Excellent stay, great and helpful check in by Miss Alford, loved the complimentary welcome hot sauce. Simple but spacious room in a good location for a quick overnight in Belize City. Appreciated the quick turnaround on laundry service even on a one night stay. Thank you!

We loved the house, a wooden mansion dating back to colonial times, and our room passing down the feeling of times lost (n°2, afcing the reception). Yes, there's construction accross the street, but this is bound to be finished in 2026. The best, though, was the reception we received by both young ladies at the front desk, both extremely nice and helpful. Thanks!

We did not expect to be able to check in several hours early, but our room was just about ready, which we were so glad of! The room was exquisitely clean and the A/C was magically cool. I enjoyed the porch swing, the poolside beer, and the attentive service over my delicious breakfast the next morning. The complimentary bottle of Marie Sharp's hot sauce was a wonderful touch!

We stayed twice during our visit to Belize, as book-ends, in order to coordinate our flights. The staff was wonderful, the room was very nice, the grounds were clean, as well as the lovely pool area. The room was clean. The only complaint is that the restaurant was a bit less than we expected. It was fine, but the selections were a bit limited.

The Great House is very near to the Ferry terminal. Good - staff friendly, pool is excellent (suggest a couple of Umbrellas and maybe sunbed cushions), comfortable bed. Not so good - fridge didnt work, shower was faulty but fixed when advised to the Reception. Had breakfast one day which tbh wasnt great, overcooked scrambled egg. As there are no snacks or food available during day/evening we went next door to Fort George hotel if we needed anything when by pool, you are definitely missing a trick not having food available. Ive stayed at Great House 3 times now and tbh this trip was probably the last, Sorry but I just need more if stayi g for a few days

The front desk person was nice. The accommodations with stairs only was really bad with our luggage, carting it up three flights of steep stairs. The smell was unbearable like an old musty, place. We ended up leaving within the hour we couldn’t stand it any longer, so we stayed at another hotel.
