We loved our stay at Hotel Genessis! The hotel is absolutely gorgeous, the pictures don’t do it justice. This hotel was one of the highlights of our time in Antigua. Staff was very friendly and helpful and available 24/7. The breakfast made to order each morning was absolutely delicious. The rooms were beautiful, clean, quiet, and comfortable. The beds were soft and the air conditioner worked wonderfully. There is also rooftop access with amazing volcano views and the interior of the hotel is just breathtaking. The hotel is a little outside of the center of town at a dead end street, so it’s very quiet. The location is still convenient and you can easily get to the center of everything in about a 15 minute walk or 5 minute Uber. I would definitely stay here again and was only disappointed that our stay here wasn’t longer!

A nice little hotel in Antigua

The hotel is very pretty and the pictures show that. But it's several blocks away from the main square which means walking over the rocky streets which we did several times a day - or renting a taxi or tut tut. The morning breakfast was nice with coffee so you don't have to travel. The beds were not too comfortable and I would give it an overall 6 out of 10.

Beautiful patio!

Basic hotel with pretty colonial flourishes. The central patio is exceptionally beautiful--too bad you can't sleep there in a hammock. Hotel breakfast is nothing to write home about--best part is the coffee, orange juice and Bundt cake. Be sure to take a shower very early in the morning as hot water is not dependable. No hotel restaurant or bar or pool. About 5 blocks from the main plaza.

This hotel is amazing! It’s only a 10-15 minute walk from the main plaza. The area is nice and quiet. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and the price is a lot cheaper than staying closer to the plaza. The courtyard is stunningly beautiful with all the plants and flowers. I have never seen anything like it. The rooms are very spacious and clean. There is a rooftop where you get a beautiful view of the city and the volcanoes. Don’t think about it twice and book it!

The hotel has potential to be a great place but it has no amenities at all. Unfriendly staff . Has a great court yard but is useless. There is no place to rest and enjoy the beautiful nature
