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.
