In the Park and other Parque Nacional Tikal, Guatemala Hotel/Accommodation Reviews

There are three places to stay right in the park where you can get up and go out early in the morning when it is cool, or to see the sunset. They are the Tikal Inn, the Jungle Lodge, and the Hotel Jaguar Inn. We were supposed to stay at the Jaguar Inn, but they lost our reservations. Fortunately they were able to find us a place at the Tikal Inn (which was much nicer and also more expensive). The Jungle Lodge and the Tikal Inn are comparable in price

Unique Qualities: This is what the website says about prices. I think their price for a double in 1998 was a little over $50.00

OCCUPANCY PRICE PER PERSON with a private bath (Including tour, lunch & park entrance fee)

SINGLE US$ 109.80
DOUBLE US$ 80.52
TRIPLE US$ 79.99 Plus Tourism & Local Taxes

OCCUPANCY PRICE per room
SINGLE US$ 65.88
DOUBLE US$ 80.52
TRIPLE US$ 117.12 Plus Tourism & Local Taxes

The reason that there was a mixup is that there are no phones to the park - all the reservations are done from Flores by radio.

We had a double bed and two twin beds, a rack for clothes, and a private bathroom. There were chairs around the pool, but at dusk it gets a little mosquito-y. There is only electricity for a short time at night.

We ate dinner here too - the food was excellent

We were originally supposed to spend 2 nights here. However there were no phones and the reservation got lost. Mail service is so bad that the travel agent sent the payment with us in a check (two nights for two people with a private bath was $96). I refused to give them the check unless they found me a place to stay. So they phoned over to the Tikal Inn (which was a nicer place and more expensive.).

Unique Qualities: They have no pool. They have electricity only from 6 p.m.to 9 p.m. There was a private bath, but no windows in the bathroom so you couldn't see without electricity. Take your shower before the lights go out. We didn't find that there was any hot water. We had twin beds, and there was a bedside table on which were two candles, and a water jug and glasses.
