El Convento Boutique Hotel
(5 stars)Immerse yourself in Antigua’s past, by booking a suite at this hotel, opposite the 18th-century Capuchin convent. El Convento has a domed cupola, brick vaulted ceilings, exposed stone walls, cedar-beamed ceilings, hand-crafted doors and textiles, spiral staircases, fine art pieces and a central courtyard where a century-old Tempixque tree still stands. In many ways, it’s evocative of a bygone era, but with the benefit of luxe mod cons like hot tubs, a chic lap pool, fluffy robes, air con and designer toiletries. The roof terrace and wine cellar are highlights for those who enjoy a glass of something special after a day’s sightseeing.
