Our group of 7 people stayed at the San Vicente for 4 nights. It was relatively clean, but the bed sheets were all pilled and scratchy. The breakfast was not very good - insipid looking fruit and cold eggs. The biggest problem we had was that no one seemed to care whether we were there or not, unless they were... More

The owners of Hotel San Vicente Galapagos apparently are associated with La Laguna Hotel. I state this because La Laguna diverted me to San Vicente. I was celebrating a big "0" birthday and my sister was flying-in from Chile to greet me. My flight was 4 hours late, requiring me to miss the last ferry fr P. Ayora to Isabela.... More

I have tried to post my comment before, but forgot to verify this on my email! - We stayed on San Vicente 4 nights for our Galapagos adventure tour set up by an agany in Quito. We were pretty satisfied by the services in the hotel. Breakfast was the best of all - it was sort of a buffet-style and... More

Decent hotel with really delicious food. The service is really good, and they organise fantastic day tours with great guides. My room smelled really mouldy and the be linens was stained. That really put me off. It's also not on the beautiful beach which is a pity,because it's a great beach. About a 5 min walk to the beach. Food... More

Exactly what we needed- simple rooms, outside sitting areas and relaxed environment. Rooms were nice and clean, close to the centre, good breakfast and they offered dinner with soup and a main course that was much cheaper than other restaurants in town. Staff were helpful with booking tours, this is a great place to enjoy Isabela.

I first stayed at this hotel 6 or 7 nights, and I was so thrilled with everything about the place I came back a week later to spend a few days more. The rooms are perfectly clean and cosy, the food is of very good quality (thank you Mario!), you can eat inside or outside in a nice courtyard, and... More

This is a nice hotel and I had my meals here as well. The room was very good and the shower had the best showerhead I have ever experienced. The food was great as well-buffet style with different meats and vegetables. I would say the only bad thing is the rooster out back. Understandably there are roosters all across the... More

The hotel is owned by Nature Galapagos and Ecuador, it is of average standard, but it is sufficient. If you go with Nature Galapagos and Ecuador tour, the hotel is very convenient as they are the starting point for almost every tour. There is a convenience store or supermarket nearby and everything is within walking distance. Food was nice on... More

Stayed here for two nights as part of a tour. Unfortunately I believe I had one of the smallest rooms located by the kitchen, which was a little noisy at times. The room itself was clean and functional as was the bathroom. There was no view to speak of as the window looked out onto the wall of the neighbouring... More
