A friend and I had booked a stay at the Jaguar Inn for two nights. We really liked how close the hotel was to Tikal, but had a bad experience with receptionist, who was rude and condesending to us. We were told our room would be ready at 2, which it was not. Also, the man was very rude to... more

well I guess you can't complain too much about the location! right next to the park entrance, but also right in the middle of the jungle! when describing the hotel itself, it wouldn't be a hotel I would pay $50 for in Flores or another city in Guatemala, but wow.... I really did enjoy the pool. after walking around the... more

This is a very convenient hotel for visiting Tikal, particularly at sunrise, as it's right next to the park entrance. We met other travellers who'd bussed in from Flores for sunrise and we were very pleased we'd chosen to stay at the Jaguar Inn. Our room was fairly basic but comfortable, and there was a hammock on the patio outside... more

Our first (and last) visit to the Jungle Loge in Tikal was a disaster. When we arrived, they would not take our luggage to our room. We had to carry it ourselves. The first room they gave us the door lock was broken (when we stuck the key in the lock it just spun around) and when we asked for... more

We stayed here for two nights because of its proximity to the National Park and the pool. On both counts it was a good choice. We were pleasantly surprised that the electricity was on all night! Our ceiling fan got pretty noisy after it was on for several hours, but that could easily be adjusted, I'd think. We were surprised... more

We stayed in the Tikal Inn as part of a high school group tour. As others have noted, this is a unique hotel. It is located in the jungle, and is far from any other amenities. Electricity availability is limited to morning and evening times. Very limited shopping is available, but selection and price are not as good as elsewhere... more

Stayed one night (just last night) at the Jungle Lodge on a quick trip to Tikal. The location is unbeatable. The rest of the experience was underwhelming. I am typing this review from the pricey internet cafe in the lobby - 6 USD per hour. BE sure to have exact change, or you will have to wait around for them... more

Tikal national park has only 3 hotels on its property and Jaguar Inn is one of them. It was relatively cheap $60 for a huge room with a king size bed. A strange thing about the room was that it didn't have any closet or shelves inside, so we had to store all our clothes on a bed and bedside... more

This is the ideal location for visiting Tikal. The room was very clean however there was only electricity from 6 - 10 pm so be prepared to be HOT without a fan at night. Food was mediocre. The pool area was the showcase of the property. We got up at 4 and did the sunrise tour which I would highly... more

What a beautiful place~ We had a great experience at this hotel. It is gorgeous ~ set in the amazing jungle of Tikal. I highly recommend this hotel. We enjoyed our stay here very much. The room was great, the food was also good and the pool was fantastic and so refreshing after hiking in the heat through Tikal~ We... more

I went to Tikal with my family in December of 2007. I felt hustled from the second I crossed the border into Guatemala from Belize. It was so disappointing and stressful that the local people have perfected the art of strangling every ounce of joy from a gorgeous, significant national park. Specifically, the sunrise tour is a big scam. There... more

13 members of my family stayed last January from the 9th to the 20th. We rented a vehicle at the airport and drove out to the Inn. I had never been out of the country before so this was going to be a real challenge or so I thought. I havent had spanish since 7th grade, I'm 51. My father... more

This was my third stay at this property. It has been a pleasant experience in the past, but seems to be going downhill. Twelve of us spent two nights the first of April. Between our six bungalows, two had no water. One unit (ours) was able to be repaired but the other folks had to relocate into another bungalow. Also,... more

Perfect spot in Tikal park. Way more than we expected. Good food, cold beer. helpful employees. They nights without generators were hot, but they left lanterns on the porch in case you needed light at night. Great pool. Make sure to walk into the park at sunset and climb a temple. Then walk out in the dusk with a flashlight.... more

What a great experience to wake up so close to Tikal, hear howler monkeys and experience the sunrise without having to endure that long shuttle from Flores. The higher price for this hotel was worth it for the location alone. As a bonus, we had a pool and nice shady yard in which to relax during the heat of the... more

The only reason to stay here is because you want to be in the Tikal National Park. And for what you pay, it's not a bad place to go, but you wil remind yourself you are there for the park not for the accommodations, food or service. Each room is part of a duplex. Ours was roomy enough (never a... more

We stayed here on an overnighter from Belize. Our package included dinner and breakfast. Our room was bright, cheery and spacious. We had a few visitors though which made the stay a little more exciting! The first was a scorpion, then we had a tarantula! The howler monkeys were loud to say the least, but its all part of the... more

We stayed at the Jungle Lodge, Tikal at the end of March for 2 nights, having booked the full package with Belize.explorer.com. We were staying for 2 weeks in Mexico and wanted to visit tikal as we have previously visited Chichen Itza and Coba. We loved the location of the Lodge and found Tikal to be amazing, the Mayan site... more

I stayed here for several nights, and also stayed at the nearby Jaguar Inn. I found this hotel to be very overpriced, the food was consistently awful, the service was slow and unfriendly. I waited over an hour for a plate of spaghetti one night (dinner was included in my room charge). I ended up walking over to the Jaguar... more
