Wow the property is gorgeous, and a 2 minute walk to the entrance to Tikal which makes it super convenient for popping into the park when you like and not having to wake up earlier than necessary to do the sunrise tour (highly recommend). You feel like you're in the jungle - we saw so many animals - yet no creepy crawlies in the rooms or common areas! Best of all worlds. We chose the share a bathroom option which I was nervous about but there are multiple individual stalls with toilets and showers so you're never really in a shared space or waiting or holding anyone up. Many food options and better than expected for a place with a basic monopoly on food options. Tasty breakfast and great lunch and dinner menu. Because of nationwide protests we worried about getting back to the airport and the hotel MADE IT HAPPEN. I mean, they got us around road blocks. It was amazing. Top tier support.

We stayed at the hostal with 2 single beds in our rooms (family of 4 with 2 teens). While basic (no AC and shared bathroom) it was a lovely stay. The rooms are just the right size. The shared bathroom and toilets are very clean and we never had to wait. Some people go hiking early in the morning in the park, some go later...so there were always showers available. The cleaning team was seen numerous times during our stay always cleaning so everything stayed neat and beautiful. The lodge (where you find the open restaurant, a bar and several sofa/armchairs where you can get wifi and work) is beautiful and is a few meters away from the rooms. The food was delicious and not overlypriced. Service was efficient and people very nice. The swimming pool has plenty of trees around and is a delight after a hot hiking morning. It is obviously not shaded around noon time but a quick deep can still refresh you a lot! We spent time reading in the shade of the trees. The whole place is very nice and it feels like you are in paradise.
Not much, maybe the fact that the hostal is so close to the main lodge and open restaurant that as soon as there is some activity you can be woken up. In the hostal there is only a mosquito net on the frame of the window but no glass window so you hear everything happening outside.

Fabulous location right next to Tikal entrance.
The lodge charged us for the sunrise tour but we booked the tour and paid separately. Then they said we wouldn’t get a refund for 20 days. I settled it through my credit card because 20 days is unreasonable.

Beautiful, aesthetically furnished, excellent staff, extremely clean, excellent location that could not be better. Tours offered at great price. Pick up and drop to Flores at reasonable cost was helpful. I think this is the best way to see Tikal. Tikal is such a beautiful place that it would be a pity not to stay within the forest to experience it and Tikal lodge is one of two properties that is within the forest area
Very poor to practically no options for vegans in their kitchen. To say I was starving would be an understatement. I liked everything else so much that I would still go back to this lodge but will carry adequate food with me next time

Jungle lodge is located right in the middle of Tikal, on walking distance to the Maya ruins. The hotel was super nice and staff very friendly. The guides were also very good and spoke English well. The cleaning staff was working all the time to make sure that the areas were free of insects, as the hotel is located in the middle of the jungle. Food was very nice and we appreciated cinema evening.
Our room was not sound proof and for the sunrise walk they dont take into consideration people are still sleaping. It were mainly tourists that woke us up but the staff could inform them bit better. Food and drinks were quite expensive.

The hotel is extremely well located right in the tickle park. The staff is friendly.. We booked the host hotel by mistake, but they could accommodate us the next day to move to a private room although we decided not to since the shared facilities were cleaning off and good enough for one more night The restaurant offers a decent choice of dishes and they are overall pretty good. I recommend the María cheesecake and tequila pie. That is more a lemon pie.
On the downside, the pool is extremely out of shape and would require a complete a redo.

Very close ( 100m)to the Tikal park entrance. You can spot howler monkeys and toucans on the property. Beds are comfortable and it’s truly heaven if you want to relax
No atmosphere in the evening, two of 3 bars never open. prices of food and drink are expensive compared to rest of Guatemala. Pool is in rough shape, needs paint and is peeling sand in bottom. They charge 7.8 Q to USD ( 7.6 @ time of writing) so bring cash do not pay with CC

Which I totally recommend to do in Tikal. It is really something. Just tell the reception and they will arrange that with super knowleged guide. The room was nice and clean, you can hear a jungle from your window. Shared bathroom was cleaned often so nice to use. They have a really great restaurant there, the food was always delicious. Also they do transport from Flores / airport so it's easy to reach. They stop on the main gate of the park, where you can buy your tickets. Really convenient. I would totally stay there again.

Amazing location and lovely, simple rooms. It was great to be right inside the park (a few minutes' walk from the entrance) and to make use of the pool. The showers were good and we always found them very clean. The restaurant is okay, more expensive than most but not so much that it put us off eating there. The breakfast was better value with coffee or juice included.
Unfortunately the hostal/hotel is significantly let down by the service, particularly in the restaurant. Many staff members were very rude and did not live up to the standards of other elements of the hotel. Most reviews so far this year mention the poor service so it seems little is being done to address this. We raised our concerns and were told it's being worked in.

1. The facilities and rooms were impeccably clean, even for a hostel with shared bathrooms. The bathroom facilities and showers were maintained to a high standard of cleanliness. 2. Nestled amidst the jungle within Tikal National Park, this hostel harmoniously integrates with its natural surroundings, showcasing a thoughtful design that respects the environment. You wake up every day listening the howler monkeys 🐒 3. The staff were attentive and went above and beyond, facilitating tour bookings to explore the Tikal Maya ruins.
The dining experience left much to be desired with excessively high prices for portions/quality that don't justify the cost, which may seem exploitative to non-USA or non-European tourists familiar with local prices. Additionally, the pool was not well-maintained.
