It is centrally located and very affordable. It is clean and the staff are helpful. If you are on a budget it is great to stay downstairs with a shared bath. Just make sure to have ear plugs. If you are upstairs it is a tad quieter and you get your own bathroom. The true value is downstairs, but it... More

My girlfriend and I stayed at HCDM for a couple of weeks while we were in Xelaju both studying and trekking. Overall we found the entire experience to be really good. The location was perfect for us being so close to the Parque, Spanish schools and of course the markets and super market too. The whole place was impeccably tidy... More

I was here in "Xela" a couple of weeks ago. Although not as obviously beautiful as Antigua, Xela feels much more like a typical Guatemalan city. There is much beauty here but you may have to dig around a bit more to find it. I love trekking and cycling so I decided to stay here for about 5 days to... More

Casa Dona Mercedes has big bright comfy rooms - upstairs have private bathrooms - and is run by a wonderful helpful woman (Michelle). There is drinking water and a kitchen fully stocked with all everything you need for cooking, and a bright sitting area and dining area off the lobby. A single room with private bath was Q170 (US $22.00).... More

If you are looking for a place to stay in Xela in the mid range this is a perfect place to stay! We are staying in a room with private bathroom. Its really clean, the beds are good (not very often you find that around here) and the shower is big with hot water. If you like cooking for yourself... More

This hostel is pricy compared to similar lodgings in the area, but we thought it was worth the extra money. Our room was big and clean with en-suite bathroom. This is actually the second hostel we looked at - the first we saw (ranked second on TripAdvisor) simply could not compare as far as basic facilities were concerned. The only... More

This place represented the best value for money on my whole trip to Guatemala. Single rooms with shared bath cost 90Q per night and rooms with private bath are (I think) 170Q. There is TV in the rooms, fast wifi, a guest kitchen, hot showers, a nice inside patio area downstairs and an upstairs terrace. All within 2 blocks of the Central Park!!... More
