Best Hotels near Tikal Visitor Center, Tikal

A very nice jungle hotel, built in 1956. The service was very good, and the English was good. The front desk gave us a free upgrade. The rooms are large and clean and there is free wifi in the lobby and pool. The hotel is in the ticket gate of Tikal Park, so the next morning, watching the sunrise and wearing the grove into the park, escaped one ticket and saved 20 knives per person. Dining can be done in the hotel. Breakfast is an example. A 50Q is equivalent to 7 knives. It also includes coffee and juice. For a hotel of this level, the cost is very good and the waiter is very friendly. It’s a different and enjoyable experience to enjoy the birds and flowers in the jungle.

I stayed here 1 night and it was a bit of a walk from the main street. I wouldn't usually mind, but because I was tired from a 6 hour tour from Tikal earlier in the day, walking a few blocks with 16lb backpack in tow in 103 degree weather wasn't really what I would've prefered to do. The reason being that vans/tour buses are not allowed past the main street because the streets are not wide enough. Once at the hotel check in was a breeze and Chonita was vey kind and informative. Not much of a view from the lobby or outside, but once I reached my room, the view of Lake Peten Itza was amazing. I was on the third floor, no elevator. Again, usually not a big deal, but I'm 47 and bad knees. Hot and tired from walking and traveling all morning, it was tiresome. The room was very clean. Air conditioning is a must and there's worked great. There's a mini fridge loaded with different types of drinks. Beer, soda. water and even offer small bottles of wine and liquor along with a price list of what each item will cost. TV, wifi worked well. My room was located right besides the outdoor community deck. For most of my stay it was empty and it was nice to sit outside and lounge reading a book and enjoying the views. At night time some other guests were out on the deck and I could hear their conversations, but it wasn't botheresome because I was exhausted from my day, I went to sleep right away. You must take advantage of the sunrise, perfect view to watch it come up around 5:30 am. I was still in my pj's and was not surprised to see more guests awake and enjoying it too. Overall experience was good. They offer free breakfast at an affiliate hotel, I chose to eat at La Casona, which is literally down the block about a 5 minute walk with a great view of the lake. Then before I left I took a swim at another affiliate hotel, Hotel Peten, which is about a 10 minute walk.

The hotel has a beautiful view of the lake, the sunset is spectacular, the colors that can be seen from the terrace are phenomenal. I went with my mother and my sister. The room was very suitable for the 3 of us, very large and comfortable beds. The hotel is not very new but ideal for resting.

Sabana Hotel is such a delightful place to stay in beautiful Flores, Guatemala! The rooms are basic, yet with cold air conditioning to alleviate the sweltering heat, a beautiful view of Lake Petén Itzá and a staff that goes the extra mile to make the stay truly enjoyable and memorable!
