( 7943-1453; 3a Av 9-12, Zona 1; s/d Q180/250, without bathroom Q80/100; )
Good-sized rooms with
a bit of furniture and super-hot showers. A policy of not letting the upstairs rooms until
the downstairs ones are full might see you on the ground floor.
HOTEL
Hotel La Favorita $$
( 7943-1175; 2a Av 10-15, Zona 1; r Q200, s/d without bathroom Q60/100; )
The real budget-watch-
er's choice, the rooms with shared bathroom here are a bit grim, but those with bathrooms
are good enough.
Hotel Portal de la Fe $$
( 7943-4261; 11 Calle 1-70, Zona 1; s/d Q250/450; )
One of the few hotels with any
real style in town. Subterranean rooms are predictably gloomy, but upstairs the situation
improves considerably.
HOTEL
Hotel Mahanaim $$
( 7943-1131; 10a Calle 1-85, Zona 1; r Q350; )
This establishment is on three levels
around a covered courtyard. Rooms are comfortable but plain. It wouldn't be such a good
deal if it weren't for the big covered swimming pool out back.
HOTEL
Hotel Legendario $$$
( 7943-1824;
www.hotellegendario.com
; cnr 3a Av & 9a Calle, Zona 1; r Q850; )
The fanci-
est hotel downtown goes all out on the services, right down to a separate kids' swimming
pool. Rooms are reasonable - big enough, with new beds, large windows opening onto a
grassy courtyard, and all the comforts you'd expect for the price.
HOTEL
Eating
Restaurant El Angel $$
( 7943-1372; cnr 11a Calle & 2a Av; mains Q45-60; 11am-10:30pm)
This main-street Chinese eat-
ery does all the standard dishes, plus steaks and a good range of
licuados
(milkshakes).
Home delivery is available.
CHINESE
Restaurante Calle Real $
(3a Av; mains Q30-60; 8am-10pm)
Typical of many restaurants here, this big eating-barn turns
out cheap meals for the pilgrims. It has a wide menu, strip lighting and loud TV.
