I traveled last summer with a mission group, my first time. Because I have stayed in many motel chains in the US, I had mediocre expectations of my accommodations. Radolpho and his great staff went way beyond what is generally expected by Americans. I felt like I was a guest in his home rather than a customer. I have never... More

It appeared that there was a big group that went to a wedding and our room was not situated very good so we woke up when they... More

I stayed here with a large group in 2007 for two nights. The rooms were nicely situated and clean (although we did have one person, out of a group of 20, report bed bugs). Location is great and they have a nice courtyard. Reception staff were friendly and got us checked in/out on time. This definitely isn't anything luxurious, but... More

We saw website and had high expectations. We arrived to a small patio, filled with suitcases and rucksacks. The unfriendly receptionist said we could not book into our room as it was not ready. When we did finally have access, the room was dark, cramped and not especially clean. The hotel is a long walk from the centre of Antigua... More

Thank you for taking the time and write a review. Check-in time is at 3pm. You came before and did not accept the available room at the moment. We understand it is a curvy road one hour trip to Antigua and you were tired and unwilling to hear the front desk. Same day cancellation policies are accepted at reservation moment.... More

I started here with three friends last April. I had done alot of research on hotels in Antigua. I decided on this hotel after reading the reviews plus they responded very quickly by email about the arrangements. From being pickup at the airport to the welcoming at the front desk it only got better from there. We were a group... More

The Candelaria is a lovely, old-style posada with courtyard, fountain, wooden beams, colorful textiles and fresh Guatemalan coffee for visitors in the lobby. The staff was extremely hospitable and was eager to help. They were genuinely nice people who enjoyed associating with guests and helping them with every issue specially Moises. The common areas and the rooms were immaculate .... More

We have just come back from Antigua after spending a well deserved vacation. Hotel Candelaria was the perfect retreat, quiet and out of the centre of town, but all the "in" places in town were easily accesible via the colorful Tuk Tuk's (motorized taxis-Q15 each trip anywhere in Antigua (about $1.80)). Sitting on the roof top terrace watching a volcano... More

Stayed for a week at Candelaria with a mission group in December, 2008. Other than being a fairly long walk from the main attractions of Antigua, the hotel is perfect. All rooms open onto a lush interior courtyard and the rooftop terrace offers great views of both Agua and Fuego volcanos. The staff is great, Rudolfo, the owner, seems to... More
