Hotel Tolimán

This hotel lies near one of the most beautiful lakes in Guatemala. Its swimming pool, restaurant, and hammocks wait for you just off the shores of Lake Atitlán.

Lake Atitlán is a large freshwater lake bordered by three majestic volcanoes and surrounded by charming small towns. This hotel is located in San Lucas Tolimán, one of the less touristy and more traditional areas. The setting is peaceful, making it an excellent spot for bird watching and hiking. Guests can relax in hammocks or use kayaks to explore the lake at their own pace. For the adventurous, guided hikes up the nearby volcanoes are available, offering breathtaking views of the region. You can also enjoy boat rides to larger towns like Panajachel.

Accommodations at the hotel are tastefully decorated, with all rooms featuring private bathrooms. Various bed configurations are offered, including rooms with two full beds, one king-size bed, or two twin beds. There’s also an “integrated” room option that includes two bedrooms, one with two full beds and the other with two singles. For families or larger groups, an apartment with two bedrooms, a living room, and a porch is available—one bedroom has a king-size bed, while the other has two singles. A luxurious suite option includes a living room, fireplace, and king-size bed.

The hotel maintains a vegetable garden that supplies fresh produce for its restaurant. The dining area features warm wooden tones and a lovely patio with views of the lake and volcano. The kitchen serves both Guatemalan and international cuisine, earning a reputation for its fresh and well-prepared dishes. The bar is well-stocked with a selection of national and imported beers, wines, and cocktail ingredients.

For events, the hotel offers a conference room that can accommodate up to 60 guests. With a capacity to sleep up to 70, the restaurant can also serve up to 150, making it a great option for gatherings.

The management is committed to environmental sustainability, which influences hotel operations, including the use of septic tanks and responsible garbage disposal. The kitchen composts organic waste to enrich the garden, and both staff and guests are encouraged to be mindful of water and electricity usage.

Despite its eco-friendly focus, the hotel offers modern amenities, including wireless Internet and a swimming pool. Additionally, there is a private helipad available for guests.
