Situated in San Juan La Laguna and with Volcano Atitlan reachable within 26 km, El Chirris B&B features a tour desk, non-smoking rooms, a garden, free WiFi throughout the property and a terrace.

Guests at the hostel can enjoy an à la carte breakfast. Exceptional hostel: close to the pier, spotlessly clean, towel and hot shower included, good little kitchen (even with smoothie and coffee maker - bring your own coffee), comfy beds and quiet in spite of being so central. Do yourself a favour and book a couple nights here because they fill up quickly (4 bed dorm), and you will love it :) Andrea the owner is a wonderful host and speaks perfect English to help with your queries - on my first night the wind was CRAZY and blew something over on the building site nextdoor which leaked water into the hostel. The floor flooded but I as soon as I told Andrea, she sorted it out right away. Very professional!

Mandalas Hostal is situated in San Pedro La Laguna and has a terrace. Free WiFi is featured.

A kitchen with everything you need and a dining area.

Great view of lake Atitlan and the surrounding mountains and volcanoes! Everyone that works there is super cool and friendly, and makes you feel like you belong and are welcome. There is a bathroom on each floor and I never had to wait for it more than a couple of minutes. Hot shower. Really comfortable bed! And the layout of the room (private) was way cuter than it looked in the pictures. Even though you can hear all the nearby parties, it doesn't stay loud late at night because everything in that area shuts down pretty early and it isn't on the main strip, and the hostel itself is super chill. The rooftop hangout spot is a lovely and super comfortable place to relax with a view of the lake. The wi-fi works well, the staff will help you plan anything you want to do and answer all your questions, and I felt super safe.
