we felt very welcome at the entrance and finally relaxed once the staff at the front desk greeted. The lobby is vey warm but once you enter into the dinning room and look into the garden and find the Agua Volcano right in front of you...it is inspiring. Rooms are confortable, there is nothing in them that is missing really.... more

PORTA HOTEL ANTIGUA is a large, well known hotel from Antigua Guatemala located at about 7 blocks away from the plaza. It has been divided into 3 sections but they are all equally charming, cozy and nicely decorated. The food is great, the pool is large and the prices are reasonable.

Finding a hotel in Antigua on less than two week notice is never fun, but we lucked out with this one. My wife and I were adopting from an orphanage in Antigua and wanted a decent place to stay, and to calm for such an important event. We were not disappointed. The last time we were in Antigua, we tried... more

Porta Antigua Hotel is centrally located and covers over an acre of property offering various room types. Originally assigned a Premium Room, modern, wood floors, fireplace, lovely ammenties.

Everything is spotless and the grounds are adorned with tropical plants, little fountains, cozy sitting places and a perfect view of Aqua Volcano. If you have children or are traveling with a... more

We had a large set of rooms in the hotels new annex, and though being apart from the main building had its negatives, the beautiful rooms and ambiance made up for it. The rooms were sizable, decorated with lovely style, and each had its own fireplace. The only negative about the rooms--they got stuffy when the windows are closed, which... more

We stayed in the newest addition and inspite of a little construction noise in the daytime, it was charming and pleasant. Very private, lovely small pool in the new addition. more

This hotel was a hidden treasure. As you approach the walls of the hotel it appears to be nothing special, but once on the grounds I was in awe of the beauty. The rooms were very clean and nicely furnished with a fire place. My favorite thing about the room was the heavy warm blanket you will find in the... more
