When I first visited Antigua in the 1980's, I vowed I would return one day to stay at the (then called) Hotel Antigua. I finally did last weekend and it did not disappoint. The room was quiet as a tomb, roomy with a huge bathroom, plenty of hot water and great water pressure (not always available in other hotels in... More

Amongst the gardens, ruins, Spanish schools and hip little cafes and bars of charming Antigua is the reknowned and spacious Porta Antigua Hotel. This firmly-established hotel, once known as the Hotel Antigua, is the perfect spot to stay when visiting this charming city. The hotel is modern and comfortable, yet retains the traditional Spanish Baroque themes that are central to... More

Antigua is a city that tries to keep an authentic Spanish Colonial look. The hotel does a great job of that while still providing modern luxury. The staff, food, look, decore, service, and pool are all very high quality. It is also very conveniently located to the main sites.

We very much enjoyed our two nights stay in Antigua. Neat city which is very traveler freindly. More English speakers than other areas of Guatemala. Many street vendors and market atmosphere with lot of people offering to sell you a good deal. The hotel is a bit deceptive from the outside like much of Anigua. Once you get into the... More

Porta Hotel is an excellent four star hotel and spa that is well-laid out and competently managed. It is favored by Spanish speaking guests although the staff is bilingual. My only complaint with the hotel is that it allows the property to be used by day visitors so there are an inordinate number of people on the weekends, very quiet... More

Bathroom was very, very nice with nice amenities, towels and hair dryer. We initially were in a room that had no air conditioner. This room was at the end of a whole line... More

Hotel is just s short walk to city center. Hotel much larger than first appears. We stayed in a room near the lap pool and was very quiet. Other rooms are more convenient to big pool but noisier. Restaurant very good. Entire complex had been private home many, many years ago. Our room had a very high ceiling, fire place,... More

I stayed for a work trip in Mid March. The property is beautiful, with a colonial, rustic design and beautiful gardens and landscaping. The only reason I am not rating it as excellent is because I had trouble with the wifi in my room, and basically had to connect from the lobby and this was a bit inconvenient, The breakfast... More

WOW... We loved this hotel. We stayed at Porta Lago, (by Lake Atitlan) so when we saw Porta Antigua we decided to book a room. The grounds are so very pretty, our room was cozy and the staff were AMAZING!! We had planned to spend two nights in Antigua and five at Lake Atitlan, but we decided to leave the... More
