Capital of Belize Hotels: Providing Many Places to stay in Belmopan

Belize City was raveged by a storm; however the storm could not destroy the character of the of those who lived there and those folks eventually decided to create a new city in a safer location. A tale like this would make a good book…and it would be based on a true set of events of what happened about forty years ago in a place just south of Mexico. This is the reality the capital of Belize – Belmopan.

Belize City, the former capital city located along the coast, was wrecked by a category 5 storm in 1961 so a new capital city was created further inland and it was named Belmopan. Like many other people, I too wanted to see the city that was built as a result of a concerted effort of its people. Fortunately, whenever visiting this new capital city there is a Belmopan hotel available to meet almost any taste.

There are many interesting things to see in the Belmopan area such as the Mopan river, the Blue Hole and ancient caves used by the Mayan and fortunately there are hotels in Belmopan located by these places.

If you are one of those who love adventure, you can find a host of Belmopan hotels located in the Jungle of Belize. So if you are a couple looking for a bit of romance or a group of students looking to study the rain forest there are hotels in Belmopan ready to meet your needs. Also, there are a host of bread and breakfast hotels in Belmopan that cater to the requirements of budget conscious travelers.

There are no 5 star hotels in the Belmpan area but there are still several places you can stay at with a high level of service. When traveling in the States that there things that you expect – wireless Internet, phone, TV, air conditioning, etc.  Most of the hotels offer many of the same services.  Those that do not usually provide a discounted price.

When you come to Belize for a visit make sure to consider staying at a hotel in Belmopan during your  stay.
