Despite it being a bit of a walk from most restaurants and attractions, everything else about this hotel is perfect. Beautifully appointed rooms, a charming courtyard, a stunning rooftop terrace, friendly staff and very clean. The breakast is excellent. We have already booked another stay.

Small, quiet hotel just a few blocks from the main part of town. Helpful staff, good feeling, great rooftop garden with views, lovely courtyard, adequate amenities. Breakfast from 7:30 includes eggs made to order.

The hotel is quietly located about 10 minutes walk from the centre of town but tuk-tuks are easy to find and cheap Staff are friendly and helpful and the hotel is very well-run with a good atmosphere. It is built on two levels around a courtyard with fountains and greenery and a roof terrace above. The smallish standard rooms are... More

The hotel is safe, clean and has friendly service. It's a little far from the downtown, but this facilitated a quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Hotel is close to laundry facilities and convenience stores. Kitchen stuff gladly accommodated a vegetarian breakfast.

Such a quaint hotel away (but not too far) from all that you want to see in Antigua. I would be sure to know exactly where you are going and how to get there as the shuttle van and at least one tuktuk had no idea. Loved the courtyard and upper deck.

This hotel took 7 years to build. Small with a courtyard, 10 minutes walk from the main square, the hotel serves a continental breakfast. Not very big rooms but very confortable. I also didn't miss the fact they have no air conditionning or fan.

I have stayed at Hotel Candelaria several times over the last couple of years. The charm is never compromised, and the staff are always ready to serve and greet with a smile. The rooms are always clean, and Rodolfo, the manager, is always at our service. They go above and beyond to accomodate people. Candelaria is our home away from... More

I had the privilege of spending a little over 2 weeks at this hotel. The rooms are very clean with hand carved furniture, and accomodations that surpass any expectations.
