San Rafael Hotel  

In the heart of Antigua Guatemala — a boutique colonial hideaway steps from Santa Catalina Arch and the Nim Po't Traditional Textiles Center. You’re a short walk (about 5 minutes) from La Merced Church, Central Park and Antigua Guatemala Cathedral, with the Choco Museum nearby.

A recently restored colonial home with brick, stone and stucco, antique tile roofs, two courtyards and three water features (including a dramatic wall fountain). The hotel’s seven individually decorated guestrooms feature fireplaces, pillowtop beds with down comforters, LED TVs, safes and complimentary bottled water. Lounges and a lofty dining room provide a cozy spot to sip wine or sit by a roaring fire.

Treatments include massages and facials at the on-site spa; communal living rooms, furnished patio and garden courtyards with fountains set the scene. Complimentary wireless internet, 24-hour front desk and multilingual staff keep things easy. Other conveniences: laundry, parking, a tour desk and a roundtrip airport shuttle available for a surcharge. Wake up to courtyard fountains and an included cooked-to-order breakfast.

Complimentary high-speed internet (wired and wireless) and express check-in help keep you productive. The front desk is open 24 hours and staff assist with concierge services, tour bookings and local reservations.

A complimentary cooked-to-order breakfast is served each morning (typically 7:00–10:30), with self-serve coffee and tea available in the courtyard. There’s a bar/lounge and snack bar/deli on-site, plus 24-hour room service for late-night cravings and light local cuisine options.
