The Great House Inn

We had a wonderfully relaxing time at the Great House. As long as there are no cruise ships in port, the location is extremely quiet. It is walking distance to many nice restaurants and parks. The staff were immensely helpful and engaging. The room was old world quaint but updated for modernity - a fantastic combination in my experience. For those that do not like the franchise grab of hotel accommodations and prefer a more personal touch: this is the place to stay in Belize City.

We stayed at the Great Hotel for three nights as part of a dive trip and thoroughly enjoyed the visit. The wooden building has an interesting history and is lovely to explore, and while it is an old building it has modern additions to the rear (swimming pool/breakfast cafe etc.).|We checked in and went to our large spacious room with a large bathroom, air con. & ceiling fans, TV, coffee, water and safe. All was clean and comfortable. The room was quiet at night and we have absolutely no issues (although there is a construction site opposite) which unfortunately is removing the ocean view but that did not disturb us at all.|The Ours cafe & lounge, on the ground floor provided a lovely breakfast with continental and some cooked alternatives. |The hotel has a few restaurants nearby but Belize City itself has a somewhat limited offering of bars and restaurants but all in all, the Great Hotel was definitely very good…

The room I stayed in was absolutely lovely with an updated bathroom. The balconies at the Great House are the perfect places to relax while sipping on a glass of wine or a beer. The staff is very friendly and accommodating.

We stayed here one night prior to leaving for the airport the next morning. Its a good and safe option for this, and its very close to the ferry terminal. Despite stories of Belize City being dangerous, the area around The Great House Inn is safe, even at night. There are a couple restaurant options very close by. Rooms are large, and have an old British feel to them, though not very modern. I would stay here again if it was for a night.

What a great place to stay. The Caribbean Sea is one house away! Great for a drink before dinner, at the Inn or the Sea. Very friendly staff and very helpful. Next door is a great restaurant. Plenty of parking. There is even a pool. We will be back!

Stayed here for a couple of nights before my dive trip. Great location right near the Ft George pier. Very friendly staff and enjoyed the welcome banana. It was pouring rain on my check-in and it leaked a bit into my bathroom. Staff quickly moved me to another room without issue. Did not have breakfast included in my package, so cannot comment on that service. Rooms were very charming, well lit and internet worked great. Explored the local area by walking and felt safe in early evening. Would stay here again if I come back for the diving.

This place is awesome! Perfect location to get to the ferries, super nice staff, cute pool and breakfast, clean, and a little bit of quirky charm. Lots of gorgeous birds around. I read some reviews where it said it was loud and sketchy nearby and I disagree - when asked, the neighbors turned down their music right away and yes it’s an urban-island area so there’s youth activity at night but like… nothing to cry about. I will 100% be coming back here as my go-to port to the cayes. Felt inspired to right this after some lovely coffee and swim time while the local housekeeper and I Gary chatted about life and travel ☕️ 🌊 Thanks team!!!

To be honest was a little disappointed with my superior room as it very old fashioned, the lounge area was so hot, the fan did nothing. Bedroom had air conditioning though. Needs a full length mirror!|Lots of positives, an ironing board, water and bananas. Staff very nice. Shower was OK but could hear next door shower at 6 am in morning, actually thought it was my shower being turned on. |The pool and area was great and completely at odds with the house as its very modern.|Would I stay there again? Probably not
