Lots of charm and character
Wonderful place to stay in the historic district. If you like small hotels that feel homey and with lots of character, then you will like this one. Wonderful courtyard and rooftop patio. Great location within walking distance to many sites. Wonderful and helpful owners who clearly work hard to ensure their guests have a good stay.

Luis runs this small hotel in the charming home his grandparents bought in 1910. Staying there felt like a more authentic way to experience Guatemala than in a chain hotel, and Luis is a kind, friendly, helpful gentleman.

Area around Casa Jocotenango was safe and clean. The problem I experienced was the opening of their security door since the manager was responsible to use his cell phone to open it but apparently sometimes he would not "hear" or checked his phone, so I'd to wait.

Hotel familiar
Es un hotel cómodo si se viaja con niños, pero en nuestro caso que éramos jovenes es mejor ir a un hostel. Si quieres salir tarde el portero se duerme a las 10pm y no abre luego de esa hora.

Location is walking distance to city square and central market and other eateries and businesses. Owner was very accommodating and helpful. we arrived 630 am and since a room was available, he allowed us to check in. He also gave us suggestions on where to eat and places to see. The only problem was the slow drainage in the shower.

La propiedad está ubicada en un lugar céntrico, cerca de un Jazz Bar y del Centro Histórico de la ciudad. Además es un hotel con personalidad, con muchos detalles coloniales que lo hacen único. La atención es personalizada, brindada por los dueños del Hotel, muy educados, atentos y agradables los dos. Bar muy bien surtido y las mejores micheladas de la ciudad. Una experiencia inolvidable.

Un hotel muy lindo y pintoresco. La atención del propietario y su hijo es muy buena, con mucha disposición para dar sugerencias. La habitación muy amplia y el baño también. Cuenta con una terraza desde la que se ve parte de la ciudad. Si vuelvo a regresar a Guatemala me vuelvo a hospedar aquí.
