“An oasis in a busy city”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

people found this review helpful

I came to Antigua Guatemala to find an apartment while i study spanish. A friend made reservations at a hotel by the name of Meson de Valle. It is a boutique hotel located on the famous "Arch Street" which is 5th avenue. The hotel is located within walking distance to many restaurants, night life and points of historical note. The staff is very friendly and courteous and they went above and beyond to make my stay as comfortable as possible. I have stayed at hotels in Antigua Guatemala before and normally the only hot water is in the shower and that is tepid at best. But at this hotel they have hot water in the sink and in the shower. When i say hot i mean HOT and the pressure is great, which is uncommon in Guatemala. Coffee and hot water were available at all hours of the day and night. The room was very clean and the mattress on the bed was like "Heaven" So if you are traveling through Antigua Guatemala and need an OASIS, visit Meson de Valle. Also when i travel i look for places with in room internet and they have that at this hotel.

We celebrated our engagement in the hotel. The hotel is very cosy and private, makes you feel like home. Had a delicious breakfast by the garden and sat outside with the laptop to relax.
It's a great choice for couple's getaways.

“Perfect place and location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 January 2012

The hotel is located in a very quiet place and 3 blocks away from the central park. The rooms are very good and clean, has a shower and jettub. Breakfast included but the cook is not always on the hotel ( at least for our stay), so you have to set it the night before when you want the breakfast so the cook can come. The breakfast was very typical and delicious and a good amount.

“Great Place!”

On a recent visit to Guatemala, I stayed at the Hotel Meson del Valle in Antigua. I have visited Antigua, on many occasions, and this is the best hotel in the city I have ever had the pleasure of staying in. The hotel is located just a block and half from the park, and there were beautiful views of both the Arch and the volcano as I stepped outside my hotel room door. The rooms were nicely furnished, and the gardens were breathtaking. I was told the hotel was under new ownership and the staff and new owner were friendly, helpful, and cordial. I could not have asked for a better experience. I give it my highest recommendation.

“Basic hotel with good location and great service”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 November 2011 via mobile

person found this review helpful

This is a very small hotel with a cute garden and a very good location to be able to walk around Antigua. It is only three blocks away from the park in the center of town.
The rooms are basic and clean, but really dark and humid. Our room had a very strong smell of humidity. They gave us a dehumidifier to make it better.
The place is run by a few young women who were very helpful and eager to please us with breakfast and other arrangements.
I'm not sure about the value because we didn't look at any other hotels, but I wouldn't have paid any more than we did ($80/night for 2 people, breakfast included) for this place.

Darryl Hicks, Owner at Hotel Meson del Valle, responded to this review
15 November 2011
We appreciate any reviews, but would perfer fair reviews. This couple was correct on us being a small hotel with "helpful and eager to please service". However, when they call (a large suite room with queen size bed, separate sitting area, flat screen TV & a bathroom with a 2 person corner jacuzzi tub and separate shower), a basic room, they could not be further from the truth. For a normal or basic room in Antigua Guatemala, you get a single or double bed, no TV, no sitting area, and sometimes shared bath. We, at Hotel Meson del Valle, offer excellent value for the way above average room types & service. During the rainy season, most of Antigua is very humid, including hotel rooms, and this guest's stay was right at the end of the rainy season. I feel we did a good job of accomodating them by giving them a dehumidifier. Most hotels would not even have this, but we try to give a better service than most. I am sorry this guest did not feel great about our hotel, but I hope they maybe return to Antigua during the dry season.
