We stayed at the Jaguar Inn purely for it's location in the Tikal National Park as we wanted to do the sunrise tour. We paid $60 for a double bed with private bathroom. You are purely paying for location and the priviledge of staying in the park. The accommodation itself is very basic and tired. Be aware they don't have... more

Stayed at the Jaguar Inn as the location is great. But the receptionist is something else... he is so RUDE!!! I wanted to see the room before paying for it, and he denied to show it to me, he wanted the money first! Also the food is not that great and the service very slow... Shame, the hotel could be... more

Two years ago my husband and I stayed at The Jungle Lodge in Tikal and loved everything about it. When we tried to book a room this year The Jungle Lodge quoted us an outrageous price, so we turned to the Jaguar Inn based on TripAdvisor reviews we found now and before. I guess you really do get what you... more

A friend and I had booked a stay at the Jaguar Inn for two nights. We really liked how close the hotel was to Tikal, but had a bad experience with receptionist, who was rude and condesending to us. We were told our room would be ready at 2, which it was not. Also, the man was very rude to... more

This is a very convenient hotel for visiting Tikal, particularly at sunrise, as it's right next to the park entrance. We met other travellers who'd bussed in from Flores for sunrise and we were very pleased we'd chosen to stay at the Jaguar Inn. Our room was fairly basic but comfortable, and there was a hammock on the patio outside... more

Tikal national park has only 3 hotels on its property and Jaguar Inn is one of them. It was relatively cheap $60 for a huge room with a king size bed. A strange thing about the room was that it didn't have any closet or shelves inside, so we had to store all our clothes on a bed and bedside... more

Keep in mind that Tikal doesn't lend itself to a luxurious stay. That being said, I thought that the Jaguar was a good choice. I stayed in several of the inns, and this was certainly the best. The food was good (much better than the nearby places!), the prices were reasonable. You can expect the electricity to run out in... more

This is a fine place located directly inside the Tikal Archeological Park. Do not expect luxury here, you are paying for the location, which is perfect if you want to experience the jungle up close and take advantage of staying close to the ruins. We stayed two nights at the only room of the inn that is not paired. Managing... more

This hotel is at the entrance to Tikal. I recommend staying at Tikal at least one night because there are less people, more animals and better light in the mornings and the evenings. However, I would try one of the other hotels. The service was quite slow and sometimes unfriendly. The food was at best bland and way overpriced. Fortunately,... more

The only budget option for non-campers in Tikal National Park is the small Jaguar Inn. Hammocks, tents, bungalows offer accomodation for every budget. The landscaping is not only lovely, it attracts a variety of wildlife: hummingbirds, pisotes, monkeys. But the true gem is the Inn's restaurant - now with WiFi and computers. When I guided in Tikal 30 plus years... more
