This small hostel is in a good location to walk to Antiguas main sites. It has a friendly atmosphere and the roof terrace makes a great space for relaxing after a long day site seeing. The hostel is unbeliveably clean and the staff don't appear to ever stop cleaning! The free breakfast is amazing too! There is a massive selection... More

Booked ahead and glad I did as I got beautiful room #7 for 4 days. Very busy when I arrived mid-week in May. Privacy is great upstairs, and downstairs dorms do not seem too crowded. Really quiet for the most part, so if done with the party scene this is the place for you. Staff amazingly helpful and uber clean... More

This was a great place to stay. We were here early in Semana Santa so it was pretty expensive (about $50 per night for a double room). The place overall was great - friendly staff, super clean, tasty breakfasts, good location and nice terrace.

We stayed for a few nights in April. Yellow House is a very nice place. We had never stayed anywhere that had shared bathrooms before, and it wasn't a problem--spotless. Breakfasts were great. The tour booking company in the front lobby is very competitive price wise, and convenient. The staff was very helpful and friendly.

Me and a friend stayed at yellow house a few weeks back for two nights. The hostel is in a good location, and like the other reviews say they have a great breakfast included in the price. One down side was our room; we stayed in the private room just between the dorm/reception and the kitchen and were woken up... More

Room was clean & uncluttered with a beautiful balcony area overlooking the cobbled streets with fantastic views of the surrounding volcanoes. Staff were very helpful & friendly. Breakfast was an incredible feast , wide choice of food. Communal areas kept clean. A great place to relax & explore Antigua from. Would definitely return x

The Yellow House in Antigua is one of the best hostels in the world! Accommodation is comfy and great value and a massive buffet breakfast is provided each day! It also acts a travel agent and can organise all the attractions you want to do for you! They were very helpful for us especially when one of our urgent taxis... More
