"We had an amazing experience at Barceló San Salvador. The hotel is very clean, well located, and offers a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. The staff truly makes the difference here—everyone is friendly, professional, and always willing to help. A special thank you to Leo and Iris, who went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. Their attention to detail, kindness, and outstanding service really stood out and made us feel at home. The food was great, the amenities were excellent, and the location is perfect—close to everything you need. It’s easy to see why this hotel is consistently rated among the top in the city, with guests especially praising its cleanliness, service, and location . We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting El Salvador!"

"Clean room. Stocked. Extra pillow. The breakfast was amazing all types of options. We enjoyed the juices freshly made. The chefs were super nice ask if we wanted an omlette made. Parking was easy . There is a mall entranced right in the hotel . Will definitely stay again, and recommend. "

"Swim up bar is a vibe and staff is great even if you're not confident in your spanish! "

"Cute Hotel and Very Clean. Oceanfront room had an amazing view and large balcony and was super clean. The entire staff was genuinely nice and sincere, from the gardener to the maintenance staff to the reception desk. I will definitely be back and will stay there again!"

"I had higher expectations for this hotel based on the ratings, but we were disappointed. First, the property is under construction. I wish they would have told us beforehand. Very loud hammering and metal grinding literally from 8 am to 5 pm! Needless to say, no peace and quiet to be had around the pool or restaurant. Additionally, the pool furniture was unclean with stains, and the amount of flies was bothersome (Not their fault). All of this made us wonder ,"Is this really supposed to be the best?". The main reason we chose this property was the saltwater pool, and they don't even maintain it! During our visit, high tide didn't reach high enough to turn over much water, so what we had were two stagnant, green pools. As if to throw it in our face, the neighboring property had a saltwater pool a little lower in elevation in pristine ocean blue condition. Overall, disappointment. We will not be coming back, and we don’t recommend this place. There are better properties on the beach for this price range"

"Perfect location for shops and dining and nightlife "

"Wi-Fi did not work most of the night and day. They claimed repairs were being done. But for over a week. At the end there was no electricity or even water. Therefore not sanitary. The staff was very sweet. It was fairly close to beautiful Playa Mahajual. The faulty, usually non-existent Wi-Fi prevented me from getting necessary work done. The breakfasts were good. The hotel is set in a beautiful oasis with Palm trees and a welcoming pool. Both the staff and guests were a pleasure to know. These issues can be resolved so as to make Hotel Mahajal a great hotel.

"Super friendly staff who’s ready to help with any and all requests. "
