If you are looking for eco tourism, chances are that you want to be as close as possible to one of the four national parks or protected areas that are around or nearby the city. There is no doubt that the most famous of the protected areas around La Ceiba is Pico Bonito National Park, a magnificent rugged area which is home to some of the most bio diverse ecosystems in Central America. It also happens to be one of the areas with more options for the traveler to spend the night within the Park itself or in its area of influence.

Most of the options available are actually within the Cangrejal River Valley, where you can find a variety of small lodges, inns, hostels and eco jungle lodges where you can spend the night. In my humble opinion, this area is your best option if you are looking for a place where to stay in La Ceiba. The Cangrejal River Valley is only 6 miles outside of La Ceiba, and offers direct access to both Pico Bonito and Nombre de Dios National Parks, which are separated naturally by the Cangrejal River itself. With over 10 different options where to stay in, you will find one that is perfect for you. A complete list of options can be found in www.cangrejalriver.com .

If you check out different travel related web pages, such as tripadvisor, you will note that the top three rated bed and breakfasts and inns in La Ceiba, and the top two specialty lodging options in La Ceiba are located within the Cangrejal River Valley. This can only confirm the fact that the best place where to stay in La Ceiba is at the Cangrejal River. http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotels-g292023-La_Ceiba_Atlantida_Department-Hotels.html

Although it’s true that many business persons prefer to stay in the large, international franchise hotels, more and more world travelers are looking for smaller, family run hotels for a more authentic experience. The difference between both options is vast, and while the international franchises offer a comfort zone for travelers that require a “good address” that will give them certain prestige during their business trips, many travelers are looking for a more down to earth experience, to understand the locals way of life, values and local foods.

There is no doubt that family run hotels are more on demand than they ever were before, and you can bet on the fact that the trend will continue to grow. One great advantage today is the fact that as a traveler, you can actually review the experience that other travelers have had at a particular hotel. A hotel owner or manager will surely rave about his property, but there is no doubt that he will have a biased opinion, he is, after all, promoting himself trying to get your business. This is why tools like Google plus pages for business will have a sustained growth; it gives both the owner and guests who are staying at a hotel a chance to express their views and share their experiences. For example, https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/106136395155047359489/+Lavilladesoledad/posts is a business page where you can see what guests have reviewed and compare it with what the owners say about their business!

Tripadvisor also offers a unique opportunity to read what the owners say about their business and compare this with the experience that the guests have had at their facilities share with you. http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g292023-d1603386-Reviews-La_Villa_de_Soledad_B_B-La_Ceiba_Atlantida_Department.html

Both offer great tools that have changed the way travelers decide where they will stay in their next vacations. They have also supported the growth of the family run hotels that arrived as a trend and will surely remain for years to come.

In La Ceiba, most hotels are actually family businesses, and at the current time, we do not have big international franchise hotels to offer, however not all of these family run hotels actually have the loving touch of the family that owns them.

The family run hotels in La Ceiba that are truly run, with a hands on always present attention from the family that owns and runs them are not very common, and you can generally find them by reading through the comments that guests leave in the reviews where they share about their experience.

We, at La Villa de Soledad B&B, put pride into being one of the family run hotels in La Ceiba, and you will be hard pressed to find another option in La Ceiba that offers the tender loving care that we offer to our guests. We love having guests stay with us, and share our home, time and friendship with them. If you are looking for a family run hotel in La Ceiba, come to La Villa de Soledad and relax in nature with us! Hope to see you soon!

According the tripadvisor, the leading travel web site, five of the top 9 best hotels in La Ceiba are in the Cangrejal River Valley! Trip Advisor separates the lodging facilities in 3 large groups: hotels, bed and breakfast and inns, and specialty lodging. The top 3 of 29 bed and breakfasts and inns in La Ceiba are all three in the Cangrejal River Valley, (http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotels-g292023-La_Ceiba_Atlantida_Department-Hotels.html) and the top 2 of 12 specialty lodging alternatives are also on the Cangejal River!

This is a rather large percentage; however it is no surprise that travelers prefer to stay in these hotels! The truth is that they are all mostly small, personally run and operated by the owners and in one of the best locations in Central America: The Cangrejal River Valley! This seems to be the perfect formula for the best hotels in La Ceiba!

Best of all is the fact that tripadvisor bases its evaluation not on its staff, but on the travelers themselves, who share their travel experiences with the traveling community and are therefore as objective as you can expect them to be.

The Cangrejal River Valley is not only beautiful, it offers outstanding outdoor activities, such as the best white water rafting in Central America and the Caribbean, outstanding hiking, out of this world bird watching, and a lovely river which usually has crystal clear waters, with a pleasant temperature around the year. Guests staying in the Cangrejal River Valley have such a fantastic experience, that they consistently rave about the accommodations where they are staying, and consistently rate the properties here as the best hotels in La Ceiba.

In the end, there is no doubt that when you are traveling on vacation, the location of your accommodations is most important. Staying in a lovely, luxurious hotel in the middle of a dump will make for a lousy experience; staying in a nice hotel in outstanding surroundings and with many activities to choose from will make for the best hotel in the world!
