Fodor's Expert Review Hotel Vista al Lago
6 Av. 1–13, El Estor, Izabal, 18003, Guatemala
This hotel was once the general store that gave El Estor its name. Now run by the loquacious Oscar Paz, it has clean, cozy rooms. The wide wooden balcony is a great place to observe the town's waterfront. Before checking in, make sure the town hall next door has no plans for a dance; otherwise the thumping music will keep you awake until 4 am.
PROS
- good budget value
- friendly staff
- owner is a wealth of information about the area
CONS
- some street and music noise some evenings
