Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is a charming gem offering spacious and comfortable rooms with a beautiful fireplace and vaulted ceilings. The warmth of the room made the experience quite pleasant, although some minor noise could be heard. The service was exceptional, especially from Carlos at the front desk and Samuel at the restaurant. The location is excellent, providing a peaceful atmosphere yet close to all the major sights. The dining experience was delightful, with top-notch dishes served by friendly staff. Overall, a wonderful stay with great value for money.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were beautifully designed with unique furniture from an early past century. The private courtyard with a hot tub was a lovely touch, making my three-night stay feel way too short. The service exceeded my expectations, with the staff always working at record speed and showing genuine care. The location was perfect, just a 5-minute walk from Central Plaza and offering stunning views of the volcanos. The dining options were delightful, with a great variety of delicious dishes to choose from. Overall, a top-notch experience with a few minor drawbacks that I'd happily overlook for the wonderful stay.
