We spent two nights in Antigua at this hotel. The hotel is absolutely gorgeous, the wine was excellent. The bathroom was beautiful and the bed comfortable. The only two complaints I have is that 1) we were on the second floor and had a windowed skylight. We were woken up every day at 4 a.m. because there were dogs barking... more

We just returned from an 8 day stay at El Convento and loved it! The facility is amazing. It is meticulously kept up, well landscaped, and has little surprises around every corner. The wood carvings, fountains, garden sculptures and lighting make you feel like you are in a spa. Our favorite features were the in-room fireplace, private courtyard, private jacuzzi,... more

We (my girlfriend and I) stayed at El Convento in October 2008 for 3 nights in a junior suite (we were upgraded on arrival from a regular suite). This was an absolutely amazing hotel and one of the best I have found anywhere in the world. The room was beautifully finished with small details everywhere that harked back to its... more

El Convento is a most elegant boutique hotel, well located about five minutes walk from the Parque Central and opposite the former Capuchin Convent (whose partially restored ruins are well worth a visit). The hotel is a careful conversion of a town house - not, despite the name, a convent - and includes a small indoor garden and pool. We... more

El Convento was our favorite inn during the two special weeks we spent in Guatemala. It is a paradigm for the perfect boutique hotel. A year old, every facility is spotless and cotemporary, yet the style is that of a restored 17th century hacienda. Our room and bathroom was reasonably large and very comfortable. The fixtures were brand new and... more

We decided to go to Guatemala for a special treat and after a lot of searching decided that El Convento fitted the bill. It was spotless, the staff were friendly with a fantastic atmosphere. It is a small hotel so it is very quiet. We had the Bella Epocha suite which was superb. Hope to go back some day. more

This hotel is amazing! The rooms are great, the bathrooms spectacular, comfortable beds, staff nice and good food. We stayed there for our first three out of six nights in Guatemala. Was the best hotel by far!!!!!! Can't wait to stay there again. more

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL. We stayed for 3 nights, and loved every detail of it!!! The hotel has been decorated with style, keeping in mind Antigua Guatemala's architecture. We loved its peaceful corridors, the always smiling employees, the rooms are greatly decorated and fully equipped with everything you could dream of. The bed is so comfortable!! And of course everything is impeccably... more
