Guatemala is a wonderful country full of stark contrasts and absolute beauty - we had an amazing trip and I would highly recommend it. I would not however recommend the Posada Belen. I did not find the warm welcoming place of other reviewers - I found a dark, somewhat dirty place in a horrible location. We expected the city to... more

First of all, let me preface this review by saying I had the most incredible trip to Guatemala.......until Posada Belen. Trip Advisor is usually spot on, but wrong in this hotel. The neighborhood is NOT safe, after 6pm EVERYTHING is closed up and the streets are desolate and deserted. You can NOT walk around there at night and there are... more

I recently led a group delegation (of 9 people) to Guatemala City and we stayed a full week at Posada Belen. The staff were fantastic. They were each friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable in many ways. They were flexible and understanding in the needs of a diverse group of visitors (including my toddler son who joined us for a few nights).... more

Based on all the great reviews of Posada Belen Museo, I made reservations online . Our shuttle driver that brought us from Antigua to Guatemala City acted like he couldn't find the hotel, even though I gave him the address. He then took us to another hotel. When I called Posada Belen to tell them why I did not show... more

Posada Belen Museum hotel is a real gem in Guatemala city. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The hotel is fascinating with its lovely decor and interesting museum artefacts. It also has its own restaurant and peaceful garden. Nilo and Juan made me feel very comfortable and as a solo female traveler I felt very safe here. The food... more

Belen is a nice place. Granted, you're in Guatemala City, Zone 1. But within that space you have a nice, funky, personable, safe, and responsive place to stay. Rooms are clean. There is hot water via the showerhead heater fixture. And the staff are very helpful. When i return to Guate, I will stay with them again. Oh, and don't... more

centrally located on a quite street. stayed for 1 night and really enjoyed it. the employees didn't speak that much english, but were very nice and helpful. when looking at the inn from the outside it looks nice, but you really can't tell whats behind the walls! once inside their is a nice entrance area, eating room and mini-courtyard with... more

We decided to stay there based on the reviews here on trip advisor. I gave it three stars but for some it really could be a four star experience. We stayed one night and were in Guate city for a quick trip to the American Embassy - so not really there for leisure. We are a family of four -... more

Three times I've visited Guatemala. From Livingston to Puerto Quetzal, from Totos Santos Cuchumatan to Esquipulas, I've enjoyed Moza, Gallo, Cabrio and aguardiente. But, I've always avoided the capital. Even though they have the four essential elixers of life just like the rest of the country. This last trip, however, I treated my lovely wife to two nights at the... more
