Absolutely beautiful hotel, luxurious gardens, on the lakeshores with a view of volcano. Lively , but very romantic. Eco friendly, they have botanical gardens on site , parrots , toucans , duck and squirrels ! 
Very professional and attentive staff, nice pool with awesome view , hot jacuzzi- wish to stay much much longer…

Beautiful

The gardens are magnificent ! They are so very well cared for & breathtaking. The front desk staff was very welcoming .
Our room was incredible with so many artistic touches & a terrace overlooking the lake & gardens. However the bonus was Juan Carlos the bartender at the hotel . He made us feel so special & created artisan cocktails. We had a delicious dinner in the cozy bar area.
The next day… we dined on the deck by the pool & were so happy to have Juan Carlos as our waiter. The staff are wonderful! I also liked the macaws in the gardens.

Amazing Hotel & Service

We stayed here for 2 nights this week and was blown away at the decor, the endless gardens, and the restaurant.  To see the property one must give it time to discover each nook and cranny as every one of them has fine attention to detail and sweet surprises around every corner.  They are doing a lot of work near the water so I’d like to see the result of that as the facility is meticulously maintained. 
The rooms are well appointed, (no ability to connect a streaming service in our room, not terrible). The view from the balcony was wonderful. The restaurant was wonderful and had impeccable service. The front desk helped us get transport to town and back to Guatemala City easily. 
I hope to visit again soon

Dreamy oasis, Mind blowing gardens, excellent service,  beautiful comfortable rooms, and delicious food

Our 2 night stay at Hotel Atitlan should have been longer. The hotel is beautiful with spectacular views and staff who make sure your stay in enjoyable. Our room was on the 2nd floor at the end of the corridor; the balcony overlooked the gardens with the lake and volcanos in the background. It was quiet, romantic, perfect. The food was delicious and the bar well stocked. The staff was very friendly, courteous and professional and ensured we enjoyed our stay. While there we met the owner of the hotel Dona Sue and enjoyed talking with her. If we return to the area we will stay at Hotel Atitlan.  Thank you for the wonderful time we spent at your hotel.

Awesome views and exceptional staff

Hotel- So I’m writing this review so that I can easily remember to tell people about this great hotel.  We did not stay here, but came for breakfast.  Hotel Atitlan is a bit out of the way, so it was necessary to take a tuk tuk (20Q) from the main area of Pana.  When we arrived, my sister and I sighed and knew right away that we wish we had stayed here.  The unobstructed view of the lake is stunning.  The pool and infinity hot tub with lounge chairs looked blissful. All the rooms have balconies overlooking the lake.
Breakfast - I’ve been in Guatemala for 2 weeks and this was by far the best meal I’ve had.  The staff was delightful, inviting and attentive.  The food was delicious and plentiful. 
Amenities- there is a private dock for excursions out on the lake.  The hotel can make those arrangements.  It all looked very simple.

Stunning

I had a wonderful experience at Hotel Atitlan. The decor of the entire hotel is beautiful. There are two phenomenal gardens on the property. Since the hotel is on the lake, the views are beautiful and it’s easy to access boats. What sets this hotel apart, however, is the hardworking staff. I was lucky enough to spend two nights here. On my first night, I went to the pool for sunset. I could not believe what incredible service was provided by Teodoro Ajquijay. I asked him his name so that I could acknowledge him in my review. I have never seen a more hard-working, dedicated server. The pool area was quite busy, and he quickly and effectively managed multiple tables, provided towels, cleaned the area and helped take photos when asked. When I moved into the dining room for dinner, I was even more impressed by his service. He is truly an outstanding server. When I went to breakfast the next morning, he took care of my table, with the same great professional service as the night before. Bravo, Teodoro Ajquijay, my experience with you changed my review of the hotel from 4 stars to 5!

Amazing hotel with incredible staff

While other hotels in Panajachel cut corners, the Atitlan only gets better. Gardens, colonial-style rooms and everything else are impeccable, in good taste, and the views of clouds folding around three volcanoes across the water are unsurpassed . . . anywhere. Pool could be bigger, but where else can you soak in a hot tub, enjoy the flutter of hummingbirds, and gaze at the most beautiful lake in the world.

Rates are high for Guatemala, but not for the experience. Beverages are at "New York prices!" as one guest exclaimed.

For a slightly lower rate, book on hotelatitlan.com

Best in Guatemala

This is a magnificent place. Right by the water of beautiful Lake Atitlan, and in front of the amazing volcanoes.
The restaurant overlooks the lake and the volcanoes.
The gardens are a treat. You have plenty of areas to enjoy tropical flowers and manicured trees. All the decoration is handcrafted by the locals. The food and service is excellent.
Truly a paradise.
We try to go every year.

One of a kind place

This hotel is also like a “Botanical Garden” because in its multiple gardens (very well kept to the smallest of details), you can find dozens of trees and lots of varieties of flowers.  You can spend the whole day enjoying the song of multiple birds.
Hotel staff is very friendly, food quality excellent, rooms comfortable, free parking on site, and easy access to nearby tows around the lake.

Pleasant and relaxing hotel.  Awesome view of lake and volcanos.

Accommodation: We booked a suite with a lake view. The room was very spacious, and we enjoyed the view from our balcony in the mornings. The bed is so comfortable. It provided the support we needed after our bodies were so sore after trekking Volcan Acatenango. Loved that a huge container of filtered water was in our room, so that we did not have to worry about buying bottled water on site or in town.

Property: The hotel grounds are breathtaking. The gardens are so beautiful, from flowers and fruits growing around the hotel, we could get lost in them and enjoy every sight. We loved soaking in all of the views of Lake Atitlan while relaxing by the pool and jacuzzi, which are both climate controlled. Just be aware that after hours to bring your own towels from your room. 

Service: Everyone is warm and welcoming. They greet you upon passing to make you feel at home. Special shout out to Julio, the man who helped accommodate us with everything! He carried our bags as soon as we entered the property all the way to our rooms, gave us information about our room, the general directions of what facilities were on the property, gave us private tuk tuk ride into town/boat launch, and helped arrange transport back to Antigua. 

Restaurant: Special shout out to Carlos, who was always excited to serve us in the restaurant and at the pool. Service was always fast at the restaurant. I read previous reviews that restaurant service was slow, but we did not experience that. Since the hotel is a 20 minute walk from the main strip in town, or a 5 min tuk tuk ride, we were often too tired to venture out into town. Luckily the hotel restaurant offers great options. I was impressed that the quality of the food was amazing! I tried the Mayan egg dish and the chilequiles for breakfast. The chilequiles were the best I've ever had, I had them twice here. For dinners, I had the beef fajitas, beef pepian, and coconut shrimp. All SO good. The beef was always tender. My boyfriend loved the chicken fajitas. We only had lunch once at the hotel restaurant, and we wished had lunch more often on site because the lunch offerings actually looked better than dinner. Loved the taquitos. Also, the cocktails are great, specifically the Maracuya Sol and Volcanico. The cocktails are a bit pricy, I think relative to the same price back home (Greater New York City area). This was not a concern for us since we were celebrating our birthdays, but for others on a budget, just be aware of that. 

I highly recommend staying here if you are planning to visit Lake Atitlan.
