This is an amazing property from a location and design point of view. The only drawback is that there is no parking, or any arrangement by the property for parking elsewhere. They just suggested a car park that was about 3 blocks away. If you are not travelling with a car it won't matter.

Quality design and furnishings, beautiful central court garden with fountains, a veritable oasis. Makes you feel at home. Great breakfast served around the courtyard in front of your room. Doesn't have a bar or restaurant, but who cares when you have so many options around you. Staff are great.

This boutique hotel was a true gem. Everything about was excellent. I was there as a solo traveler. I felt very safe at this property. The staff was friendly and looked out for your needs. The hotel was beautiful, my room was perfect. It does get a little stuffy, as they don’t have AC, but it’s on old building, so they accommodate with a standing unit. The location is great, you can walk everywhere. I highly recommend this hotel

Very beautiful and unique hotel steps away from the arch. Amazing location and great customer service. We absolutely loved the breakfast. One comment that I will make pertains to guests having breakfast outside of your room windows at 8am which woke us up. I think guests should be encouraged to eat outside of their own room or in the common area instead of 3 feet away from our front door very early in the AM having conversations of which we could hear every word. I know this is hard to manage but maybe there should be a reserved sign?

The property was beautiful with each room offering a unique look/feel. Our room was huge and looked like part of a museum! San Rafael Hotel is right around the corner from El Arco de Santa Catalina and the main area of Antigua but as soon as you step inside the property, you escape the noise from the street as it is very calm and quiet. The owner and the entire staff were very friendly, professional, and accomodating. Having delicious breakfast (with many great options to choose from the menu) outside of your room overlooking the courtyard garden and fountain is a must. I highly recommend San Rafael Hotel and will be back for sure.

A San Rafael Hotel Review San Rafael Hotel is a truly lovely place. I stayed here with my dear friend, Wayne, in 2015. It’s just as beautiful and magical as it was then. The atmosphere is serene with a courtyard full of beautiful, unique plants and flowers. There are even a few hummingbirds flying by and stoop for some sugar water. The owners are very gracious and kind, as are the staff. In a word, the hotel is exquisite. I’m so happy I found it! Charming Candles Wayne Ron Breakfast Insulated Pot of coffee in so don’t have to keep asking for more, stays hot Serene atmosphere Art, thoughtful, keeping historical aspects Curated Hummingbird Colonial tradition

I cannot imagine a better place to stay in Antigua. A few hundred yards from the famous Antigua Arch, the staff was above and beyond expectations 24/7. They found us a Mayan tour guide for the city walk and the next day out to the Iximché Ruins, we saw an actual Mayan ritual by people doing their way if life - ie not a show for tourists. There weren’t any there. Back at Hotel Rafael, Ray and his partner built a little piece of perfection from excellent breakfasts, indoor ponds, and scores of candles. Amazing atmosphere. And amazing art decor.

San Rafael exceeded all our expectations. The location is right around the arch. This is not a five star hotel, but it's so much more. The owner clearly put a ton of their own touch to create this beautiful space. The room and the rest of the place is just exquisite. Staff is attentive and maintain the ground and room beautifully. Everywhere we looked was something to admire. Breakfast is fantastic and includes. Yes, there is no AC, so on a hot day you'll want the windows open for airflow, and because the windows open into the courtyard, you lose a little bit of privacy. But if that stops you from booking, then it's your loss. There are only 7 rooms and they don't let people just wander around, so the privacy loss is minimal. We have traveled all over the world, and hands down best place we have stayed.

We loved this beautiful small hotel with wonderful gardens & fountains. Breakfast was delicious, especially the French toast. Excellent overall. Would love to return! [One tiny negative: The delightful small table covered with a tablecloth for breakfast was fabulous, except on the days when someone else was breakfasting in front of our door (privacy issue), & we were set up in front of the next room.]
