This former private mansion has been carefully transformed into a modern retreat through collaborations with local craftspeople.

Adapting to the local Antigua/Guatemala design style, Good Hotel Antigua features a central, spacious garden that serves as a gathering spot and is visible throughout the hotel. This garden/terrace area leads organically to a “living room,” designed for guests to take in the sun while surrounded by greenery. The building itself showcases Dutch-inspired minimalism and features natural, durable, repurposed materials, including handcrafted wooden furniture and exposed wooden beams.

Good Hotel Antigua’s minimalist design emphasizes natural light and materials, setting it apart from the city’s traditional dark, colonial architecture.

In a city awash with traditional Guatemalan/colonial design, Good Hotel Antigua stands out for its light, minimalistic look and feel. The hotel’s color palette is defined by greenery, light wood, and whites, with softer touches in the rooms expressed through bespoke designer pieces, local ceramics, and warm textiles.
