Wow! Amazing place to relax in Panajachel before you take a 25q boat to the rest of lake atitlan. This hostel is right next to a boat dock so is a great place to move from , also shuttles will drop you off directly here too. A great place to relax, play pool, play table tennis, make a fire in a teepee, read in the library, find a quiet nook, lay under the trees. Beautiful place, great staff, friendly, good food, reasonable prices, perfect base! 10/10!

Pésimo. Ahora le cambiaron el nombre a SOCIATEL. Pero de igual NO LO RECOMIEMDO!!! Mal servicios. Hay mejores opciones en los alrededores. La calle para entrar la están reparando y hay que dar una gran vuelta. Las habitaciónes no están tan mal el resto no vale la pena

I ended up staying here because I missed the last Boat to go to my Airbnb in Santa Cruz. However, if I would have known how much I would have enjoyed my entire day being at the Selina. I would have spent my entire week here. I was in a private room with Private bathroom and balcony, and for that Price. I also had an air conditioner and beautifully hot showers. The staff was extremely helpful, allowing me to check in quickly, and get right to sleep. After a long day of being on the road driving through the mountains in heavy fog. After my check-in, I was very happy to see they had a Late Night kitchen, (which in at the lake , Late Night means open until after 9pm) With many different options . I would’ve liked it for there to be at least one or two more traditional Guatemalan options, but I was very happy with the Caesar salad and hamburger. The prices at to the restaurant were reasonable , especially considering how the pricing and mini Selina hotels can be, but most importantly, this Stuff was extremely friendly and conversation and attentive. I can say the same thing about The breakfast, where I had the eggs Benedict, which is actually served on toast instead of English muffin . I will definitely stay here again. In my future travels to Lake Atitlan.

The property needs some urgent upgrades; dated furniture; very old towels and bedding; bathroom renovations; better care of the garden. Swimming pool was dirty, no one goes in the water. Staff is nice and friendly. Breakfast options at the restaurant were good and tasty. But I wouldn’t recommend this place until needed upgrades and renovations are completed. Customers should not get used to pay for poorly maintained properties.

We booked a double room and were very pleased with this. Well decorated and clean. The bathroom could do with a revamp but everything worked well. The staff were excellent and very friendly and helpful with any questions. There is a good bar / restaurant on site. It's noisy at night - but that's from the dogs barking! Would stay here again.

Nice place with nice employees. The dorms weren’t the cleanest and the shower broke. It would clog up nearly enough to spill out of the shower.

Overpriced, but good location My cousin and I stayed here for just one night at the end of our stay on Lake Atitlán. Our room (one of the teepees) was great and had everything we needed. The communal bathrooms were often out of toilet paper and paper towels. The restaurant/bar was expensive but the food was good. The bottom of the pool was covered in algae and no one was swimming while we were there. But the location is great for exploring Pana. Overall we would recommend but feel like the price is high for what you get.
