The bathroom shower was terrible and the smell of the room was nasty
Stephanie
Wonderful stay! Gorgeous venue with the most kind and nicest staff. I’d highly recommend staying here again. Amazing experience!
Jasmine
Excellent hotel! So happy we chose Hotel Genessis for our stay. Its location is convenient, breakfast was great, and staff were super sweet.
Madelyn
The hotel was very spacious. At first I was hesitant because it looked different from the exterior but once inside it’s completely different. I totally recommend it. The staff is also extremely helpful the front desk even helped me with guiding me on where yo go visit.
Angel
Este lugar es un 5 estrellas. La hermosura, la limpieza y el trato es excepcional.
Luis René
Personal poco atento en recepción pero el hotel muy lindo
Ricardo
Overall the experience was really good, the bed was a little too stiff for my taste but everything was as advertised. The location is great almost everything is on a walking distance, free self parking and a really quiet overall environment.
Ellen
Lovely property in a good quiet location. Would stay again.
Laura-May
The hotel is stunning and the staff are great. The internet is so bad it’s unusable though. You can’t even google something. So if you have to work on your trip it might not be the best? But other than that it was incredible!
Shabnam Karimi
The courtyard is gorgeous & obviously the main draw to the hotel. The location is also very walkable & relatively quiet at night. The staff has ok. Overall, I found the rooms to be dark, drab and a little bit depressing. I can’t quite say why I didn’t feel like they were cleaned well. Lastly, the breakfast was not great & they kept insisting on only putting out eggs with pork in it (I don’t eat pork so sucked for me). My stay was ok but not great… nothing like how IG portrays it!
Keilly
Absolutely clean and nice hotel
Jinelys
El hotel es muy hermoso al entrar con sus jardines y la vista al Volcán de agua desde la terraza. Sin embargo el equipo de trabajo desde la entrada y la persona encargada de la cocina en específico, deben mejorar grandemente el servicio al cliente. No hay información ni una palabra de bienvenida al momento del check in, no hay buenas noches al entrar por el lobby. El desayuno es hasta las 11:30am y ya desde las 9am no se vuelve a rellenar, la encargada de la cocina todos los días con mala actitud, sin limpiar el área de comida ni colocar más desayuno. La encargada de la limpieza del cuarto muy amable. Aunque fueron muy diligentes en guardar nuestro equipaje antes y después del check in, definitivamente deben mejorar la cordialidad y recibimiento a los huéspedes para que no opaque el hermoso hotel que es.
Alejandro
Everything was beautiful here, except for the amenities. Sorely lacking unfortunately.
Emmanuel Vazquez
This hotel boasts a stunning garden and an exceptional outdoor space. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the overall cleanliness of the premises is commendable. However, the hot water system is quite unreliable. We had to leave the tap running for about 13 minutes to achieve a lukewarm temperature.
Ismael
Great staff, amazing environment. Definitely staying here again next time I’m in Antigua
Melissa
Staff was great, bed was comfortable. Water in shower doesn't get very hot, not many useable outlets in the room, small lamp by bed didn't work, which would have been nice to have an option other than just the bright overhead, but nothing major. Courtyard is truly gorgeous and a beautiful place to sit with complimentary tea and a book in the evening.very easy walk to the busier parts of town but it is on the end of a quiet street, nice to be slightly away from the hustle for your home base
Gilberth
Beautiful place, need some investment in maintenance
Sandy
Gorgeous gorgeous hotel! Staff was so friendly! Will definitely stay here again!
Leah
We loved our stay at Hotel Genessis! The hotel is absolutely gorgeous, the pictures don’t do it justice. This hotel was one of the highlights of our time in Antigua. Staff was very friendly and helpful and available 24/7. The breakfast made to order each morning was absolutely delicious. The rooms were beautiful, clean, quiet, and comfortable. The beds were soft and the air conditioner worked wonderfully. There is also rooftop access with amazing volcano views and the interior of the hotel is just breathtaking. The hotel is a little outside of the center of town at a dead end street, so it’s very quiet. The location is still convenient and you can easily get to the center of everything in about a 15 minute walk or 5 minute Uber. I would definitely stay here again and was only disappointed that our stay here wasn’t longer!
Marco
Nice hotel, small and comfortable. However, they have opportunities in terms of cleanliness.

Good service.
Emilio
Very authentic and well preserved hotel.
Crystal
There were bedbugs we could immediately see when we checked in. Based on the language barrier I could not get a refund on 2 nights paid (240USD). Of course I reached out to expedia for a refund. Due to the language barrier, customer service could not get a n immediate answer.

The staff was great, they even packed me a complimentary lunch bag for my hike.
xiomara
Is at dream place Beautiful and the front desk guys very nice and helpful we definitely come back
jorge
The hotel is very positive, comfortable and convenient, the garden is very nice.
Tracey
A nice little hotel in Antigua
The hotel is very pretty and the pictures show that. But it's several blocks away from the main square which means walking over the rocky streets which we did several times a day - or renting a taxi or tut tut.
The morning breakfast was nice with coffee so you don't have to travel.
The beds were not too comfortable and I would give it an overall 6 out of 10.

Easy to check in and out, very much a minimalist quiet spot away from the town center, but great value for its price.
Verified traveler
Beautiful patio!
Basic hotel with pretty colonial flourishes. The central patio is exceptionally beautiful--too bad you can't sleep there in a hammock. Hotel breakfast is nothing to write home about--best part is the coffee, orange juice and Bundt cake. Be sure to take a shower very early in the morning as hot water is not dependable. No hotel restaurant or bar or pool. About 5 blocks from the main plaza.

The staff were very accommodating to our travel arrival restrictions. They helped us with arranging transportation to and from international airport.
Room was clean, property was beautiful, the breakfast on offer was filling and tasty.

Truly magical, the staff were an absolute delight. Will be returning soon
Esther
The property is clean, beautiful and well kept. The staff are attentive, though communication was a slight challenge with my poor spanish speaking ability. Overall really nice people there though and we made it work. Its a little bit of a walk to the town center--about 15 minutes, but this made the property really quiet, which was nice. Having AC was a huge plus. And the garden was really gorgeous. Breakfast was included and was very good. It has a rooftop but no real hangout area up there. Still cool to be able to view the city though. The front desk arranged a safe ride to the airport for a reasonable price--about $35 USD. Would recommend
Gisselle
This hotel is amazing! It’s only a 10-15 minute walk from the main plaza. The area is nice and quiet. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and the price is a lot cheaper than staying closer to the plaza. The courtyard is stunningly beautiful with all the plants and flowers. I have never seen anything like it. The rooms are very spacious and clean. There is a rooftop where you get a beautiful view of the city and the volcanoes. Don’t think about it twice and book it!
Michelle
Service from this property is top notch. Staff is so friendly and kind. Free breakfast is included. I was able to check in early and they held my luggage after check out and allowed me to stay on the property until my shuttle came later in the day. Internet was extremely slow in my room. The area can also be a little sketchy. I was ok leaving the hotel during the day when it was light out but I wouldn’t feel comfortable walking in that area at night. It’s about a 15-20 minute walk to the Central square park.
cathy
First off, the property is absolutely beautiful. However, there is nothing at this hotel. No restaurant or bar. Breakfast was ok but you only have the choice of one thing. It is about a half mile to the town, but on those streets it seems farther. There is nothing (but a sourdough baker which was good) around. This wasn't the only hotel I stayed at in Antigua so I can compare and there was no comparison. I had to ask to have my trash taken out (which is awful when you cannot flush toilet paper in the toilet). I also had to request for a clean towel and when I asked for a glass of ice the person acted really put out. The saving grace was Caesar, the front desk clerk, who helped us when needed. Sorry, I wanted to love this place.
Raul
The hotel has potential to be a great place but it has no amenities at all. Unfriendly staff . Has a great court yard but is useless. There is no place to rest and enjoy the beautiful nature
ERICK
Esperaba mas del lugar
Reservé el hotel por su valoración del sitio, sin embargo estaba muy lejos de ser un 9.6, no es un mal lugar, tiene una buena ubicación y la gente es muy amable, sin embargo el tamaño y las facilidades de la habitación se quedan cortas para ese punteo, le daría un 7.5 de valoración
Juan Pablo
The only thing I would add is, the room needs a phone to be able to connect with the front desk.
John
Clise to parking, quiet and walking distance to major attractions.
Sandra
Amazing free breakfast. Helpful people. Musty smell in the rooms and small bathrooms. But nice beds.
