Antigua- beautiful colonial town with a great market and wonderful schools. Quetzaltenango (Xela) - bigger, busier town with some world class sites - hot springs etc nearby. Both places have some of the best Spanish schools / teachers in Latin America. Be sure to opt for the "homestay" with a family, you'll get to practice much more. One of the most important things to do is to not speak, think, or read English for the month or two that you're there. ... Easier said than done, but it can be done. And it can be done much, much more easily in Xela than in Antigua.
