"We stayed in Room #1. The view was exceptional looking at the volcanos. It really wasn’t very noisy. In Pana there are a lot of dogs in the streets and they can be quite noisy. If you are looking for a five star hotel, this isn’t the place. But I would stay there again on our next trip to the lake. There is a little swimming pool but my wife and I didn’t use it. Bring your own washcloths as they are a rare commodity when traveling in central and South America."

"GREAT LOCATION. Right on the lake. We had amazing view of volcanoes and lake from the room. The property was clean."

"Just 1 of the waiters had a preference to serve better the euro american custumers. When i asked for the same drink in a bottle he replied by saying no glass containers near the pool which is safer but them were getting glass bottles so he had no choice but to give the same sarvice but he wasn't happy.. so treating others better is wrong you as Guatemalan must respect people of all walks of life .paying customers deserve that."

"If you’re going to be charging US dollars the room needs to reflect the price. The room itself needs to be updated a lot. It looks like they just do what they have to do to keep it running. The Carpet needed to be replaced 10 years ago. The condo seems rundown. No ac, and it gets humid at night as the Windows barely opened a tiny bit and there is no AC. You can’t leave the back door windows open cause all the bugs will come in. The communication is terrible. Good luck, someone helping you. The number I was given to call, never replied or answered me. So I went on Expedia and spoke to someone who even then took hours to reply. The direction to Skyview was incorrect, the Uber driver wanted to leave me in the middle of nowhere Because he couldn’t find the directions to Skyview and no one heard of it. The actual place is called the Rivera Attilan. Upon arrival, no one there could help us because apparently this place is a private owner. So there is no concierge. There’s no towels for the pool. There’s no place to leave your luggage. You just have to thug until you get your room at 2 PM. You’re far from the main city. It’s about a 30 minute walk or you need to take the Launcha, a “boat”. finding a tuk tuk from there is hard. Probably better if you have your own car. They have one restaurant there the food is not good and it is super expensive! Go into town to eat better food and better price. The one good thing I can say is the view is spectacular.I’m Not coming back."

"You need to walk to main street"

"Location is a tiny bit out of Pana but is more quiet. The views were amazing and such a great value for the location and views! Would be saving this hotel for when I return!"

"Socialtel in Lake Atitlan was AMAZING! It is a beautiful place, very helpful kind staff, clean, spacious, and in a great location. They have daily activities and you get a free welcome cocktail. My favorite part was breakfast! Where else can you get free breakfast of steak and eggs?! Ooof, elite experience! Will definitely recommend or come back! Thank you so much!"

"The gardens and views as well as restaurants and cafes are excellent! The service is very good. The rooms are basic and need some updating. The doors are hard to close with a key. The comforters are outdated and need to be replaced. The towels barely dry, so thin and old. If you are expecting luxury this is not the place. If you are looking for location. Views, food, clean accommodations and service this is your place!"
