This very basic hotel had no air conditioning in the rooms which were unbearably hot preventing any sleep. In fact it was hotter inside the rooms than outside. Service in the restaurant had two speeds – slow and slower. We only ate there for breakfast. The gardens were beautiful and well maintained.

This hotel is about a 10 minute walk from the main square where most of the restaurants shops etc can be found, although there are some hotels closer. The rooms here are set around a garden and are very comfortable, with a good bathroom. We stayed in 4 hotels in Guatemala and this was the only one where we had... More

We had 2 nights at Las Farolas - our room was in the back wing, looking out on the lush gardens. It's a very pleasant well run hotel, well equipped rooms, friendly staff, good breakfasts in the restaurant, while a little way out of town, about 4 blocks walk.

Las Farolas provides comfortable rooms in the peaceful surroundings of a former coffee plantation, a 10-minute walk from the central plaza of Antigua, Guatemala. Its location is not on a main street--making it much quieter than some of the other hotels in high-traffic neighborhoods--but asking for a room NOT facing the street will better allow you to enjoy the tranquil...

The hotel is beautiful but the rooms are hot and noisy. There are other hotels that are just as convenient and you will get a better nights sleep.

I stayed five nights at Las Farolas in February 2012 for a business meeting. The hotel and restaurant staff was courteous and efficient. The room was comfortable--good bed, plenty of pillows, lots of hot water, and everything just "worked". My room was near the back of the hotel and was extremely quiet. The hotel grounds contain a lush, tropical garden.... More

Las Farolas is located about 5 blocks from the central park. That's probably good to get some distance from all the downtown activity and noise. The rooms are large. Hot water is abundant. There is no air conditioning as La Antigua is/was considered relatively cool until recent years with a warming climate. There is no flow-through ventilation in the rooms,... More
