Fodor's Expert Review Posada Belén

13 Calle A 10-30, Guatemala City, Departamento de Guatemala, Guatemala Fodor's Choice

This little jewel of an inn on a quiet side street is exceptional, thanks to the couple that runs it. Built in 1873, the family's former home has been renovated just enough to combine quirky Old World charm with basic comforts. Rooms have tile floors, handwoven bedspreads, and walls decorated with Guatemalan paintings and weavings. Turtles roam the tiny garden, and a small but impressive collection of Mayan artifacts graces the dining room, where meals are served family style. The owners are also a great source of information about the city.

PROS

  • knowledgeable staff, pretty garden, quiet street

CONS

  • some noise from courtyard, several blocks from the Plaza Mayor
