Good location close to the harbour. Good breakfast, ok rooms and the pool area looked nice but we didn’t use it. Great hotel if you want to be close to the morning boats to the other islands.

We enjoyed our stay here during a land based tour of various islands around the Galapagos. Enjoyed the pool and bar area after the days adventures. Close to the hustle and bustle of the Main Street without being right in the middle of it. My only complaint was WiFi wasn’t good in the rooms. Overall I would recommend

Lovely property in an excellent location right off the main pier. Nice pool and hot tub area with clean well air conditioned rooms. They use Elon Musks Starlink so the Wifi is great! Enjoyed omelettes, fruit, toast etc for breakfast and drinks at the bar. I recommend this hotel and would stay here again.

A hidden gem that is situated a short walk from the main avenue and activities area. Very accomodating, courteous and helpful. Great breakfast to start your mornings, with custom omelets and variety of cereals. Of course coffee and juices. Then when returned from tours, there is a adult bar, attended and games and a lounge area and pool. I would recommend and reserve again in future.

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Ninfa for 5 days with a group of 7 including kids. The service and cleanliness were very good. Breakfast was great each morning. The location can’t be beat. It’s so close to shopping, dining, pier for tours and supermarket and ATM. The property is gated so it felt very secure. Would recommend it. We were there on New Year’s Eve and the celebrations outside were very loud but that was understandable and expected.

Excelente hotel, céntrico y muy cerca malecón y puerto, habitaciones grandes y limpios, buen desayuno. Personal muy atento y profesional, especialmente Marco con buenas orientaciones para visitar la isla, igual muy amables Diana en la recepción y Jesús en el bar. Solo el internet es deficiente, señal débil e interrumpido (explicaron que así es en gran parte de la isla).

The location is the best, the staff is ok but room had not vent in the bathroom which is unacceptable, the AC did not work well, the breakfast buffet did not have coffee, just colored water with not flavor at all. I booked the hotel online and I wasn't advise that next to my room there will be construction work the hotel told me at check in🙄

You should not stay this hotel unless you like being cheated. The Expedia’s page said that Wi-Fi was available in all rooms; however, we can access the Internet only around the reception. I had to join a meeting during the vacation and needed Wi-Fi in a room, which is why I chose the hotel. Transportation cost from the airport was also different. In short, ad-fraud.
