This hotel is beautiful. The amenities are wonderful. The only problem is that if you can not do stairs, there is no elevator. Rooms are on the 2nd and 3rd floors.

We have been staying at The Great House since 2015 when we first visited Belize. Over the years the staff has always been welcoming, pleasant, friendly, and most accommodating. Rooms are very clean and they continue to upgrade. We look forward to returning again and again.

I know why it is called the Great House now. Old classic architecture and friendly staff. Close to ferry and nearby restaurants. We were there only a night before continuing on our journey but they made us feel comfortable and arranged an excellent taxi driver who gave us a tour and lesson on Belize history on the way to the hotel.
