Top Charles Darwin Research Station Hotel Reviews

Hotel el descanso del Guia

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was very clean and the rooms are air conditioned; the staff did a wonderful job and we always saw them working around the property. Also very helpful. We only used the hot tub but the pool looked clean and clear. There is an exercise room with table tennis and places to lounge. Breakfast was made fresh every day. The hotel is set back from the touristy area (5 minute taxi ride, very cheap and taxis are easy to get) and there were quite a few roosters but they didn’t bother us. We also walked into town often and there is a local shop next to the hotel as well as a small brewery nearby. We really enjoyed our stay!"
