Nice hotel in San Ignacio

Very nice stay. Close to many things in town but we had a rental car for farther away tourist spots. Friendly and helpful check in process. Welcome drinks, clean room and seemed very safe. One of the best things is they had a water filter station in the hallway. Was so nice to refill water bottles and not have to buy water every day. Nice large rainfall shower. Nice size tv in the room that you could put your Netflix or Prime accounts in. It’s not a resort with a pool but we throughly enjoyed it. There is no elevator which was fine for us. There was a refrigerator in the room. You did have to turn it on if you were going to use it. Very eco friendly. Would stay here again.

The perfect place to stay in San Ignacio! You can easily walk to the main streets of town, and it's only a short drive to places like Cahal Pech and Xunantunich. The staff was wonderful, and our room was a crisp, air-conditioned oasis after being out in the sunshine! Our room had a balcony, but there's also a nice shaded sitting area by the bar. Although we felt pretty safe anyways, they do have security after 8pm, which made us feel even better. Overall I would highly recommend this hotel, and I would definitely stay here again if I revisit San Ignacio.

Excellent property. Room was great. Very clean. Hotel staff was really helpful with restaurant recommendations and doing what they could for a late check out. Multiple restaurants within walking distance. Welcome drink was a nice surprise! Calpech was walkable, but would recommend taking a taxi to get there and walk back. The walk to get there was all up hill and it was hot!

A great stay in San Ignacio.

The hotel is on a relatively quiet street, and is modern and beautiful. I especially appreciated the good laundry service, as well as the friendly Carroll who was quite helpgul, and fun.

My 5 night stay at the West House was fantastic. The entire staff was friendly and accommodating. They were happy to give recommendations or call ahead to set a dinner reservation for you.The room was spotless and the king bed was super comfortable. Water pressure and temperature were great in the shower. They offered a filtered water station out in the hall. This hotel is right on the outskirts of the little pedestrian business area, less than a 5 minute walk. This is as close to a 5 star experience as you can get in San Ignacio without staying at one of the resorts.

Enjoyed our stay in this newly constructed hotel

We did not arrive at the hotel until 8pm to find out that the front desk has closed, but luckily, the security guard was able to let us in…be aware that front desk closes at certain hours and the front door is locked at midnight for any late arrival. This small hotel was and still is newly constructed so it is very clean and well maintained without a moldy smell like you would find at older hotels. The hotel is located within a residential area so it is very quiet and only a 5 minutes walk to the town center. Room size we got was a good size with a small balcony area, unfortunately, it wasn’t too private, so we didn’t spend much time out there. Comfortable beds with very clean linens. Excellent working air conditioner and a small refrigerator. Hotel has an outdoor bar and lounge area on the second floor that we hung out a few times..Saturday afternoon has a live music dj with a great blend of tracks. Hotel could use some additional amenities like an outdoor mister at the bar/lounge when it’s 90+degrees and 80% humidity, have the check in desk opens slightly later, and definitely a small in-room coffee maker.
