가텐 호텔(Garten Hotel)

Very nice boutique hotel located in El Zonte, great amenities love the private beach, great drinks at the pool bar and the food at PROA was delicious 😋 everyone st the hotel from security guards and employees are very kind and accommodating Highly recommended

Great hospitality, excellent bedding, super clean and well run. I’ve stayed at this hotel two times and both times exceeded expectations for an El Salvador hotel. The food and coffee / espresso is excellent. Highly recommend the shrimp tacos and Salmon

We had a fantastic 4 day stay in a villa. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The food was great and the infinity pool was perfectly situated to see the ocean. Even when the electricity went out (2x b/c of accident and storm), they were on top of it, letting us know when it would be back on. Jaime (waiter) in the restaurant provided 5-star service; the kitchen staff overall, were luxury standard. The villa's amenities were perfect, everything you need for a family/group of friends, spacious and updated; the walk to the main building is a short walk, but the golf cart is always available. The security was 24/7, and we felt safe at all times. Love this place, will definitely be back!

Love this place we had great time the only recommendation is if you stay at villas is separate from main hotel they should have 2 Golf cars to transport guest back in fourth we had to Waite long at time. To go back to main lobby and hotel and back to villa. Other then that we love it!

What a stellar place to stay. I am already thinking about when we will return. From asking when we want housekeeping to whether we want breakfast delivered, the Garten staff was absolutely on it! They went above and beyond to ensure we were the most comfortable. Compliments to the entire staff from the pool team to the restaurant team. Stay here, you will absolutely not regret it!

Clearly the nicest hotel in this area. We stayed in the main facility, not the villas down the street. The room was immaculate, large, with a supremely comfortable firm king bed. The air conditioning was strong. The staff were unfailingly polite. The included breakfast is delicious and can be enjoyed on the terrace overlooking the pool below and the ocean further down. There were a few tacky extra charges (milk with coffee, extra syrup with the french toast), but the costs were so minimal that they did not detract from the experience. The parking area and the small hotel itself are well secured. The beach is beautiful. The main downside of the trip is not attributable to the hotel but is an important word of caution to anyone coming to El Salvador -- the sanitation is clearly very much third world. Nearly everyone in our group of about a dozen (the rest of whom stayed at at AirBnB villa 10 minutes away) got badly ill with the typical undeveloped country stomach ailments. El Salvador is very welcoming and inexpensive, but we will not return since there are so many wonderful places around the world where the risk of illness is much lower (Costa Rica being a prime example). Hopefully El Salvador uses the influx of tourism money to get the sanitation practices right.

I had an amazing stay!!! This hotel is a few minutes away from the tourist area, it’s nestled in the local neighborhood and has a beautiful infinity pool with private access to the beach. The penthouse is absolutely beautiful, comfortable bed and clean accommodations. The patio tub is even more amazing in person. This is a boutique hotel, small and intimate. Service was great, we ordered breakfast in our room. Drinks by the pool. The only issue we had was a miscommunication about a massage we had scheduled, the hotel management took responsibility and made adjustments for us. I would love to come back. Breakfast is included with your stay, order the traditional breakfast it’s delicious.

Beautiful property with good food and OK drinks. We did our last two days in El Salvador here and it was perfect If you want a room with a view, call to make your reservation. Most rooms face the parking lot. Bring at least two bottles of champagne, wine, or whatever you like to drink. Drinks aren't cheap or strong and the hotel isn't walking distance to anything and while you can drive somewhere the vibe is so nice you won't want to.

I really enjoyed my time at Garten Hotel and El Zonte! What a wonderful community and genuinely friendly helpful staff! Everything ran smoothly! Excellent food! I learned to make pupusas with the head chef! The hotel staff was helpful organizing activities IE going to ruta de lad Flores and hiking the highest volcano. They were helpful organizing on time airport Transfers to and from the hotel and also the required COVID testing the day before departure to the USA onsite which was convenient. The room was very comfortable and spacious for a solo traveller or two travellers. The room and building in general is in great condition. The menu was good, the only think I could think to improve on the menu would be at least a couple vegetarian or vegan options. Alvaro and Diego were very helpful and fun to chat with. Laba is a great driver and tour guide for the volcano hike and Ruta de las Flores. Rodrigo is an excellent bar tender and makes the best fresh Limonatas!!! I really liked the breakfast burrito!! Next time I will stay longer and try the villas! A week just isn’t long enough!!’
