Guatemala

Change is to be expected when travelling internationally. That was certainly the case with our car rental in Flores. Ahorrent was no longer operating out of that airport, so we were left without a reservation, and a single rental car company that all too willing to charge too much money for a last minute rental. Oh well . . .

Did I mention the trouble renting a car in Santa Elana? We waited for 20 minutes at the Avis counter, but there was no sign of an employee. Fortunately, a very nice man from Budget came over. He beat the rate, arranged for transportation to the car lot, and got us on our way in minutes.

Hotel Las Farolas is located in Antigua, Guatemala, declared by UNESCO World Cultural Patrimony, 45 minutes from Guatemala City.

Get ready to be transported into the past while enjoying the comforts of the present. Once you arrive in Antigua, its cobblestone streets, its architecture, convents and churches and especially the friendly attitude of its people, you will have a wonderful stay.

Located on 9a Calle Poniente just around the corner from 5a Avenida Sur, Hotel Las Farolas is in a quite area on the southern edge of Antigua's historic center, but still only five blocks from the Central Park.
