The service staff from the restaurant, as well as the st Teresita staff was amazing except for the reception at the hotel and the scheduling staff, Vanessa did a horrible job to make my service schedule and made everyone in the property to remake the schedule and had to stay on a longer hours to accommodate me and my mother so we could have the services as should. Also please make sure to have it offer a different menus of prices for Third party vendors such as booking with Expedia so there are no misunderstanding or False advertising and overcharges at the counter as it happen to me so the client can have a better way to organize and have the correct budget without surprises! Thank you

I’ve visited this hotel about five times with my family, and it has always been one of our favorites. It was my top choice because it offered peace, relaxation, and wonderful memories. But this time, I noticed some changes that made the experience less enjoyable. 1.The room didn’t meet the usual standards. The shower had very weak water pressure, and the safety box wasn’t working. I asked the lobby to open it, but no one followed up. The sink wasn't draining properly, but that was fixed the same day. 2.The jacuzzi wasn’t warm in the mornings like before, and I had to ask for adjustment every day. The chlorine smell was noticeably stronger, and the jacuzzi didn’t seem clean early in the morning. 3. Restaurant: The food was great, but service was very slow. One morning I waited over 30 minutes by the pool for someone to take my order and had to go to the restaurant to ask. I also had to follow up several times for basic requests. One night, I wanted to order a glass of wine, but they said they only had one glass left. When I asked if I could order a bottle instead, they said yes, which felt odd. I also saw another guest upset after being told there was no more wine, only to watch a staff member carry two glasses out for room service. The hotel still has charm and privacy, so I’ll likely return. But if service doesn’t improve, I may reconsider. It seems staff was reduced, which affected quality. I hope they address this and return to the high standards I’ve enjoyed in the past

El lugar es espectacular con aguas termales por todos lados, nos encantó y cuenta con un área exclusiva para niños, la habitación es amplia, cómoda y relajante. Puntos de mejora: notamos presencia de humedad en la habitación y la refrigeradora no funcionaba. Por otro lado, los precios del restaurante son bastante elevados y la calidad de la comida no justifica el precio.

Never again

My friend chose this hotel specifically for the thermal spa at Santa Teresita. It directs you to kawilal but everything is additional and added on. My friend didn’t read the previous reviews either or else we would’ve avoided this at all costs. Restaurant options weren’t great. The hotel is in the middle of a toxic industrial area that looks like a slum. There is NO air conditioning in the room and the room is super humid. The road noise is deafening and noise from the town is deafening. The website says services in English and Spanish - they’re only in Spanish. This was frustrating because I don’t get paid to be a translator and I don’t want to have to act as a go between. There’s no information about services or where. The maps are confusing. One positive thing is the room was clean but whatever they use to clean the floor causes a film that I almost slid and fell on three times. Even more dangerous when getting out of the shower. The restaurant staff was nice. ZERO communication that while breakfast is included YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR DRINKS WITH YOUR BREAKFAST. Why not be upfront about this? Positive note, I asked for express laundry service and it came back quick for a good price. I’ll never stay here again. We opted to lose the night stay and drive back to antigua in traffic to spend the evening there where it was much quieter and comfortable…
