2/10 Poor

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.

The staff is very friendly, even though I could not understand much in spanish, we were able to use Google translate to communicate. The accommodations are really nice for a great price, and all the rooms have a nice view and are walkable to the main street with food and shops.

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.

Definitely wouldn’t book it again and risk being let down on arrival by being told just 1 room available after booking 2, then having to find a room in another hotel.

The property was near to restaurants and up one end of town. Unfortunately the door to the balcony did not lock, the TV did not work and the wifi kept cutting out. The manager was very helpful and the breakfast was great. Room was clean and comfortable.

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.

Clean, well-maintained and quiet. Eduardo was accommodating when needed, and friendly. The room has a good sized balcony with a hammock, although I spent little free time in the room as there is much to see and do on the island. I would stay here again. Thank you, Eduardo!

I did not like instant coffee for breakfast. It was served in a pot, alluding to it being real coffee but it was instant. Not a fan. Especially in a country known for coffee.

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!

“Ocean view room” without ocean view. Without working wifi. With manager that promised to change my room and then forgetting about it. The only good things are location and some how breakfast.

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.
