Hotel Paradise Inn, a two-story stone building with red tile roof, sits along a cobblestone street in Panajachel, Guatemala.

Panajachel sits on the northern shore of Lake Atitlán in Sololá Department, serving as the lake's main gateway for visitors arriving from Guatemala City and Antigua. Small hotels like this one line the town's cobblestone streets, many built with local stone and offering a handful of rooms geared toward travelers heading on to lakeside villages such as San Pedro La Laguna and Santa Cruz La Laguna. The town's grid of volcanic-stone roads dates largely from mid-20th-century growth tied to tourism around the lake.
