The best hotel where we have been in Guatemala. The common areas and the rooms are extremely clean and super nicely set up, with all what you need, from fan to blanket. Dimensions of accommodation is also much better than average. Position is a bit outside the village but I loved it as it’s quiet and overlooking the lake. The staff went above and beyond. Always friendly, discreet but ready to help. we ordered dinner and got amazing food freshly cooked. A fab place where I’d love to stay again if I come back.

This is not something I did not like but simply something to know. There’s quite some stairs to get to the posada so be ready to carry up your luggage.

The room was fantastic, very nice, open, with a view on the lake! It was exactly as it looked on the pictures. A paradise! Everything was also super clean. The houses are located in a nice garden, where we even saw howler monkeys! Sanctus and Alida are super nice and took so good care of us! They also prepare nice meals, with a lot of care. We really felt welcome in Posada del Cerro. Sanctus also arranged a trip to Yaxchá, and a shuttle service to Rio Dulce at the end of our stay. We really loved staying in Posada del Cerro!

The place is away from the village in a lush greenery and we loved it! Service was super friendly and fast. They even helped us with the transfer to Tikal and back. Our double room was simple but big, with a big terrace with chairs and a hammock to relax and enjoy the greenery / to read etc. Bed was comfortable and had a decent mosquito net. They have a decent menu so we seldom ate breakfast there or had some drinks. The hotel is a walking distance from El Remate so we also walked to visit some restaurants or tienda for some snacks when we wanted to. My favourite thing for sure was the fact it's a little away and in the greenery, little hidden gem. Because it's close to the bioreserve, it was wonderful to hear the sounds of nature and especially have our first experience with howler monkeys howling 🙂 I would recommend it for sure.

Nothing to not like. I would only give one recommendation (it's a women thing though 😉) - the room could also have a small mirror. There was one in the bathroom but I wouldn't mind having one in the room as well 🥰

Posada del Cerro is an oasis. The grounds are beautiful, the buildings are unique and practically sculptural pieces of art, the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, and there is an onsite restaurant that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner just for guests. El Remate is a lovely town wrapped around the lake, and Posada del Cerro is at the quiet end but still within walking distance of the main center.

Nothing could have been better.

Located by the lake and in the greenery of trees and flowers, this accomodation is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the nature. Nearby docks allows you to soak the sunrise and sunset (even some rooms). It's 15 minutes walking from the centre of the village, 10 minutes from some good restaurants. Also the food is good in this accomodation. They can help you and arrange some transports or trip. Don't be fooled by Google maps, continue walking on main road until the sign for the hotel.

Clean, comfortable, very peaceful, staff were lovely, very safe, food and service were brilliant. The gentleman cooked us beautiful fresh soups and salads when we arrived. We also stayed at Alice's guesthouse for a few nights, which was fully booked but this place was empty, we don't know why!! Both are beautiful places but this is cheaper and the rooms are bigger and cooler, book here!! They deserve the business, Alices is v good too tho

No problems

We’ve been travelling in South and Central America for over five months now and Posada del Cerro is one of the nicest places we stayed at so far. The whole place is super lovely and quiet, nestled on a foresty hill and with a view of the lake from the common area and some bungalows. Our room was super clean and very cozy, with a comfortable bed, desk and chair, lots of light and space to put our belongings. The bathroom was also very nice, with a big shower, and warm water. We had a lovely welcome by Ricardo with Flor de Jamaica drinks and him and Irma were super attentive and helpful. You can order breakfast and dinner in advance and let Irma or Ricardo know when you would like to eat. It will be freshly prepared for you every day. Everything we ate was delicious. We would come again any time!

Location is great, staff was super friendly, attentive, professional... you name it...

Well... the beds where some sort of futon... very uncomfortable for all of us (5 people had the same opinion). And then... you should know that a family of howler monkeys live on the premises. They got into an argument at 2 am, which made for a rough night for all of us. As fascinating as that was, it would have been nice to get a little more sleep.

It's absolutely fantastic we booked 2 days but stayed 4 and didn't really want to go. The hotel is so beautiful, the rooms are perfect, comfortable and you have pricacy. Personel are really kind, funny, relaxed and helpful. They are happy to show you the animals who live close by.. The view over the lake is unbeatable. The area and the lake are clean, because of the awareness of the importance of the nature. Just visit, you will love it here! .

Because of the pandemic tourism is low, which has its effect. The hotel offers breakfast and lunch, but the kitchen is closed at night. But don't worry there are nice places within a few minutes.

The cabanas are in the jungle! Be prepared to see spidermonkeys during the day, butterflies, lizards and lots of more animals. The cabana is simple but spacious. You might share the cabana with some spiders! The location is great! Close to Tikal and easy to get there. The host will go out of his way to arrange everything for you
