We enjoyed our stay at El Carmen Suites. We were welcome with a refreshing drink-which is a nice touch. The room is spacious, clean and the staff is friendly, welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and you have so many options. The view from the terrace is spectacular! We witness the volcano Fuego erupting. The lush greenery is beautiful. The room gets stuffy so a fan definitely helps. Some guests kept their doors open since it gets so hot in the room. If you ask, the staff will gladly get you a fan. The only issue is a foul smell that comes from the septic system at certain times of the day but since we mostly spent the day out it was not an issue but we did notice it when we return to the room. Overall, great price, location and service. I would definitely recommend.

This property was beautiful period the room is really accommodated. A family of 4 period it was spacious. Everyone had room for their belongings period we did not feel cramped at all period the bathroom was also very big and spacious. Appreciated the convenience of the hot and cold water at this location. Period the staff was also very kind and always helpful period the breakfast area where they serve also dinner was beautiful and had amazing views period the way that breakfast is included really was helpful and the food selection was had a wide variety. Period uh, we did walk to several shops outside of the hotel period he could really find anything in in that location period Landmarks that we went to go see or within walk range, and it didn't take as long to get there period we really enjoyed our stay here and we'll book again in the future. Period we'll also be recommending this location to family and friends
