GOOD HOTEL ANTIGUA
Good Hotel Antigua is the conceptual heart of the Good Group: premium hospitality with a cause. Imagine a former private mansion in the center of UNESCO-protected Antigua, Guatemala that was transformed into a stylish boutique hotel. Its unique atmosphere blends local 'colonial' inspiration with Remko's signature minimalistic style. Re- purposed materials, symbols, colors and objects tell stories about the craftsmanship and culture of their makers. Good Hotel connects you with the destination, offers a premium hotel experience and the opportunity to do something good for the local community.
