Situé un peu à l’écart du centre ville, à 5 minutes à pieds des restaurants et commerces. Les chambres sont assez sales, ainsi que les linges (draps et serviettes) la climatisation très bruyante et dans la douche il faut attendre 5 minutes pour avoir de l’eau chaude et encore, il s’agit d’un mince filet d’eau. Un très méticuleux nettoyage serait à réaliser également dans les parties communes (patio) Le petit déjeuné est ok.

Personnel was very welcoming and helpful. Location was good, close to the center, but far enough to be quiet. Every floor has a nice terrace with a view on the ocean, chairs and hammocks. Included breakfast was quite good, with fresh fruits, eggs, toasts, juice and coffee. Room was comfortable. My only complain would be the cleanliness of the bathroom.

Très bonne situation, les hôtes sont charmants et Edouardo parle français et nous a gardé les bagages pendant 3 jours le temps de visiter les autres îles. Difficile d’avoir de l’eau chaude pour la douche et un taxi même s’ils passent pas loin. Petit déjeuner sans intérêt.

Honest review! Could have been three or four stars but owner tried to screw us around. Travelling with my wife, three-year-old and Mom. Booked a three bed room, and even called a month earlier to clarify for sure the booking was for a room with three beds and he said yes. After paying for the room, where he seemed to not know how to use his credit card machine (telling me that he uses the tap function for $1000 transactions)…… and I had to help him by showing him how to insert the card??? Should’ve been the first hint….. He took us up to the room, opened the door, put some of our luggage in there and showed me the room with two beds….. I said to him, we are supposed to have three beds, and he responded, and I quote “you can accommodate can’t you”…… and he went on to say it’s not that big of a deal. I couldn’t even believe it….. after he charged us for our triple room price, which was substantially more than the double room. I said to him, you charged us for a three bed room, that is what we paid for, we will NOT accommodate for you. After he saw that we would not accommodate his request he showed us the room next to it, which was ready to go and had three beds and was much bigger! He completely tried to give us the wrong room and resell the more expensive triple room, not cool! It was obvious to us that he had done this to others before and gotten away with it. Beware of this guy.

While we had a great stay at the Royal Galapagos, I would not book on Expedia again with them. Upon arrival they did not have our reservation written in their paper booking system and we had to have the front desk worker call the owner to discuss the problem. Luckily he spoke decent English and we could get to the bottom of it. They had an extra room or we may have been in a really tough situation. Overall, the property is very safe, breakfast was delicious, and it is convenient to everything you will need.

Hotel from hell.
Unfortunately it is a building site. I was ill in bed for 3 days. First two day contract angle grinder and gammer noise was on all day. On my complaint second day it was less. On top of the owner left the place unsupervised with the house keeper. She could not speak a word of english. All night corridor extremely bright light was left on. No one on site to address the issue as the house keeper left premises 7 pm. There was no one there till next day 6 am.

Take your business elsewhere
The manager made me move rooms to make room for incoming guests, even though I had booked for more nights. When i tried to decline he told me my other option was to leave and find another property. Very unprofessional. Also, after 3 nights i left a towel on the floor expecting it to be changed and instead they just hung the same towel up. There are lots of choices in San Cristobel. Anything is better than here.

Good location. Shame about the management.
My issue with this place was with the owner/manager. When i checked in he said "You must pay me immediately", which i think he thought was funny, but it came across as agressive and arrogant. I had booked the suite and based on the photos, the room had a hammock in front of the room. He took me to the top floor and there was no hammock and when i asked he said i didn't get one because i was on the top floor. I asked to move to a lower floor to have the hammock which he agreed to, and i did not ask for the difference in fare even though my rate was higher than what I traded for. I decided to stay on San Cristobel longer, so i extended my stay and he made me move rooms because someone had booked the room he had me in and he had to give them my room because they booked it based on the picture. When I said that I had booked a room based on the picture as well but didn't get what i booked and then in actuality paid more for less, he just shrugged like it was not his fault. No customer service skills whatsoever. I stayed for a week and he treated me horribly. I would never return nor recommend this property.

The view, the hammocks, & Eduardo
The views and Eduardo make the Royal Galapagos Inn wonderful! The location is prime—on the edge of town with a 2-minute walk to the center. Breakfast was great. If you're lucky, maybe Eduardo will make you some of his delicious yucca bread. Laying & swinging on the deck hammock was some of my relaxed moments in the Galapagos! Make sure to check out the views from the rooftop deck. I hope to be back!

Great last leg of Galapagos adventure
My stay was amazing. The owner, Eduardo, is a very welcoming, positive and knowledgeable person. The hotel was perfect for my needs. Clean, simple and with a hammock on the balcony. My room had a couple of bulbs that didn't work and although I said it wasn’t a problem they were replaced the following day while the room was cleaned. Breakfasts were always a highlight! The location suited me too, away but not far from the center and closer to Darwin Bay than most.

We waited over an hour for check in. The air conditioner sounded like an airplane starting up so impossible to sleep with. There was drinking water in the lobby which was never open during the day. We were a block away from the beach but was more expensive to than many right on the beach. We had to pay up front but he was very hesitant about showing us the room first. The tv didn’t work. The worst hotel we have stayed in in our world travels!

Our family stayed for a week and was very happy. The owner was very helpful. He speaks a few languages, including English and French fluently. The location is the best in town, very close to downtown but not in downtown so it is not too noisy. It is also in walking distance to a nice beach, snorkeling place and a museum. Highly recommended.

Demolition zone ...AVOID!
This hotel has a great location right by the ocean and Edwardo was lovely but unfortunately that's as good as this place gets... This hotel is under major renovations and when we were here in July 2018 half the place was a construction zone. The balconies are raw concrete with wiring and steel reinforcement everywhere. I should mention that there were no walls on our 2nd story balcony...just the floor so you CAN NOT bring children here. The kitchen/dining area is the renovation hub with tools and supplies everywhere. The hammering and drilling starts at 730am, so no chance for a sleep in. OK now to the room: as I walked in one of the floor tiles went flying! The sheets were threadbare, stained with mildew and smelt musty. I could see the floral mattress through the thin sheets and I swear they had not been washed in a while (either the room had been unoccupied in months or they had not put fresh sheets on). There were even a few hairs on them LOL! I had to shake out the pillows which had a band of dirt (I think concrete dust from the renovations). We also had to clean our lovely plastic balcony furniture that was covered in concrete dust. This place was the absolute pits and I don't know how this can even be advertised on Hotels.com. It is just not right to sell accommodation that is under reconstruction and I will be making a formal complaint.

Mediorce room but got charged extra
The hostel is bare and it is going through renovation at the moment. We waited 30 mins at check in because the owner wasn't there when we arrived. He also charged us an addition of 12% tax even though the room rate has included this tax. The internet is not working probably but it is a problem everywhere on this island. However, all the necessity is met: clean sheet, clean towel, hot water, air conditioner, huge portion of breakfast.
