This hotel was certainly one of the best experiences I have had in a long time. I have traveled world-wide and the service in this small, peaceful, and beautiful hotel can compare with any hotel in the large resorts in any country. I highly recommend it. The service was exceptional.

Very large spacious rooms and the grounds were beautiful. The negative would be that it's a smaller hotel (only ~20 rooms) and the restaurant often feels empty and doesn't offer fast/light menu options like a sandwich. The nearest restaurant was a 15 min walk.

Gringos beware.

Beautiful hotel. Great garden. Super atmosphere. A dream come true ? Almost, were it not for 1. at check-out time no staff speaking English was available to clarify issues with bill 2. two unmarked steps in the main room which easily can lead to injuries due to falls in an unfamiliar dark room However, would I stay again ? YES

Better than Home

Everything about this hotel stay is superb. The location (although not downtown, is better as it is very quiet) and a 15 minute walk or a very short (US$3.00) taxi ride to the hustle and bustle of the center of San Cristobal. The hotel is beautiful, the grounds are lush and the staff is excellent. I give this hotel an A+. I would not change a thing about this hotel.

Falta de mantenimiento en la calefacción

La habitación en cuestión de limpieza bien, pero hacía frío y la calefacción nunca funcionó aún cuando diariamente decían que la estaban checando. La chimenea solo la prendí para probarla pero olía mucho a gas por mala combustión y tampoco la pudieron arreglar. El gerente nunca apareció para hacerle los comentarios.

The place Is really beautiful, the gardens aré a dream and the rooms aré great... Little details with maintenance, but nothing that could cause the guest to feel uncomfortable, however the whole experience would be a 10 if It weren't for that.
