After an exhausting tour to Tikal, you can spend the entire afternoon (and the next day too) in the magnificent pool, you have no choice since the weather is sooo hot!!!

We recently visited on a tour to Tikal and decided to stay overnight in Flores/Santa Elena rather than fly to the ruins and back from Guatemala City in one day. The Hotel is located conveniently on the end of the short causeway to Flores Island. We had a basic room which was satisfactorily clean and with some amenities; three adults... More

.I booked Peten Esplendido through internet, I just looked at the pics and the rooms seemed real nice. When I and my wife arrived, they gave us a small room, with a ceiling fan, air conditioner and a small tv set. The staff are the high point on this hotel, but the rooms, apart from the cleaning service, was not... More

This is a pretty good hotel, yet there are hotels better located nearer Tikal if that is where you are going, and it lacks the atmosphere of staying on Flores island itself. Still, it does a pretty good job - food was good, service was good too.

During my three-night stay at the Hotel Peten Esplendido the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff, especially the reception, continually impressed me.

When I was unable to acces my own e-mail account in an emergency,... More

I just stayed for one night. Friendly, helpful staff, a good value for money room (Holiday Inn standard) open air restaurant with menu beyond Guatemalan level. Would return.

OK. Let me start by saying I stayed at this hotel in 2001, not 2010. I was not given the option. But I felt that my review may help a few people. The UPS: Top floor room has a great view of the lake and the island, Room service is very well organized, restaurant menu was well prepared and has... More

Arrived at the Peten Esplendido after a very long day traveling from Mexico. Right from the start I was impressed - reception staff were great and very accommodating. We had a minor logistical issue that our group needed to resolve and no request was turned down by the hotel staff. A good, comfortable hotel to relax in after an exhausting... More

We stayed at Peten Esplendido for 1 night in August. Having rush-booked a trip from Guatemala City to Peten/Flores to see the Tikal ruins, this hotel was included as our accomodation for1 night, as we wereto leave for Belize the following morning. After spending the day hiking round and up the ruins at Tikal, arrived back at the hotel to... More
