Hotel La Catedral

We were very happy with our 4-night stay here. Arrived late in the evening via our own arranged transportation and we were checked into a modest size sleeping room, we did not complain. The next day, the manager offered us a larger room that was available and it honestly made our stay so much more enjoyable, thank you. They have a charming courtyard full of furniture, flowers and lap blankets and the decor is reminiscent of the cathedral name. Coffee is on early in the morning and the staff is bustling to put out cushions on the rooftop chairs for your personal comfort. There are many choices for breakfast and they will also accommodate changes whenever possible. Only a block from the main square, you can spend leisurely evenings there or walk to any restaurants, excursions, etc. I purposely picked this over the town's 5-star hotel due to it's location and personal expression...I'm glad I did. BTW, the hostel next door stops the partying at 10 pm promptly so it's not a problem. Enjoy!

Fantastic complimentary breakfast! So fresh so delicious! The staff were very nice and helpful. They all spoke English too which made me feel less embarrassed about my broken Spanish.

Great hotel, a bit noisy since it’s a block away from main square, but other than that, great breakfast, staff super friendly and walkable to all main attractions.

The hotel is in a very good location and our room was very quiet. The little courtyard is lovely.

Our room had no natural light at all, there is no window and it's completely dark. The bathroom had a strange smell. We were only given two small towels and the hot water was not running long enough.

Great location, friendly and very helpful staff.

This hotel is really, really nice yet very deceiving. The front entrance is nothing fancy and you would miss it if you blinked. Once inside, however, there is a tropical oasis. There are beautiful gardens that are meticulously maintained in the center of the entire complex. There is a very nice breakfast area in this tropical paradise and the food was made fresh to order. Also, there is a rooftop patio where you can read and have a refreshing drink. The property is very close to the town square and right in the center of the action. The manager Paulo was an excellent host and spoke very good English. He was so helpful that I actually thought he was the owner. The desk person, Kevin, was super-helpful and took care of everything for me.

The property is on the intersection of two main streets and the rooms are at ground level. Although it did not hinder me, and I am a very, very, light sleeper, you sometimes can hear loud groups and those stupid obnoxiously loud scooters. I would think that all properties in Antigua have this problem. Also, if you are a 4-Seasons or Ritz Carlton person you might not like the decor of the rooms. Although they are very clean, they are decorated in a sort of old world Spanish look. They are definitely not modern. For me, however, I liked the charm and loved my stay.

Great location and very traditional and cozy property. All the staff were excellent except for the main guy at reception who checked us in
