    No WiFi in the bedrooms and the restaurant and bar closed too early. Staff were not particularly helpful or friendly.

    It has a rustic lodge vibe.

    The room was very hot and not able to cool down with the one fan. The room needs additional fans so that the guests can sleep comfortably. It was very difficult to sleep without stronger fans.

    The location, cleanliness and amenities were wonderful.

    We booked a junior suite and as per the answer from the booking.com chat bot "All Suites are equipped with AC",which was not right.The room was equipped with a bath tube and without warm water supply for any of the outlets.The restaurant has a strange cuisine interpretation.

    The location is great in the Tikal national park.It is good for travellers without their own transportation.

    Limited hours of electricity due to generator usage, pool was ok but pool bar was not staffed which was a shame.

    Fabulous location, spider monkeys in and around the lodge, nice bar, staff helpfully allowed us to check out late post our sunrise tour, shuttle service very good!

    Amazing jungle stay right by Tikal

    No issues at all, but be mindful that you're in the middle of a jungle... you likely won't have cell service and wifi is only in the public spaces (but great near the front desk and by the pool). Also, you are in a National Park and power is limited at night.

    If you're visiting Tikal, stay here! There are shuttles from to the hotel from the Flores airport, you just need to contact (email/whatsapp) the hotel to schedule. We enjoyed our hotel room, the restaurant (very convenient), and staying in the Jungle is a fun experience! We saw so many animals onsite including monkeys (with babies), a fox, macaws, and many other birds. The pool is delightful on hot afternoons after (or before) visiting Tikal! Our room had two double beds, attached bathroom with a shower, mosquito netting, and screens on all of the windows. It was cool at night and with the fan on, we were very comfortable. Finally, if you have any small animal visitors (lizards, etc.), contact the front desk and they'll move them for you (thanks to the staff for their help)! The front desk will help you arrange tours of Tikal and gave us transportation recommendations. You will need to buy the tickets to Tikal, and we just did this online and took screenshots to show the park officials. The entrance to Tikal is right outside the driveway to the hotel. What a fun experience!

    The pool area needs a bit of updating and the service at the pool was sporadic. Check in can sometimes take a while. The film was good in the evening but would be good to include more films e.g. wildlife in the park.

    The location! So nice to be able to walk back to the lodge after a day in the park. Rooms were lovely with monkeys swinging around outside the balconies. Restaurant food was good and service quick. Nice to have a separate bar. The shuttle back to the airport was good value.

    Over priced. We paid $415 for one night in their master suite. The room was fine and AC worked. The water in the jacuzzi smelled like wet dog and the water from the shower also smelled bad. I would have been ok with all of this at a price point of $200-$250. Breakfast not even included for $415

    Location was fantastic. Right inside the Tikal grounds. Air conditioning was good. WiFi strong. Food and cocktails at the restaurant were good. Staff was helpful with setting up a private tour of Tikal.

    the shower in our room was horrible! boiling water (most of the time) or very cold. We couldn’t shower our baby as it was dangerous. The pool was very dirty.

    Pool needs renovating. The drink price was not nice, the hotel is connected via road to town, it can deliver water easy, no need to mark up the price of every drink so much... I would like that to be in the room price, not the drinks, it is hot jungle enviromnet, and it is not a nice...

    Tikal is 10/10 location, amazing, you can easy spend multiple days there. The hotel is nice, clean and has a cool setup. Amazing nature and scenes to see.

    The pool could have been cleaner.and more chaise lounges are needed on the pool deck.

    The location was wonderful. You felt away from it all in the heart of the jungle. After the electricity went off at night, the darkness was intense, allowing the jungle sounds to be dominant.. The restaurant was good and the service was quick. The bungalows were clean and comfortable. The location close to the Tikal ruins was a real plus.

    The location of the hotel is fantastic as it is right next to the Tikal Park entrance. Food at the restaurant is amazing with a great selection of foods both native options and international and super tasty. Beds super comfy and the overall vibe of the place is fantastic and so unique. The staff were very helpful throughout my stay and even made a local tea called ‘Te De Pimiento’ to help with my sickness which I was suffering from the day before I arrived at the hotel over in Lake Atitlan.

    A bit pricey, but you’re paying for the location.

    We had the standard room with a private bathroom which was comfortable and clean. The staff at Jungle Lodge were great at arranging us a round trip shuttle from Flores to the lodge and booking us for their sunrise and archeology tour (Jose was a great guide!!). They also had cold towels ready for us after the tour which was an excellent touch after a hot day outside. Despite reading the reviews on their food, we found our pasta dishes to be fine! They were basic, but hey—you’re in the jungle! If you are a light sleeper, you may want to bring earplugs. Otherwise, be prepared to listen to howler monkeys throughout the night!
