Cara Lodge – Georgetown, Guyana
Step into history at Cara Lodge, one of Georgetown’s most treasured landmarks and oldest wooden buildings.
For history lovers, business travellers, and curious explorers alike, Cara Lodge offers a distinctive experience rooted in the heart of Guyana’s capital.
Originally built in the 1840s as two grand colonial homes, the property has a storied past. It once housed Georgetown’s first Lord Mayor and has welcomed an illustrious list of guests over the years, including King Edward VIII in 1923 before his historic abdication, President Jimmy Carter in 1996, HRH Prince Charles in 2000, HRH Prince Andrew in 2004, and Mick Jagger in 2005.
Today, Cara Lodge blends timeless elegance with modern-day comfort. It’s a place where creaking floorboards meet contemporary convenience, and where the warmth of family-style hospitality makes every guest feel at home. As a heritage building, please note: we do not have elevator access.
In 2025, Cara Lodge was proudly named Hotel of the Year by the Tourism and Hospitality Association of Guyana (THAG), our third win in just five years. This recognition reflects our ongoing commitment to service, heritage, and the uniquely Guyanese experience we provide.
Whether you’re drawn by history or here on business, you’ll find a stay at Cara Lodge to be as memorable as it is comfortable.
