Jungle Lodge, Tikal

Jungle Lodge is a superbly located lodge within the national park close to Tikal ruins. Built on the site of the first scientific camp housing archaeologists exploring the ruins, the site dates back 63 years. Now offering 49 rooms and suites, the hotel pays homage to its surroundings and beginnings with designs influenced by the surrounding forests and previous archaeological explorers. Its open-air restaurant brings you closer to the tropical rainforest and flavours of Guatemala. With very few accommodation options as close to the ruins as Jungle Lodge, it makes it the preferred place to stay for early sunrise tours.
