Over

We are a non profit organization and social enterprise that funds Casa Guatemala; an impoverished region of Rio Dulce supporting over 30 indigenous villages with education, medical and nutritional services.

Backpackers Hotel and Restaurant/Bar is located in the heart of Rio Dulce under the famous bridge, and we are only 5 min ride from the bus station.

Our hostel has basic eco-style accommodations which offer affordable rates, and friendly staff. We also have a beautiful dock for swimming on the river, and also where we book tours/shuttles for our guests to explore the area. We have basic rooms in a beautiful location. We have a book swap area, foyer area with wifi, and free drinking water. We do NOT have a kitchen for our hostel guests at this time. We do have a fridge for our guests to store their food in during their stay. Please note that we have loud music in the bar on Thursdays Friday and Saturdays until 1am with Karaoke and a DJ for singing and dancing! We also make the best Michelada in town! Our staff can help you to reserve boat or bus transportation and we have a wall size map of the area so you can plan your next adventure!

Samenvatting van reizigersbeoordelingen

Hotel Backpackers Rio Dulce heeft een geweldige locatie aan het water met een aanlegsteiger om te zwemmen. Het personeel is vriendelijk en behulpzaam, en privékamers zijn betaalbaar. Houd echter rekening met mogelijk geluid van de nabijgelegen brug en af en toe luide muziek, en sommige ruimtes hebben mogelijk renovatie nodig.

Very friendly owner, nice view. But no sheets to cover you at night, brown water out the tap, loud music at the bar but didn’t notice other guests, bugs, no lockers. Though i think no one will touch your stuff.. I chose to be stinky because I didn’t want to risk brown water out of the shower as well. 2 nights was too long.

the hotel has become a little run down but considering its non profit organization- worth staying to support! plenty of character and plenty of cute cats! 😊

They really do play music until 1am on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. And then a rooster will wake you up at 4am. The curtains are almost entirely see through. There are also only two hooks in the room, so if you want anything to dry--swimsuits, swim towels, etc. consider bringing a clothesline to string up. Being so close to the river is amazing and this is definitely the cheapest place you'll find. Worth it for a few days for sure.
