disapointing! can not trust the reservation
Service very friendly. No coffee in room. Did not get the room I reserved. Got a room with no balcony or view and was stuffy. Can not trust that they will give you the room you sererve and pay for. I reserved a room with a balcony facing the street and got oneI could not open the one window because could be seen from front desk.

The architecture is just breathtaking, you feel as if you were living in a palace in the XVI century (which actually is). The building was built for the daughter of Don Pedro de Alvarado, Guatemala’s conquistador and founder of Antigua Guatemala. As such, there might be a couple of amenities in modern hotels that this one is lacking, but overall this is an experience to be lived. Since the balconies face a busy, central street, the doors seal completely and it might get too hot or too cold at night. But the beds and pillows are uber comfortable. Bathroom is small with more than enough towels and toiletries and good water pressure. The staff is very accommodating and nice. They do have a topnotch bar and the Moscow Mules should be tried. They don’t have their own parking lot, so if you’re driving it might be a bit of a hassle to find a parking lot close by, I’d advice to coordinate in advance with the hotel. Make sure to take pictures of the garden as well. Beautiful!

Amazing place and the hotel to visit. We loved it so much and plan to go back next year. One minor thing is that the room is not equipped with a coffee maker nor a refreezerator.

Incredible location, within a few minutes of everything. Mostly friendly staff, indifferent service at the restaurant. What I really didn't like was the bed, hard as a rock! At least a soft topper if not a mattress change altogether is required.

This is one of the few historic colonial homes that remains intact. Most the other ones are cut up into hostels and cheap restaurants. Stepping into the palacio is like stepping back into the 16th century. It has one of Antigua’s most beautiful gardens. The hallways are grand and well decorated with antiques and comfortable sofas. I stayed in the largest room in the hotel, the King Suite. It was a room fit for a king. Huge king sized canopy bed, beautiful sitting area, large wood burning fireplace (with lots of firewood) and two massive windows which opened onto the street below and offered incredible views of all the volcanoes. The restaurant service was excellent as was the food. I highly recommend this hotel. It is definitely worth every penny.

Gorgeous centrally-located hotel
This hotel is beautiful and I can't think of a better location in Antigua. Everything in the hotel is very historic and the inner courtyard is beautiful. I was in a room with 2 twin beds even though I booked a room with a king. The front desk offered to move me to one of the available King rooms but they actually weren't as nice so I stayed in the one they gave me. The wifi is a bit weak in the rooms on the 2nd floor but still functional.

Gorgeous historic oasis in Antigua
We loved everything about this hotel, from the location a block from the plaza and the history of the converted Spanish colonial mansion to the serene courtyard, excellent service and portraits hanging in the rooms. Having walked around Antigua and poked our heads into a number of hotels, I have to think Palacio de Doña Leonor is wildly underrated, as I didn't see anywhere I'd rather have stayed. Although we're consummate explorers, we chose to stay in the hotel for drinks several times just to enjoy the space.

Bad room
We recieved a room with two beds after reserving one king sized... we were moved to a king sized bedroom without a window and with air condition. They said they didn't have any other room available but upon checking in hotels.com there were 3 more rooms available... the lady just didn't care to do the change and blamed the system. We received free breakfast for the inconvenience. The morning after we had the noise of breakfast right out our door...see pic. Very loud! We couldn't sleep in!
