting this hotel.

Great access from the hotel but some of the pictures were clearly from an upgraded room that they did. It is comfortable, security is a little lax from a few other places I stayed in the area, but I never felt concerned. The service is good, but you can definitely get better priced hotels for better quality in comparison.

The hotel provides free shuttles to/from airport. Accommodations are clean, comfortable but show a bit of worn appearance. Room was larger than expected with a microwave and coffee set-up. Staff was helpful with directions to local restaurants and spoke English quite well.

My wife and I have stayed at this hotel several times, we absolutely recommend it. We choose this hotel because it offers excellent service, the breakfast is super delicious, the people are very friendly and it’s a cozy beautiful classic style hotel. We definitely recommend it for a trip to Guatemala.

Even though the hotel is outdated and has seen better days, is also a good option if your a business traveler on a tight budget. It is safe, clean, offers good breakfast (included in the rate) and great location (zona 10). It is at walking distance from Fontabella wich offers great restaurant options. They need to fix the shower´s water pressure

Guatemala has a horrible reputation left over from years of civil war. However, our stay at the Santander introduced us to the new Guate - beautiful staff, lovely accommodations, good food and access to all the city has to offer. A quick walk to two major shopping districts, easy transport via Uber to anywhere you want to go, and amazing views of the city. Stay here when you get here!
