    The staff were excellent, they had recommendations of what to do around Antigua, the option of either traditional breakfast or pancakes and fruit (both delicious). Rosa does a great job at keeping the place clean with daily housekeeping. The owner was super friendly and had great stories. Also the owner has a small personal gym set up (dip bar, pull up bar, rings, weights) that he let us use which was great! Was about 10-15 minutes walk to the centre. Safe area. They create a very homely feel! Would highly recommend!

    location was a healthy walk from downtown. The shuttle driver showed up almost 30 minutes late, and traffic to Guatemala city was very heavy and we missed a flight, costing us double for an in country flight. Not the hotel's fault but it was their suggested shuttle driver. Yes, it was unusually busy due to Holy Week, but the shuttle driver should have calculated how to pick us up on time.

    Nice balcony, friendly staff. Comfortable rooms.

    I highly recommend staying here for a few reasons - the view from the roof terrace where you can have your breakfast from is amazing, the hotel is about a 15mins walk from the centre meaning that it is a peaceful location, good room size, finally and most importantly, the host Irving goes above and beyond to make sure you're comfortable in your stay, in planning transfers, sharing recommendations etc and all his recommendations are fairly priced. Thank you. There was also good WiFi connection throughout the areas I used in the property - ground floor and terrace.

    Nada.

    The lovation was beautiful. Seeing the volcanos in the morning when having breakfast was amazing. The room was small but that was ok. The room was clean. The location was away from the tourist area so the place feels like being in a local barrio which was good and felt like a real area where people live.

    Irving and Rosa were very friendly and accommodating. The desayuno típico was great, and the rooftop view was stunning.

    A bit fat from the centre but it was safe to walk, just a bit awkward if you wanted to relax before dinner

    Nothing can beat coffee and breakfast ( very yummy btw) on the terrace

    Location a little out of town which makes it quiet and private, but shuttles and tours don’t collect from here.

    Beautiful property, very safe and secure, great value for money. Rooms large, clean and neat. Easy check in process with good communication. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff - they even called an embassy for us to talk in Spanish when we needed assistance. Would definitely return.

    View from the terrace, family owned business.

    Irving could have been more forthcoming with useful information and help guests. When I booked a taxi from the airport it turned out another couple were on same flight but we had to take 2 different taxis. Irving knew this and could have provided one taxi instead of making us pay separately. Also nowhere to put / hang clothes in the rooms was annoying.

    Rosa and her smiling face and delicious desayuno! Great view from terrace. Relaxed homely feel.

    Wonderful little hotel with friendly, caring staff and a lovely rooftop terrace to enjoy breakfast. Maison Bougainvillea is a great place to stay. The owner, Irving, was a wealth of knowledge with some top recommendations for things to do, eat, and see. It is very quiet at night. The breakfasts, a choice between traditional and pancakes and fruit, were delicious. And although it seems like it is situated outside of the center, Antigua is small. We walked from Maison Bougainvillea to the open market on the other side of town in 25 minutes. If you want to save your legs, Uber X is the same price as the Tuk-Tuks, and WAY more comfortable on the cobblestones.

    Irving was super helpful. The place is clean and cosy. The house is a 10min walk into the centre which I enjoyed because it can get busy and noisy in the centre of the town. Hot water pressure not so strong but it's the norm from where I have been so far in Guatemala.

    The mattress was quite hard and uncomfortable. This is the ONLY thing we didn't like.

    The staff is excellent. The location is a quick walk from the center of town. The breakfast choices are excellent (especially the traditional) and Rosa should be named employee of the year. The owner (Irving) is a great guy with lots of information about the surrounding areas and beyond. His English is perfect.

    There is one dog, who I assume is the neighbors who likes to bark randomly throughout the night. The building itself echoes a bit so if other guests are loud in the common areas it’s easy to hear. Neither of these things falls on the property, more just a heads up to light sleepers.

    The property is outside of the busy city center. However, not too far to make it difficult. A nice morning walk will get you directly into el centro. The roof terrace is a wonderful place to start your day. The included breakfast is delicious. Irving and Rosa continuously make you feel at home. I felt welcomed immediately.

    Beautiful terrace with hammocks and views of the volcanoes. Delicious breakfast. Staff were friendly and helped with booking onward transport. Very cute room with a comfortable bed. Neighbourhood feels very safe. Stayed in four places in Antigua and this was by far our favourite!
