Posada del Angel is a small, charming and intimate colonial mansion located on a quiet street in the centre of historical Antigua. Owned by Texan Mary Sue Morris, its simple luxury and character have attracted many distinguished guests including Bill and Hillary Clinton. The hotel's security, privacy and peaceful atmosphere make it a perfect choice for honeymooners.
The hotel has only 5 rooms, each uniquely decorated in an attractive traditional style and furnished with a wood-burning fireplace that is welcome on a chilly Antigua evening. The intimate public areas, tasteful and painted in bold ochre colours, lead out to a terracotta patio and quaint lap pool with overhanging tropical foliage.
Set in the Western Highlands and between three volcanoes, Antigua is an essential component of a visit to Guatemala, or a more cultural and tranquil alternative stopover than the bustling capital, 45km away. The ideal way to explore the city's cobbled streets and colourful colonial buildings and churches is on foot.
