Very clean place and staff is very helpful. The food was phenomenal. I had dinner twice there and the food was like eating at a five star restaurant, It was surprisingly good. The hotel is a 10 min walk to the boats that take you across the lake for town hopping. Lots and lots of places to eat, located in the Heart of Santiago, Atitlan. I would definitely make reservations here again in the future. For travelers with rental vehicles, I would say be weary of tight spaces. I had a small car so I had no issues weaving in and out of the streets. Big SUV's and trucks will probably have a harder time getting around. There is plenty to see and plenty to do if you decide not to cross the lake. A few blocks from the hotel is a market that offers everything you want at very affordable rates as well as plenty of small food stands that offer the best of Guatemalan street foods. I was very happy with my stay and couldn't have picked a better place. ##### Erik Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leticia Sofia 10 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I strongly recommend this hotel to all tourists who want to have a great time in the area ##### Leticia Sofia Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daphne A 2 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very clean, excellent staff,, beautiful views ##### Daphne A Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carmen 10 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing stay!

While the Hotel Palmera Dorada itself is decent on the inside with nice rooms, everything else about this stay was a nightmare. The Location: The hotel is situated in what feels like the most dangerous neighborhood in Santiago Atitlán. It is surrounded by pitch-black alleys with zero lighting and is constantly teeming with drunks and suspicious individuals. We felt like targets every time we stepped foot outside the gate. If you value your safety, do not stay here. The Checkout (The Breaking Point): Despite having fully prepaid my stay through Expedia, the checkout experience was traumatizing. An armed guard physically blocked us from leaving the premises. They refused to let us exit until they had "inspected" the rooms, treating us like common thieves or criminals. I have traveled all over the world and have never been subjected to such a humiliating and hostile protocol. Being held against my will by an armed individual over a pre-paid room is completely unacceptable. Message to Expedia & Management: I am expecting a formal response from Expedia immediately. This was not just bad service; this was unlawful restraint. I am currently in the process of escalating this claim with a lawyer to address the actions of the staff and the lack of safety at this location. STAY AWAY. ##### Ricardo Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Gabriel 12 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lujoso y con una maravillosa vista La llegada hasta el hotel en carro por el tipo de calles del pueblo es un tanto complicada y al llegar siendo la 1 PM salió una señorita que nos indicó que el check in era hasta las 3 PM, y en la confusión de este mensaje nos dió a entender que no podíamos ingresar a las instalaciones antes de esa hora. Finalmente nos abrió el portón para ingresar al parqueo y realmente nos sorprendieron las instalaciones. En general todo estuvo de maravilla, pero las camas dobles no son tamaño Queen, pero muy cómodas eso sí. ![Vista desde la piscina por la noche ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E454F5C6B4D138BC4DEECCCD8EF61F24BCD835E71699795941022.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Gabriel Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mishell 3 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excelente hotel la piscina una belleza ##### Mishell ### 6/10 Okay #### Nilsson 20 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Amenities El acceso es muy complicado no nos dejaron usar la piscina ##### Nilsson Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Frank 7 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Todo muy hermoso ##### Frank Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Yunuen 16 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness Me asignaron una hab. En piso 2 junto al bar (el bar está en el pasillo sin paredes que aislen), justo saliendo de mi habitación a escasos 10 pasos. Tenía que lavantarne 4:30 am y el bar dejó de hacee ruido poco después de las 23:00, me ofrecieron cambiarme de hab. Pero cuando llamé en repetidas ocasiones nadie respondió el teléfono. De hecho para reportar el ruido tuve que llamar de mi celular al conmutador del hotel, por que de la hab. No me tomaban la llamada. Lo ilógico es que habiendo habitaciones libres asignen lss que ya sabeb serán ruidosas. En definitiva no rgresaría, es nuevo el hotel pero mal diseñado, JAMÁS asignas el bar al lado de las habitaciones. ##### Yunuen Stayed 1 night in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Oscar 13 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Muy bonitas instalaciones, muy buenos precios y calidad de la comida. El acceso es complicado, uno se pierde fácilmente en calles donde es complicado transitar en carro. ##### Oscar Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adam 5 Feb 2025 ##### Adam Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Antonio 23 Dec 2024 ##### Antonio Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Hyun Jun 10 Apr 2023 ##### Hyun Jun Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ---
