Boutique hotels in Perquín

Perquín is a small town in Morazán, in the mountains near the Honduran border, and was a stronghold of the guerrilla movement during El Salvador's civil war. The Museum of the Revolution, a simulated guerrilla camp and the stories of those who lived here make it one of the country's most moving places to visit. The setting is cool, green and quiet.

Where to stay

There is little in the way of boutique accommodation. Hotel options are simple local inns, with Hotel Perkin Lenca the only property in the search results that is named in the town. Expect basic comforts and friendly service rather than design.

Good to know

Perquín is a long drive from San Salvador, around four hours, so it suits travelers with time. Nearby, the Río Sapo protected area offers short hikes and swimming. Evenings can be cold at this altitude. Check current official travel advice before traveling.
