Stayed in a private room with bathroom that also had its own private balcony with a couch. Fortunately this room was quite far from the bar area, as the bar can be noisy until after 1am. The location of the hostel is stunning. The breakfasts were excellent. Only ate dinner once there, but it was also very good and it... More

I spent 4 days at Zaphyr lodge while visiting Sumec Champey and it was one of my favorite trips in Guatemala. The hostel is comfortable, has great food, is very social, and has a gorgeous view of the mountains and river. They also organize trips to Sumec Champey and offer tubing as well. I'd definitely return

We had a great time at Zephyr, but be aware of a few things: -The reservation systems seems fairly loose. We booked ahead by phone, but when we arrived our private room for 150Q was not available, only a room for 250Q. Hmm... Not much you can do when it's dark out, you've just been on a bus for 9...

We stayed at Zephyr for 3 nights and had a great time. The hostel is pushed back a bit from the town, giving it 360 degree views of beautiful landscape. We stayed in a private room which was clean and had an amazing private balcony with a view. The staff was friendly and engaged and the tour guide that we... More

The Zephyr lodge has some of the best views I've seen in a hostel and is in an idyllic area in Guatemala. BUT......... *every evening they encourage raucous drinking and the music shuts off when the last person falls of there stall...usually 2-3am and not the 1am they tell you. Seriously unless you are a very heavy sleeper you will... More

Overall we really enjoyed our 1 night. We had dorm beds near the bathroom / main lounge area. Definite party scene after dinner til 1/2am. Beds are futon mattresses and are hard as a rock. That and the hottest night ever..was not a good night sleep. Views were amazing, nice river dip with locals, and they have family style dinners.... More

The staff was great and helpful. Good location and the view is amazing. Best showers in central America with a magnificent view! One bad thing, the food could be better, but at the bbq nights the food is perfect. This is a party party hostel so if you wanna be by yourself, have some quiet time ore go to bed... More

This Feb we spent 3 days in the Zephyr Lodge. We chose it based on recommendations from another travelers and we couldn’t choose better. After surviving a bumpy road to get there, you are almost in the middle of nowhere looking at one of the most beautiful nature sceneries you can see in Guatemala. Rooms are clean, food is great,...
