Unique property in a colonial Honduran town. The only challenge is that the streets are cobblestone, steep, and narrow. Be ready for this. The hotel was great, traditio al delicious Honduran breakfast, very nice owner/staff, and very clean. Not a cookie cutter place to stay - highly recommended. Near the Macaw Park, and Copan Ruins.

The room was confortable and clean with a nice balcony overlooking the forest. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful to keep you going all day. The hotel sits high on a hill with parking and an easy walk down to the center of town. Copan Ruins are just a few minutes away, flag a Tuctuc to take you.

This woman-owned hotel came with nature views, both in my balcony room and at breakfast. Breakfast each morning was huge and delicious. The room was very comfortable, clean, and had AC & a fan. The owner was there every day and she speaks both English and Spanish, so it was nice chatting with her. She also had suggestions for things to do in the area. I would highly recommend this hotel in Copan Ruinas, a charming and wonderful town with a lot to do.

Gorgeous property in a quaint town. The owner must be a plant enthusiast-the patio and surrounding area of the property were gorgeously done. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. Highly recommend.

What a nice little hotel this was! I stayed here with 5 family members recently on a visit to Copan Ruinas. The room was cozy and the beds were comfortable. The complimentary traditional breakfast was made fresh each morning and was delicious. Many thanks to the owner Blanca who was very accommodating and even waited up until 1:00 AM to check us in after bad traffic from Tegucigalpa turned our 8 hour drive into a 15 hour one. Offering a low room rate, great service and a great location make this a recommended stay for me.

I enjoyed my stay at Hotel La Escalinata recently. Blanca the owner was very friendly and keeps up with current events. I enjoyed talking to her. We had an issue with the AC one night but it was quickly fixed. I will stay at this hotel next time I visit Copán Ruinas. Also the view from the room was nice.

Definitely did not live up to the property ratings on Expedia.
Massively overpriced for what is essentially a basic property. Rooms were adequate but very basic, albeit clean.
The property is adequate (2.5 stars) with the back terrace and breakfast service bringing it up to 3 stars.

Blanca was amazing she went above and beyond to help she made our reservations at luna jaguar, recommended a great restaurant cafe via via, and was nice enough to let us put my father in laws insulin in the fridge. The room waa very clean and it was a great price i think we had the best room with a balcony in the front 😊 AC worked very well and my favorite HOT water! Almost stayed at Hacienda San Lucas but im glad we didn't this hotel is in a very good area with easy walking access to restaurants and stores with typical honduran clothing, purses, jewelry, etc. Highly recommend.

Tuvimos problemas con nuestro transporte y no pudimos llegar a tiempo, pero la dueña de la propiedad fue muy amable y accesible con los cambios que tuvimos que hacer. El hotel está ubicado un poco arriba del centro del pueblo, pero es muy fácil llegar en Tuk Tuk, la habitación estaba muy limpia y el lugar muy tranquilo. Tuvimos una excelente estancia en este hotel.
