This hotel was wonderful! We stayed in a triple room in the new annex with five people. Great shower that was huge! It's in a great location not too far from the indigenous markets and only a few blocks from the square. On Saturday night the band on the street was a little loud, but they were gone early and... more

This hotel has great local flavor being a convent built in the 1600's. The rooms are huge and the staff is delightful. The central fountain is beautiful and many of our group had pictures there. The beds were comfortable and despite the comments about the bells, they did not bother me at all. We had a room in the center... more

I have booked many hotels for our group of 40+ medical personnel in Antigua. Most have been good experiences. But Hotel Convento is by far the best and we now consider it our group's HOME, reserving rooms many times a year. The management is very responsive to our needs and makes an extraordinary effort to accommodate unusual requests. This "old... more

I should have paid heed to the low rating on Trip Advisor, but I had a good rate at Convento Santa Catalina and decided the location was good. While it is across the street from Frida's in reality the location is horrible. The church bell rings loudly every 30 minutes and a good night sleep is impossible! I would never... more

...unless I was willing to pay $300 a night to book at the 5-star Casa Santo Domingo. My husband and I stayed at the Convento a total of five nights in two rooms in the old section of the hotel because we left for three nights to go to Lake Atitlan. Considering that this part of the hotel was constructed... more

We stayed (thankfully) one night in this hotel, and I would not recommend it to anyone. We stayed in the new annex, and if your taste runs to crummy, ratty, semi-clean motel rooms with no charm or character at all, this is the place for you. An added bonus is the disco next door that pounds until 1 a.m., and... more

We stayed here because the hotels of our choice were unavailable but we didn't regret it. The location is the best, being under the famous arch that's part of this ex-convent hotel, a very nice 17th century building. The rooms are fairly large with a smallish bathroom but the shower section was larger than usual. We chose a room in... more

I stayed with my wife last August a couple of days and we loved it. We stayed in one of the old style rooms that was quite big with high ceilings and a big window facing the cloister. They took in charge of the transit from the airport to Antigua. The staff were really friendly. more

I stayed a week in this hotel with my two children. They loved it the minute they saw it and when we moved into our room we were not disappointed. We had a large room with 3 beds and a view of the courtyard. The service at the hotel was excellent. Everyone on staff was friendly and helpful. My daughters... more
