Hello Marta, If you come through Chimaltenango (Carretera Interamericana) after passing Tecpan/Katok (Km 90) keep driving until Km116 a place called Las Trampas. Turn left here toward Godinez (about 15km of bad road). In Godinez turn left again toward San Lucas Tolimán (Patulul-Cocales). From Godinez to Toliman there are 15km, half of that of bad road. You will meet a T with a gas station (Santa Alicia) at the end of the road, turn right and keep driving until you read Hotel Toliman (parking lot and front desk to the left). If you decide to take the coast route try to drive with day light, cautiously, checking for all the "baches" (holes) on the road, specially from Km 89 to 105. Remember that aft Km 89 there is a turn to the left with traffic coming right in front of you (they have to stop...). This turn is to avoid crossing the towns of Siquinalá and Santa Lucía Cotzumalguapa. Keep right on the road at all times -there is one part when suddenly the one way road becomes two ways. At Km113 is Cocales turn right to cross Patulul, and keep driving for another 28 kms to the hotel. About one third of this part has also holes to watch for. This explanation sounds worst hopefully that in reality. The reward comes at the end of the road, where magical Lake Atitlan awaits your visit, and our staff will be ready to spoil you. We are looking forward to your visit, and appreciate it very much in anticipation.

Thank you Juliethe for your answer and kind words. The restaurant usually open from 7am to 9pm, but we accommodate to our guests needs or wishes. Our night guard who is a very helpful person always ready to please, can make coffee and warm bread any time, as early as 4am or before when people leaves to the volcanoes. Sometimes around 1am he is making coffee for early travelers. If asked the night before as Juliethe suggested, breakfast can be served before 7. For groups of surgeons and other groups, breakfast is ready at 5:45am. It will be a privilege to serve your needs.

Hola! La mejor ruta desde la capital es por la costa (como que fuera a Mazate y cruza en Cocales). Esa carretera está en buen estado, excepto por los últimos kms entre Patulul y San Lucas que tienen baches, pero pasa perfectamente un sedan. Los esperamos!

Hi Glendy. The wi-fi is good in all of the rooms except two where we sometimes have problems. Tomorrow we have plenty of room in the hotel and can accommodate you in a comfortable room with good wi-fi. If the wi-fi isn't acceptable we will be happily move you to a room with where the wi-fi is acceptable. I should let you know that tomorrow we are are undertaking maintenance and repairs in the kitchen and may be working all day. Unfortunately we will definitely not be able to serve lunch. Perhaps by dinner we will be open. We are very sorry for the inconvenience. The rest of the hotel including the deck and bar area will be open. If we do not open for dinner we will provide you with a special rate. We will definitely be able to serve you breakfast on Thursday. You can e-mail us or call us. Our contact details are on our website. Best wishes, Alexis
