Barceló Guatemala City
Great hotel. Staff was pleasant. Area around hotel was walkable and there was a nearby shopping plaza. However, breakfast was ok. The only made chocolate drizzled pancakes. And when you asked for plain pancakes they were not able to make them. The juices could better as well.

Wyndham Garden Guatemala City
Woman who made up our room was excellent. And she spoke English also which was great because most just speak in Spanish. Breakfast was not good at all. Staff was very nice and the room was very clean.
