Hotel Casa Miravalle — Hotel in Sacatepéquez

I've stayed in this hotel a number of times, and had consistently good experiences. The rooms are very clean, spacious, and staff is accommodating, although you may not find many English speakers in this remote area of the country. ||The hotel is the best in the region, and the restaurant downstairs has a nice menu with many options. I've had some good meals there as well. ||This location is used for graduations and celebrations by many locals, and is one of the best in the San Marcos/ San Pedro area. ||For about $25 a night (single person) it's a great deal. They charge by the number of persons in the room, not necessarily the number of beds, so as a single, I get a double or queen bed with a private, clean bathroom.||Free wifi too.||The area is mountainous, often foggy, and cold. The typical architecture is cement block, concrete and tile, so most buildings are cold and somewhat drafty. There are no air conditioners in the rooms (I've never needed one no matter what time of year), nor are there heaters, which would be nice. I usually sleep with a jacket and sometimes scarf around my head and/or shoulders. The front desk is happy to provide extra blankets if requested. ||This is a good resource if you're in the region, and other desirable choices for an America or person who prefers a certain level of hotel are few and...

I am all about the view and I have been seeking out the best spots in the area. Miravalle is a gem! ||The grounds, particularly the fountains, could use some love, but I barely noticed with the view of the volcanoes. The best part was the combination of the view with the food! It was affordable, service was great and the food beat expectations! ||Hobbitenango and Altamira are nice to go to once...but they are a rip off. Casa Miravalle is somewhere I will go regularly to eat. They really did impress me with the quality of the dining experience overall. ||We got the tabla para compartir and it was more than two people could eat and cost roughly the same as just the entrance fee to hobbitenango (which includes nothing). ||If you don't care about the Instagram tourist attractions of the other area spots, I highly recommend a relaxing morning here! ||Oh, and there wasn't a huge,...

One of the best views of the valley around Antigua, Guatemala accessible by car that I have found. The hotel is small (6 rooms) and built into the hillside. The restaurant is small, but appropriately sized for the hotel. The menu, while not extensive, was well-balanced for each meal-time. All of the descriptions sounded delicious and the food I had was prepared appropriately. The rooms are nicely finished and furnished and comfortable for relaxing and enjoying the exquisite view. The staff was very friendly and service prompt. The gardens are well kept and the peacocks that live on the property are fun to watch. It's hard to believe the hustle and bustle of such a lively city as Antigua is only 10 minutes away from this...
