why this is one of the best places to&nbsp;stay in Antigua Guatemala, especially if you are visiting during Semana Santa, Festival de las Flores, or any other busy time of year.<\/p><div

birding trip. We stayed two nights in March, during Cuaresma, a couple of weeks before Semana Santa, which is absolutely peak season in Antigua. I was half expecting to pay a lot more than I wanted to. Instead, we booked directly through the Villas de Guatemala website and paid around $99 per night with breakfast included. For what we got, that is a really good deal.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_hotel_that_feels_like_its_own_little_Antigua_neighborhood\"><\/span><strong>A hotel that feels like its own little Antigua neighborhood<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first thing you notice when you walk through the entrance of Villa Colonial is that feeling of having stepped into another era. It has that Antigua Guatemala colonial feel. But the real surprise is when you walk to your room, instead of a hallway you walk into a cobblestone street. A real one, just like the ones outside. On either side there are colonial-style houses painted in warm ochres, terracottas, and creamy whites. Each one has wrought-iron balconies and arched windows, and wooden doors. There are lanterns, benches, potted plants. It genuinely feels like you have stepped into a quiet callej\u00f3n somewhere in the city, not a hotel corridor.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-74993\" src=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_202330498.MP_-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Inner cobblestone courtyard at Villa Colonial hotel in Antigua Guatemala with a yellow colonial fountain, bougainvillea-covered stone walls and terracotta building\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_202330498.MP_-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_202330498.MP_-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_202330498.MP_-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_202330498.MP_-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_202330498.MP_-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_202330498.MP_-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_202330498.MP_-560x560.jpg 560w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_202330498.MP_.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That is the whole concept. Villa Colonial was designed to feel like a miniature Antigua neighborhood, with 54 rooms spread across 11 small colonial buildings. No two rooms are the same. Some have balconies, some have cupolas, some face inner courtyards with fountains, some look out over the main garden. It is one of those places where the design actually has an idea behind it, and you feel it everywhere you look.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-74985\" src=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6060-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"The private internal cobblestone street at Villa Colonial hotel in Antigua Guatemala, lined with colonial buildings in ochre and terracotta, with Volc\u00e1n de Agua visible at the end\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6060-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6060-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6060-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6060-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6060-560x747.jpg 560w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6060-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_rooms_spacious_comfortable_and_very_Guatemalan\"><\/span><strong>The rooms: spacious, comfortable, and very Guatemalan<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Our room faced one of the inner courtyards, with a fountain just outside. It was quiet, pretty, and felt very private. The three of us had plenty of space, which matters a lot when you are traveling with two young adults who each need their own corner. The ceilings were high, the walls were that thick white textured plaster you find in real colonial buildings, and the floors were terracotta tile. The beds had beautiful red Guatemalan textile runners on them, the kind you recognize immediately if you know our textiles. Wrought iron headboards, a painting of Antigua on the wall, warm lighting in the evenings. It felt like a room someone had thought about, not just put together.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-74995\" src=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260311_005758421-1024x952.jpg\" alt=\"Spacious double room at Villa Colonial boutique hotel in Antigua Guatemala with traditional red Guatemalan textile bed runners, wrought iron headboards, terracotta tile floors and white colonial walls \" width=\"1024\" height=\"952\" srcset=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260311_005758421-1024x952.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260311_005758421-300x279.jpg 300w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260311_005758421-768x714.jpg 768w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260311_005758421-1536x1427.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260311_005758421-560x520.jpg 560w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260311_005758421.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>One of my friends had a second-floor room with a balcony overlooking the main garden. That room was gorgeous, and honestly, if I go back I am asking for that one. The view of the garden witht is something so peaceful. So my honest recommendation: ask for a room facing one of the inner courtyards with a fountain, or a second-floor room with a balcony overlooking the main garden. Both are great choices and both are very peaceful.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-74981\" src=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6007-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Patio empedrado con fuente colonial en Villa Colonial, hotel boutique en Antigua Guatemala, con paredes de piedra y vegetaci\u00f3n\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6007-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6007-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6007-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6007-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6007-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6007-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6007-560x560.jpg 560w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6007.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My US friends kept talking about how much space they had. One of them mentioned she had paid more than twice as much for a much smaller room at another hotel in Antigua. We all know that feeling of opening a hotel room door and being a little underwhelmed. This was not that.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Breakfast_a_la_carte_and_a_restaurant_with_Volcan_de_Agua_right_in_front_of_you\"><\/span><strong>Breakfast a la carte and a restaurant with Volc\u00e1n de Agua right in front of you<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Most hotels in Antigua that include breakfast give you a buffet. Villa Colonial does it differently. When breakfast is included in your rate, you order from a menu at the Bugambilias restaurant on the second floor. There is a set of dishes included with your room, and if you want something else from the menu you pay the difference. You sit down, someone takes your order, and your food comes out hot. I really appreciate that. No scrambled eggs sitting in a tray since six in the morning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-75001\" src=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142937287-1024x961.jpg\" alt=\"Two guests reviewing the Bugambilia menu at Villa Colonial's open-air restaurant terrace in Antigua Guatemala, with the garden and Volc\u00e1n de Agua filling the background\" width=\"1024\" height=\"961\" srcset=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142937287-1024x961.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142937287-300x281.jpg 300w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142937287-768x720.jpg 768w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142937287-1536x1441.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142937287-560x525.jpg 560w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142937287.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But the main reason to eat at Bugambilias is the view. The restaurant has an open-air terrace on the second floor, and you are sitting there looking straight at Volc\u00e1n de Agua. Not a peek between rooftops. The whole volcano, right there, with the hotel&#8217;s colonial buildings and garden below you. On a clear morning in March the sky is so blue and the volcano looks so close you almost cannot believe it. The menu has traditional Guatemalan dishes and international options. The food was good, the service was attentive and friendly, and it is just a really nice way to start the morning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-74987\" src=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6133-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"Desayuno a la carta en el restaurante Bugambilia de Villa Colonial en Antigua Guatemala con el Volc\u00e1n de Agua de fondo\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6133-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6133-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6133-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6133-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6133-560x747.jpeg 560w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6133-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_garden_the_birds_and_mornings_that_make_you_want_to_slow_down\"><\/span><strong>The garden, the birds, and mornings that make you want to slow down<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We were in Guatemala on a birding trip, so naturally I was paying attention to every tree. The gardens at Villa Colonial are large, shaded, and full of life. Every morning we woke up to birds calling. I spotted Baltimore Orioles and Orchard Orioles moving through the branches, bright orange flashes against the green. Local flycatchers in the canopy. My American friends, who had traveled all the way to Guatemala to see birds, were so happy to find that kind of activity right at the hotel before we even left for the day.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-74983\" src=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6032-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Jard\u00edn principal de Villa Colonial en Antigua Guatemala con fuente central, habitaciones con balc\u00f3n y el Volc\u00e1n de Agua al fondo\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6032-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6032-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6032-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6032-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6032-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6032-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6032-560x560.jpg 560w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/IMG_6032.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But even if birds are not your thing, the garden is worth spending time in. The grass is green and well kept, there is a central fountain, and Volc\u00e1n de Agua is visible above the roofline. Before things warm up in the morning, it is completely quiet out there. Just the garden, the birds, the fountain, and the volcano.

Round, with a thick curved stone rim, and a beautiful ornamental wall behind it with terracotta details. It fits so naturally into the rest of the hotel that you can walk right past it and not register it as somewhere you can swim. Once my friends figured it out, we spent a good amount of time there. The water was clean and cool, the setting was beautiful, and the wall behind it made every photo look like it was taken in an old colonial hacienda. It is a pool with character, and it matches the whole feel of the place perfectly.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_location_a_quiet_neighborhood_with_everything_close_by\"><\/span><strong>The location: a quiet neighborhood with everything close by<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Villa Colonial is in El Calvario, in the southern part of Antigua. If you know the city, you know El Calvario. It is quiet, residential, and real. Not the tourist zone. You are close to the Iglesia de San Francisco, the Convento de Santa Clara, and Caoba Farms, which is a wonderful farm-to-table spot worth visiting. The Parque Central is about a 15 to 20 minute walk, and it is a nice walk through actual Antigua, not just souvenir shops.<\/p>\n<p>The big advantage of this location is that you are far enough from the center to actually rest, but close enough to walk to everything. If you are coming during Semana Santa, Festival de las Flores, or any busy weekend, this matters. The center of Antigua gets loud and packed. Villa Colonial is your calm place to come back to, and you can still be in the middle of the processions on foot in twenty minutes. That combination is not easy to find at this price.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Free_parking_on_site_which_in_Antigua_is_a_bigger_deal_than_it_sounds\"><\/span><strong>Free parking on site, which in Antigua is a bigger deal than it sounds<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Parking in Antigua is genuinely stressful. The streets are narrow, the cobblestones make maneuvering tricky, and finding secure private parking near anything costs money when you can even find it. A lot of people end up parking far from their hotel and walking with luggage over uneven stones, which is not the start anyone wants.<\/p>\n<p>Villa Colonial has free, secure parking on site. You pull in, park, and do not think about your car again until you check out. For anyone driving from Guatemala City or anywhere else in the country, this takes a real weight off. It is one of those practical things that makes the whole trip feel easier from the moment you arrive.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-74999\" src=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142740851-1024x982.jpg\" alt=\"Woman standing on the open-air terrace of Bugambilia restaurant at Villa Colonial in Antigua Guatemala, looking out over the colonial buildings, hotel gardens and Volc\u00e1n de Agua rising in the background under a clear blue sk\" width=\"1024\" height=\"982\" srcset=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142740851-1024x982.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142740851-300x288.jpg 300w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142740851-768x737.jpg 768w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142740851-1536x1473.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142740851-560x537.jpg 560w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260312_142740851.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips_for_booking_and_making_the_most_of_your_stay\"><\/span><strong>Tips for booking and making the most of your stay<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Book directly<\/strong>&nbsp;through the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.villasdeguatemala.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Villas de Guatemala website<\/a>. We paid $99 per night with breakfast included during high season in March. You will almost certainly get a better rate there than through third-party sites, and you can talk to the hotel directly about room preferences.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ask for a room facing one of the inner courtyards with a fountain, or a second-floor room with a balcony overlooking the main garden.<\/strong>&nbsp;Those are the ones I would choose. The garden-view balcony rooms are especially lovely.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Have breakfast on the Bugambilias terrace on a clear morning.<\/strong>&nbsp;Sit on the terrace side so you can see the volcano. The dry season months give you the best visibility.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spend time in the garden before 8am.<\/strong>&nbsp;Quietest part of the day, and the best time to catch the birds if that interests you.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The pool is the round thing that looks like a fountain.<\/strong>&nbsp;Now you know. Go for a swim.<\/li>\n<li><strong>If you are coming for Semana Santa or Festival de las Flores, book early.<\/strong>&nbsp;Antigua fills up quickly for those dates and the El Calvario location is a real advantage when the center gets crowded.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_will_love_this_hotel\"><\/span><strong>Who will love this hotel<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Families with teens or young adults who need actual space in the room. Couples who want the Antigua colonial experience without the prices that usually come with it. Groups of friends traveling together. Guatemalans driving in from the capital who want parking and a calm base. People who have been to Antigua before and want somewhere that actually feels like the city. And honestly, anyone who appreciates a hotel that has a real design concept behind it, not just a nice paint job.<\/p>\n<p>I have stayed at more expensive hotels in Antigua. Some of them were beautiful. But Villa Colonial has something that is harder to find than a big budget: a clear sense of what it wants to be, rooms with character, a staff that is genuinely warm, a garden that makes you want to sit outside, and a restaurant where breakfast comes with a volcano view. For $99 a night with breakfast in peak season, it is one of the best values I know of in this city. I will definitely go back, and next time I am getting the balcony room overlooking the garden.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-75005 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_201859067.MP_-988x1024.jpg\" alt=\" Mujer sentada en el borde de la piscina de Villa Colonial en Antigua Guatemala, rodeada de palmeras bajo un cielo azul con nubes, con la pared ornamental colonial de fondo\" width=\"1024\" height=\"966\"\/><\/p>\n<p>If you are looking for a&nbsp;boutique hotel in Antigua Guatemala&nbsp;that is affordable, beautiful, and feels like it actually belongs here, put Villa Colonial on your list.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_asked_questions_about_Villa_Colonial_Antigua_Guatemala\"><\/span><strong>Frequently asked questions about Villa Colonial Antigua Guatemala<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Where exactly is Villa Colonial located in Antigua Guatemala?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Villa Colonial is at Alameda del Calvario 28, in the El Calvario neighborhood in the southern part of Antigua. It is a quiet residential area about a 15 to 20 minute walk from the Parque Central, and very close to the Iglesia de San Francisco, Convento Santa Clara, and Caoba Farms.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Does Villa Colonial have free parking?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, and it is one of the best things about staying here. Villa Colonial has free, secure, on-site private parking for guests. In Antigua, where parking near the historic center is limited and expensive, this is a real advantage. You can leave your car there for your entire stay at no extra cost.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What is the best way to book Villa Colonial and get the best price?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Book directly through the Villas de Guatemala website. In March during high season we paid $99 per night with breakfast included, which is excellent value for Antigua. Direct bookings typically offer better rates than going through Booking.com or Expedia, and you can also communicate directly with the hotel about room preferences.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Is Villa Colonial a good hotel for Semana Santa in Antigua?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, and the location is actually a big advantage during Semana Santa. The El Calvario neighborhood is calm and residential, so you sleep well and walk to the processions in about 15 to 20 minutes. The hotel also has on-site parking, which matters a lot during Semana Santa when much of Antigua&#8217;s center is closed to vehicles. Book well in advance for those dates.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-74989\" src=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_201310219-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Entrada Hotel Villa Colonial Antigua Guatemala durante Cuaresma \" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_201310219-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_201310219-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_201310219-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_201310219-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_201310219-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_201310219-500x500.jpg 500w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_201310219-560x560.jpg 560w, https:\/\/growingupbilingual.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/PXL_20260310_201310219.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Does Villa Colonial Antigua have a pool?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, and it is one of the most distinctive pools in Antigua. It is designed to look like a large colonial-style fountain with a curved stone rim and a decorative ornamental wall behind it. It blends into the hotel&#8217;s design so naturally that some guests walk past it without realizing it is a pool. It is clean, well maintained, and surrounded by palm trees and colonial architecture.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Is breakfast included at Villa Colonial?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It depends on which rate you book. When breakfast is included, it is served a la carte at the Bugambilias restaurant on the second floor, not as a buffet. A selection of dishes is covered by your room rate, and anything else on the menu is an additional charge. The restaurant has open-air terrace seating with direct views of Volc\u00e1n de Agua.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Are all rooms at Villa Colonial the same?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>No, every room is individually decorated. Some have balconies, some have cupolas, and some face the inner courtyards with fountains. The best options are rooms facing an inner courtyard with a fountain, or second-floor rooms with a balcony overlooking the main garden. Both are peaceful, beautiful, and very different from a standard hotel room.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are looking for an&nbsp;affordable boutique hotel in Antigua Guatemala&nbsp;that is genuinely beautiful, has free parking, and does not feel like every other hotel in the city,&nbsp;Villa Colonial&nbsp;is the one I would tell you to book.
