Guest Reviews
- Belinda (10/5): - Very convenient
- Raul (10/5): - Buen lugar, amables los encargados
- Luis (2/5): - No like
- Eduardo (10/5): - Good
- Jimmy (6/5): - Todo esta bien, excepto la falta de Higiene.
- Jad (2/5): - Je suis arrivé avec ma réservation déjà payée, l’hôtel avait donné ma chambre à quelqu’un d’autre et n’avait aucune solution à me proposer. C’est inadmissible
- Verified traveler (6/5): El precio era bajo, pero pudo ser mejor. - Positivo: El encargado fue muy amable. Negativo: - El ingreso fue hasta las 4:30pm y no 11:30am como decía hotels.com. - La habitación estaba bien, pero la única ventana estaba en el baño. - No nos dieron jabón o shampú. - La ducha estaba en el mismo espacio que el inodoro (lo cual hacía que se mojara todo después de ducharse).
- andres (2/5): Stay at your own risk! - When a serious problem emerged, no one at Hotel Histórico took responsibility. No hotel management available. There is no visible sign on the street to indicate that this is a hotel. Stay at your own risk!
- Sofia (2/5): - Fui y salía q no tenía ninguna reservación y pagué x adelantado
- Verified traveler (2/5): - I was killed 20 cacuracha really creepy
- Warner (2/5): - Me cambiaron de hotel y me dieron uno en demasiadas malas condiciones por lo cual no me pude quedar en ese hotel tuve que ir q pagar otro lo cual me genero un gasto extra, tengo los chats donde me cambiaron
- sunggu (10/5): - 가까운 레스토랑이 싸고 맛있습니다 6시부터 4시까지 밖에 안하지만은 그이후에는 다른 곳도 좋기때문에 호텔도 가장싸고 재미있는 케이블티비가 나와서 시간가는줄모름
- Yahaira (2/5): - No se sabe si la dirección está correcta, el lugar donde nos mandaron y nunca nos abrieron, necesitamos nuestro reembolso
- Ana (2/5): - EXPERIENCE EPPOUVENTABLE….N’ALLEZ PAS LÀ ILS SONT DES VRAIS VOLEURS…..ONT ANNULÉE MA RESERVATION ET REFUSENT DE ME REMBOURSER
- Oscar (6/5): - The place is not easy to find because it does not have an exact address on the map and they do not have a sign
- William (2/5): - Where to start with this hotel experience... Our bus was delayed into Guatemala City which meant we didn't arrive at the hotel until 10pm. Luckily our taxi driver hung around and helped us find this place. There is nothing on the front of the building which identifies it as a hotel. Secondly, once they answered the doorbell they said they were full. Luckily after showing a reservation they invited us in whilst they made some calls. With 15 minutes we were being whisked away in a car to another hotel. So credit where credits due they did sort it out and ending up in the same hotel chain but closer to the historic centre. However, luckily it was late and after a near 12 hour bus we didnt care too much where we were because the room was very poor and only provided a fleece blanket as a sheet... It makes my skin crawl thinkong about it. Finally, we had a bit of time before our next transfer so we wanted to explore the city but unfortunately we werent allowed to leave our bags! Wbich really was the cherry on the cake.
- Lidier (6/5): - Cencillo pero tranquilo me gusto
- Jose (2/5): - Que mala experiencia en ese lugar las camas se están quebrando etc etc etc horrible experiencia no lo recomiendo lo muestran bonito en el internet pero la realidad es otra .😡
- Dora (2/5): - I didn't like nothing
- LIDIA (2/5): - Estancias malolientes, lugubres, sucias, llenas de cucarachas. en mal estado. Ropa de cama para llorar. Me gano el asco, y tuve que salirme a buscar otro espacio.. no permaneci en el lugar lo que esperaba. Lo que si uno de los vigilantes, recepcionistas y mil usos era algo amable.
- Britney (2/5): - The cleanliness of this place was zero to none. Pretty sure the tub had not been cleaned in weeks if not months. There was rubbish and hair in the tub from the previous guests. On top of that the shower head had some sketchy power running to it that actually shocked us during a shower. The location was great and close to town but we would never stay there again. Management had zero information about the area. And above all they charged us extra because apparently "Expedia" only charged for 1 person not 2 in the one room. Would not recommend this place. Save yourselves the trouble and spend a little more cuz cheap isn't worth it here.
- RODOLFO (8/5): - El costo beneficio es aceptable. Personal amable. Lo único que me pasó fue que me pidieron hacer la salida a las 10 am aunque en la reservación se me indicó que era 11am
- Edwin (8/5): - Muy buena
- Philip (2/5): - When i got there they said they were full and wouldnt let me in
- Yolanda (10/5): - Bastante céntrico y acogedor
- Aser (2/5): Irresponsible a**holes - I was in contact with the hotel the whole day. I arrived in the afternoon to the city and told the hotel that I am hungry will go find something to eat and then go to the hotel. They confirmed. I went to the hotel first the sign says another name. Second after waiting half an hour outside this guy comes out and speaks to the taxi telling him they are fully booked!!! At 7 pm in the night I was left with no place to go.
- Angelina (2/5): - DO NOT GO TO THIS “HOTEL”. We arrived at the location and address provided by Expedia, the location was the correct hotel that we booked as it was the same location as the pictures provided. Once we arrived, the front desk guy immediately left the room and hopped on call. He came back and said we were at the wrong location and that he was going to drive us to the “right” location that was 8 blocks away. Even though we showed him where Expedia told us to go and that the pictures and name of the hotel matched up, he insisted that we were at the wrong location. This location was well over 30 blocks away and in a terrible neighborhood. We walked in “Hotel Malybu”, and the hotel was super run down and the people staying and working there just gave us an extremely unsettling vibe. We voiced our concerns that we were certainly not the hotel we booked and the front desk guy kept talking to us like we were stupid (typical scammers). He told us that Expedia still needs to update the pictures and location (like what?). However I read a review from 2018 and they experienced the same thing. This was a TOTAL SCAM. I have traveled to so many countries as a backpacker and have never experienced a scam like this. DO NOT TRUST THEM. In order to stay safe and avoid further confrontation, we accepted the room he gave us after, stayed in it for about 10 minutes to call Expedia about it, and immediately left. We never gave them any attitude about it in order to stay safe.
- jose luis rojas (6/5): -
- Jorge (10/5): - very nice home that has been turned into a hotel with private bedrooms. Staff is always on site.
- Juan Gutierrez (2/5): - Desorden, música alto volumen, asadores de carnes por todo lado. No parece un hotel. Tuvimos que irnos a otro lugar
- Vincent (4/5): - Rien n'était propre, il y avait de la poussière des clinex partout sous mon lit. Ma chambre était située juste à de la "réception " j'ai été réveillé à 6 heure du matin par le personnel qui parlait trop fort.. Très mauvaise expérience.
- Brianna (2/5): - Me dijeron que no había reservación en mi nombre y intentaron llevarme a locación diferente a hotel que es “tan nuevo que no está en google” muy malas vibras

- Naomi (2/5): Bed Bugs! - This property is located in Zone 1 which is the historic district of Guatemala but not close enough to easily walk to see the strip where all the buildings are. BED BUGS! The owner is super nice and when we showed them to him he acted as if they were always there and normal but agreed to move us to a hostel. I would not recommend this to any traveler as who wants bed bugs brought home with them?!?!
- Maria Del Carmen (2/5): Muy Insatisfechos. - Estimados señores en mi opinión no se Cómo le pueden llamar a ese lugar Hotel. Ni siquiera sabían que teníamos una reservación y es un lugar demasiado sucio e incomodo. La verdad que de hotel no tiene nada. Lastimosamente no tomamos fotografías. Si me consejo les vale no propongan este lugar.
- PQ (2/5): - Did not stay at Hotel Colonial Maya, was not as advertised. Very dirty and noisy place. We took some pictures in case you need them as reference. Had taxi driver take us to different Hotel Sincerly, Peter Keller
- Verified traveler (4/5): - 空港から、タクシーで向かいましたが、ホテルの看板が無く、タクシーの運転手さんが電話して下さって、ようやく、そこがそのホテルだとわかりました。（一見､ただの家です）バストイレは共同です。
- Elisa (2/5): - It's not worth staying . Unsanitary. Small. No private bathroom.
