I stayed at Hotel Los Nazarenos for two nights; it was my second time in Antigua. The location is excellent, near La Merced. Close to some great bars and restaurants. I stayed on the exact opposite side of town the first time i was in Antigua and found Hotel Los Nazarenos' location to be superior. The rooms are clean and my bed was comfortable. Each have their own bathroom, with hot water shower with good pressure. The hotel itself is very unique, with antique, shabby chique furniture throughout, and handcrafted wooden furniture by local artisans in the rooms. The hotel surrounds an open courtyard which gives it natural sunlight and there's also a roof deck. The owner (Roberto) and his wife are extremely nice and helpful. When you consider all of these pros and the fact that it's around $20 a night to stay there, you're looking at one of Antigua's best values for accommodation. I recommend it.

We had been staying at the MUCH nicer Casa Cristina next door. Unfortunately, they were booked for the two extra nights we decided to stay in Antigua, so our options were limited. From the entrance, this hotel seemed on par with Casa Cristina, and as it was the same price, we assumed it would be comparable. Our mistake. It wasn't anything like Casa Cristina. The rooms were disgusting--moldy ceilings with paint chipping off, moldy bathrooms that looked like they never bothered to clean them from the previous guests. We stayed in two different rooms, too--and both were equally disgusting. The sheets smelled moldy, too. The staff there was creepy, too. We really did not like this place!

Do yourself a favor and try Casa Cristina next door where the rooms were clean and tidy and where the duena, Rosario was warm and welcoming--or find another location.

this place should be your choice of last resort in antigua. moldy, with peeling paint and and an overall down-at-the-heal feel to it, you might do better at an upscale hostel.

Hotel Los Nazarenos is an ideal place to stay in the center of Antigua, just 2 minutes away from the church La Merced y 5 minutes from the Arco. Very friendly stuff, clean rooms, cosy excelent beds, hot water showers, fresh towels every day and fresh bed linen every second day.
