Top Charles Darwin Research Station Hotel Reviews

Hotel Cucuve

10/10 Excellent

"This is one of the best properties in the city. The bathroom was the best I saw while visiting the other shops/businesses. The staff is great; they provide a home cooked breakfast everyday and it is a spread for only one person cooking it! Your AC works great, only the room is AC. The bathroom is open air. There is no elevator and the the rooms are either on the 2nd floor or 3rd floor FYI. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in the Galapagos. This place offered great luxury and enhanced our stay in the islands."

Galapagos Verde Azul

10/10 Excellent

"La amabilidad y calidez del personal. Entrada y salida independiente. Habitación amplia, limpia y cómoda. La ubicación es excelente, cerca de todo."

Hotel Villa Escalesia Galapagos

10/10 Excellent

"I cannot say enough great things about this hotel. First I have to mention the staff: they were by far the friendliest, most accommodating, helpful hotel staff I have ever encountered. They went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and taken care of in any way possible, without being overbearing in the slightest. The laundry service was very convenient and perfectly timed during our trip. The hotel breakfast was some of the best meals we had during the whole trip. The beds were more comfortable than the other 3 hotels we stayed in. They constantly refilled fresh water bottles in the bathroom and bedroom, which felt like such a luxury, and the aluminum bottles provided saved the day multiple times. The hotel location was most convenient because it seems secluded but still right in the middle of the action. The pool and spa were a relief after big adventures, and the view is gorgeous. You will not regret staying here."

Ikala Galapagos Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I highly recommend this hotel. It is very clean and staff is very friendly. The air conditioning worked great and we were very comfortable in our rooms. The rooftop restaurant is very good and is very scenic. We had breakfast there and wished we would have had dinner there too. Good location. Highly recommend."
