Nice grassy area to pitch your tent. Cold shower, but in this heat, who cares. Clean bathrooms and a restaurant where you can use the internet. Nice place if you just want to pitch a tent and get in to see the ruins early. Beware that tour bus groups come to have breakfast at 6am, so there is no hope... More

Probably the best place to stay if you want to experience the wisdom of the ancestral knowledge of Tikal's jungle and sacred Mayan ruins. It's only a minute away from the entrance of the Tikal National Park. The food is really good and the rooms are adorable, some even have hammocks. Electricity does not work after 9 pm, neither is...

We stayed at the Hotel Jaguar Inn at Tikal for two nights. The room was very pleasant and clean, however the food at the hotel restaurant was not great. Eat next door at the Hotel Tikal Inn, the food is amazing. There is also a lovely pool next door. Although the Hotel Jaguar Inn was fine, next time I would... More

We stayed for one night in November 2010. It was $64 for a double room, which they can only get away with because you have to spend the night to see the sunrise and there are only two other hotels in the park. It was fairly basic but we got a good's night rest and were able to enjoy both... More

I stayed for one night, April 4th with my 11 and 13 year olds in a triple room. First the positives: You are in the park and close to the entrance. The room was only $90. That about ends the positives. I told my kids that the room made a Motel 6 room look extravagant. I felt like i was... More

The accommodation for $50 a night was excellent. Modern, clean, stylish bathroom, hot water any time. Very comfortable. The annoying thing is the little survey they hand you in the restaurant. There is no check box for "speed of service" :-) The food is good (not great), the staff are friendly, but the service is SO SLOW.... I would definitely... More

For the price and location I was very impressed. It's not a 5 star property and is a bit rough around the edges but for the price, I found my room to be clean and well-appointed. I did not experience slow service in the restaurant at all during my 3 nights there, even when the place filled up with day... More

I have stayed at the Jaguar Inn many times as it is the least expensive of the three hotels at Tikal. Most recently, I was there in March 2012 leading a group of 20 university students. The hotel is charmingly rustic and clean. Wildlife is abundant and you may see monkeys, parrots, coatamundis, and others. You may get some insects... More

We stayed at the Jaguar Inn again at the end of February. I have stayed here many times and always had a great experience. The bungalow was just fine. The problem with this visit is that the restaurant meal service was painfully slow! After a unremarkable dinner after 2 hours, we opted to head down the road to eat at... More

The Jaguar Inn exterior is quite nice. A beautiful restaurant, great looking grounds, and the bungalows look nice. But inside the bungalow (we had Bung. 10) was a different story. The sheets felt dirty, the towels were worn and theadbare, and the walls had grime and fingerprints everywhere, and the ceiling fan wobbled and squeaked non-stop. The room just felt... More

First of all, thank you for the candid comments. We love to hear from people as it the quickest way to learn and improve what we do. We will look into the issue of sheets and towels, this is not acceptable service for us. Nor is it acceptable for us that the staff were not on their best behaviour. And... More
